Popsicle trays create the best results, while ice cube trays make miniature ice pops. The molds should be freezer-safe, preferably hard plastic. Popsicles don't have to be just juice. Experiment with different varieties of drinks, by making gatorade popsicles, pudding popsicles, smoothie popsicles, or ice cube popsicles. You don't want to overfill it because the mixture will expand while freezing. It also may make it harder for you to get it out of the mold if overfilled. Aluminum foil works best, but you can also use plastic wrap. Be sure that it's on tightly. Make sure it touches the bottom of it. The foil or wrap should hold the popsicle stick in its place. Check on it at intervals if desired. Serve as needed.

This is the first thing to consider when deciding what the first night together will entail. Don't assume that just because you're sleeping over for the first time you're obligated to have sex. However, if that's what you're hoping for, plan for it. Having sex can be a way of bringing you two closer together and forming an even more intimate bond. Sex can also bring up tricky issues such as questions about monogamy, sexual history, sexual health, and potential pregnancy. If you're not up for talking about these things with your guy, you may not be ready for the responsibility of being sexually active with him. It's okay to feel ambivalent about sex, especially the first time. If you aren't ready to make a decision right now, that's okay. Just make sure that you're able to make a fully informed and consensual decision in the moment if sex comes up. This might feel awkward at first, but it's a conversation that will come up eventually. There are a number of ways you can ask about your boyfriend's expectations while still being charming and even flirtatious. If you want to keep the conversation flirty, you can ask what the sleeping arrangements will be. Say something like, "So, do you think we'll be sharing a bed or should I bring my own sleeping bag?" If you want to be more direct, you can say something like, "I know we've never had a sleepover before. I'm really excited, but I'd also like to talk about each of our expectations for the night. I'm wondering how you feel about sex and if you think we're ready." If you already know exactly what you want and feel certain about it, you can simply start with that. Say something like, "Hey, I'm really excited to sleep over, but I want you to know ahead of time that I am not ready to have sex with you" or, "I'm so excited to stay over at your house tonight. I feel really ready to take things to the next level with sex." If you've already made a decision for yourself, such as choosing to have sex or not have sex, that's great. However, sometimes the specific circumstances may influence how you feel and you might change your mind in the moment. That's okay. Listen to your gut. You may have not planned on having sex but find yourself feeling extremely comfortable and excited to try it. You may have planned on having sex, but if you suddenly feel uncomfortable or nervous, it's okay to change your mind. Make sure that your decision is based on your feelings, not on pressure from your boyfriend, your friends, your parents, or other external pressures.

You should wash the clothing in a washing machine if the stain doesn't completely lift after you try scraping and blotting it. This is important to do if you don't want the clothing to be permanently damaged. If the piece can easily be placed in the washing machine and washed, that will provide the easiest and most thorough removal method. It's usually a good idea to pretreat the stain with laundry pre-wash stain remover. Run the warm water from the back of the stain through the front. This should help pull the toothpaste out of the woof of the woven fabric. Gently rub the stain(s) with your finger under the water. Make sure the stains are out before you dry your clothing. Drying sets the stain into fabric more, making it tougher to remove. If the stain is still there, soak the clothing in a bucket of very hot water and some detergent for a few hours. Do not dry in the dryer; rather, air dry until you are certain that no remnants remain. If you detect remnants of toothpaste, repeat the process. Remove the initial toothpaste and, once you are left with the residue that is worked into the fabric of your clothes, use dish soap and really scrub at the stain. First, scrape off as much of the toothpaste as you can. Let the soap sit for about 10 minutes, and then clean the garment as usual. You only need about a teaspoon of clear dish washing liquid and a cup of water. Mix them together and then use a clean rag to rub the mixture onto the stain.

Your sick baby may not want to eat as much, but if their appetite hasn't changed, avoid feeding them as much as they normally eat. Feeding smaller, more frequent meals is gentler on their sensitive stomachs and they'll be less likely to vomit it up. To help you monitor your baby's illness, you might want to write down when you feed the baby and about how much they ate or how long they nursed. Then, make a note if they keep it down or vomit shortly after. Watch for when your baby pauses during a feed and use the opportunity to burp them. Try to do this 2 to 3 times while they eat and spend less than 1 minute burping, stopping even if they haven't burped. If your baby hasn't burped after you've tried burping them for 1 minute, they probably don't have trapped gas to release so let them go back to feeding. Your sick baby might not enjoy the sensation of movement, which can make them feel nauseous. Instead of swinging or bouncing your baby, cradle them in your arms and hold them steady. Cuddling your sick baby can reassure them and make them feel more comfortable. If your sick baby seems gassy and unable to burp, put them into a baby bathtub that's half full of warm water. After the bath, dry your baby and lay them on their back. Then, use lotioned hands to gently rub across their tummy in a clockwise direction. The warm bath can relax their stomach muscles and the massage can release trapped air so the baby burps. If your baby swallows a lot of air during a feeding session, they may become gassy or have to burp a lot. To reduce discomfort, consider buying anti-colic bottles that are designed to make it easier for your baby to suck without swallowing a lot of air. You can also check the baby bottle nipples to ensure that milk isn't flowing too quickly, which can cause your baby to choke.
