@brittilina I said there are biological differences, which may include shape too. I go by what works, starting with the box for a guideline. My experience has been my kids move out of all sizes sooner than a box says is necessary.

I am vindicated. Pg 22 of this document from the CDC (cdc.gov/nchs/data/seri…)
Mean waist circumference
2yo boy: 48.7cm
2yo girl: 48.3cm
It’s not a freaking half-inch like on these pull-ups.
And oh, look at the 3yo data!
Boys: 50.3cm
Girls: 51.1cm
If anything my daughter’s pullups and pants should be BIGGER than the boys.
Now everyone saying “girls are smaller than boys” sit down and be indignant on our little girls’ behalfs.

So, who wants to get mad about something else? THEY DO THE SKINNIER WAIST THING FOR GIRLS WITH TRAINING PANTS TOO! When we first started potty-training, WM was out of the girl off-brand pull-ups, so I got the boy ones. We finally got low enough to replenish them and I got the girl ones. Put one on her today, thought it felt harder to pull all the way up, so I checked. Girl training pant is skinnier by more than half an inch.

@yesimjustamom Yes!!! Although sometimes she is up at 7, 7:30. Do not wake up sooner than you can handle, please 😅

@courtneyknill @mrsdobbins_ They're practically non-existent beyond covering your crotch and where your leg meets your thigh.

It is an abomination that Old Navy’s new line of summer maternity shorts have a 3.5” inseam. Who on earth would that even be comfortable or flattering on? 😭

@JackStantonIV @heckyessica We have all sorts of LP and their bus/dump truck/house/airplane.
It seems so, although we don't have one!
English
@HomeWithTheKids @heckyessica Oh no kidding? My kids are grown, so haven't paid attention lately.
Do they bring "big wheels" back too?
Those were always cool

Questions for the 35+ ish crowd: what are some games or toys you played with that you don’t see much of anymore? I was looking for something today and saw a kite! I haven’t seen, heard about, or remembered those existed in years. Is it just me or are there things you don’t see?

@JackStantonIV @heckyessica They have a new version of Little People!

@agreatdayinnc @brittilina Yeah, it's biological differences.
English
@brittilina I mean I’m not surprised. Girls are generally more petite and definitely built different than boys

Filled up the van just now and OUCH.

@MaddieVasiliev @mrsdobbins_ @carlympowers My second longest living grandparent (92) also used this method... he had stashed of candy in his toolbox in the garage 🤣

@audrawrongspeak It's really night and day difference once they get the issue out of their system! It CAN take time for all symptoms (that you might not have known were symptoms) to clear, but it should mostly improve pretty quickly.
English
Well the good thing about my newborn having allergies is I’m going to go back to home cooked, delicious food that’s actually good for me instead of the slop I ate in the third trimester.
So that’s a positive.
Huge improvement in her sleep last night. Huge.
English
@PTElephant @audrawrongspeak It can take time but it's worth it. I'm still bothered by the weeks before that when she was so uncomfortable 😣 I cut dairy at 6w pp and stayed dairy free for 2.5 years.
English
@PTElephant @audrawrongspeak Browse the "dairy free diet breastfeeding" group on Facebook! It helped me with my second baby so much. She is nearly 4 and can't tolerate cow's milk proteins still (CMPI).
English
Baby was so gassy she was awake for hours last night.
She wasn’t like that in the hospital, would eat and then sleep for 2 hours.
English
@audrawrongspeak I was dairy free with her for 2.5 years... If I can do it, anyone can
English
@audrawrongspeak Join the "dairy free diet breastfeeding" group on Facebook (make a throwaway account if needed!) It truly saved me with my second, who had CMPI! Nearly 4 and still intolerant, unfortunately 😭
English
Alright doctor told me to cut out soy and dairy, and that it’ll take three days to get out of my system.
And she gave me some hypoallergenic formula to supplement with, so yeah.
English
@MJPiazza2 Can you do allergy shots? My relative has AWFUL allergies & they made all of the difference. Moved, stopped shots & visited again - suffered horrible allergies again.
English
I’m taking enough Zyrtec to kill most small mammals and I’m still deafening my loved ones with my sneezes. Just anesthetize me at this point

@brittilina Raising their eyebrows like "Are you thinking what I'm thinking?!"
English
One of my favorite newborn things is when you offer a breast to them for nursing and they start wiggling their eyebrows like they are flirting with your b00b.
All 4 of mine have done this, so I’m pretty sure it’s universal. Unfortunately I can’t include a video, you understand.

@oliveegger Two of our kids must be the same ages, roughly! I have a fairly decent foot finder & an ornery young preschool aged kid. That one was TOUGH today but ended the night playing "I love you more than..." 😍
English
@Cowboyyamnaya @Primal_Birth It's not lactose for babies (lactose is in breast milk so they'd be extremely sick anyway) but the milk proteins.
English
@Primal_Birth @HomeWithTheKids Yeah but most nons with few exceptions are lactose intolerant for real
