Welcome to MomBrain

I think we’re a little young for Harry Potter, any recommendations on chapter books to read to kids at bedtime (or have them read). Our kids like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. TIA!

I've been a stay at home mom for the past 6+ years, married for 10 and always relied on my husbands job. I want to start making my own money, saving for trips, bathroom remodel, nice jewelry etc. Where can I find a job that allows me to juggle the house work (laundry, meals, cleaning, drop off, pick up, after school classes etc) and actually make some money? IS THIS A UNICORN I'M LOOKING FOR?

Hey! Does anyone else’s child have night terrors when over tired?!? Or intense and alarming fever dreams?!? Do I need to talk to our pediatrician?!? He describes weird things ab his eyes and distorted vision when we discuss the next morning.

Ozempic, Mounjaro, wegovy, I don’t really care. I had a coupon last year and it ran out so I’m open to compounding, telehealth whatever! Aiming to not spend a gazillion dollars

I'm never on the mood...
I ordered from amazon - Foria Awaken Arousal Oil. It's designed to get you in the mood, it's not magic but definitely helps. Try it 10-15 minutes before intimacy. it aims to enhance sensation, relaxation and prometes climax. Smells great!

My 2yo only wants to be held most often. It's exhausting especially when I want to make food or a meal or just get anything done. She has older siblings so does have entertainment (lol), and I'll set up playdough or a coloring project for her. But looking for any other tips or suggestions!

College is far off for my kids but I know we need to save up some serious money for it one day. What is the best method for saving for college??

My almost three year old still asks for milk before bed, and 2 out of 5 nights he'll wake up asking for milk. I'm afraid he'll be full of cavities any day now. Has anyone been through something similar?

My youngest son comes into our bed every night around 3am. We let him sleep with us the rest of the night- I'm too tired to get up and walk him back to bed every night. This has been happening for about a year. He also has a lot of trouble falling asleep without one of us laying with him until he doses off. He has expressed that he really hates sleeping alone. We have 3 boys (11,8 & 5) and they all have their own rooms. Any tips?! Would love for him to not come into our bed!

My sons birthday is August 31st and the cut off is September 1 for kindergarten.

Has anyone done the cat and jack return at target? Does the condition of the clothes matter? Do they have to be styles from within a year?

I think that there’s so much going on around, so I love to listen to podcasts that can make me laugh or listen to easy to hear stories.

What’s your favorite?

What are the gifts you have given to your kids or other children that they absolutely loved and got a lot of use out of? I’m tired of getting junk that is touched once and put aside.

Hi!

I've never tried mushrooms, but I am seeing all the hype about how Moms these days are turning to mushrooms instead of alcohol. Would love to hear others feedback, as well as where do I start?

Obviously, need a reliable source where to get them as well as the types. I don't want to hallucinate or anything!

Coming from a mama who's never dabbled in them and JUST curious!
