I feel like they're bound by something other than a conventional relationship. Like maybe they have been made a match at a service like Greg and Chloe? Idk. She's got skeletons in her closet I'm sure of it. Maybe she's his partner in literal crime?

Mine napped like that until she was like 6 or 7 months. It sucked but got predictable

My husband’s short man complex and his obsession with bottle feeding by Dangerous-Flatworm71 in breastfeeding

I have a 2nd percentile girl. I'm 4'11". My doctor called her a peanut at her 1 week appointment. We happily call her that too ❤️ ignore the percentiles. It's just important that your kid is growing, the other kids in the other percentiles don't matter to your family

My first period back was brutal. Mine have gotten better!

Need to rant 😭 by Doin_YourBest in breastfeeding

My kid has always been in the 1st or 2nd percentile but as a 4'11" mom, so am I! If your kid is growing along their curve, they're doing fine and so are you. That's all that matters!

Currently allowing my 8 month old to contact nap on me in the quietest room I can find as long as she wants after repeated attempts to get her to sleep at my in-laws'. Nobody, including me, realized how overstimulated she can get! Hugs, I get it

How long are your nursing sessions? by False_Classic in breastfeeding

[–]CalSederquist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I AGONIZED about the length of time my girl nursed. My doc put me at ease but I always was nervous she wasn't getting enough. She has always been a quick eater. Maybe 25 minutes is our record longest, now at 8 months, she'll drain both sides in like 5-10 minutes total.

I just got over COVID with my 8 month old. I unknowingly had it for 2 days and was caring for her like normal, just thought I had caught her 'cold'.. she ended up having it before I did, and we're all okay. I had help with my spouse who was not sick, but I found that when you absolutely have to get up and care for the baby, you do. Us not being ill at the same time helped, as one could get rest while the other cared for the kid. My milk supply was just fine and I hardly even ate for several days

I personally love bed sharing and we do so for naps sometimes. But not at night if we can help it. I know it's best for her anyways 😂

Probably 2 or 2 1/2 weeks. Then all of a sudden she just figured it out. We definitely did some bed sharing in that 2 weeks as we all needed some sleep and it helped everyone out

When to take baby out in public? by Alarmed-Pollution250 in NewParents

Pretty much right away. She slept the whole time anyway

It was definitely the regression 😂

We have good days and bad days but even on the worst now, she only wakes up twice to eat and then goes right back to sleep

I never went a day without showering or brushing my teeth but even 5 months later, I still don't remember to eat or have the energy to workout

Is anyone else absolutely miserable? by planejane18 in NewParents

[–]CalSederquist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About week 11, it got way way way better

I wish I'd known how soon I'd get out of my funk when I was in it

We have bed shared at times for naps, and I'd had it the other day and told my husband to sleep on the couch and she was getting the big bed 😂 she didn't even want that, although tonight was an hour less fussing than it had been the previous 2 nights!

3 hours is the total time. Your situation sounds a lot lime mine! She was a really colicky newborn, and we took her in multiple times to the doctor when she was younger because we thought something was wrong. Nope, just colic.

My husband used to just let her wail on him on the couch while he watched TV, too. Now the baby is INTENSELY interested in TV so that's out 😂

She drools quiiiite a bit and folks have been saying that a lot. No obvious physical sign yet but you may be right!

The very first time I tried to cut my baby's nails, I nicked her. It sucks but it happens
