WWYD. My daughter is a sports loving kid who is…destined for intramurals. She loves to okay, isn’t a superstar, but is a good team player.
She wanted to get better at basketball and I signed her up for a clinic which, as it turns out, is all boys. I emailed in advance and they said there were a handful of other girls, but…there are not.
It’s grades 3-5. She’s 4th grader. She has about 10 boys from her class/grade in the clinic but she’s not the kind of kid that hangs out with the boys generally. “Some of them are not all that annoying but most of them are.”
I’m here now and she’s clearly not happy being the only girl. Short of recruiting a pal, which I am also doing, should I let her quit?
I’m watching her play and she’s having fun despite herself. There are 3 high school girls working as coaches and they are doting on her, really trying hard to make her feel comfortable in a gym full of boys.
I can’t tell if I should just let her quit (I’m sure that’s what she will say she wants to do) or encourage her to do one or two more sessions. There are only six and one is on her bday and I’ve already bought her (surprise) preseason ball tix for that day so she’ll miss it.
Thoughts?
I must be too old for these shoes because to me they look like Trotters or some other frumpy grandma shoe. I suppose they are meant to be worn by those on the cusp between late millennial and early GenZ, with a boxy cropped t-shirt that shows a sliver of flabby belly above high-waisted rigid jeans with big thighs and tapered legs. In other words, the underemployed waitresses at the local corner bar and grill filled with giant TVs. No thank you.
im about to tell my work I am expecting (I’m near the end of my 16th week). It’s my first and I am nervous!! Send me your good vibes please!
I’m so excited right now that I just have to share: I just discovered that the daycare we’ll be sending our infant to has a bike path option to get to it! I thought there was no way biking would be possible, but it turns out there is a spur off the main bike trail (a rail-to-trail) that goes right by the daycare. Once our kid is old enough, this would be AMAZING. We were already dreading the very trafficky drive…
Newly Postpartum Nightgown Rec’s:
I’m officially to the point where I probably should have a hospital bag packed for baby #2. Due date is later this month.
Any recommendations on dark nightgowns for wearing at the hospital, post delivery?
I had my oldest 4 years ago and had good luck with the Stars Above button down nightgowns from Target at the time.
I was looking at buying a new one last weekend and the material feels different and is also really see through.
I’ve looked on Amazon a bit, and most of the reviews were pretty mixed about quality.
I’m hoping someone has a favorite they’re wanting to recommend.
Has anyone experienced emerging symptoms of ADD in their mid-40s, and if so how did you address? I read that perimenopause and menopause can make symptoms more obvious due to dropping estrogen levels. I’m not “officially” perimenopausal according to my not-very-sympathetic GP but things are starting to get irregular and I just having such difficulty focusing lately.
Returning to work after a 12 week maternity leave and I have 1 week where I can ease back in, but need to give my boss a schedule. All in person, normal hours are 8-5, baby will be in daycare. What would be most helpful? I’m thinking starting at 9 am the first few days and leaving at 3 or 4 the rest of the week.
Can anyone recommend a choline supplement? I don’t think I’m getting enough in my diet and I’d like to hit the targets during this pregnancy. My prenatal vitamin doesn’t have that much in it either.
Has anyone purchased Kizik shoes for your kid (or yourself)? How have they held up? Are the soles rubber or that foam-like substance on the All in Motion shoes that my kids run through so quickly? Thanks in advance!
These look like jazz shoes! If this is trendy, I’ll bust out my high school capezios from the back of storage… A 5, 6, 7, 8!
Crowd sourcing: Good stories about ST progress!
DD will be 3 later this year, is only speaking in sentences when prompted, and is often hard to understand (e.g. “pumpkin” sounds like “mumkin”, “Water” sounds like “wawa” or “mama”). We are re-starting ST later this month with a private provider as she technically wasn’t delayed enough for early intervention. FWIW – the ST’s eval a few months back showed she was on the lower end of normal and would benefit from services :)
Anyone want to help me shop for family photos? I’m looking for dresses or interesting tops (not matching, but ideally coordinated) for me and my 5 year old daughter. DH will wear jeans and a sweater in a color that coordinates with our outfits. I prefer an Old Navy/Target/JCF price point but can go higher if necessary. It may be 80 degrees outside when we take the photos, but we’re dressing for fall weather so no rufflepuff or things like that.
If you (or sisters, friends, etc) had Covid during pregnancy and baby was healthy; can you please share your story? I’m sure they exist but google is only returning the bad outcomes and I’m nervous.
Has anyone ordered from Baltic Born? I have a black-tie gala to attend 10/20 (when I’ll be 20 weeks) and looking at the Olivia Maxi, Nova Shimmer, Layla Tulle Maxi.. I love Sachin & Babi styles, but way out of budget. Any other suggestions welcome!
Speaking of these shoes (and no, I don’t see *that*), are they really a no go if you don’t have narrow feet? I was looking for new flats and these are kind of what I had in mind but my feet definitely run wide at the toe box.
