Basically what the title says. My toddler loves raw firm tofu just cut into cubes, which is great. I am a busy, tired, pregnant again mom and always looking for ways to make my life easier in the kitchen. We typically eat the same things , I just deconstruct her plate.

Looking for ways to use the plain tofu for myself that are yummy. Mostly what I do now is sushi bowls w rice, raw veggies, the tofu, and soy sauce/rice vinegar which is really good but I’m growing tired of it!

Edit ; thank you all so so much!!!!! I got so many awesome new ideas :) love this sub!

Baby girl is due in 2 months and husband and I cannot agree upon a single name for her.

Sister is Daisy Jane , last name is a super common (USA), single syllable starting with S.

We now agree middle name will be Hope or Marie , family names.

My favs- Delilah, Sage, Cleo, Iris

Dad’s favs- Ivy, Hope-Marie (yes.. his two grandmothers names hyphenated….😐.)

Only name we’ve so far agreed upon liking but clearly not enough that we want to use it- Jade

Any names come to mind that you think we both might like ?

can anyone confirm that the sand restoration work at PB municipal beach is finished/ beach is open?

Hi all- I’m 6 months pregnant and still nursing my 18 month old daughter. We have night weaned and she only nurses 3x a day, at specified times. I’m wondering if I’ll be able to keep up her current nursing schedule even when baby sister arrives-not regarding milk supply but rather, my actual time spent nursing her and if it’s realistic/doable with a newborn. I honestly forget what it’s like to have a newborn, so I’m having a hard time surmising if I’ll be able to do it or not. I do have help in the form of a nanny in the morning hours and a husband who is home often, but I didn’t pump with my first and don’t really plan to with my second. Okay so here’s her schedule :

She naps independently but wakes up after 30 min typically, at which point I get her on the boob and she sleeps 30-1hr more. She breastsleeps 😬 this is probably a problem, right?

Then she nurses for about 5-10min after she gets out the bath, after dinner. This one is just for fun lol.

Then I nurse her to sleep as part of her bedtime routine. Actual nursing time here is like 5-10min max, getting her to sleep takes under 15 minutes almost always and then I lay her down and she sleeps thru the night.

These few nursing sessions are special times for us both and in an ideal world I’d be able to keep them as they are so she has that stability when baby comes. But if something needs changing, I’d like to get on it now so it doesn’t happen abruptly when she’s already adapting to new sister. I genuinely have no idea if what I described would be like laughably impossible with a newborn or if it’s totally doable, I’m feeling clueless about it. Experienced perspective would be great! Ty!
