Does anyone’s toddler actually eat?

Mine will be 2 in July and it’s a fight to get him to eat anything. It’s so incredibly frustrating because he’ll be hungry but all he wants to eat is Oreos and we obviously don’t give him those. I don’t know how to get him to eat at this point

Intense body aches and fatigue after being sick??

How can I get back to normal??!! I’m a toddler mom hoping to try for #2 soon but I want my body recovered before I’m stuck with 1st trimester symptoms. I’m currently on an antibiotic for a sinus infection. I’ve been sick about a week and resting as much as I can but my body aches are so intense from my fingers, to my ribs, to my jaw even. Does anyone have advice on how to boost my system a bit and kick start recovery? I also get like this with my period but it goes away on its own. Is it just a waiting game now?

I can’t tell if I have low oxygen or I’m panicking

I have a cold rn and for some reason I keep having panic attacks. I feel like I can’t get a full breath and my hands feel tingly and numb. But idk if I’m experiencing the panic because I have low oxygen or if all of it is just anxiety based. I’m trying to stay calm but it’s like im not in control

Do I need to make this neckline wider for it to sit properly?

So I started free handing this poncho for my mom. I’m doing alternating rows of hdc, ch 1, hdc and tr, ch 1, tr. Also increasing (2hdc or 2tr) in 4 corners. The stitch pattern looks really pretty but the neckline is really gappy and weird looking. Will the weight of the yarn/blocking help to mellow it out? Or would it be better to make 2 triangular panels and sew them together for this stitch pattern? Does it need to be more of a mesh stitch? Do I need to increase harder? Lmk what you guys think 🫶🏻

We are giving our 21 mo our queen sized mattress but there’s only about 5 inches between the mattress and the top of the bed frame. We were trying to save money by giving him our mattress, but I’m worried this isn’t tall enough to protect him. Do I need a new mattress?

I literally posted in here in the middle of the night cuz I was stressed about his sleep. He woke up at 7am a happy boy, had a big breakfast, and started falling asleep on me at about 11:40 on the couch which is unusual for him. He officially went down at 11:50, woke at 1:30 crying hysterically, and was on and off crying about 3 or 4 more times until he finally fully woke up at 2:50. I let him sleep that long because he had a split night last night and I thought he might be tired

At 2:50 I opened his curtains and took him to the living room where he continued to cry as I held him and rocked him. I could tell something was off. He was fading in and out of sleep and looked pretty pale. I was on the phone with my husband and told him he needed to come home but he pushed back. 5 mins later, my toddler sat up and vomited all over us both. I took his clothes off and my sweat shirt cuz they were covered in vomit and took him outside (72 and sunny here) for a reset. I wore him in the ring sling and walked up and down the street with him while I called the ped. He was whining and just saying “outside”.

The peds office said no food only clear liquids for 8 hours to keep him hydrated. I don’t think he has a fever but I can’t find the thermometer

He’s now sleeping on me again and I’m so stressed and terrified. He’s responsive but out of it for sure and I’m so worried. Can anyone give me some advice or reassurance? He’s so lively all the time and this is so unlike him. I’m so scared. I know I’m probably overreacting but I’m so stressed

Please tell me it’ll go away? I only hear it when there’s no white noise or I close my ear. It’s only my left ear but it’s stressing me out and I just want it to go away 😭
