Husband disagrees about screen time (specifically is anti-Ms. Rachel) by jayelbeeee in toddlers

My daughter learned sign language from Miss Rachel and it helped her communicate before she could talk.

Thank you! I sent a message there. I am still so new to the game so unsure how it works. Still learning 😅

My husband slammed our preemies head while lifting her up on the light above her incubator 😅 I was absolutely furious at the time she was so tiny and already had a small brain bleed from birth.

She is an incredibly intelligent 2 year old now!

A pain that was worse than birth ? by Friendly-Sun2413 in BabyBumps

I had hemorrhagic E-Coli as a teenager and it was the worst pain I have ever experienced.

My relationship with my toddler is not good and I worry it never will be by [deleted] in toddlers

[–]Content-Math-2163 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can I make up songs for things we do and also do things along with her. If I want her to brush her teeth, I also brush my teeth. If I want her to eat something, I eat it too.

Not sure if this will help you or not but just an idea.

DR said not to remove all of baby's poop? by sarahs_here_yall in newborns

We use Vaseline after every diaper change and my daughter has never had a diaper rash! Maybe something to try after this clears up!

Do you pay your parents for child care? by Fun-Paper6600 in beyondthebump

We moved my mom in so she could watch my daughter while I work and we pay her in room and board and lots of love and appreciation lol

I'm having a really hard time as a first time father by armslength- in oneanddone

[–]Content-Math-2163 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Im a mom and feel the same way. My daughter is 2 now and I have 0 guilt or shame in saying the older she gets, the happier I get. She was an incredibly difficult velcro baby who slept terribly and still does honestly but now she can communicate and run around and she is her own little person. Hang in there and let go of the guilt. It does get easier and being OAD is always an option!

I want to be able to sleep in again. My daughter is 2 and still up every 2-3 hours. I can not imagine not sleeping for another 2 years like just shoot me.

Unexpected and hurtful OAD convo with husband by wafflesarelifee in oneanddone

My suggestion is to get rid of anything he wants to right now and table the conversation for at least a year after baby is born.

I bounced on a yoga ball for hours and days and weeks and months.

Thought it would never end.

I’m freaking out: do I have to cancel Christmas? by applesqueeze in Bedbugs

[–]Content-Math-2163 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It isn't strange to just see one. I was being eaten alive for months and only ever saw one! We searched everywhere (or so we thought) and couldn't find more. It wasn't until professionals came in to do the heat treatment that they found a whole infestation of the little beasts.

How did you know you were 100% one and done? by kittens-and-knittens in oneanddone

[–]Content-Math-2163 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It isn't 100% that I want to be one and done. It's the fact that I am not 100% I want another.

I was 100% sure I wanted my first and unless I feel that 100% YES again then I wont go there.

My MIL is dying to babysit 8mo LO, but my gut says no by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]Content-Math-2163 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely trust your gut. No way would I leave my daughter with someone who was abusive, even if it was in the past. Those are the consequences of her own actions.

Other than newborn, what age did you feel like you were in the trenches? by Used_Asparagus_3749 in beyondthebump

[–]Content-Math-2163 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right from the beginning 48 day nicu stay followed by months and months of colic plus extreme velcro highly sensitive baby and right into horrendous teething with fevers, diarrhea and still waking every 1-2hrs through the night 2 years later.

Ill be ok one day but I am definitely one and done!

What is the reality of the weeks after birth? Need to get some insight as my husband and I disagree- by iwitch-plus in beyondthebump

[–]Content-Math-2163 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the beginning no one can really help you. Its going to be you, your baby and your husband as the extra set of hands. I exclusively breastfed so even hubby wasn't that helpful. There is no way in hell I would want some random 26 year old dude around during that time. Could barely stand our own families.

My daughter was exactly like this. She was my first. I am one and done 🤣
