Welcome to MomBrain

Any moms have a good therapist they like who takes insurance? In austin tx but virtual is ok too!

Can be stateside or international, just want somewhere that’s fun for them with good safe kid activities and fun for the parents and grandparents. We’ve done 30A a few times and Cayman Islands last year and loved them all. We usually go for a week so somewhere where we won’t get bored after a few days.

Planning a Disney World Trip with the kids - when is the best time to go, places to stay and all the Do's and Don'ts!!!

Hi! We are looking to purchase a 3rd row SUV and would love advice! I had a highlander but have 3 kids, and car pool with sports so the trunk space was VERY limited! Would love to hear what others are driving and loving and why!

I want to know what your opinions are on all the different water filtration systems. Whole house system vs pitcher for your fridge vs fridge water filter vs stand alone Berkey filter. Whats the best considering prices and health benefits too.

Favorite podcasts?? I don’t want anything too heavy that uses a ton of brain power, but also don’t want real housewives numb out level. Something in between. I can learn but not have to focus too much.

Has anyone found success being screen-free in the evenings? Like...parents, kids, teens...everybody. We're all face-first in our phones once 5PM hits (guilty too) and missing out on the ONE time of day when we're all together. Tips to get everyone on board?

I previously used beauty counter. Would especially love if I could buy at ulta or Sephora. Thanks!! Also would really really love links 😬

Hi! Looking for a recommendation of a great front loading washer and drying- is there even such a thing as good ones anymore?!

I switched to top loader which worked great, but new house needs front loader again! Our old ones got so much mold in them and the clothes started to smell. HELP - because we all know there ain’t no time for not having a washer / dryer!!

What is the best tablet option these days? I know a lot of people have Amazon fire tablets (I don't find them user friendly), but open to them. Would love more info on certain models etc. .

In need of an easy breakfast option for my kids for school mornings. We are in a major rut and I need to change it up!

6 year old getting his tonsils out, please send all the tips!! How can we best prepare for this?!

My son has a fear of getting his blood drawn, mostly the fear is of the pain. Any tips or tricks?!

I’ve tried everything - sneaking them in, making them different ways, covering them in cheese, etc. I feel so guilty but is this normal and should I actually be worried? We did start a daily vitamin gummy which makes me feel slightly better.

Hi! My 5 year old cleans to self regulate. He’ll vacuum the car, make his siblings beds and during free time at school he likes to sweep. He feels so much better when things are tidy! And also feels very yucky when things are messy or dirty. He literally lugs our huge vacuum up the stairs on weekends and vacuums everything. Our car is the cleanest minivan a mom of 3 kids 5 and under has ever seen! I have two other kids (and he’s a twin) so I believe it’s just in his nature and hoping it’s not me, but at what point do I need to be concerned about OCD tendencies? Anyone else have kids obsessed with cleaning? Or have older children who grew out of this phase? No idea what to tag this lol

Looking for a good, affordable option for a smart watch to help me keep tabs on where my kids are. I have heard good things about the gizmo. Any suggestions welcomed!

I know nothing about Minecraft, but my daughter is obsessed with having this game on her iPad. My husband turned off chat feature etc. but I’m still uneasy. Is this game appropriate for a 1st grader? We limit iPad time to one day per week for specified amount of time.

First time mom here-I have a 7.5 month old who is generally a great sleeper and now I’m all worried her schedule will get messed up with the time change. What is y’all’s best idea on navigating daylight savings with kiddos since it is coming up next week? Thank yall in advance!

Our CC bill is always around 20k a month. This includes daycare and utilities. I feel like this is really high? We don’t spend extravagantly-is it really just this expensive to live?

Had to move my 2.5 year old into the toddler bed setting of his crib because he was hurting himself by climbing and falling out. Now he’s stoked on the new freedom and waltzes out of his room a million times. Last night we tried to get him down at 7:30pm but didn’t go to sleep (and we had to go back in each time) until 10pm when he finally let us rock him to sleep. The past year he’s gone down on his own in his crib, no fight. Any tips on what we can do to keep him in his bed and in his room so we can all get sleep? We’ve tried bargaining with him (he’s way too smart), we do the regular calming routine and everything.
