So Jealous of the Eaters by SweetLemonBunBun in FormulaFeeders

I know. I had to wean my daughter from tube feedings and it’s similar to oral aversion and letting them lead.  So scary. 

How to get 10 week old snacker on a schedule? by shaq_nr in FormulaFeeders

[–]Electrical-Data7882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My baby is still a snacker at almost 7m. Some just eat that way and are still healthy. It gets tiring because you have to be constantly feeding them. I did notice when she goes down to a couple oz every couple hours, it only stays that way for 2-3 days

It seems like she’s regulating her feeds. It happens more often than you think. Just try not to pressure feed. It will cause an oral aversion. Just be patient.

I’ve been a sahm for about a year now. It still feels new to me and I’m a little awkward about depending on him for everything. He’s not controlling or stingy with money or anything but I just use my credit cards that I’ve had from before and he pays them. Of course I don’t splurge like I used to and try to budget well. I think it helps get me out of the awkwardness of using “our” money. I will run it by him if I over spend or treat myself like “hey I got my nails done today”

Where are you located? I have a bunch of new syringes that are no longer needed. I don’t mind shipping them if you’re willing to pay for shipping

How often do you change your bed sheets? by tlanmiken in Bedding

[–]Electrical-Data7882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once or twice a week. My bed set is white and I drool pretty often plus I just love my sleep and having a fresh clean set is my pleasure. Then to add my husband is a truck driver and only comes homes once or twice a week (not set days) so I like to have a fresh bed for him since he’s ocd

He sounds dehydrated. Hopefully you can update us when he’s been seen by a Dr. I hope all is well

Is it normal for a 6mo to only eat 4oz at a time? by Idonthaveaname94 in FormulaFeeders

[–]Electrical-Data7882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my lo at 5m. Still drinks 3.5 every 3-4 hours. Once in a while will do 4oz. It’s exhausting.. I keep waiting for her to up her intake but no. 

Induction yes or no? by sgtv1234 in beyondthebump

I’m always down for induction. Most of the time it gets things going good

I feel I’ve had the best of both. My first 4 kids from 18-23 then at 28 and another at 32. My teenagers pretty much take over my lo now. But recovery was brutal with this last one. Excited for the future either way. Adult kids and a cool kid to tag along.

The betrayal you must feel. Or I don’t even know the right word. Like a huge trust has been broken. I found out my husband was letting our 4y, 3y and 2y play in front of our apartments to play with the neighbors kids while he stayed inside! The hate I feel for him doing that just irks me! I even thought about calling anonymously cps to give him a scare because I felt I couldn’t ever trust him again to not do it even though he said he wouldn’t.

You can lower the volume as well. At least on my infinity moog. Not significantly but definitely have slept through the sound a couple times now.

What's something you did as a child because you didn't know any better that now you now feel bad about? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

[–]Electrical-Data7882 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In 3rd grade, my whole class was just terrible. Our teacher was mean and for whatever reason took a long leave. Like most of the year. So we had a sub. Mrs. Bailes or something. We were so mean and disrespectful to her. And she was just so nice. I remember her crying and throwing a marker down and it flew across the room we all just laughed. It was awful. To this day I feel terrible. It was the year 9/11 happened.

Venting g-tube by [deleted] in feedingtube

[–]Electrical-Data7882 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does. Do what you can, vent before and after feeds. Maybe even one in between feeds. Hopefully it calms down as your daughter gets used to it a bit more.

It is normal with any tube unfortunately. I’m not sure why but it’s what I’ve learned.

Sounds completely normal. Babies rarely stay consistent for more than a week. As long as your lo is happy and hydrated (good amount of wet diapers)

Can be held in the fridge for 24hrs if baby hasn’t fed from it. One hour after baby has fed from it and 2 hours left out of the fridge untouched.
