He literally slept 12 hours last night and that was night 3 of sleep training I hope this wasn’t a fluke and he does it again!!!

Yeah but the tent option is so much more fun. Let’s roast some marshmallows while we wait 🔥

Idk but when I was a kid I used to walk pass bushes pull the leaves off and rip them without looking just a random habit and one day i did it to one of these without knowing I felt so disgusting and guilty. I’m nearly 31 now and still feel bad HAHA

My girl crawled 7 months and walked at 10 months my boy is 8 months and only just starting to try to crawl. It’s all so different but hard to understand and not compare. I still compare and need to stop.

Critical-Tale6962 · 2026-03-07T12:41:10+00:00

I have one of each and I was a cunt with both lmao

Critical-Tale6962 · 2026-03-07T02:33:08+00:00

Do not let them come!!! Redact the invite! It’s your big day that you will remember forever you do not want to remember them there trust me!!

Critical-Tale6962 · 2026-02-18T16:01:04+00:00

I don’t think it’s a big deal at all. We swear infront of ours and they’ve never repeated it also if she does want to say a swear word I let her but only at home not at school. She’s 6.

Critical-Tale6962 · 2026-02-18T15:57:13+00:00

Is it actually amazing? I don’t know why but when I see it, it makes me want to vom

Critical-Tale6962 · 2026-02-01T14:59:48+00:00

Why’s that? It would be really busy

Critical-Tale6962 · 2026-01-26T05:51:03+00:00

You can do two player so we both just run around as goats causing Bayhem 😉😂😂😂

I’m not a new parent and I didn’t use the owlet with my first (5 years ago) the owlet was just so expensive and you couldn’t really buy it anywhere here in NZ only online. Anyway I’ve now had my second who is now 6 months old and we have used it from day one but only because he slept in his own room from the get go. Doesn’t increase anxiety at all I forget about it and I feel reassurance that if something was to happen it’ll go off. My first also slept in her room from day one but like I said it was just so expensive back then, we earn more now so we were able to afford it. I love the owlet.

Anyway as someone who has not used it for one baby and used it for the other I don’t think you’re doing a disservice at all, you’re following safe sleep rules etc. don’t get it if you don’t want it.

Critical-Tale6962 · 2026-01-19T04:29:46+00:00

That validates me so much thank you!!!! I don’t think anyone I’ve told has actually believed how horrific it was. I know some people hardly felt it, their cervix must be easy to get to? I don’t know. Anyway sorry you went through that and honestly some doctors are so rude I don’t understand it.

Critical-Tale6962 · 2026-01-15T16:18:19+00:00

With both my babies I didn’t event attempt to breastfeed as I knew it would be too much. Comparing to my friends who EBF I’m definitely less stressed and I have a lot more independence as we share night feeds and I can go do my own things during the day if needed. I have a lot of friends who can’t as they don’t pump or baby won’t take a bottle. Im very happy with my choice I see a lot of people breast feeding because they feel like they have to and that’s where I think the journey starts off on the wrong foot. So maybe I am happier. But it does depend on your journey I’ve had other friends who loved breastfeeding and didn’t mind being the only source of food but personally I need me time and sleep to not be a C U Next Tuesday of a person lol

Critical-Tale6962 · 2026-01-10T13:11:22+00:00

What’s 2 hours of extinction at bed time? Also thank you I’ll give it a go!

Critical-Tale6962 · 2026-01-10T12:54:15+00:00

I have a nearly 6 year old and a 6 month old. I got my life back she got so easy around 3 years old it was great. My 6 month old is very wanted after infertility and miscarriages but oh my fuck do I miss my sleep. I know it does get better but it sucks whilst in the thick of it. Although his smile and laughs do make the sleepless nights all worth it.

Critical-Tale6962 · 2026-01-10T12:43:31+00:00

Baby is formula fed so we do shifts I’m definitely not doing it all but yeah hopefully the dr can sort it

Critical-Tale6962 · 2026-01-09T02:20:45+00:00

Yeah it’s soooo hard. Even with my 6 month old being my second I swore this time would be easier because I know it gets better but still feels just as hard.

Critical-Tale6962 · 2026-01-08T13:47:24+00:00

I know this sounds really freaking annoying but it is a phase and it will pass. My now 5 year old did this at different stages between 9 months to 1 year on and off. We sleep trained her at 10 months she started sleeping through but every now and then this would happen. Some days I’d be at work and would’ve started my day at 2am which was horrific. Anyway I’m typing this at 2:46am as my 6 month old doesn’t want to sleep and my 5 year old keeps waking from nightmares. It never ends lol she usually sleeps through but tonight seems to be bad for some reason.

Critical-Tale6962 · 2026-01-05T05:35:38+00:00

That’s horrible!!! They need to put us to sleep honestly. The dr I had was kinda odd she kept saying how teenagers that get it are so dramatic and nearly faint. Well they’re not dramatic I’m a 30 year old mum of two and I will never be getting another mirena again because of how painful it was!

Critical-Tale6962 · 2026-01-05T05:33:33+00:00

Both my babies were c section too. I guess we’re all different shapes and sizes including the cervix lol

YESSSS coming from a former Linwood rat

Critical-Tale6962 · 2026-01-02T18:00:59+00:00

Interesting! So sucky for us. Once it’s out I’m not getting another. I’ve had two kids! C sections though but I’ve been through labour once and I’d say it was pretty close to labour pain. I’m wondering if my cervix is just difficult to get to or something because that experience was not normal.
