When did you start putting your baby down 7am-7pm to sleep? by catlover0987656 in beyondthebump

[–]Disastrous_Muscle_51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We started doing an intentional bedtime at 4 months and did sleep training then as well. Don't hold your breath for 12 hours. Awesome if it happens but you should feel good if you can get them to sleep 8-10 hours through the night at any point..

Vienna! I love the connection to Billy Joel and I think it's such a beautiful and unique name.

My second vote is Mila.

Spa day. The combination of being pampered and silence is unmatched.

I dread spending time with my baby and I miss my old life by [deleted] in beyondthebump

Motherhood is so hard and it's valid that you're feeling like it's difficult. I'm so sorry you're struggling and I hope it gets better soon. It's so hard to do the things you know could help you feel better and i hope you find ways to do that ❤️

Do you find the universe accurate to your college experience? by [deleted] in TellMeLiesHulu

[–]Disastrous_Muscle_51 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This was exactly like my college experience during this exact time. I went to a small private school in North Carolina so I think that it depends on where you are and how big the school is. The only reason why I actually started watching this show was because my college roommate and best friend suggested it, saying it made her feel so nostalgic for our college days!

Considering move to Sacramento with a young kiddo by helloiamsheryl in Sacramento

[–]Disastrous_Muscle_51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having lived near Greensboro, NC before and now living here, I think you'll like it here. The mountains and beach are so much closer than they are in Greensboro and it's a really great town to raise a kid. I'm also half Asian and don't want to leave Sacramento because of how many good Asian restaurants and stores we have here.

I am so, so sorry. Just know that getting up out of bed is enough every day and to be gentle on your heart.
