Weekend & Family Friday: Classic Feejays

For those of you who are jealous of your child’s footie pajamas, you’re in luck. These are adult sweatpants with foot coverings on the bottom. You can even fold back the footie part and wear them as regular sweatpants. Since my move to the suburbs and having a kid, I am spending a lot more time inside the house, and by virtue of that am on a hunt for warm, comfortable loungewear. I love this idea for cozy movie-watching days, as I don’t want my house slippers on the couch and also don’t want to wear socks all the time. Feejays are $39.98 at Amazon and at feejays.com. The company’s own site has more colors and sizes available (up to 4X) and is currently offering 15% off. Classic Feejays

lol nooooooooooooooooooooo
I am so perplexed by these. Maybe I’m just a messy cook but wouldn’t they get really grubby?
The appeal of footie pajamas is that my baby kicks his feet furiously and his socks cannot stand up to that kind of anti-sock activity. I do not suffer from that problem. :)
Postpartum pant recommendations? I had a C-section four weeks ago and I don’t feel ready for jeans yet, but need something I can wear out of the house.
What the… Feejays, for when you want your feet covered but don’t want to… put on socks?
How long did it take you to conceive? I’m under 30 and TTC and the one study I can find says that 68% of people conceived within 3 months. This is really freaking me out. It seems like even though they say it’s normal to take a year, it happens for the majority of people much sooner in that timeframe
I’m intrigued by the idea that foot coverings like this are somehow preferable to wearing socks. I . . . just don’t follow this at all. (And I deeply resent having to wear socks in the winter.)
We are Done Having Kids, so my sister is coming to pick up all of our baby stuff for her new baby that she’s expecting this year! Any tips for dealing with the bittersweet feelings?
I’m a little sad about letting go of the toys I so lovingly picked out for our girls’ first Christmas and the crib we excitedly ordered when we found out we were pregnant. I know rationally they are just things and the memories will remain, but it feels a little scary. I’m thinking I might take iPhone photos of our kids with the items as we say “goodbye” one last time.
How do you deal with emotional 4 year olds? My daughter entered a new phase where she will just break down in tears over anything and everything. “I don’t know where my water is” … or “I can’t fall asleep”… or “the brown crayon is too brown!” It’s so absurd. And I get it but I also lose my patience after about 2 min. Like the other day I picked her up from school and she had an epic melt down because she made a ‘plan’ that we would get pizza and I was making her go home to eat dinner. Is there some magic phrasing or redirection that works here? I get that she is feeling frustrated and doesn’t know how to deal but just ‘broadcasting’ that to her doesn’t seem to cut it and then I start to lose it.
My employer is enacting an excessive absenteeism policy. I am worried about it given that due to daycare closure and illness, I was only in the office for one full day in the last 7 workdays. I am home sick today. It’ll be fine, right?
I am lucky to be at an employer where I have a lot of leave and flexibility. But it is seriously starting to stress me out.
My son refuses to go to sleep unless we are in the room. We used to have a great routine where he would fall asleep on his own after the bedtime routine. If he was not ready to sleep, he would “read” for a few minutes before falling asleep. The nighttime routine had been set for sometime (he is almost 5). We cannot pinpoint a reason for the change nor can he articulate why he must have us in the room to fall asleep. This has been going on since before Christmas and we have been trying everything. If you have a unique idea that has worked for you, would you please pass it along? Thank you!
Gosh, has everyone seen this Evenflo Big Kid seat controversy? That is terrifying!
https://www.thecut.com/2020/02/will-there-be-an-evenflo-booster-seat-recall.html
I’m looking for matching bracelets for me and my five year old. Doesn’t have to be personalized – just matching would be fun for her. Any suggestions?
I found some from shop lemel that I like but looking for other ideas!
Did anyone’s kid bite them and not bite at school? My 2 year old has never been a biter but in the last couple of weeks she has been biting me (lightly). She doesn’t seem to be mad when she does, it seems to happen more when she’s excited or giggly. Is there any chance this won’t spill over to her behavior at school? We are working on using our words (I told her that when she wants to bite she should ask me for a specific teether she likes and I will get it for her and she can bite down on that as hard as she wants) and she has asked me for the teether a few times but also has bitten me a few more times, so it’s definitely not a perfect solution. Are there better ways of shutting this down fast? I have been doing a very stern “no” every time, but I tell her no too much in general so I don’t know that it has the impact it should. Last night I did a time out for the first time (just one minute in her room alone) but I’m not sure she really understood that it was a punishment.
Did any of you ladies opted for PGT where only one of you tested positive during carrier screen? I am a carrier for cystic fibrosis gene and my husband is not. Both of us feel like we should take care of it now with the knowledge and resources we have than passing the buck to future generation. I am also 36 and have been trying for two years without success and just went through first IUI two days back (suggestion is to do 3 IUI cycles and go to IVF). Going through it brought up all sorts of feelings and I am leaning towards going straight to IVF (skipping next IUI cycles) with PGT and transfer the embryos with normal gene.
