Matt a migraine isn’t something you just don’t notice/doesn’t bother you as much. It’s debilitating. It’s not a “bad headache” it’s a migraine, it’s HORRIBLE..

Just wanted to let you guys know, those child seats in the bathrooms stalls already exists. They fold down like theatre seats and have straps with buckles. They're usually only in the bigger stalls though. I can't recall where exactly I've seen them though. Also Matt, if you don't struggle with migraines, you'll never understand. They are debilitating. I went through the entire list of FDA approved and non FDA approved medication trying to find something that wpuld help but not screw me up in one way or another. It's tough. Have a bit more compassion for your wife's struggles.

Ummm I’m pretty sure Abby has on multiple occasions told Matt his illnesses are something he can just will away with his mind. So while I agree migraines are debilitating… it’s not like she’s ever shown compassion for him being sick. Not too mention these two don’t read or respond to comments.

Considering that Abby will still go to the gym and work out when she's got an illness that knocks you (Matt) down, the migraines and vertigo are clearly debilitating if they are keeping her from maintaining her usual activities. It's obvious that she does not make up or exaggerate symptoms in order to gain sympathy or get out of tasks.

My mom has had vertigo for pretty much her whole adult life and it can be horrible! Before she knew what it was, she went to the ER one time for it and was crying saying “I’m dying!” Over and over. The doctors and nurses were really horrible to her until her blood work came back clean- they thought she was on drugs😢 her issue is with the “crystals” in her inner ear. It’s often triggered by high sodium or MSG intake and she takes meclizine when she feels it coming on. It’s effective but knocks her out for several hours.

One of the “leashes” saved my cousin’s life when she was little!! She was a runner and would just take off at random and one day she took off toward the road. There were 6 of us outside, but she was quick and we stopped her by catching her leash backpack she had on. Not so sure that if she hadn’t have been wearing it we would’ve caught up to her in time and we lived on a very busy road!! No shame!!! If your child is dangerous to themselves without it, you gotta do what you gotta do to keep them safe!!! I grew up in the 90s/early 2000s and these weren’t really a thing yet, but I do remember in school the teachers having a rope with a handle for each of us that we had to hold while walking to make sure we stayed together… multi person leash lol!! 😂🤷🏻‍♀️

My husband helped me out on more than one occasion with milk ducts over the course of 4 kids. Also - for Matt, human milk doesn’t expire, but I’m sure the taste changed if there was a potential infection present. Way to be there for your honey though, Matt 😊 and Abby, you’re in good company 😁👊🏻

8:13 Having a baby seat on the wall in the public restroom is actually a thing although I’ve only seen it once! It was so helpful for my son!

@ChristinasHome 10 күн бұрын

Yeah, they have them in certain Walmarts and Sam’s Club have them, you have to go in the handicap stall though. But I think when you have kids, it’s justified because you can’t really fit in a regular style with them anyway.

Some stalls do have a foldable seat for a baby. Ive never used them. I would put mine in a stroller. If stall is too small I’ll use a larger stall, keep the door ajar. Works in an empty bathroom. Stroller provides some privacy.

look up the Epley maneuver to help with vertigo!! Doing that & relaxing with your head upright for a few hours is the only thing that could get rid of it for me!

It is his AGE it just becomes more from 1-4 years old! Its a wild ride with toddlers. my son is exactly the same way he goes hard and plays hard. He is always on the move and doesn't like slowing down. I have to make him hes almost 4 years old now to go in his room and have 'relax time he will play or look at books for 20 minutes. He is at the age where naps are going away but he goes so hard. So many emotions at this age! Hold on for the ride! We have Irish twins and it can be complete chaos lol! But I also have two older kids so I know this doesn't last forever at all

Kids and screen time - I think it all depends on what your day to day is like and what you choose. We just flew with our 3 and 2 year old, flights 1 hour and 4 hours, and we don’t use screens. Our kids totally did fine! Yes I brought tonsssss of snacks, and coloring activities, and their babies, and some stickers and gel stickers for the airplane window. But it is totally doable! Because we travel all the time with no screens so our kids don’t know any different :)

the non alcoholic beer, does have alcohol. Not very much, but just enough that not anyone can have it. My newly married husband and I were on our honeymoon, and I was only 19 at the time (he was 27) and he asked me if I wanted a sip to try it, and I said yes. well the waitress said "DONT YOU DARE DRINK THAT" and come to find out there is enough of alcohol in them, that they could have gotten in trouble if i drank it.
