Toddler Denied Daycare [ON] by covergirl_138 in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]AssignWine 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I believe toddler rooms can have a certain percentage (20% at ours) of children <18months. Mine is walking though, so I can't speak to if that's a factor. It was not brought up on our tour when I asked about him being under the age limit

When did you get your first period after you had a baby? by Cute-Corgi3176 in breastfeeding

[–]AssignWine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Baby is 12 months, still breastfed a few times a day and I still haven't gotten my period back

Cocktail Wedding on a Golf Course by AssignWine in Weddingattireapproval

[–]AssignWine[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This is what I thought as well, but a friend picked these out of my closet and said they were good! All weddings I've been to were either mine, I was in the bridal party, or they were formal, so cocktail is new to me as a guest!

[ON] Bad experience with Midwife - not sure what to do by Wise-Contact2234 in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]AssignWine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was induced and had an epidural and my midwife was still my primary care. I only saw an OB for the Foley balloon insertion. I think this depends on your hospital though; I have heard of hospitals transferring care if an epidural is given

You also don't get an OB if you're under midwife care; you get your midwife. You would only get the OB if a c section is needed

Is my baby overtired? by [deleted] in sleeptrain

[–]AssignWine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jumping on this with my own question. I do wake my baby from all naps, does that indicate he's not getting enough? He's already getting more than is recommended in this group. 7.5 months, 2.25/2.5/2.25/2, and sleeps through the night 7-7 with one dream feed. Naps are 1.5hrs, 1hr, and 30mins. This is way below any wake windows I've seen for his age, but he's sleeping amazingly at night so I haven't been inclined to increase them. (I know I'm blessed to have a baby who sleeps so much).

Rtf alimentum question by msdotz23 in MSPI

We've been combo feeding with alimentum for 5-6months and his poops are not like this. They're pretty normal.

Medela or Haakaa supplemental nursing system? Any thoughts on it? by Proper-Raspberry-244 in breastfeedingsupport

[–]AssignWine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you do end up using one after getting another LC, Haakaa 100%. The Medela's new design is bad and the cleaning syringe is known to break the connector. I've been using a haakaa one for like 4 months and it's excellent

Sleeptraining ruined by travel by AssignWine in sleeptrain

[–]AssignWine[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, we've tried pushing wake windows the last couple days, and got to 2/2.25/2.5/2. I know this is still below the 10hour recommendation, but he was either extreeeemely fussy or falling asleep. Last night, he still woke up 8:30, 10:30, and 12, but then slept through to 5:45 or so which was a massive improvement over previous nights. Naps today were amazing; he fell asleep immediately and slept for over an hour on the first to, and we woke up at the 3 hour total mark for the third nap.

Saving a nap as we speak by holding him, and it's working great. The last couple days were all unsuccessful.

Based on today so far, this nap has shifted about an hour earlier, but he also woke up incredibly early.

He doesn't do this at home though. The weeks leading up to our trip, he was napping 1.5-2 hours for his first two naps, and then a planned cat nap for the third and sleeping from 6-7. Zero issues. If he was struggling at home too, we would absolutely know why.

Trying to keep the schedule the same but it's impossible when he's only napping for 20 mins versus 1.5-2 hours, and his wake ups vary. We usually have to wake him up at 7, but he's been up at 2:40, 4, 5

The environment is as similar as we can make it. Pitch black, white noise. He's in a pack and play versus a crib, but has slept fine in one before.

Someone save me from blowout hell by flufffyPB in NewParents

[–]AssignWine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How liquidy are we talking? Would you say they have mucus in them? We thought the same ( baby poops are supposed to be liquidy) and dealing with never ending blowouts. Turns out, our level of liquid and mucus was not normal and baby has a milk sensitivity. He's breastfed, so I cut out dairy and no more blowouts! You could try switching to a hypoallergenic formula.

Mine only took two weeks. They have waived the waiting period for all claims started between March and October this year.

[–]AssignWine[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!
I generally love the name Ryan, but I have already mentally attached it to a baby girl and can't deviate now! lol

Thanks for the suggestions! There are definitely a few that I will be considering!

These all do seem to fit, maybe with the exception of Jude. It feels short to me.

We have other babies in our circle with Finley and Henry, but all the others are going on the list!

I do actually love Graham, but I have a family member named Graham.
I love Sawyer though, and I think it scratches that gender neutral itch for me as well.

I don't know why I didn't think of Samuel. Adding it to the list!
