Bra Problem

I found these super soft bras on clearance at Kohl’s (I got them for $1.27 a piece 🤯) anyway the price was unbeatable but they have removable pads. I HAATE removable pads because they come out in the washer and get all bent and I hate squeezing them back in their little holes. Does anyone have a hack when washing…

She's also super irritable, fuss...

Walking

My daughter’s 14 months old and not walking or standing on her own. She’ll walk holding my hands and that’s it, would much rather crawl or waddle on her knees. Should I be worried? I see others younger or around the same age walking
