- The concept of “backup care” is so stupid…
- I need tips on managing employees in BigLaw who have to leave for daycare pickup…
- I’m thinking of leaning out to spend more time with my family – how can I find the perfect job for that?
- I’m now a SAHM and my husband needs to step up…
- How can I change my thinking to better recognize some of my husband’s contributions as important, like organizing the shed?
- What are your tips to having a good weekend with kids, especially with little kids? Do you have a set routine or plan?
I just found out I didn’t get promoted. Again. But my work is “fantastic,” as both a manager and a contributor. Ugh. I didn’t do enough outside my world at the firm (not law) for it. So annoyed and unmotivated.
One of the ways it was suggested I better position myself was to volunteer for a truly thankless role that basically means I’m an investment banker hours for 2 years with no change to pay. During a pandemic, with early elementary age kids who are in virtual school.
I hate corporate America. And I’m so brainwashed that I know I’m supposed to be thankful I’m employed. I’m too old for this crap.
I can’t vent anywhere else …
Kat and Kate – could we get these posts up earlier? It took until around 11:30 today for the moms site to have a new post, whereas the main site had 100+ comments already. I think a lot of us tend to check more earlier anyway, and the afternoon slows down so would appreciate an early start. Thanks for all your work!
Hi mom internet friends! I’m just writing with a short update – I am the commentator who found out she was surprised pregnant last March as locked down had started. And I was 41 with an 8-year-old. I had concerns about going forward with pregnancy at this age and also covid. I appreciated all the support I got about each decision being okay. I also appreciated the folks who noticed that I did seem excited about a baby. Well, I didn’t anticipate how much my 8-year-old would relish being a big brother and how much my husband and I would enjoy doing this again. She just turned two weeks and she’s great! I definitely have some weepiness that is partial hormones and partially being frustrated about spending my maternity leave in lock down and not seeing grandparents for now. But our little family unit is doing great and I’m so glad she’s here.
What’s your travel sleeping arrangements for toddlers after they outgrow the PNP? Headed to a vacation rental house soon and not sure what to do with my almost 3 year old. The house has a child’s room with bunk beds but I’m not sure she could safely sleep in a regular bed. At home she sleeps in a crib converted to a toddler bed, so it’s very low to the ground if she falls out (which she has a few times). Do I have to buy an inflatable toddler mattress? Can I just bring her regular crib mattress and put it in the floor or is that too bare bones?
are magnatiles and picasso tiles interchangeable? and what about brio trains with melissa & doug or learning resources trains?
