I had a similar reaction to a very strong pot brownie that I ate too much of. I got incredibly paranoid and anxious, I wouldn’t let anyone near me, and I convinced myself I could time-travel, and would do so without intending to. I had to take a nap on a balcony in the snow, because I was so hot I refused to come in

I’ve been following her for awhile, her account is fascinating — she posted last week or the week before that she found a baby squirrel that fell out of a tree. She took it to a vet and got directions on how to take care of him and prep him to be released back into the wild if possible.

hahahaha we joke that our child rents a nicer apartment than we do, for what we pay in daycare! Such a hilarious, hilarious joke.

Yeah, we were at $1450/month for 2 days a week in Manhattan, I feel your pain. I was an idiot and waited until I actually had a child to start looking — I was literally the only person on the tours with a tiny human, everyone else seemed to be newly pregnant. We managed to cobble together five days a week from flex

Your partner and my husband should get toegther a form a support group.

I saw that you said that, but I don’t think it diminishes the point I’m making, which is that while women get judged for just doing a thing (in this case, being a mom, full stop), men get praised for doing an equal thing (in this case, being a dad who atually gives a shit about his kids) and only get judged for doing

The difference is that you’re talking about men getting judged for being bad dads. Women get judged for just being moms.

My husband was really into picking just the right carrier, too, and he also went with the ergo!

I can't stop laughing at this oh my god.

Boiling your silicone toys is a (usually) great and quick way to sanitize them, which I've always heard is recommended in addition to the post-use scrub. But I'm very finicky. And if I had burned silicone toy ash in my house I'd probably just move.

No, I get this. I'm choosing to leave my career and stay at home and my largest problem is feeling like, as a staunch feminist, I'm letting everyone down. My friends, my mother (a single, full-time working mom since my dad left when I was two), my co-workers, myself, and my daughter. I don't quite know how to

We actually did the math (because we have a really intense monthly budget that we stick to), and basically my entire weekly paycheck does go to daycare. Daycare, especially in NYC, is insanely expensive.

We're actually going through a version of this right now. I went back to work after my three-month maternity leave...but to a job where no one expected me to come back, a job where I am, in fact, one of the only women to have had a kid and return to work. So it's been a huge eye-opener navigating a workplace that just
