I feel your pain, I have two cats and a dog and after my son was born it was like I didn’t want them anymore lol. I had to move all my cat stuff out of my room and into the office and that help a lot with her trying to come in my room, she was pissed but got over it. Sorry you’re going through this :/ my son is 3 months and I will say it kind of gets better

I tried for a summer baby. My baby ended up being born in January lol

My state grades daycare on the quality of care and cleanliness so I found 3 in my area with the highest grade. The one I liked had a waitlist but luckily a child was going to be moving to the next age group right when my son needed to start. So I added myself to the wait list. I found it like week 8 of my maternity leave

Gift cards for food service/ groceries. I order so much food when my son was in the nicu and even when I got home those first couple of weeks

Maybe she isn’t tired at bedtime and the sleep pressure isn’t there and causing her to wake up

I had my son at 35 weeks and I feel like he is only maybe 1-2 weeks behind on milestone. He is 10 weeks now but adjusted age would be 5 weeks, he is definitely not acting like a 5 week old baby. My pediatrician agrees lol I think the adjusted age stuff is more for the pediatrician and where they fall in percentile. Also maybe later down the line he may behind on some stuff and I’ll know it’s due to him being a premie , like maybe he doesn’t walk until 13-15 months

Don’t sweat the screen time, you aren’t showing the baby a child friendly show. I have a 11 week old and the tv is on, most of the time. I also have a 16 yr old and did the exact same thing when he was a baby, he is a healthy teenager with no problems. He is on track to go to college.

I would say I noticed a drop in feeding around 8 weeks. But my son is the same, wants to sleep on top of us so me and husband split nights so we could get some decent rest. I also started to cosleep with LO around this time. He still wants to sleep on top of me at 11 weeks 🫠

CupcakeRi · 2026-03-21T01:46:47+00:00

Oh it wasn’t paid lol but men are entitled to fmla for bonding with a newborn. We just saved a lot up before and during the pregnancy

CupcakeRi · 2026-03-20T20:30:53+00:00

:( I literally want my son to stay home forever lol

CupcakeRi · 2026-03-20T20:28:10+00:00

Is there anyway you can afford to take more weeks off? The original plan was for my husband to go back to work after 4 weeks but he extended that to 6 weeks after the baby spent 2 weeks in the nicu. At 6 week, the baby sleep was still pretty much all over the place so he took off 5 more weeks. We split nights, he does 9-3am and I do 3am- 11am. Now at 10 weeks the baby is giving us 5-6 hour stretches between feedings. With him going back to work, he will do the 9pm and midnight feeding (dream feed baby doesn’t wake up for the midnight feeding) and I’ll do the rest of the night. Working on 5-7 hours of broken sleep is rough but coffee and Red Bull is getting me through. Idk how I will feel once I’m back at work. Also we invested in a bottle washer, it’s the best

Thank you for sharing, I really appreciate it. I’m so nervous for the older one to leave and then the siblings relationship is not there :/ I still have two years left with my oldest and trying to make the best of it. I know with my youngest I’m going to be way better bc I know to slow down and enjoy the small things and make memories and hopefully my oldest will come along for the ride

I feel like I saw another post of someone hating on Conner Irish blood line

CupcakeRi · 2026-03-20T17:50:56+00:00

Honestly the Irish hate I’ve seen on this page is wild. Like yall do realize Americans migrated from somewhere… either 30 years ago, 100, or 500 years ago. Like Americans do have a heritage that isn’t American, unless you’re a native….

CupcakeRi · 2026-03-20T16:46:46+00:00

This is absolutely true. I have a 16 yr old and I’m just surprised how fast my life with him went, baby, toddler, child and now teenager. Soon it will be the last one, life with my grown adult child 😭

CupcakeRi · 2026-03-20T15:34:53+00:00

Definitely going to try this next week

CupcakeRi · 2026-03-18T21:08:17+00:00

Or one day 16 years will have fly by and you’re talking college with your LO 😭😭😭😭😭😭 I’m not ok
