I took them off because my nails were growing so quickly during pregnancy and I couldn’t keep up with the fills. Even without the pandemic, I’m not sure I’d be able to find the time now to get them done, but I’ve been using some press ons and they’re really high quality nowadays.

mommit

Same , I actually feel more confident with my face game , I just wish my hands didn’t look like an Eastern European potato farmers

mommit

Same! I used to wear makeup every day and I put on makeup for the first time since my baby was born a week ago! He’s ten months old. Oof

mommit

So I think not wearing foundation or makeup as much as I used to, my skin seems to be a lot better now. Well I only stopped because I'm at home quarantining and nowhere to go. And also eating more healthy. So maybe all these contributions I do like it a lot better too!

mommit

I recently painted my toenails for the first time since my daughter was born 15 months ago and she poked at them too! Working out who you are/finding the time since becoming a mother is tough!

mommit

Lol I said the same

mommit

I painted my nails for the first time yesterday. As soon as I was done, my daughter rolled onto her stomach and promptly freaked out because she didn’t want to roll onto her back but was mad she was on her stomach. Needless to say, my nails are not very pretty now and I’m too lazy to fix them.

mommit

Check out Zoya fast drops. They used to have fairly good regular coupon codes and I love that polish brand. The dry drops make the whole process go a lot faster between that and seche vite top coat

mommit

Same

mommit

I know what you mean! We need that sometimes

mommit

Well just wait until they are 3-4, you’ll get all the manis and pedis you want.. although probably not the best.. they will be the best ones you’ll ever get

mommit

Me too. Now I just put my kid’s stickers on the back of my hand and ta-da!

mommit

My son is 8 and I've painted his nails a couple times during this pandemic lockdown when he saw me and my daughter doing our nails. He likes red so his would be the brightest red i had.

mommit

My son loved his nails painted until he was four and a half. He’d pick out new colors as a prize at the store. He’d especially want them to match his soccer jersey for games. He wasn’t even bothered when a boy on his team told him nail polish was for girls. It was when the girls at daycare kept telling him it was for girls. Now he says he likes nail polish but only to look at.

mommit

My 2 oldest are 3 and almost 5 years old. I paint their nails when I paint mine. Their favorite color is blue so I got a nice blue last time I bought nail polish. Although, they like to do several colors sometimes. Fun way to use up the cheap nail polish I bought years ago!

mommit

Look into piggy paint. It is supposed to be safe for kids. It is all natural so it doesn't last all that long but I feel safe using it on my daughter and myself.

mommit

Funny you should ask. I just helped my sister cut my 11 month old niece's nsi3ls and she was fascinated by my colorful nails and I was thinking how long until I can paint your nails??? And I can't remember when I started with my daughter. It was when she was less than 2 but old enough to understand the bribery. She was super impatient about lettkng them dry so i bought a couple if those express dry polishes and did it outside for a while. She was past the age of putting everything in her mouth. I think it was maybe 18 months, maybe 20.

mommit

They have polish that is formaldehyde-free, and polish that's supposed to be ok for kids. I got a big pack of kids peel off polish from Amazon t too get over a nail trimming hurdle with my son (we still paint nails whenever he feels like it but like other people on the thread have said, kids at school have got him fixed on what's for girls and what's for boys, but despite them he still yelled me he loves rainbows)

mommit

My 4 year old son almost has hands bigger than mine. I feel you fam

mommit

This is literally how I feel about mine

mommit

Hahahahaha I love it. That’s exactly how I feel about my hands. Especially when they swell (after I exercise I get swelling in my hands sometimes) I feel like they look like beefy man hands.

mommit

Oh man, this is the exact situation I'm afraid of... my baby is only taking 15 minute naps right now, this would for sure turn into a disaster lol.

mommit

Aww that is so smart.

mommit

This is so sad.

mommit

Sounds good! I think I painted one of my nephews nails when he was around 2ish because he wanted sparkles like me...

mommit

I don’t even wear rings anymore because I don’t want to draw attention to these red and flaky mittens

mommit

I have a friend that’s a jazz musician in London and he paints his nails for football games- totally acceptable and the other fans think it’s cool. He’s in his mid 30’s like I am.

mommit

These pics are magical!

mommit

Such a beautiful bonding moment. The pictures are flawless.

mommit

I tried doing this with my 6mo last night when we plugged in the lights after we decorated our tree. Absolutely 0 cares given, and she stared at the cat instead

mommit

Oh my goodness i need to take my baby out! How old is your little girl??

mommit

Adorable!! And your curly hair is amazing!

mommit

I’m just as excited looking at those squishy baby cheeks!

mommit

Frame these! She’s beautiful

mommit

Not to be weird, is this perchance in Arkansas?

mommit

Oh my Gosh, her cheeks! I so want to be that annoying relative and pinch the hell out of them! She’s adorable!! Did her smile light up the Christmas lights or did the Christmas lights light up her smile? I can’t tell!!

