    My kid’s crib only converted to a toddler bed (not a full sized bed as well)... but we also got it at IKEA for only $120 lol. She just got her “little girl” bed (which converts from toddler to child to twin), again from IKEA, and it was a whopping $130. Her old crib/toddler bed got converted back into a crib and now it’s the new baby’s crib. Because it’s furniture. It doesn’t expire. It doesn’t need to be replaced every two years. When my youngest outgrows the converted crib, she’ll go into the little girl bed and my oldest will into the guest bed. I can’t imagine that the very expensive specially ordered crib she bought for Charlotte doesn’t convert into a full sized bed. Honestly, she should just get it refinished in a lighter colour or white and call it a day.

    My new baby was just in the hospital with RSV because some jackass sent their sick kid to daycare with my older daughter (who is in daycare because 1. Socialization and 2. Two babies is hard and it’s okay to want/need a break, Jen. Just own it!).

    Jen needs to shake her head out and realize that sending your germbag child to school when they’re hacking up lung chunks is not okay. Young babies, like Donny, can die from this crap. She’s so “protective” that she won’t take her baby to Target, but she’ll send her walking plague to school. Plus the poor girl was clearly still in pain from that cough... that shit wasn’t residual. I actually usually genuinely like Jen for the most part (but can appreciate her complete oddness, delusions, and quirks), but dammit she’s an idiot.

    Yaaaas, girl. Sleep mask and ear plugs. I had a repeat section and am formula feeding, so it was up to my husband to do the middle of the night hospital feeds while I slept peacefully on a cloud of morphine. I did enough... and, you know, I trust my partner with my kids unlike a certain YouTuber (on account of the fact that he isn’t a total moron and is perfectly capable of cleaning up a tiny human’s crap and keeping said tiny human fed and alive without me breathing down his neck).

    Still suffering through watching this brag sesh.

    She only got the epidural because they made her, you know. Just in case of a c section, you know. NOT because she needed it for pain control. Whatever. Just say it hurt like a bitch. We ALL know it did.

    Now, I'm not in the US, and already know things are done differently there, but I'm pretty sure that if she didn't want the epidural, they wouldn't make her take it. And it's got nothing to do with the c-section - epidural for vaginal labor is not the same procedure as for a c-section (they don't put the needle at the same place in the back, because you need def. more pain control if they cut you open - also not the same products). So I call BS.

    I’m gonna Jenfend a bit on this claim (only a little lol). I’m in Canada and just had my second c-section. My first was an emergency and they just upped my epidural as I was headed into the OR. I had been in labour for 49 hours, and it was a failed induction because I had preeclampsia. This time I planned for a VBAC, until complications arose that meant I had to have the baby at 38 weeks. My doctor HIGHLY suggested (but didn’t tell me I had to, so I call BS on Jen for that little tidbit) that if I were to go for the VBAC/induction that I should probably get the epidural for the same reason... so that if I landed back in the OR I wouldn’t have to be knocked out. We went with a planned csection instead, because screw 50 hour failed inductions lol.

    Mind you, my first birth “failed” because of baby’s size, positioning, and the fact that she had to come early and my body wasn’t ready. Based on scans and my condition this time around, there was a solid chance I would have complications again... which is why it was suggested. In Jen’s case, the issues she had during her first pregnancy weren’t a concern this time... from what I’ve been told that lowers the risk of a repeat csection by a LOT. I believe her doctor suggested it, but I don’t get WHY in her situation they would.
