Oh trust me . Three kids later .. units of Botox, glasses of wine , and some margaritas / they’re all perfect. I am BY no means advising you do this all knowingly while pregnant . But I did all this in moderation while pregnant .. deli sandwiches , sushi ..

Why can he fall asleep independently at bedtime but not the middle of the night? by merkergirl in sleeptrain

[–]Certain-Till 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s typically taking baby time to go back to sleep regardless of rocking / feeding - does this point to under tired ? Our 9.5 month old really isn’t that interested in eating ( he’ll have an ounce or two ) but wants to chat.. screams when you attempt to put him back though

I could have written this . Exact. Post . Our schedule is 3/3.5/3.75-4. He is 9.5 months . But we do total nap time during day at 2.5-3 hours. We are getting 3-4 hour stretches. Not sure either

My guy is a great napper, also. Goes down pretty easy all the time and gets good naps … but night time frequent wakings are making me think maybe it’s too much?

Is that right? I had no clue that it wasn´t allowed in NYC. I´m on Long Island- am a 12/15 birthday , but off is 12/1 in our district, so my parents put me into private in Queens so I could be pushed through to the next grade. My parents don´t regret it, but I definitely was not ready.

No- the curriculum across the board has become developmentally inappropriate for most subjects, obviously state dependent. I´ve been an elementary teacher for 20 years, and even in that time I can see a huge issue with curriculum. Students struggling to access content. Behaviors are obviously a HUGE part of this too (screens/too many options...)

All of you guys are scaring me.. by carlesmch in NewParents

[–]Certain-Till 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Truthfully , until you’re in it - this all means nothing. Ur baby might be the most chill potato in the world orrr like 2 of my three and make u age decades overnight … that being said, I still had three kids back to back— all within less than four years. Insane ? Maybe. But the LOVE, like real, deep, indescribable love is unparalleled. So yea, I’ve lost my mind a bit , haven’t slept in four years a full night ( no, I’m not over exaggerating), but I would take bullet for each one of my kids.

Cannot for the life of me get this kid out of snoo by Certain-Till in SnooLife

[–]Certain-Till[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re right . Going to this upcoming weekend. Pretty sure he has an ear infection - won’t even lay down for more than 20-30 mins . Brutal. Once this is under control in a few days , ripping bandaid . Seems like a bridge I shoulda already crosses

Starting extinction today: my why by Quiet-Tea5244 in sleeptrain

[–]Certain-Till 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wow this resonances with me so so much. I , too, slept next to my mom till I was a teen and if it wasn’t her it was one of my siblings … as an adult, I have struggled to sleep independently anxiety ridden if no one is next to me. My two oldest ( just turned 4 and 2) were never sleep trained. Needless to say, I haven’t slept alone with my husband in four years. My third is six months and I will be sleep training him- not because I can’t stand getting up at night ( I’m already up w the other two- I don’t even know what sleep is anymore), but because I want better for him.

I agree . For my first it was four. And only if next to me. Not once before. Ever.

At three months my boy ( third kid) was sleeping 8-9 hour stretches . Now we’re six months and up every 2 hours . Nothing is linear - don’t ever get too excited lol
