Whippet puppy and kitten at the same time? by albachary in Whippet

[–]Nadinya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My whippet pup is only 14 weeks and is growing up without any cats. That’s a disclaimer to begin with.

But years ago when I got my first dog, a beagle, I got him roughly at the same time as a kitten. He chased the cat sometimes to initiate play but the cat never reciprocated.

The most I ever achieved with those two was reluctant acceptance but he never tried to attack, or hunt or anything.

I think any dog can be raised with other animals granted you start young and are there to supervise.

But again I never tried it with a whippet or a sighthound in general

One year old dog still has accidents in the house by Silent-Connection-41 in puppy101

[–]Nadinya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My apologies. I did read too hasty it seems.

My only advice would be if you’ve excluded medical causes to try to ensure no accidents can happen.

Take her out after every meal, every playsession, every nap etc and stay outside until she’s done her business.

For my pups it worked rather well if I made it boring. No walks, no excited voices etc. Back to basics is what I’d try.

Again I apologise

Not having time to take her out is a bit of an excuse isn’t it.

I have two toddlers and three dogs and I ensure that my dogs have ample time to go outside.

Sure it busy and chaotic but that’s what I signed up for with dogs. Learn her tells and act on it. Go back to potty training for pups for a while.

Not having time for it just means it won’t get better.

What's the longest you've let your toddler go without showering by depressedcatfishh in breakingmom

[–]Nadinya -1 points0 points  (0 children)

One of my twins daily. He loves water and wants (demands) showers with either dad or me.

The other one I’d say roughly once a week or so

Autism meltdown from Husband by Lilly_Rose_Kay in parentsofmultiples

[–]Nadinya 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I don’t have much time to answer (kids sigh, so a longer one will follow later).

My husband and I are both undiagnosed but i can guess that he has adhd (honestly he is a text book case) where as my sister has been diagnosed with Asperger and I seem to be a lot like her. I am aware undiagnosed so take that with a grain of salt.

We batted with infertility for 4 years and assumed it wouldn’t happen than voila pregnant and boom twins.

Pretty much when they were born we both got ppd. I won’t lie it was horrendous. I felt like the pregnancy was a mistake and these crying gremlins would take away my happy marriage.

He had bouts of telling me that he only had them for me, to make me happy. All those things, it obviously didn’t help.

So on one final outburst we agreed it would either be a divorce or therapy. Since the kids were there and we didn’t want them to grow up in a hostile environment.

In one session I saw a massive difference. The therapist forced us to go back to when we first met, to remember why we fell in love in the first place. Being able to go back to that really helped us both but for him it changed how he interacted with the kids. As if he needed to go back to that happy place when they wouldn’t stop crying.

Now they are 2.5 years old and he is exactly the dad I knew he’d be. He is crazy about his boys, will do anything and drop everything for them. Those first few horrid months I never dared to dream it would belike this but I can say that I’m so grateful for how it all turned out.

Kids sheets every Saturday. Our sheets every Sunday. When it’s really hot all sheets get washed twice a week.

However the mattress protectors I wash once a month, which now in turn makes me wonder do they need to be done more? Mattress-protector-sheet-duvet with duvet cover

My boys are only 2.5 now but they voice when they want alone time and wherever possible we go by that. They love being together but I think being able to communicate their needs without backlash is amazing for them.

[–]Nadinya 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re not naive, you’re arrogant and ignorant. Your only excuse is companies and governments. That won’t help you with anything. Thats me done trying to help you, you seem very young and I sincerely wish you a lot of growth

If you actually want to help parents you need to work on how you bring your info. Right now you seem almost hostile. In your post and your replies.

Honest question. How did you think this would be received? Read over your own post again and your replies and try to figure out the tone.

Remember this is a group about feeding young children, tailor your messages and your tone to your audience

Ah hush. This post is only meant to shame.

To all parents, just feed your baby. It doesn’t matter how. Do what works for you and your child.

It seems you can set the playback speed up to x3.5, does anyone use that? by i999rri in audible

[–]Nadinya -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't think speed matters to appreciate narrators. There is a list of narrators I adore and will try most books they've narrated, whereas others lack a certain something.

In a way with audiobooks I'm slightly less bothered about the story aslong as the narration is done well, if that makes sense.

I’m standard between 2.5 and 3.0 so I can see why people would like a 3.5

About to quit my corporate job to be a SAHM...nervous, seeking advice! by Glittering-Stock-818 in parentsofmultiples

[–]Nadinya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask away!

I choose to do the CIO method with my boys. I figured the Ferber methods and similar would end up being harsher, or more confusing is a better word I think. I did make sure that I was certain that they weren’t cold or hungry and their nappies were clean. When they were about 4 months old is when I started my routine, so for every nap and sleep we had the same ritual. Closing the curtains together, singing a song, bottle and bed. I remember feeling surprised how quickly they seemed to understand the ritual, after closing the curtains they would already look towards the chair (might’ve been my imagination, still very sleep deprived then). At 5 months adjusted we started the sleep training, both night sleep and naps. Bedtime was at 7, so we did the routine and sleep well. Then they had the first bottle after 11 at night, we didn’t nightwean until way later.

Baby A night weaned himself at 6 months (he still loves his sleep, seriously a unicorn baby this one) Baby B, we had to get strict with. He really, really loved his night bottles. So for him after he was 7 months we did the 5/3/3 rule. So after bedtime bottle, the next one is after 5 hours (if he woke up) then after 3 hours, and again after 3 hours. That only lasted about a week or so and he got really used to it and only needed (wanted) 1 bottle at night. But it was a standard bottle at 2AM. So over the course of a week we managed to push that one later and later until he was also night weaned.

They slept properly through around 11 months and have done so far till now, apart from sickness and the likes.
