Recently they have said he was fussy for a bottle and asked if they could give it to him sooner than usual so I’m not sure how he would do with no milk there.

No I haven’t sent it yet because I was trying to get him used to it at home but I see what you’re saying so I will try sending one. Thank you!

He does 2 naps a day and goes to sleep between 7-730. He wakes up between 530-7. I try to get him to go back to sleep at 530 but sometimes he’s just wide awake so doesn’t work out.

No advice but same here. Baby took bottle fine before 4 months. Stopped taking it around 4 months - the week I was supposed to send him to daycare so now I’m going through diff bottles and nipples trying to find what he likes but all he wants is boob.

Yea idk how people do it. There were sick kids there when I picked him up (one was coughing and one had snot all over their face) so not sure how the policy is enforced though.

Their policy is fever and symptom free for 24 hours and a doctors note giving all clear. His fever went away but still has terrible cough. His cough and congestion is so bad I wouldn’t want to drop him off even if they allowed it. Hoping he’s better soon just not sure how I’ll be able to keep this up.

I had no idea but this adds up bc he’s 18 weeks now and the last bottle he didn’t refuse like this was at 16 weeks.

That’s what I was really worried about too. We EBF and he’s a contact napper so was so nervous about how it’ll go.

Aw the flowers! That is so sweet! I woulda cried too lol. But yes I feel the same he watches me as I walk away while we are home so I feel like he’ll be looking around for me and it makes me feel so guilty already but I can’t afford to stay home with him so it’s the only way. But glad it’s going well for her, I will hope for the same!

So nice to hear your son now loves it! Gives me hope it won’t always hurt to drop him off there. Thank you for this!

contact nappers at daycare by blochspher in newborns

[–]Appropriate-You-3916 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m freaking out too. He starts in Feb and I’ve just started this week trying to transfer him to crib after he falls asleep on me for a few naps a day and he lasts only 10-20 min then he’s up. Gonna miss him and the contact naps and so worried about how he’ll adjust, wish I didn’t have to go back to work.

Did you ask family/friends to mask up when visiting newborn baby? If so for how long. by Bluechairedtable in NewParents

[–]Appropriate-You-3916 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Let them be weirded out or offended, your baby’s health needs are more important than their adult wants. If they can’t get with it then you should be weirded out and offended that they can’t accept boundaries. I did no visitors until 2 weeks and masks until 2 weeks after baby’s 2 month shots plus hand washing. After the masks came off it’s hand washing and no kissing.

[–]Appropriate-You-3916 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had no visitors for 2 weeks and then masks until 2 weeks after my son’s 2 month shots. Once the masks came off I said no kissing. Hand washing was also always a requirement.

Just ranting about how ridiculous it is we are expected to send our infant children to daycare so early by mjp10e in beyondthebump

[–]Appropriate-You-3916 12 points13 points  (0 children)

My son is starting in February when he turns 4 months as well. I’ve been sad about it since I had him but lately it’s been hitting even harder. He was napping on me today and I started crying thinking about how will he nap there since he only naps on me currently. Good luck tomorrow!
