If you're smart enough to be a brilliant doctor but have no social skills, there are plenty of good places for you to be. Pathology. Epidemiology. Academic research. The CDC. Brains don't always come with social skills. But if you don't have social skills, for fuck's sake, do not go into obstetrics-gynecology, or the patient-facing end of oncology (cancer care).

Thank you! Your wig is BEAUTIFUL! Can i ask what it is?

Congratulations to the recent winners!

I'm so happy to hear you won't have to see that doctor again dear and won't have to worry about it. 😄 Hugs

So happy that you got to see your regular doctor and got everything straightened out. I'm also glad you'll be able to find out what you are having earlier than expected.

Also, thank you for the gifts! Both were on my wishlist. :)

My HA is showing you her new skirt.

So cute! Great outfit ❤️

Thanks.

I'm relieved to hear that you no longer have to see her. Congrats to the winners!

I'm glad you don't have to see her ever again.

Congrats to the winners!

I didn't end up giving advice cause I wasn't sure I knew enough to help, but I'm very glad it's worked out okay for you!

I feel like some people are beginning to feel like they can't participate on certain challenges if they don't have children or experience with kids. Rest assured, that is not the case! I appreciate all feedback, even if it's a simple comment or opinion. No advice is bad advice <3

NEXT CHALLENGE

Baby is officially the size of a LEMON! Baby can now suck it's thumb and squint! Morning sickness is subsiding, tho not entirely gone yet. SO CLOSE! I've finally started a registry, tho I'm waiting to do the bulk until after I have a gender. This might sound crazy, but I've been trying to pick a baby bathtub for 2 weeks! The challenge this week is to tell me what you'd look for in a baby tub. IF you already have kids, if you want to show me what you used, that would be awesome. But this challenge is open to everyone, so if you don't have kids, please feel free to participate by just giving me a simple tip :)

OPTIONAL: If anyone has suggestions for challenges, please post them along with your other answer this week. This is not required, but would be appreciated!

im the sort of person who will just pick anything, but the thing i look at most is reviews. lots of reviews, good overall star percentage, and then look at the bad reviews and see if they're all complaining about the same thing, if they are then it's something to watch out for and maybe go to a different product.

Baby tubs? Ooh la la, fancy girl. Mom used to bathe me on a plastic tub. A method she also used on my sister. Her logic was "why spend money on something that will be used for 3 years max, when I have plastic tubs I use for several other things?". Frugal, yeah, but I also adopted that mentality. Cheap plastic tubs for everybody, wooho.

My primary concern with a baby tub would be safety. Comfort and ease of use/cleanup are important too.

I've seen the Blooming Baby Bath on my friends' registries, and it seems really clever with a lovely design. The product is made for bathing newborns and babies up to 6 months of age (depending on size). It's not a tub, rather an insert for your kitchen sink. You may find it will be less nerve-wracking to transition the baby to a more traditional plastic baby tub once he/she is older/bigger and you and your family have more experience bathing an infant. Good luck finding what you're looking for!

This looks like a great pick! But only if you have space because it is bigger. However, I think it's important to look for a product that will last and grow with baby.

So I actually got a little whale baby tub, but he kept slipping down in it and I thought he was going to drown so I only washed him in it like twice. I actually just hop in the shower with him instead and hold him to me real tight while soaping him up and then rinse him off with my shower head

i'd look for head and back support

i always read reviews. i stopped trusting amazon picks (if you're shopping on amazon) because a lot of the time it's some really poorly made plastic garbage that breaks really easy. when it's something important, i tend to gravitate towards brand names because it means they at least have some liability and can offer a replacement or a warranty.

I think the flower bath that Poppet picked is very cute, but it looks like it's made of fabric.

Anything that you put a baby in is going to get shat in/upon at least once. Keep that in mind and pick things you can hose right off?

Safety and comfort for not only the baby but you as well. Support for baby's neck in the beginning and back as they get older and space for it as well considering not all sinks and adult bathtubs are created the same. Also consider design, some are harder to clean than others.

My daughter was just washed in the kitchen sink so we didn't get a baby bathtub.

I hope you find one that you like. I also like 's choice.
