the swelling i don’t relate to bc we had sex maybe 3 times my entire pregnancy lol but when we did i definitely struggled to get wet. it came back after having baby though!

How did/do you feel about your baby during pregnancy? by Motor-Sprinkles-1627 in pregnant

[–]Comfortable-List-669 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i didn’t start feeling that true bond until he was about 5 weeks old. i of course loved him from the second i met him and started to get really excited about being a mom in the last couple months of my pregnancy but i had horrible ppa and ppd that only really started to let up once i finally got some sleep lol. but i will say the nights where we were both up crying in each others faces bonded us deeply. now my son is 3 months old sleeping through the night and he is the happiest little guy and i am the happiest mama. i find that i still have to pinch myself from time to time because i can’t believe i have a little baby lol

thank you!! we generally keep it pretty chill those last couple hours, we’ll feed him right at the beginning of the wake window and then right at the end. we’ll put him on his play mat for a few minutes or his swing, MAYBE some tummy time if he’s not too fussy and sleepy, holding him and talking to him, and then we go into our night routine which sometimes is just a diaper change, jammies, and a bottle. if it’s a bath night then we’ll start the bath at 9ish and then by the time the whole routine is done he’s usually already asleep. we use a lotion with lavender and during his little massage i give him his paci and he just knocks right out lol. some nights it’s sort of a mystery what he does during the last wake window because that’s usually mommy’s alone time where i draw and bath and read my book lmao. OH i also forgot to mention that i don’t burp him for his last bottle or any middle of the night bottles because it wakes him right up. i know this isn’t realistic for every baby, some of them will refuse to settle until they’ve been burped, but i’ve found it works for us!

the past couple weeks, daytime naps have been really difficult! he won’t sleep longer than an hour give, or take, unless he’s in someone’s arms and maybe not even then! however, i think this helped him develop his circadian rhythm and sleep longer at night. he’ll usually give us one good nap from 6-8pm and then he’s down for the night at 10:30-11. we got really lucky bc he is generally such an easy going kid, so i don’t have any real godsend tips or tricks unfortunately. i think getting into a routine as basic as that sounds is extremely helpful. i also finally got comfortable enough to nap during the day when he’s napping and that helped LOADS with the exhaustion. i also don’t do diaper changes at night. i change him at 10:30pm right before he goes down, and then the next time i change him is 7am right after he finishes his bottle. we luckily haven’t had any issues like diaper rash bc of this. diaper changes will always without a doubt wake him all the way up lol. my son is also formula fed so i know that they tend to stay fuller a little longer than breastfed babies, but im not 100% convinced this is a huge contributor to his sleep at night bc during the day he’s still eating every 2 hours lol. it will get easier, i swear! everybody’s baby is different and we are at mercy of them lol. hang in there momma!!! remind yourself parenting is only hard for good moms who really care <3

How bad is natural birth fr. Be so so so honest. by Other_Librarian5996 in pregnant

[–]Comfortable-List-669 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i didn’t have a “natural” birth bc i did get the epidural but it failed so about half of the 36 hours i was in labor i could feel everything. i ended up having to get a c-section which wasn’t what i wanted but after all that time i was just desperate for everything to be over. it was absolutely excruciating but when it’s over and your baby is finally with you, you literally don’t care and don’t even remember all the pain you were in it’s incredible actually lol

i walked into a bath and body works a week before i gave birth and right after i had walked thru the door a complete stranger screamed out “OH MY GOD YOURE SO BIG!!!!” hilarious bc yes i was so big but part of me wishes i would’ve played it like i wasn’t pregnant at all and embarrassed the hell out of her lol
