#mombassadorchat Moms, Today's #mombassadorchat is with @believeinbuddha on crafting!! Here's her bio: Hi there! I'm the Buddhist Mama. I am 27 years old and from central California. I have four children; Ava, Ella, Zeus, and Harley Quinn. I am no stranger to struggle and have seen my share of ups and downs in life. No matter what the universe throws at me I like to stay positive and take everything as a lesson to be learned and wisdom to be gained. I like to focus on what truly matters in life, like the small stuff; feeling a sense of accomplishment and pride. One way I help to build these feelings up in myself is by crafting. Pinterest is my life! I get so much joy every day from just being inspired and I try to spread that joy in every way that I can. I love my ability to utilize this community of you wonderful moms. Mom Life is an incredible blessing for me which I am so thankful for. We are all here to support one another and share our stories, strength, and hope. I look forward to getting to know everyone and helping this app grow! Tips I have for crafting: 1. Use what you already have. Look around your house; you can craft with anything from old curtains to clothes, broken jewelry or scrap wood. Go outside! You can use rocks, cardboard, and recyclables for various projects as well. 2. Find ideas on Pinterest. I get all of my ideas from here! 3. Check out budget stores. Dollar tree, 99 cent store, Dollar General and thrift shops are always rotating their inventory to bring in new products. You will be surprised what you can find! 4. Invest in a glue gun. A good glue gun will run you about $7.50 and a large pack of glue sticks is $10 for 100 sticks. This will come in handy, trust me. It expands your ability to craft! A large pack of sticks lasts me months so its perfect for moms on a budget. 5. Coupon. If you go to the craft stores make sure you bring all the coupons you can find. The store sites usually have a few posted and if you sign up for their email news letter they send you extra ones too. You can use all the coupons you find because at most craft stores there's no limit. But always check your local Wal-Mart first! I have found that paint and felt for example is less than half the price there. Ask @believeinbuddha a question by tagging her in the comments! 🌟A huge thanks to @believeinbuddha for hosting this chat!!🌟 Let's get chatting! 🍁mom.life_usa🍂

Moms, We've seen lots of posts about moms trying to naturally induce labor quite early. If you are interested in this kind of information, you should seek the advice of a medical professional because every pregnancy is different. For educational purposes and without any judgement, here is what the March of Dimes states about babies born too early. We will also post this on our blog this weekend. Babies born too early may have more health problems at birth and later in life than babies born later. Being pregnant 39 weeks gives your baby's body all the time it needs to grow. Here's why your baby needs 39 weeks: Important organs, like his brain, lungs and liver, get the time they need to develop. He is less likely to have vision and hearing problems after birth. He has time to gain more weight in the womb. Babies born at a healthy weight have an easier time staying warm than babies born too small. He can suck and swallow and stay awake long enough to eat after he's born. Babies born early sometimes can't do these things. Can scheduling an early birth cause problems for you and your baby? Yes. Experts are learning that scheduling an early birth for non-medical reasons can cause problems for mom and baby. Below are examples of problems that can happen when a birth is scheduled too soon for a non-medical reason. Your due date may not be exactly right. Sometimes it's hard to know just when you got pregnant. Even with an ultrasound, your due date can be off by as much as 2 weeks. If you schedule to induce labor or schedule a cesarean birth (also called a c-section) and your date is off by a week or 2, your baby may be born too early. Inducing labor may cause problems for you and your baby. These can include: Stronger and more frequent contractions. This happens for many women. Contractions are when the muscles of your uterus get tight and then relax. Possible infections Uterine rupture. This is when the uterus tears during labor. It happens very rarely. Inducing labor may not work. If your labor is induced, the medicine your doctor or certified nurse-midwife (also called CNM) gives you may not start your labor. When this happens, you may need to have a c-section. A c-section can cause problems for your baby. Babies born by c-section may have more breathing and other medical problems than babies born by vaginal birth. (Most babies are born by vaginal birth. The mother's uterus contracts to help push the baby out through the vagina, also called the birth canal.) C-sections can cause problems in future pregnancies. Once you have a c-section, you may be more likely in future pregnancies to have a c-section. The more c-sections you have, the more problems you and your baby may have, including problems with the placenta. A c-section is major surgery for mom. It takes longer for you to recover from a c-section than from a vaginal birth. You can expect to spend 2 to 4 days in the hospital after a c-section. Then you need about 4 to 6 weeks after you go home to fully recover. You also may have complications from the surgery, like infections and bleeding. So it's important to stay in touch with your health care provider even after you go home. Please talk to your doctor or midwife about this topic. Share your respectful thoughts and we'll add it to our article. Thanks, mom.life_USA
Are mom friends a must when you are a new mom? What about a seasoned mom? The short answer is yes, you do need mom friends.

В разговорной речи можно просто кратко отвечать yes/no/yeah

Не обязательно. Если это не деловая переписка
Ирина·
Мама двоих (3 года, 10 лет)
Согласна с девочками, которые выше ответили: в разговорной речи не обязательно. Вот в школе… институте, когда учишься, лучше с конструкцией отвечать

Диалог из Уэнсдей:
- Hi, what's your talent?
- I can read minds
- No, you can't...
- YES, I CAN!
грамматически short answers более правильны, так как содержат в себе сказуемое, без которого английский язык как Аляска без снега. Просто в качестве да/нет чаще используются yep и nope, но они совсем уж разговорные, как наши ага и неа
