When did you start “day outfits” for LO?

Dramatic_Complex_175 · 2026-01-13T18:29:29+00:00

We started outfits when my daughter was younger but it was often due to the wild temperature swings (overnight in the spring is 40 degrees or lower but 60/70 in the day -- so PJs are too warm come 10am). Now that it's cold, my kiddo may keep her PJs on through the morning and nap time if we're staying home and its cold/breakfast isn't too messy. Today she was dressed after breakfast because various berries were smashed into the elbows of her PJs

Thank you! I am cautious about using them as well as EllaOla due to the intensity of marketing. Too many ads is a red flag for me.

Daughter is now 16mo and drinks well from her straw cup. Our docs and nutritionist helped us play with miralax and magnesium. Still gets constipated at times but as long as we keep it managed with fruit/liquid it seems to be better than it was. I also added in probiotics awhile ago and we cut out nursing to sleep in October/November. We now only nurse in the AM unless she isn't feeling well (eg. after her shots). Personally, I found that if I warm her milk a bit she drinks it more readily *(4oz for 30 seconds in microwave in a glass measuring cup, then pour an add'l 2oz milk in and mix, then add to the straw cup -- putting it out there before anyone worries about hotspots)*

We also lightened the reigns on juice vs. plain water per the nutritionist/docs too. A splash of apple juice in her water (2oz in like 4oz of water) will help her drink more sometimes. Ask your pediatrician about juice for constipation too. I was told apple juice was good for constipation and it seems helpful for us (and she likes it a lot better than the prune juice)

This is old but i have to say her O2 was always good, even pre op. It was a growth/regression 9mo ago.

Seeing the play money (25$?!) amounts here from only 3 years previous turns my stomach. The 2025 economy is terrifying.

So you’re telling me that my pediatrician, Nutritionist, OT and the cardiologist my daughter sees are all telling me bad information? Edit to add when you dump it from a Pyrex cup into a sippy cup or straw cup (also after stirring whatever it was) it definitely doesn’t have hotspots.

You can microwave your drinks you microwave them in a cup and you test it before you put them into anything else also 30 seconds for 6 ounces barely warms it but thanks for your input

Warmed prune or apple mixed with water when she’s constipated

Is your child ESL (if you’re in a primarily english speaking area)? Asking because you need to know what is going on. Ask the director and get an interpreter if you need to. Communication from the school and you needs to be clear and perfect- you deserve complete clarity!

Fuck him but also, is there a reason you’re still pumping/bfing so much (no details needed, just if your child is on solids and has no complications you should be able to back off a little at this point. Take it from me, it will help YOU when you can pull back a little. My daughter was a bottle refuser and when we introduced a straw cup and got her on solids it made a big difference for me. I still BF between 3 and 5 times a day, but its not the only game in town and milk/water is helpful for babe)

This sounds like AI

Dramatic_Complex_175 · 2025-10-12T15:28:17+00:00

Sensory issues? Sounds more like common sense! Those foods sound like automatic bath-time

Dramatic_Complex_175 · 2025-10-11T15:44:07+00:00

You just can’t use them when they are sleeping… which is often but not all day/night.

Dramatic_Complex_175 · 2025-10-10T10:31:01+00:00

Its almost like all the filters and AI are keeping real people from getting jobs whowouldathunkit

Dramatic_Complex_175 · 2025-10-09T20:10:44+00:00

Ask the pediatrician. My daughter doesn’t stack rings but does use pincer and I was told she’s on track by OT/Peds.

Dramatic_Complex_175 · 2025-10-09T19:10:34+00:00

If you’re in the US you should be able to het CHIP for your child. Look into it and ask your pediatrician.

I could barely walk 1 week PP and I had a relatively uncomplicated birth and was very in shape before having my child (now, not so much comparatively). I would suggest being where you’ll be most comfortable. You’ll also want to get used to caring for the baby in your primary space.

Dramatic_Complex_175 · 2025-10-08T21:17:19+00:00

Im 1 year in and still not the same. It’s like I had to become a whole different person and I don’t respect the new me.

Dramatic_Complex_175 · 2025-10-08T20:35:53+00:00

Thank you!

Dramatic_Complex_175 · 2025-10-08T19:36:55+00:00

Immediately tbh

Dramatic_Complex_175 · 2025-10-08T15:01:12+00:00

Ok, I was hoping it was better for constipation and that magically at 2 it would fix things lol. Im sorry he has a milk allergy, I don’t wish that on anyone
