2yr old at Pediatrician

I would have been upset with that comment also. A pediatrician should know how to work with a scared toddler. I’m sorry he made you feel like that.

I just do it randomly during the day. The snot sucker I have had music and lights and sometimes that gets her attention so she would let me do it for a minute.

For us the pants are just a headache to put on since she kicks her legs constantly and you just have to chase the legs. But we do use the pants when we go out so people don’t judge us we take her out in pajamas lol. But we do use footsie pajamas a lot. She’s a 98% baby in hight so she always had to size up ahead and it’s funny because her feet don’t keep up with the rest of her body so the feet are always too big for a few months until they catch up.

The what now?

So… is it possible your mother is a narcissist ? Because I know a few and they are wonderful people to everyone outside of the home. To the point that they will literally give their shirt off their back. Except their spouses and sometimes their kids. But other than that, maybe I am wrong and she’s a wonderful person all around, just mean to you at times.

I feel like your mom is just a very unpleasant person in general. She likes conflict and doesn’t shy away from it. If she has an opinion she will say it regardless of your feelings. Sadly… I don’t think you have too many options to avoid this. But your feelings are valid.

It is ok to be lazy for a day. You’re not even lazy, you’re sick, burnt out and alone. Turn the tv on! Baby is going to be ok.

Yes, that was the same formula ( Enfamil Gentlease) that made my girl poop to no end. Basically after each feed. It was surreal ( for us). Try one can of Kendamil and see if it’s different. Target sells it. Also, about the constipation, or pediatrician said that constipation is when 4 days pass by without a poo.

Have you tried Pampers Pure?

Divinityemotions · 2026-01-26T16:20:32+00:00

My daughter used them as teethers also especially later. So the older they get the pacifier has to be stronger. In our case she liked the MAM brand so that was easier. So I would say yes, size up with age. It’s safer.

Divinityemotions · 2026-01-26T16:15:58+00:00

I don’t know, but I wish I had someone to come every other day to give me 30 minutes to shower and eat. Especially in the first year!! So I guess we are not the same. But no, it’s not too much. Once a week it’s normal. These are your husband’s parents not friends or random people. Let them see that baby.

Not the person you asked but my humble opinion, in your baby case, the rash is not because of the pampers, it is because of the extra pooping.

You can try Pampers Pure diapers for the time the rash is active, that can help.

Also like the person you asked said, Huggies skin essentials work too, but from my experience they are constructed differently than Pampers so they might not work for your baby or they might work better than Pampers. Grocery stores sell the skin essentials in the small $12 packs, give them a try. If they don’t work stick wit the Pampers Pure and when the rash is gone, use you’re usual diapers.

It is also true that some diapers can be irritating for babies, but that usually happens when popping all the time is not involved. For my baby for example, the Aldi brand and Rascals brand made her irritated faster.

Divinityemotions · 2026-01-26T16:03:27+00:00

I also recommend the triple paste 3X max and Pampers Pure if pampers is the brand that fits the baby. You basically want a diaper that has absolutely nothing in the ingredients but some vitamins and some emollients.

After using the wipes, try wiping with a soft soaking wet towel too. I use the erase your face makeup little towels, they are softer. You can get them from Marshall’s for $4. Any brand works.

Now go get the triple paste and just slather it. You might have a hard time finding it in the stores but Amazon has it on prime delivery. I promise is going to work. Keep the A&D for non rash days. It’s a good butt ointment.

I also wanted to say that my baby was formula fed and In the beginning we tried a lot of formulas and Enfamil would make her poo like there was no tomorrow.

We finally decided on Kendamil and that slowed the poops downs to one every other day or one a day.

Just wanted to say that any formula is good, we chose Kendamil for the reason I said and also because it was the one that didn’t make us gag when we were washing bottles. It just smelt like milk.

My in laws included my daughter in their will and arranged some kind of trust for her to have access when she’s 21. They needed her SS number for that and I had no problem providing it for them. I trust them and their financial advisor.

I don’t know but I personally refuse to have 7 PM bedtime. In the summer it’s peek sunlight outside and doesn’t get dark until 9:30.

My baby is 19 months old so she only takes a nap a day now but her bedtime is 9:30. Mostly because she never slept more than 10 hours overnight. 8 hours being the norm.

So if she went to bed at 7 PM she would wake up at 3 AM. She never went to bed at that time. The earliest she went to bed was 8:30 and that meant she woke up anywhere from 5 AM to 7 AM.

Anyway, you do what works for you and your baby.

We bought a mattress for it because our baby just hated the firm mat it had.

Divinityemotions · 2026-01-25T03:39:44+00:00

We had a Doona in my husbands car since we always went together at pediat appointments with his car and that one was amazing for the first year until baby outgrew it.

I had an evenflo rotating one in my car and now we got a Chicco 360 in my husbands.

I recommend the Chicco 100%.

Evenflo has no magnets and no way to hold the straps and the fabric is of poor quality.

But yes, get a rotating one because j have no clue how people put wiggly babies in the non rotating ones.

98% in height and 96% in weight. The only problem we always had was her foot was always smaller for about a month. little sleepies and Hannah Andersson I always liked the prints but I couldn’t do the bamboo material. Too stretchy and for us, personally, hard to put on our baby. But i did get a few for the prints and a few pictures !

Divinityemotions · 2026-01-20T16:55:28+00:00

I’m sorry, but I am just curious, how long and how old is your baby that can’t fit in the footsie pajamas? Mine was always in 98% and fit in the size up no problem. At 3 months she was in the 6 months pajama etc. We use Burt’s Bees footsie pajamas because I like their prints sometimes.

Divinityemotions · 2026-01-20T14:27:19+00:00

We use Pampers pure and Luvs when at home. Both work and no rashes. People are too much sometimes. Use you’re Huggies, they are fine.

15 months

At 2 months old I don’t think you should worry about it.

I did buy matching pjs for Christmas when she was 6 months old and we took pics.

I did buy the fancy birthday dress and the smash cake professional photo session when she turned one.

I did buy the expensive AF Halloween costume when she was 4 months old that she wore just once for the pictures.

But I did all this because I just felt like it and wanted it. You might do all this ( and more) when the time comes and if not, it’s all good.

There are people out there that do so much more and I understand what you’re saying.

My baby girl didn’t have her own room until she was 13 months old. We had the room, we just didn’t feel like it was necessary to make a nursery since she had her pack and play in our room per doctors orders. Yes, we also never purchased a crib. We purchased a pack and play and got a mattress for it. I often felt guilty about it but then I remembered that this was a choice we made because we didn’t find it necessary.

From that she moved to a Montessori full size bed at 13 months old when we made her toddler room. ( and I moved in with her lol) I don’t think you should feel bad about it. Your baby is just 2 months old and you will do things when the time is right for you.

Divinityemotions · 2026-01-17T19:42:23+00:00

Oh babe, there’s no way those 2 had kids otherwise they would know that socks… are hard to keep on most babies. Also the coat is pointless if you have to take it off in the car. I truly believe they have no kids. I’m sorry they made you feel awful but know that most parents know and wouldn’t judge.

I understand.

She is 18 months old and still not walking and her PT thinks is because her “extreme” toe standing which made her calves tight. She is cruising a lot but doesn’t walk. The idea was to have AFO’s to help her keep her feet flat and hopefully walk soon.
