Group Activity
I am getting my twins vaccinated, but want an alternative schedule. Which would you recommend?

My dd is 8 1/2m old and I am craving and drinking alcohol irresponsibly sometimes. I have stored milk to feed her when I start to feel tipsy but seem to keep putting shots in my coffee and water as t day goes by. I know I'm cabin fever but need some encouragement to refocus on breast feeding a healthy child. I don't put her in danger by driving or becoming impaired while alone, to be clear. I just love to taste it lately.

Anyone shop at whole foods? I'm wanting my family to go mostly organic, and definitely more natural. What are some typical prices of weekly food items such as ground beef, chicken, apples, lettuce, and cheese? Wondering if I can afford it..

Received as gift to mother for my baby shower a huge bag chock full of all kinds of exciting Mary Kay makeup products. I also received Korre(?) lotions made by Sephora(?). Please tell me why using these products is not a good idea..?
When my first son was born, I became obsessed with avoiding unnecessary chemicals and immediately put a stop to my cheap cvs makeup routine because I didn't want him in contact with it.
Now I feel tempted to use these pretty "quality" chemical makeups but I feel there is good reason not to. Health-wise, what exactly is that reason..?
TELL ME PLEASE!

Can you please explain to me how you did it? Like what sippy you used (if any) at what age? Did you switch to using just sippy or a combo of sippy & bottle?
Jase is 10mos & right now he's using a nuk sippy that's a lot like a bottle. We only have one of these but I'd like to not use the bottle anymore since he's doing well with it.
*as a side note, he normally uses glass bottles but we can't afford the glass/steel sippys since right now so I'm hoping to transition to a cup (or a sippy closely resembling one) very quickly. Then maybe I'll buy 2-3 steel sippys since he'll be using them longer.

this may be a very silly question, but wondering how you all prepare food for your babes at this age.
my lo is 14 months and i've been preparing really chunky purees. i've tried blw and after several issues with real choking (requiring heimlich), i stopped. i guess i've been slow to start giving him bite-sized food because of that.
i prepare all his food every two weeks with organic meat, veggies and grains. now, i think he's ready for bite-sized food, but do you all prepare that in advance and freeze that too? i know some people just give their LOs what they eat, but our food has salt, sometimes sugar and are not always organic. so what do you do?

I'm planning on switching to mama cloth. There are so many brands, fabrics, and shapes, I don't know where to start! Anyone have any favorites?

I didn't know where to go with this question...I thought this would be the best forum!
Does anyone have recommendations on websites or other references to help convert my family's eating habits to whole foods? I know it's a simple concept, but I need help! I grew up on convenience foods...we didn't eat out much, but mom and dad both worked hard and we often had hamburger helper, etc. My husband and I are both obese and really need/want to make a change for the sake of our children. Any help you could provide would be so appreciated!!
