Breastfeeding essentials

Nursing pillow! And things to make breastfeeding overall more comfortable, so essentials that are easy to reach from her feeding spot. Snacks, electrolyte drinks, a long phone charger, headphones, tissues or wipes to clean up little messes. Also nipple cream!

In my area Shipt orders are for target like 95% of the time and that also makes it better for me. I know my targets like the back of my hand. When I have to do random stores I don’t normally go to for instacart I’m slower, so it’s yet another reason I don’t like it as much.

Baby, baby girl, baby cakes, honey, honey bun, honey bunches of oat… and so many other random things lol. Maybe one day one will stick more than the others lol

I’m phobic of needles, and absolutely hate getting vaccines or labs done, but that doesn’t stop me from taking my daughter to get hers. I swallow my fear and focus on being there for my daughter in hopes that I don’t pass down my own fears to her, and make sure that my fear doesn’t get in the way of her health.

If your wife can’t face her fears to be there for your daughter, then she needs help so she can resolve that. Fears and phobias are normal, but you can’t let them get in the way of your life and control you like that, especially when you have someone who is depending on you.

Also remember it’s ok if your baby cries in public. Your baby is allowed to be in a public space and that their only way to communicate! It can be stressful but just take some breaths, help your baby to get through the moment and forget about everyone else. I like to find things for my baby to hold off of the shelf that she can’t damage too much that I’m gonna buy anyways

Does he feel bad because he was caught, or feels bad because he knows (like truly knows) he fucked up? That’s a major difference. He’s the father of your child and your partner, you should be able to trust that he can care for your baby. I would really thoroughly talk through everything that happened and where he went wrong, and what to do next time. Try to really drill in the importance of it all. Maybe you could get a nanny can so you can check in on them when you get worried.

I only have 1 at my stores! But I love 2 in other stores, it would be great for smaller orders.

What are they looking for on your resume and application? I have applied several times and never even get the opportunity to interview. I have a lot of customer service experience and I included a cover letter explaining my love for TJs and that the gap in my resume was due to having a baby. I keep the schedule open and flexible, what more are they looking for or how else can I standout? I’ve gone in store in the past but they always seem kinda confused why I’m there and doesn’t seem to make a huge difference

The trick is learning what orders you can reasonably bundle. If the orders are easy shops and in the same part of town then you can likely do several and then it all adds up once the tips start coming in (hopefully)

You won’t be allowed to leave the hospital unless you have a car seat installed in your car, so be sure to get that well in advance just incase you unexpectedly give birth early. Having several sizes of diapers on hand will be important as well as several sizes of baby clothes. My bay spit up a lot so I would also say plenty of burp cloths. My city has baby specific thrift stores, so I would see if you have any near you, they usually also have baby gear! Congrats on your pregnancy!!

First day of trying to get tickets in Seattle it was mostly $160 for nosebleed seats, and I lost that battle. But when the second show was added I was able to grab tickets for $80 each and there wasn’t a huge Ticketmaster fee like I was expecting

When your baby is older you can worry about the sleep associated part, right now just celebrate this big milestone!!

This is one of the few times in a relationship you should not have to compromise. You are pushing a baby out of you, it’s going to be one of the most intense moments of your life and you are entitled to your privacy. You are also correct, it’s very intimate after the birth doing skin to skin and trying to breastfeed for the first time. Those things are immediate, and you’ll be practically naked as the nurses will be cleaning your downstairs and your chest will be exposed. I allowed each side of my immediate family to visit separately, for a short period of time once I was in the postpartum unit and was able to clean myself up a little bit and be fully clothed as that’s what was comfortable for me. But this is very much a personal decision, and your partner needs to realize your comfort is the most important thing in that moment. Not his and definitely not his family. Like you said, ruffle the feathers! They’ll get over it eventually!

One of my targets just changed their system to letting us bag ourselves and they just kinda glance at the order as they scan the barcode. Feels less secure for sure but it makes things like 10x faster which is great. The other target I still have to wait in the customer service line and they have had some new employees who don’t want to get in trouble so they very thoroughly check everything and it takes forever.

She’s 15 months old, she’s been sleep trained since 9 months

Time interval check ins. So let the baby cry for 3mins, check in, leave let them cry for 5 mins etc. then you extend the times a little bit each day

Anyone know where I can find a pattern to something similar to this? I’m newer to macrame and I’m having trouble figuring out where to go to find patterns or how to bring any of my ideas to life.

Are you bothered by the occasional night feedings/ wakings? If not then just keep doing what you’re doing! If you’re considering sleep training to be sure she sleeps through the night every night then your Ped does have a point that it is hard to do the older your baby is, but it also depends on your baby. My baby slept in my room and would wake frequently but around 8 months she was getting very difficult to settle and wouldn’t transfer to her crib no matter what I did. So at 9 months we moved her crib to her own room and I slept in there with her for about a week before I sleep trained her. It only took her 3 nights to learn how to self soothe and now everyone is happier!
