I was on the Limited home page looking for something else when this picture flashed by, and I had to go off to hunt for the product. After wearing the heck out of the Halogen long cardigan I bought at the last big Nordstrom sale (similar to this one), I’m considering more. I like the burgundy color (fun yet sedate), the wide hem and wide shawl collar, and the price: it’s $79.50 full price. It’s available in burgundy and cream, regular and petite sizes XS-XXL.

These weaning hormones swings are kicking my butt! We’re down to a few short nursing sessions at night. I know that this is the right decision, but I’m feeling sad. We’re not planning to have another child, so this is the end of my nursing days most likely.
How old were your kids when they switched to a toddler bed? My son will be 19 months when his sibling arrives this April, and around 22-24 months when the new baby will likely be ready for the crib. Is 22 months too small for the toddler bed? We have a hand me down crib and I can not get the pieces to turn it into a toddler bed anymore, so I’d like to pass the crib on to the baby and buy a new toddler bed rather than a new crib.
Any recommendations for a book on breastfeeding? I just picked up A Nursing Mother’s Companion from the library, and was thinking I’d buy it for reference if I liked it….but the introduction and sections on why nursing is best for the baby and why nursing is best for the mother kind of turned me off. Still planning on reading it through, but was wondering if anyone liked another book better.
Friends keep asking me if I am taking my one year old trick or treating/what she is dressing up as for Halloween. Is this a thing? She’s one! She doesn’t get it, nor can she eat candy! Do people do this?
HELP. Our 16-week-old has started rolling over in the past week (back to tummy, hasn’t figured out tummy to back yet) and — commensurate with that milestone and the requisite sleep regression that happens around this time — has just totally quit going back to bed at night. It’s been 5 nights and both my husband and I are DYING. It doesn’t help that we can’t swaddle her arms-in anymore, either.
Someone remind me how long these periods usually last? I feel like I’m losing my mind. We have two other kids, too, which complicates things.
Also: has anyone out there used Merlin’s Magic Sleep Suit? Seriously considering buying it if it could possibly give me any relief.
