Welcome to MomBrain

Hi! Looking for the best swimsuit to suck in my postpartum csection pooch. Wish I was asking for a friend…

Hey moms, the former Pikopye's Town space off S. Lamar is ready to be taken over. Unfortunately the business was mismanaged and closed a month-ish ago. The Lakeway location is owned independently from this one.
The opportunity is to buy the furniture, fixtures and equipment currently in the space, taking over the lease, etc.
There are business manuals + computer and POS software that were left behind so you could continue operating pretty soon. I think there is a LOT of upside to this business, though, and could be sooo fun for a local Austin fam.

Lease Term: 36 months Free Rent: 2 months gross rent ($23,042)

If there's interest I'll link a Google Doc with the details for who to contact to tour the space.

Does anyone have any tips for poison ivy? Other than hydrocortisone and Benadryl (oral and gel) as none of this is helping much!

Hi! Looking for recommendations on great vacation spots. Family friendly, as our kids are 3, 6 and 8. We were looking into Bahamas, Mexico, but open to anywhere. Looking to go in July timeframe. Not looking for 30A or Destin, done that and feel that its too crowded these days.

Would love recs on places, hotels etc.

Best protein bar/snack for busy ladies on the go?!? Which brand? Which flavor? Cleanest ingredients would also be great!

Our 4yr old son was recently diagnosed with autism. We are processing and we know it will be okay and fine etc but it's a lot of "now what"....what are next steps? We feel paralyzed

What are we washing our workout clothes in?!?!?!?!?

I have vaccinated my 6 year old fully and delayed vaccinating my 1 year old. I honestly would like to hear both sides, what makes you pro vax or what makes you anti vax?

I would like to see both sides to make the decision i find best for me and my child. Thank you!

Peed while the mattress cover was being washed from being peed on…..
How do I clean this?

Helpppppp before I actually lose my mind.

How regular are we, ladies?!? 💩💩💩 How often is too often and how little is too little?!? Is once a day sufficient?!? Any tips to keep things moving?!?

I know tongue and lip tie releases are performed on babies quite often. Does any one have any experience/feedback on this with a younger child having this done? My 5 yo needs both.

I’m looking for somewhere with a ton of experience and expertise! Any recs?

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!

Does anyone’s husband understand that sex / sexual attraction for the woman starts with emotions and the minute they walk into the house?! I would love my husband to ask me out, engage with me/have a conversation etc and then it’s all fair game later and I am much more into it. Trying to navigate how to show him this?!

Hi! Does anyone have a bedding/sheets that they love?? In the market and looking for recommendations. I am a warm sleeper, so something that is not hot would be a PLUS!

Any recommendations for laser hair removal in Austin? This postpartum mom wants to start it! I feel like there are so many places and it’s overwhelming!

Hey team,

I currently work from home for a title company. What I do is a little “nichey” and am not necessarily looking to stay in the industry. While I do have some flexibility and autonomy I’m not challenged whatsoever and there’s no upward mobility in this role. Add in a funky housing market and I’m simply not making enough money to support our family. I’m looking for something new and don’t know where to start. I need and want flexibility with two young kids but also want a promising, fulfilling career path. Preference to working from home/hybrid. I’m open to looking to new industry. My career trajectory has been more of a jungle gym than a straight line but my experience ranges from nonprofit, design industry and now title industry. Would love to network with any of you that might have some experience with this!

We are hiring an after school nanny for a few hours every day. Do you offer things like guaranteed hours, PTO, sick days, etc.? I want to make sure we're being fair and this is an attractive part-time job opportunity, but also child care is expensive AF and I don't want to spend extra dollars if that's not the standard.

Hoping to lose 10lb before summer!! Aka.. two months. What’s the best way to get in shape quickly and naturally without weight loss meds?! I tried a juice cleanse but I don’t have that in me anymore! Too many kids to keep up with and need to eat 🤪

Hi!

I am wondering how does everyone decide on a pediatrician?! Questions to ask?!

I am in central Austin, and looking to make a switch to a new pediatrician!
