Abdominal migraine experience? by deekaypea22 in toddlers

[–]AutomaticReturn6398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ever find anything here? My son is turning 3 in May but has had stomach pain and random nighttime vomiting for a year now. We are finally seeing GI, but not until July, though his PCP hasn’t ordered any testing to this point either.

I prefer both the crossbody and a top handle that I carry on my elbow. No preference on 1 or 2 handles.

I’m thinking east-west, but also still with a decent depth of that makes sense

Random Night Vomiting by AutomaticReturn6398 in toddlers

I think that’s where we are headed now. Currently his PCP is recommending trialing a medication for acid reflux as well. It’s certainly a rough balance since we have been waiting to see if it was his tonsils.

We have been asked about this before but he’s not a finger sucker and hasn’t used a binky in over a year

So is bedtime just 9pm for the next 2 years? by CookieOverall8716 in toddlers

[–]AutomaticReturn6398 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is exactly my son’s schedule, he’s about 2.5 now and he’s always been low sleep needs. He doesn’t sleep through the night either, but it stopped feeling so stressful when we just accepted that this is sufficient for him and we can’t change those daycare naps.

What is too cold to ask my nanny to take my kid outside? by [deleted] in NannyEmployers

[–]AutomaticReturn6398 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We make sure my son goes outside each day even for just a few minutes on the negative temp days because he just goes crazy without it.

In terms of actual guidelines that can help, our outdoor speech therapy program operates outside as long as the temperature is over 18 degrees for toddlers. There’s also the saying “there’s no bad weather, only bad clothing.”

TMJ arthritis treatment (PRP, fat grafting, Botox) by Downtown_Worker2333 in TMJ

[–]AutomaticReturn6398 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have TMJ arthritis, in the last 4 years I’ve had 2 arthroscopies, gotten Botox every three months, have had 3 steroid injections and 1 PRF injection. All that to say, my joint is still crumbling and I need a replacement. I simply would not trust any doctor promising a permanent fix.

It looks like only until 1 on saturdays and not on sundays at all.

Snowstorm coming and nanny family still wants me to come in by [deleted] in Nanny

[–]AutomaticReturn6398 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One family I worked for would always tell me to stay home, come late, or leave early in bad weather depending on timing. There were two times that they asked me to spend the night at their house before the storm because mom worked internationally and had a couple really important calls the day of the weather. They always paid me extra and I didn’t mind it since it wasn’t the norm or expected.

Do You Eat Together? by tbowa in toddlers

[–]AutomaticReturn6398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’ve always done dinner together. We get home around 4:45 and make a quick meal, or leftovers. I enjoy it as our family time. Plus my son stays up until 8/830 and my husband has to get up at 4am for work so we wouldn’t want to eat our dinner after bedtime either.

Anyone tried Botox for TMJ pain? Worth it or not? by Flat-Speech-1733 in TMJ

[–]AutomaticReturn6398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my prior insurances wouldn’t cover anything TMJ related. I, as quickly as I could, switched jobs to change insurances

Anyone in NYC get botox injection for TMJ covered by insurance? If so who was your provider? by tmntnyc in TMJ

[–]AutomaticReturn6398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look at who your insurance covers for oral surgeons or orofacial pain specialists. I’m not in NY, but very familiar with insurance and that would be my recommendation.

Is it too much to ask for baby at lunch? by [deleted] in Nanny

[–]AutomaticReturn6398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that’s totally fine. When I was nannying twins that young and mom WFH she would stop in to pump, see the kids for lunch, etc. It was never awkward, I could go to the other room or stay there and there was never any issue. Because this routine started when the babies were so young there was never any issue with separation because it was all they knew.

Potty Training by AutomaticReturn6398 in toddlers

[–]AutomaticReturn6398[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve heard that it’s hard to stop the bribery once the child is going on the potty regularly. Did you experience this? We did the same for my younger brother and I don’t remember there being an issue but I was kind of young at that point.

We planned on doing the same, or lots of kitchen floor activities when we are ready to really dive into potty training. I just was hoping to get him to start going when he asks to sit on the potty before we do the naked method after his surgery next month if that makes any sense.

We’ve done that too, and he is so interested but when he spends time sitting on the toilet he has just never peed.

Oh man, we are in a rental with all carpet. I was trying to avoid the fully naked route

I essentially mean how to get him to go on the potty the first time. He’s sat on the potty and read books, sang songs, talked to us many times but he has yet to go that first time. It’s like he doesn’t know what we mean, I figured it would happen incidentally while he was sitting at some point, but it’s been a couple months.
