things you regret not including in your divorce decree

I don’t like TV, so the show must not be slow and hook me early on. Also a plus if it’s not 10 seasons long haha! Looking for a few good shows to watch with my husband —

Hi! I have a four year old and he has been in the Nuna Rava car seat. He is starting to complain about it being too small. When do you move to a booster seat vs a full car seat.

Hi!! My toddler gets toted around with two big brothers that play baseball. I’d LOVE your favorite toddler (boy) toys that keep them occupied!! Something I can pack and take along?! Thanks!!

Re: Non Toxic Sunscreens!

I am a huge Think Baby fan. It works well and there is something for everyone in the family.

My most recent obsession is Sky and Sol! It is so smooth and goes on like a lotion and does not leave a white tint (that my kids gripe about). I love that they use tallow, which is what makes it so smooth. It checks all my boxes as far as being clean, safe for our bodies and effective.

I wish I would have found this at the beginning of summer!

My kids love milkshakes but i'm looking to swap this Summer habit with a delicious protein shake. What are your favorites? My kid's fav flavor is cookies and cream. Thank you!!

This is SUCH a struggle because I was never taught about my hormones! And now at 34 I am learning about my own body!

I wanted to share with the Mombrain community an upcoming event in Austin on Friday, May 17th at Vintage Book Store about this topic!

There's a woman named Bailey who wrote a book and is on a mission to give girls a better foundation by providing hormone education early!

She'll be selling copies of her books + hosting a discussion about this topic but she also does 1:1 coaching!

Does anyone have any helpful tips for routines and things that help you keep your life together as the cruise ship director of the home? I feel like I’m organized but this may just not exist and all I can do is the best I can do 😂 husband is great and I can give him direct instruction but any tips to help maintain some semblance of routine/organization with all facets of life?

We are having trouble getting pregnant with our third which is bizarre bc 1&2 were not difficult whatsoever. It’s really heartbreaking and completely unexpected. It’s grief but also trying to remain hopeful. How do I manage this rollercoaster?

I dread and hate the idea of packing school lunches for the next decade+. My kids are 2 and 5. My oldest can't have: soy, egg, peanut and tahini in her lunch due to allergies in the class (fml). Any favorite Pinterest links or accounts you follow on IG for lunch ideas?

How do we block YouTube on all devices including TV? It’s so weird and my kids all end up there even with rules. We can’t take the tv away completely bc we use it sometimes while we are getting tasks done.

Really been enjoying a gummie to unwind in place of alcohol (no hangover!), but the problem is many leaving me raiding my cabinets. Anyone know the best gummy out there that doesn’t give the munchies?

Hi!

So many of my fiends have added Chaga Mushrooms to their morning routine after working with a functional medicine doctor. What does this help with? Also looking for a functional expert to chime in on other things I could add to my routine (electrolytes, trace minerrals power pack, omegas??). What else do we need to function as a Power Mom these days lol.

Hi!

How do we avoid our kids becoming brats?? We live in a nice area of. town, but I want to avoid them growing up thinking its normal to have aviator nation and lulu lemon in elementary school!! Also, my girls do WANT that stuff since all their friends have it. Has anyone successfully navigated these conversations successfully??

Hi!

Has anyone. had a tummy tuck? Good or bad experience, pros and cons? Would love all feedback!!

I know you love your husband and so do I. I’m not considering getting a divorce but sometimes I wonder if I married the right person. Did I get married too young? Idk, I love him I just don’t know if it would be different if we met later in life.

Would LOVE any tips on things you wished you would have done differently / things that you recommend navigating this new world of dating someone with kids!

Hi!

We are in the process of buying a house, and need to access the mold situation due to my daughters respiratory stuff. Anyone have any experience with this process, or Austin based recommended companies to work with?

Does anyone have experience as a fractional CCO or communications consultant? I'm really struggling with a demanding, in-office job and want to try to set myself up for a more flexible working environment when my oldest enters kindergarten in a year. Would love insight/experience!

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