mommit

I'm happy for you! These are so precious. Mine was thoroughly unimpressed with Christmas lights. She does get hype yo Christmas music though.

mommit

Aw he’s adorable!

mommit

Please submit this to redditgetsdrawn. Oh my gosh, the cuteness that is your child is amazing. I want you to know that this photo brought me all the happy feels of the holidays. It is glorious.

mommit

She is so adorable! You should definitely have one of these printed and framed!

mommit

Thanks, I think so too!! I got it in Ireland a couple of years ago and it's my all time favorite

mommit

I can understand her. Cat is for sure more interesting that "some lights".

mommit

She's 8 months! I didnt know if she'd react very much but clearly she loved it

mommit

I was going to be weird and ask the same thing. We were at a very similar looking spot in AR this week!

mommit

She said on the original post it was in Bentonville.

mommit

The daughter or the sweater? /S

mommit

My kid then pulls the straw out with her teeth and shakes her head from side to side- ultimate spray range. She's gonna go far in life. I may not make it to her 5th birthday

mommit

I gave up on cups and just give pouch yogurt and applesauce

mommit

If only i knew this 3 years ago. The post of what happened when my toddler checked if his yoghurt would bouce still lives somewhere on reddit. It wasnt pretty

mommit

Oh my gosh… need to remember this! I’ve been getting the yogurt tubes, which for mess prevention, are awesome, but “health wise” are not great. Awesome!

mommit

Mine likes to squish the container (i think the actual yogurt is just a nice coincidence to him)

mommit

I do that too! Otherwise it is a MESS! I do the same with applesauce. I even bought a little cup with a lid and straw especially for yogurts and applesauce.

mommit

Damn why didn't I think of this. Thanks for sharing

mommit

Thank you SO much

mommit

Genius.

mommit

I used to make smoothies with milk and juice so it fit through his straw cups.

mommit

YES!!! I did the same thing with my twins when they were toddlers

mommit

Oh my fuxking god why haven’t I thought of that

mommit

This would have saved me so many hours

mommit

We did the same thing with applesauce cups!

mommit

Oooooooooh game changer!

mommit

Oh man this is so smart, I gotta try this when my son is old enough to try new foods and learns to drink from a straw

mommit

Genius

mommit

Mentally saving this because brilliant

mommit

Lol mine started doing this with apple sauce all on his own!

mommit

I mix them with like 4oz whole milk and he gets it in his milk cup. Smoothie, bam.

mommit

Following you for more parenting hacks lol!!

mommit

Go-gurt is still somehow messier

mommit

This is a great way to serve applesauce too

mommit

Awesome idea, our speech therapist said straws are also great for speech development muscles.

mommit

Ah yes, we used to do applesauce like that. I’d almost forgotten

mommit

Mine takes the straw out of any container with a straw in it and dumps it upside down

mommit

This is fucking brilliant

mommit

I’ve learned that I cannot avoid my toddler making a mess no matter how hard I try, I just embrace it at this point and get the wipes ready

mommit

Mine will take out straw and poke her finger in and dump it upside down

mommit

This kid is gonna grow up drinking yogurt for the rest of his life and I am here for it

mommit

No shit….. I just started doing this LAST NIGHT with my youngest (3)… the funny part is that I have three older kids ranging from ages 5-12 and I’ve never done this

mommit

See this would work great if my crotch goblin wasn’t obsessed with pulling out straws lol

mommit

Brilliant!

mommit

Mom hack! Love it!!

mommit

It looks great. How are they sucking the fruit in through the straw?

mommit

I do this with soup and apple sauce if it's not in a pouch haha genius!

mommit

Haaa same!

mommit

You can get reusable pouches!

mommit

We're also team pouch.

mommit

You can buy the reusable food pouches and put in your own yogurt! Same concept but you're in control of what's in them!

mommit

If you freeze the yogurt tubes, even more mess prevention.

mommit

I have a 7 year old and never did this with him haha

mommit

I guess it’s a smooth yoghurt

mommit

I do this with those yogurt tubes. Never thought of doing it with the little cups. Great idea!!

mommit

Used mine for 4 years before they grew old enough to recycle them. The same 6 pouches!

mommit

HOLY WHAT NOW??! *immediately logs on to amazon*

mommit

This sounds like a cleaning nightmare and haven for mold. How bad was it to get the pouches actually clean?

mommit

Nice idea! Are the food pouches machine washable? Do you use a particular brand?

mommit

Ah!

mommit

Right! Me too!

mommit

The haakaa ones aren’t bad at all! They’re silicone and have a pretty rigid top, you can just put them upside down on one of the tines in the dishwasher.

mommit

They open up you wash them like, I dunno, any regular bottle. The ones that I had were about the same size and shape as a baby bottle, just made of silicon so it was squeezable.

mommit

Super easy, since they go in the dishwasher.
