  • Pediatrician - help choosing?!
    J jamaicanmecrazy

    I would agree all those points matter when looking at a pediatrician. We go to Dr.Wheelock in westlake and she checks off on a lot of the points above, but is lacking on the "same day appointment" and you typically only see NPs on sick visits. That being said, her holistic view of things outweighed all of those negatives. A lot of moms also love modern pediatrics because they come to your home!


  • Do I hold my June Baby Back for Kindergarten?
    J jamaicanmecrazy

    Our son is born in May and we decided not to hold back. He's currently in first grade now, and doing just find academically! I had a teacher tell me that if I held him back he would be bored and get himself into trouble. IF he was not right on track academically I would feel different, but he's not lagging behind at all. That being said, you will notice the difference in sports at the young ages, but it will all even out eventually! Lastly, I feel like in today's society a challenge and not being the oldest, tallest, fastest etc. will prepare him for the real world. ALL of this to say, that academics were NOT an issue at all so that helped our decision.


  • Upgrading engagement ring thoughts?

    How thoughtful and considerate of you! My husband gave me an additional band for our 5yr and I typically just wear my bands and keep my ring in the safe for special occasions. How about keeping the stones and rearranging for a refreshed look?


  • How do you do it all?

    Such a good question and tale as old as time. My answer: You don't.
    If you're working then you have to outsource. Hire someone to fold your laundry and clean up the kitchen a couple times a week, out source lawn care, grocery shopping etc
    This is the only way that I have found that it's manageable. I absolutely do not want to spend the time with my kids frantically trying to stay afloat...I doubt any of us do. It is expensive to hire help, but it's priceless for the sanity saving aspect.
    You just simply cannot do two full time jobs. At least, I haven't been able to!


  • Tamiflu for my toddler- to take or not?!
    Camryn-MomBrainC Camryn-MomBrain

    Previously we've never used tamiflu but felt it was necessary this year due to personal circumstances in our family. My three kids have not had any issues and the flu A positive kid only had a fever for 24 hours and the other 2 did not get the flu.
    I totally understand your concerns, it's historically been my concern too. Fortunately my kids did okay!

    There is a company called The Mom Project that specializes in placing moms in flexible roles. There are additional filters such as "part time", remote only, contract vs salary etc I had a friend who is an attorney find her current position through their website. I love the concept! Hire more moms!!

    Here is their website! https://work.themomproject.com/about?utm_medium=ppc&utm_source=adwords&utm_campaign=&utm_term=&hsa_acc=8127401061&hsa_ver=3&hsa_mt=&hsa_src=x&hsa_kw=&hsa_net=adwords&hsa_ad=&hsa_cam=21772735398&hsa_tgt=&hsa_grp=&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAnKi8BhB0EiwA58DA4dPJVkMPuAiv5mSgEgzYvEZD7RGg0dxEa2yIobxt6RakYMPY6cqBehoCMwQQAvD_BwE

    @SNHOLLI Great tips, especially love that you've seen a difference in parenting. I hadn't thought of that but makes perfect sense.


  • Is Mufasa the movie kid appropriate?
    Camryn-MomBrainC Camryn-MomBrain

    I was told from a good friend that it's appropriate for kids but there are some intense parts but nothing that would prevent from taking kids. Sorta vague prob doesn't help that much, sorry!
