Going from 2 kids to 33 kids is wonderful and wild. Honestly people will try to convince you to have the 4th as they say it’s easier with an even number. Once you have 3 kids you just give up control, and live a little more freely!

7 year old - anger and toneOur 7 year old boys anger and tone has gotten so awful and disrespectful. HELP!! What has worked or is working for everyone?!

Appropriate age to stop bathing kids togetherWe are okay with being naked often in our family. That said we also talk openly about privates are only for you etc. if someone in the family felt uncomfortable, or things were starting to be said I would prob respect everyone’s modesty and stop.

Oral sex honestyThis is one of those things where the time, mindset and everything else has to be perfect. It helps for me to be immediately post shower, zero kids around or to be heard and my mind really needs to be shut off/ not wandering at all.

Affordable family ski trip?!Is there such a thing?! We have young kids all under 7 and can’t fathom spending the outrageous prices that vail and other places are offering!

Mourning Being “Done”Totally can relate, and honestly I feel like how do you know when you are truly done?!
I remind myself financially that more kids are harder, as well as leave it in gods hands. I’ve had a friend get pregnant with a vasectomy, so at the end of the day it’s out of our control!!

Companies that are Pro Work Life Balance/FamilyLook for companies that are HQ in Australia, Canada etc. sad to say it, but they treat their mothers way better!! heard really good things about Canva, Cisco, any large established tech company usually has great benefits!

Toddler bedtime adviceCould not agree more, 3 years old is ROUGH... we also have the hatch light so my daughter atleast is well aware of when it is time to wake and when its not. Honestly we got pretty desperate over here.. whoever sleeps through the whole night gets a shot of whip cream in the morning. Its pretty rough when your siblings get the whip cream and you don't. Lots of praise when the whip cream was successfully achieved!!! -- just a mom surviving lol

4th birthday party ideas in Austin, TXA good ole park/backyard situation always works with a bounce house and another activity like face paint or some type of animal thing. For animals look into Tiny tails. Silly sparkles is also good for kids entertainment (magician etc).
If your kids into super hero’s simply having his fav super hero come and they do games etc. We did that and bounce house and was super easy!!

Leaving Workforce/ SAHM - advice!@hot_mess_express I love this point of view. Someone once told me the same thing - just because I am working now doesn't mean I will be working when they are in middle school or older when they might even need me MORE!

Leaving Workforce/ SAHM - advice!Thank you EVERYONE!! This is such great advice, and also gave me lots of ideas (for example outsourcing my household tasks) - hadn't thought of that one!! @WorkingMamaReset - LOVE this super helpful thank you!!!

Leaving Workforce/ SAHM - advice!Hi! Looking for advice and experience of people who have gone through similar situation. I have been working since my kids were born, and my oldest is 8 now. I am having trouble finding the balance and motivation to continue working this high stress (tech start up) job, and miss out on my kids younger ages.
Anyone have experience giving up their high paying careers for either part time or staying home?
Scared of the adjustment financially and not having any career at all.

Melatonin-free sleep vitamins for kids and teens?We love magnesium oil every night we rub on the bottom of their feet and down their spine. This is a great non toxic brand we love: https://www.rowecasaorganics.com/products/magnesium-cream-4-oz?_pos=1&_sid=916153fc9&_ss=r&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiAst67BhCEARIsAKKdWOnZhaR2zMNDFtnpzWqr684nb2KAzej2XthNXlF90QIksFF0JSFGcOQaAoXeEALw_wcB

Sleep training recs in AustinWe had a GREAT experience with "strong little sleepers". If you want something more like tactics setting you up for success, look into "taking care of babies". How old is your kid, that will help determine which is best for you!

Do I hold my June Baby Back for Kindergarten?I did not hold my son back and he is May, looking back I wish I would have!! Not only for sports since everyone in Texas holds them back, but also just for emotional maturity which I feel like boys already lack/ are delayed with!
