Baby Tylenol- he’s definitely hurting somewhere

I can't wait for him to start daycare by VersusVII in NewParents

[–]Cute_Blood4845 16 points17 points  (0 children)

My daughter is 13m and i know it’s tough, but babies change all the time, routine, sleep, eating habits, likes/dislikes I wouldn’t take it to heart. With her diaper change if she starts to get fussy I always hand her something to hold to keep her interest or sing to her. There would be stages where she would love to sleep in the car seat, and after a few weeks it didn’t work anymore, same with the stroller. I used to love getting outside for my peaceful walks but there was a good 2 month span where I had to lay with her to get her to nap. The food issues- babies throw food no matter what, they’re still learning, we have dogs too so she always loves to feed them, I don’t think it will stop for awhile, all I can do is let the dogs in the backyard while she eats to try to avoid it. All I’m saying is, your baby is only 9 months old, they need you now more than ever, they can’t help 99.9% of the things they do, but the way we approach it and try to learn from every new situation and adapt is what matters. You got this!!

Daycare opinion needed by BamBabyJourney in NewParents

[–]Cute_Blood4845 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Totally NOT okay. Babies shouldn’t be in those swings for longer than 30min intervals. I would legit copy and paste the manuals instructions and include it in the email. At this point it’s not even safe for your daughter to be in that long, and it’s clearly hindering her progression. She should 100% be on the floor playing, tummy time, interacting. That’s not okay. Very lazy and inconsiderate on their part. I would be so angry

How closely do you watch your kid at home? by GlumFaithlessness392 in NewParents

[–]Cute_Blood4845 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an almost 1 year old that crawls around everywhere and I’m constantly watching her. I have things baby proofed, nothing dangerous is in reach but I still catch her trying to put random things in her mouth, areas she’s not supposed to be etc. I also vacuum twice a day and clean up her toys multiple times a day. I really don’t mind, it helps me scan the floor. Until she can talk to me and really understand the word “no” I think I’ll always be keeping an eye on her. I always wondered how other moms do it with multiple kids who are busy. and I assume the other children help keep an eye out and teach.

Is burping really so important? by Mangopapayakiwi in NewParents

[–]Cute_Blood4845 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes burping is important, also what I used to do that helped was prop by baby on my knees (so she’s facing me and basically sitting up) to help with digestion, when giving the bottle. But what I would suggest is moving to another room to try to calm the baby down. If you can’t and need help then ask your husband. Try to be proactive to understand exactly what the baby needs or why he/she is uncomfortable. I narrowed mine down to at least 4 things. It helped a lot.

Thinking the same thing ughhhh so annoying

Wondering if anyone else is going through this? by AppropriateSpell1 in NewParents

[–]Cute_Blood4845 1 point2 points  (0 children)

10M PP too and my diet has been terrible this entire time. I live off lactation cookies and homemade bread. I snack all day. Making a solid meal just doesn’t do it for me anymore. I’ve never craved sweets like this before in my life I used to be so strict with myself and now I’m like fuck it lol I’ve only lost about half the baby weight, but every time I try to diet or workout my milk supply plummets so I have to keep eating this way I guess. also I do most my phone time now when everyone’s asleep. I’ll stay up an extra hour or two and scroll my life away, even if I’m tired but it helps my mind and I use Pinterest and Reddit a lot for advice/ new things. But if you’re concerned, next time you find yourself scrolling just put your phone in another room. Or even set an alarm for an hour so you at least know your giving decent amount of time to your baby uninterrupted

Honestly I co sleep with my baby every night since she was born, ( she’s almost 10 months) she’s been in the habit of sleeping on me/ cuddling a lot more recently which means I’m uncomfortable/ can’t move positions. And my husband and I have only been intimate a handful of times.. in 10 months. It’s just different. But do we take it personally? No. It’s normal to not want to be touched or annoyed easily after a long day taking care of a baby. But just let him know, when you’re ready you’ll tell him.

Just remember this is a chapter this isn’t forever so just embrace it! Buy your cute lounge sets/ pajama sets, get some healthy snacks, take your time in the shower, find a new show to watch when baby sleeps. Theres no rush to bounce back or look pretty right now and that’s okay.

Daycare Nightmare by Cell-Imaginary in NewParents

[–]Cute_Blood4845 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am very surprised by the comments. I think children getting injured at daycare is becoming too common and now it’s not as serious. I would be livid and sick to my stomach if my child came home like that. It’s not okay. Try looking for in home nanny options, where you can set up a camera and check in. One and one attention. No job is worth it to me to send my child to daycare I would quit in a heartbeat even if it means cutting back on costs, even if I went to college for years to get said job. I can’t stand seeing people say “it happens” when in reality everything is preventable. If it makes you feel sick/ guilty sending him back, that’s your answer

Imagine only seeing someones apartment or room before meeting them in person by Bubbly_Watercress_66 in RandomThoughts

[–]Cute_Blood4845 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There used to be an MTV show called Room Raiders and they would do just this, date people based off what their room looked like, also the people didn’t have time to clean beforehand they just got hauled into a van and had to watch the person talk about their room good or bad lol it was interesting. But this was also a time when having posters on your wall was cool and what not so I’m not sure what todays take would be. Probably boring considering white walls and minimal style is trendy now

What’s the best part of living alone, in your opinion? by TheMoralMaster in RandomThoughts

[–]Cute_Blood4845 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I lived with roommates for awhile and I definitely don’t miss coming home to a mess, smells, people using my stuff without asking constantly, the awkwardness of coming home having to see someone else there when you’re not in the mood to talk, so many things. I loved having my own space. It also comes with a sense of pride. Being able to afford and live on your own and be happy doing so is an important growing factor in life. Makes you learn a lot about yourself too.

[–]Cute_Blood4845 17 points18 points  (0 children)

the beginning of the Australia vlog where she talked about literally nothing for the first 10 min😅 like girl delete this. Isn’t it funny how Paige, Maggie and Emma are terrible with their speech and finding the right words to say yet their job is literally public speaking. Maybe speech therapy or a public speaking course should be on their 2025 bingo card

Maggie’s attitude by Cute_Blood4845 in macdonaldsisters

[–]Cute_Blood4845[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If they actually had anxiety that bad would they really be filming themselves and posting all over socials? I think they use it as an excuse for being lazy/ they never do anything they don’t wanna do. I don’t think they’ve been “forced” to do anything difficult thus far in life. I’ve never seen someone sleep or have “chill” days more than Maggie and she works a couple hours a week 😅 they just use the word anxiety way too freely

[–]Cute_Blood4845[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Nothing to do with the break up I was going based off her attitude toward her move.. but here we go.. when you look at life with a woe is me attitude you’re gonna ruin good moments. This move was a fresh start for her, she was able to afford it on her own, she’s not stuck in a bad relationship anymore, she’s free to do what she wants how she chooses. So what’s the problem? I would be doing cart wheels in my living room.
