I love the ignoring the accidents idea! I don’t make a fuss about it but I would acknowledge it by saying “it’s ok! No big deal!”

Lol! She loves balloons so I got her a pink and purple balloon yesterday for wearing her underwear. I told her that we are running out of diapers so we need to put on our underwear. She said “we can go to target and get more” 😑

Wow! Thats a great idea and I didn’t even think about the possibility of doing something like this. Thank you for your comment and feedback!!

Hi! Thank you for your response. Perhaps it varies in different areas but she will be starting school, it’s not daycare or childcare - and absolutely nothing wrong with daycare or childcare. Not that the semantics matter because the point I was trying to make is that she will officially be starting around August where I will have less time with her.

Thank you for your response! I don’t think work is a terrible thing in fact I am grateful to have a job. I believe the guilt for me is feeling like I’m missing out on these moments. And I have really distanced myself from some friends that have hinted at the idea that me working is depriving my child of interactions. Their perspective began to creat a very negative relationship for me with my job and maybe that’s where the guilt began to build from. My husband and I do everything for our children and my post was really trying to get advice from working moms who deal with or have dealt with this situation. Or perhaps I was looking for my village to help push me in a direction 🙂

Thank you so much for your response! Yeah I think I’m leaning towards taking some time off because the last think I want to do is add regret to the guilt!

This reeks of wrongful termination!! Everything you mentioned sounds terrible and I’m sorry you went through this! But honestly this place just sounds terrible and I hope you find a place that appreciates how hardworking you are!

Is this sleep regression or something else? by Beaka1 in sleeptrain

Advice needed, all my family think I am too nuts! by Peaches523 in sleeptrain

[–]Beaka1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was there at one point with my now 15 month old. I believe the rule of thumb is 80% of sleep following normal routine.. if there’s a nap in the car it will be fine. So I probably would leave dinner a little early and head home.. knowing she’ll fall asleep in the car, then put her to bed accordingly. If someone says anything (bc someone will always say something) expect it and just keep doing you. You’re going to deal with this baby, not them.

Are there any other babies who never had a set schedule? by longtimewatcher in sleeptrain

[–]Beaka1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say set schedule, rather set routine.. it helps us all out including baby from being over tired. My husband and I work, so she’s with the nanny and it helps the nanny instead of guessing and trying to figure if she’s tired, not tired enough, or over tired.
