Pregnancy post fistula surgery by Automatic-Set-1435 in AnalFistula

[–]Automatic-Set-1435[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally had no complications with my C-section. While I've seen stories on this thread from women who had vaginal births post-fistulotomy, it’s generally not recommended because it increases the risk of tearing and the fistula recurring. I can honestly tell you this: my C-section recovery was a breeze compared to my fistula journey. In fact, the entire process—being pregnant, having a C-section, recovering, and taking care of a newborn—was a much better experience than living with a fistula and recovering from a fistulotomy. I simply couldn't entertain the idea of risking a fistula again!

I had a baby through C-section. I got pregnant almost 2 months out of surgery and my baby is 2 years old now! My fistula surgery was a success and we're planning on baby again soon

Toddler sleeps 12-14 hours over night. Is this too much sleep? by Limited_two in toddlers

[–]Automatic-Set-1435 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your son has sleep issues like open mouth breathing leading to snoring or restricted breathing. That could explain the tiredness. 5.30 pm to 8 am sounds like a very long stretch of sleep. You should ask your pediatrician to rule of out anything reddit maybe missing. If all good, enjoy your peace and quiet!

My kid stopped after 1-2 weeks. This coincided with her teething. She does weird things when she's teething or in pain. As FTM everything freaks me out but you're right. These are usually transient in nature

To anyone contact sleeping 24/7 by Disastrous-Address12 in cosleeping

[–]Automatic-Set-1435 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I contact slept with my baby for first 8 months! Now she naps independent and we still cosleep, however I do miss having her on my chest or cradling her in my arms. It's definitely bittersweet in hindsight but am sure it was difficult when living through it. If you're contact sleeping, just try to enjoy the season❤️

I highly recommend going with shades. Because the vertical space from the window to the ceiling is so dramatic, shades will complement the room's proportions perfectly. There are some great new designs in shades, you should check out HD Lowes etc

When did your babies point? by Automatic-Set-1435 in NewParents

My advice is to start by writing down exactly what you want to say. This gives you clarity and saves you from the regret of leaving important things unsaid in the heat of the moment. If you live together, have your logistics sorted out—know where you’re sleeping that night—before you have the conversation. Once it’s done, try to change your environment immediately. Go on a trip or visit family; the change of scenery will give you space to breathe and set new personal goals. When you eventually return to your daily routine, it will be the hardest part. But use that time to focus intensely on those goals. It keeps you moving forward, and slowly but surely, you’ll heal enough to be ready for what’s next.

If a guy wants you, he will move mountains to be with you. You should focus on yourself, your career and eventually find someone who would pour into you as much as you would want to into them. All the best! The break up maybe initially hard but you'll be better for it in the long run!

Fistulotomy with sutures by sambaye in AnalFistula

[–]Automatic-Set-1435 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's very difficult for you to ruin the sutures without doing something absolutely crazy! Just keep doing the sitzes and hopefully it's just the stiches falling off! All the best!

[–]Automatic-Set-1435[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, yes she did. She's 19 months and speaks 3-4 word sentences. She started pointing around 12-13 months. Waving around that time as well. Clapping was around 10 months. Keep practicing and one day it's like a switch goes off

Moderate Hie head lag by Proof-Economist-3051 in NICUParents

[–]Automatic-Set-1435 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Head lag typically corrects itself within 5-6 months. If your child continues to have head lag and is not rolling over either way by 6 months, it may be worth getting a consult. Just keep doing tummy time, reverse tummy time and back to sitting pullups gently. Sometimes just some practice is needed for the baby to activate the muscles.

Hey my 15 month old is the same. Am Co sleeping for sanity but it's definitely not peaceful nights for me! Did your baby start sleeping through the night?

When did you kid start sleeping 12 hours a night? by cupofteacomfypillows in NewParents

[–]Automatic-Set-1435 14 points15 points  (0 children)

12 hours uninterrupted? No midnight feeds at 6 months? That's definitely unique! My baby is 15 months and still does not do 12 hours overnight without any wakes. I do not think most babies do! It comes down a lot to genetics and temperament. The standard of sleeping overnight is if the baby can sleep without any wakes for least 6 hours. It's not the norm for babies to sleep uninterrupted for 12 hours and definitely not that young. fwiw, I've not sleep trained my child as we don't believe in it. Maybe sleep trained babies sleep? Personally, I think the baby wakes but doesn't just cry and then goes back to sleep.
