I really love this blazer that is available in several size options, is in a stylish cut, and is machine washable! I also love the color offered — “Italian olive.” I like that it can play off of a cream colored pair of pants, or black, and it looks really cute with jeans as styled on the website. The open front with no button and the longer length look sleek, and I like three-quarter sleeves on blazers for comfort. I also love the longer, thinner lapels and think that this shape blazer would be flattering on any body type. It is available at Loft for $130. Three-Quarter Sleeve Open Blazer

Anyone else just over the nonstop winter sickness?
My hands are literally raw from handwashing, I’ve ditched my normal hippie dippy cleaners for clorox wipes, and nothing seems to help…
And my kids have been ‘healthier’ than others!!
I really want the pink version of this blazer.
I’m really struggling with something. Since having a baby (15 months ago), my sensitivity to reading news about atrocities/murders/cruelty has just skyrocketed. To the point where if I read a news story about something particularly egregious (especially involving a child) or even watch a tv show/movie involving something like that (like the show the Outsider on HBO), it really stays with me for a long time. I feel so much despair about the world I brought my kid into. I don’t think I suffer from clinical anxiety or depression but I do worry a lot about my daughter’s safety and my own. Does anyone else feel this way regularly?
This is such a basic question, but what do you do on weekend mornings? My kids are 1.5 and 5, and it seems like everyone is up and ready to go by 6:30 and then cranky and fighting by 8. My husband and I each try to sleep in or go to the gym one weekend day, so that leaves one parent trying to manage both kids. I realize this will get easier as my toddler becomes less of a maniac (and once the weather is not so awful), but right now, it seems like someone is always crying and we are trying to plow through until bedtime.
Anyone have success stories for a pregnancy with a initial low progesterone level? I’ve had one miscarriage at 13 weeks, one healthy baby, and two subsequent chemical pregnancies. During my healthy pregnancy I had an initial progesterone reading of 12. I took oral progesterone supplements and all was well.
I underwent unsuccessful fertility treatments during most of 2018 (primarily IUIs, no IVF), and started to give up on the idea of a second child. After some trying but not really trying, I got a positive home test result on Monday. Yesterday I went to the reproductive endocrinologist for some blood work, and while my HCG level was great (586), my progesterone was not (7.6). I’ve started the supplements (suppositories this time), and I go back for more blood work tomorrow to see if my levels are increasing appropriately.
This pregnancy feels more solid than the two chemical pregnancies, but of course I’m a bundle of anxiety because of the low progesterone level. Any reassuring stories would be wonderful.
Do any of you have a very skinny kid who is average height? My son is about to be 3. His 2T pants are all too short but also too big in the waist (he’s very small). He straight up can’t wear any of the Gap chinos we’ve been handed down. I’ve had some luck with the Children’s Place and Carter’s but all of those are now too short. Any tips or brands to try? Day care is folding his waistband under to hold his pants up. He has to be able to dress himself to use the bathroom so I can’t just buy a belt.
can you take two toddlers to an open house or is that considered rude? a more basic question – how exactly do open houses work? i recall going a few times with my parents as a kid, but that was ages ago.
For those of you that did sleep training using CIO, what age did you do it? I did CIO with my 1st kid at 6 months, worked really well. I now have a 12 week old who does not sleep at night and I’m at my wits end. Not sure I can wait until 6 months.
Anyone have advice on the City Mini? I have a three-month-old and have been using it with the pram attachment. That’s been great because she doesn’t love being strapped into her car seat for walks. But I’m wondering if it’s time to transition to using the regular stroller on a reclined setting. She has pretty good neck control.
