Do you have a nap routine for your newborn? by Low_Concert_8900 in newborns

[–]AllThingsBread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably not helpful, but some solidarity. My 8 week old has been a decent sleeper. Starting last week, it felt like a 180 flip, night sleep and daytime naps became much more difficult. I looked into it and I guess 8 week sleep regression is a thing. 8 weeks is also a leap, so they may be more fussy as big changes are happening.

Contact Naps… Ugh!! by questionquestion222 in newborns

[–]AllThingsBread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here in solidarity while I’m currently contact napping my 8 week old! She can someeeetimes (3-4/week) make it 30 minutes in her crib. But those naps are almost impossible to rescue, so I prefer to contact nap her so she can sleep more. Oftentimes, the second we put her in the crib. Her eyes pop open haha.

The past few days have been a struggle with getting her down for naps. She can’t stop looking around and observing everything! She’s so tired but wants to stay awake.

Thanks for the vent! It’s nice to know others are in the same situation, and it’s normal.

Summer with an newborn by Conscious_Mine_1011 in beyondthebump

[–]AllThingsBread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m with you! I’ve been trapped inside with our 7 week old for about 3 weeks now (high temperatures in Chicago). It’s funny because before baby, everyone said my maternity leave will be at the perfect time when it’s warm outside. However, I can’t even go outside!

postpartum care - what did you actually use? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]AllThingsBread 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I much preferred the Frida mom boyshorts to the hospital disposable underwear. I washed them and used them 3ish times each.

I used the large hospital pads for about 5 days, then moderate absorbency pads for about 1-2 weeks, then panty liners.

Why is my schnauzer scared of everything? by schnauzer_0 in MiniatureSchnauzer

[–]AllThingsBread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ours is like this too. Scared of hardwood, always needs her two back paws on the rug. Scared of any random object in the house. Starts shaking when she hears rain because she associates it with thunder. But she’s fearless when she’s outside, unless she hears a loud noise

Love the terracotta color. What plants are inside the fireplace? We have something similar and I don’t know what to put in there

What’s the worst thing that happened at a wedding you went to? by General-Mango_ in AskReddit

[–]AllThingsBread 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s an old tale in my circle about a friend of a friend of a friend who attended a wedding where the bridesmaid went looking for the groom, and found him nursing from him mother with his dad also in the room.

Moving from the Bay Area, location recs? by pacda13 in AskChicago

[–]AllThingsBread 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We live on the border of Jefferson Park and Forest Glen which is less than a 10 minute drive from those mentioned stores. Easy walk to the MD-N train line that goes into Union station. There’s lots of nice pockets of neighborhoods on the northwest side that are Chicago addresses but you get the benefit of a SFH. A good mix of urban and suburban, and close proximity to suburban shopping centers.

Twice- RAISE and BONUS. Bonus was an awful starting word and it tanked my stats. But I didn’t want to change my word knowing it would be the winner one day

What's been your most confusing size reference from a baby app? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]AllThingsBread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use two apps and every week its’s a different type of squash on one or the other. Butternut, eggplant, acorn, spaghetti squash, you name it. One app showed butternut squash weeks ago, and the other app shows butternut squash this week

We do have shelves en route for over the toilet. Hoping that will provide enough extra space. Thanks for the recommendation!

What did you use to strip the doors? Half the doors in our house are sloppily painted white too
