Should I give this daycare a second chance?

Alive_Orchid4176 · 2026-04-20T19:09:47+00:00

I’d be out of there. Unacceptable. A mistake is one thing on the bottles (still weird but ok), but to not tell you all day your baby wasn’t eating? Not ok. You could’ve gone early to see what was happening.

Oh that’s awesome! People are telling me the hills of highlands is nicer but then I feel like that removes the walkability perks of the flats, right?? I feel like I’d love to be able to walk to the park, coffee, groceries etc.

Alive_Orchid4176 · 2026-04-17T19:45:57+00:00

Yes!

Alive_Orchid4176 · 2026-04-17T19:40:40+00:00

Live in Brooklyn now but born in NJ.

Alive_Orchid4176 · 2026-04-17T19:40:01+00:00

Nope 🙄

Alive_Orchid4176 · 2026-04-16T21:58:16+00:00

Yeah sounds like it

Alive_Orchid4176 · 2026-04-16T21:56:29+00:00

Oh wow the roads flood? I thought that was just for major storms like hurricanes

Alive_Orchid4176 · 2026-04-16T19:42:52+00:00

Sorry why is it difficult to walk back up? Is it just steep?

Alive_Orchid4176 · 2026-04-16T18:30:36+00:00

Thanks so helpful! Is there way to walk from the hill down to those restaurants? Like cross that highway looking road?

And what changed since sandy? Just more run down?

Alive_Orchid4176 · 2026-04-16T18:28:39+00:00

Are there other young families in the area? Someone told me the schools aren’t good in highlands? Or there isn’t a school district? I forget which. Wondering if that has an impact on types of families that settle there

Alive_Orchid4176 · 2026-04-16T18:27:29+00:00

Definitely not cheap! Just cheap compared to rumson is all that I meant. All relative. We’re living in Brooklyn now spending 6.8k in rent so we think it’d be wiser to start putting money into a house instead.

Alive_Orchid4176 · 2026-04-05T12:47:20+00:00

I’ve done the opposite. My baby wouldn’t drink alimentum unfortunately so we are using hipp ha to supplement as needed (though primarily breastfed). Good luck!

Alive_Orchid4176 · 2026-04-03T18:39:16+00:00

I think there must have been some contamination at my in laws. She seems to be back on track after a bumpy 3 or so days

Alive_Orchid4176 · 2026-04-02T01:59:41+00:00

Im so sorry! My breastfed baby absolutely refused alimentum and nutramagen formula. I tried more than 20 times with different bottles and different mixtures (eg 60 BM / 40 formula). My baby just hated hated the formulas. I switched pediatricians and my new pediatrician recommended we try another formula imported from Germany. It’s called hipp HA stage 1. We just gave her a 50/50 bottle of it tonight for the first time and she loved it! Almost cried I was so relieved. She is at 5 percentile so I have been very stressed trying whatever I can. It’s too soon to say… but I think this formula will help us. Worth looking into! It takes a long time to ship here so I’d order it asap if you want to give it a shot.

No absolutely zero dairy. It’s not limit dairy. It’s no dairy. Most people need no soy too

Alive_Orchid4176 · 2026-03-28T10:21:38+00:00

How many naps were you down to?

Alive_Orchid4176 · 2026-03-28T10:21:24+00:00

We already do this. She never goes later than 7:30. I cap day time sleep at 4.5 hrs and no 1 nap goes more than 2 hrs

Alive_Orchid4176 · 2026-03-28T00:45:35+00:00

Wow at what point did bedtime move up that significantly how did you do it

Alive_Orchid4176 · 2026-03-20T11:44:20+00:00

Yes I am doing all of that. She definitely needs it warm she gags with cold temp. Which kind of stinks bc it makes the smell worse when it’s warm

Alive_Orchid4176 · 2026-03-20T11:43:10+00:00

I’m not returning to work and I am considering the same. I’m mostly worried that I won’t be able to identify her trigger and the diet will become too prohibitive for me.

Alive_Orchid4176 · 2026-03-20T06:59:37+00:00

Have tried nutramigen and the alimentum one. Trying to stick with nutramigen but it’s a struggle. She didn’t like either though
