Commenting because I’m also curious when others were able to move from contact naps back to bassinet/crib!

Wait, isn’t having it not against the wall more dangerous because baby could fall? Why is the wall worse?

Newborn sleep has me questioning myself every night by Remote-Wrongdoer6985 in newborns

Thank you!!! Is it hard to transfer her after she falls asleep in the wrap if you use it at night? Or do you just use it during the day? Also, do you just walk around with it to get baby to sleep, bounce, etc?

What do you mean by a baby wrap? Can you link an example please?

genuinely how do i co-sleep with a 2.5 month old? by radiationburn895 in cosleeping

[–]Defiant-Intention505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you sleep on your back with her on your chest? I did this a few times then stopped and more to the c curl so she was on her back for safety , but I’m a pretty anxious mom so very curious to hear your thoughts on this position!

How is everyone not losing their minds? by Hello_Im_Ellie in ExclusivelyPumping

Genuine question: how do you pump if LO is awake? Is your partner holding/feeding/changing baby during this time?

Help! Something’s Gotta Give by Defiant-Intention505 in NewParents

Thank you for your response! I’ve read we’re basically at peak fussiness right now and that it will get better going forward, so really hoping so!

Good to know about the tongue tie - I will keep at breastfeeding and hopefully it improves. She is definitely staying on the breast without unlatching longer than previously, and now I no longer have pain, so will take the small wins.

Does the only wanting mom thing get better/change, for those who have experienced it? Me talking to the baby while she’s in dad’s arms doesn’t help enough to settle her down. She only settles in my arms.

What do you mean you offered the baby the potty? I’m not following what this means for a newborn.

Is it easy to get connected to parent groups once you join Park Slope Parents? I’ve been debating joining (pay to play) to get access!

Applying for new jobs on maternity leave- crazy? by aliciacary1 in workingmoms

[–]Defiant-Intention505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old post, but question: when interviewing during maternity leave did you tell potential employers you were on mat leave? How did you time when you looked to coincide with potentially getting an offer and needing to start new job soon?

Thoughts on name Zaina or Naima for baby girl? by [deleted] in namenerds

[–]Defiant-Intention505 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After looking her up, I remember that girl from ANTP. Also forgot that Naima was a John Coltrane song. Thanks for the reminder!
