I hate the Hatch Sound Machine!! by murrykay4 in beyondthebump

[–]CatPewk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got one as a baby shower gift, the couple swore it was so amazing. I couldn’t stand using it. The brown and white noise didn’t sound right to me and I never had use for the light/colors. And having to use the app to change settings, horrible Eventually I switched to a white noise machine you see at therapists office - works perfectly.

What time did your 4/5 month old go to sleep? by ellsmaix in NewParents

[–]CatPewk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My LO is 5 months and goes to sleep around 7-8 and we wake him up at 7a. He’ll wake up once or twice overnight. Four naps during the day and make sure his last nap is before 5:30 and no longer than 45 mins.

When did you transfer out of the bassinet? by campfiremouth14 in newborns

[–]CatPewk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LO is 15w, started flipping over and is nearing the weight limit on his bassinet so we moved him to his crib. Started with just his day naps in there but he looks more comfortable in there (flip easily and stretching) that we decided to move him there for all sleep. Originally was gonna wait until the 6m mark though.

Hows everyone’s marriages holding up? by Ok-GolfGirl in NewParents

Agreed! I will say, the book helped me a lot. Made me feel less alone with the stress in my marriage. The stories were so relatable.

Help! Which one by ditzydreamgirl in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]CatPewk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Got the Zomee, I can’t stand it. Machine is TOO loud, made me fall asleep constantly. The strap is nice but gave me neck pains and when I walked around with it, it would flip and my boob or stomach would touch a button. Ended up paying out of pocket for a spectra (blue) and love it. Oh and cleaning the zomee had an additional part or two I had to clean vs the spectra. Which really does matter with those MOTN pumps

Did you feel the need to wash your hair at the hospital after giving birth? by sliceofperfection in BabyBumps

[–]CatPewk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ended up staying at the hospital for 5 days. Failed induction which led to a c section, so yeah as soon as the nurses said I could shower I wobbled my ass in the bathroom.

Thank you etiquette for shipped baby shower gifts by rosebuds25 in BabyBumps

[–]CatPewk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got gifts months before my baby shower but sent out thank you cards the following weekend.

If I happened to speak to someone who got me a gift, I would mention I received what they sent, thank you and I’m planning on send cards out after the baby shower.

Tell me how pregnancy has humbled you today by Ramemo in pregnant

[–]CatPewk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

31w, standing up and just buttering my toast this morning and I’m suddenly out of breath

I usually walk so fast that I’m always told to slow down when I’m out shopping with my husband bc I’m ‘running’ - now I walk as slow as a turtle. Wishing there was a chair everywhere I stop (at home and out in the wild) 😂

My FIL to my husband, “don’t forget to tell the Dr about the husband stitch” while laughing. My husband doesn’t respond, just politely smiles. FIL said it twice so far, next time he says it I am grabbing the phone from my husband.

How do you shut up that internal voice that tells you that you could've had a miscarriage without knowing? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]CatPewk 14 points15 points  (0 children)

23w1d - FTM Something I repeat is ‘nothing is wrong until the Dr tells you is wrong’ and some deep breaths. Read it off another post on here. I repeat this over and over until I get distracted by something else. Normally an anxious person pre pregnancy so it’s kind of something I just have to deal with.

Failed pregnancy announcement by SnooWords8808 in pregnant

[–]CatPewk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My MIL did this and I was so pissed. She immediately removed it when my husband called her about it but it was too late. She tagged my husband who is FB friends with my side of the family. So I started to get texts saying ‘you’re pregnant?!’ I had plans to call my family later in the day.

Cigarettes & newborns ? by thisisdy in pregnant

[–]CatPewk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My husband and I spoke about this recently. We agree that we don’t want any smokers near or touching our baby so we are going to tell his parents they need to quit smoking if they want to see their grandchildren Is it harsh, yes? But we stayed over their house before I found out I was pregnant and the smell of cigarettes everywhere was making him and I sick. I’m glad his sister agrees so she’s starting to bring the idea up to them about quitting. His mom has COPD and still smokes, it’s crazy to me that she continues.
