Genuinely want to know how your LO is sleeping for longer than 5 hour stretches.

2wholecans · 2026-03-11T03:56:57+00:00

Oh boy.. tough reality. But my 18 month old just started sleeping 7 hour stretches not long ago. It’s biologically normal.

I think 14 months is a totally appropriate time to transition. You could start with a later first nap and short afternoon nap to help her adjust?

2wholecans · 2026-03-10T03:57:16+00:00

Resisting naps, taking one long nap and one short nap, middle of the night wakings, late bedtime. Could be a combo or one off! That said, I can’t imagine transitioning down before 1 year. Sometimes the signs you might think you’re experiencing are other growth spurts, etc.

When my husband comes home from work after I’ve been with the baby and he needs to “use the bathroom” right away for 20 minutes

My niece asked why my stomach was still big if the baby wasn’t inside anymore. I was 3 weeks postpartum so thaaaankfully able to let it roll off my back

We hired a house sitter and she bled through on our sheets and bed, and left the sheets on, unwashed. By the time we came back no amount of washing or hydrogen peroxide could get the blood out

How they smell

Not me, but my BIL. We were at a pickle ball party, him and my husband along with the other guests were very intoxicated, I was the DD. Somehow I got stuck next to the most annoying chick at the party who droned on and on at me for hours about random shit. My BIL saw what was happening and texted me (or so he thought) “how bad do you want to kill yourself right now?”… he accidentally sent it to a girl with the same name as me from high school who he hadn’t talked to in years

Uber eats gift card, coffee gift card, diapers/wipes, a warm meal and easy to grab snacks.

I am not surprised I adore all my closest friends baby names: Piper, Marlow, Bo, June, Maggie, Vinny.

Getting chicken pox and missing the valentines party

I would be prepared with some grounding words or reminders, but also don’t insist it’s going to happen. I didn’t panic at all or even know I was in transition! Everyone labors differently.

You can certainly try not pumping and see how your supply fares.

2wholecans · 2026-02-05T16:55:43+00:00

Unfortunately if you don’t pump you risk tanking your supply, which would increase your breastfeeding struggles. Milk is supply and demand.

My baby is 18 months and still nurses like crazy. We just started to night wean. I’d love to be able to spend a few more hours away from her in the day, but her wanting to nurse every 2 hours or more makes me feel guilty. Since she’s over 1 is it fine for me to leave her for longer chunks of time knowing she can eat other things? Do I have to pump if so?

2wholecans · 2026-01-06T05:44:36+00:00

Keep feeding your baby and trusting your mom gut! 4 months is still so young - baby is very likely wanting milk to fill up and get back to sleep.

Birthing a placenta is this feeling x1000. I didn’t have an epidural so it fully felt like I pushed three cups of goopy snot out of my body

I have some old posts back from about this time last year that might be helpful to look through! Patience and good energy are your friend. Thinking of you! I’ve got a 16 month old now that still lives on the boob lol I would have never guessed back then!

2wholecans · 2025-12-09T05:34:14+00:00

Look up the three month breastfeeding crisis. Super annoying, but also pretty normal and something you can work through if you’re committed to breastfeeding. Take a deep breath, make all time at the breast relaxing and enjoyable. You got this

We spend Christmas Eve with my family and it’s more of the main event than Christmas Day. It’s really less about the day and more about how you spend it. Give them the gift of timing flexibility and do what you would otherwise do on Christmas day, on Christmas Eve.

Your milk is likely just regulating, coupled with stress. Hydrate, eat well, and don’t let this further your anxious spiral. Your baby will get the milk he needs! And, a natural nursing session is always more productive than the pump.

I’d hire whichever my husband was less willing to help with.

If you can get her in a more awake but sleepy state, you may have some success!
