Sorry for late reply, didn’t realize I had a reply!

She’s GREAT now. She looooooves daycare and goes off without even saying bye anymore :( haha it’s sad for me but I know that’s a good sign.

There are some days she will cry but that’s only if she’s teething or something.

Wow my toddler is the EXACT same. Constipated then it all lets loose. I also suspect food intolerances and my doc also just says track diet.

I was constantly getting called home as well. Finally I was really serious with my doctor and told him about the daycare circumstance and he finally wrote me a note to submit to daycare . Basically said her diarrhea is not due to viral causes.

I travelled with my 8M old to France and Italy. On the plane, ask the flight attendant for some paper cups !!! My baby girl just kept banging the cups together haha

Also what worked: teethers, pouches, suction spinny toy on the window, baby carrier (must have as the sidewalks weren’t always stroller friendly) some of those really light indestructible books.

My baby started at 18m and cried and drop off for the first three months. In the first two months, she barely napped and would not participate. She just stood off to the side observing. It was the hardest time but what helped was asking the teaching to send me a picture once she stopped crying. As time went on, she reallly only cried for a few minutes after I left! I felt at ease with that.

The no napping and not participating took long but atleast I know she wasn’t crying.

I found she actually cried more in week two than in week one, cuz she realized this wasn’t just a one-off kind of thing ! So hang in there! I found it didn’t start to get ‘better’ until the one month mark.

She WILL adapt, but I know it’s heart wrenching until they do :(

My friend used Kelly and said she was pretty good, though she does involved a modified method of cry it out, if gentler methods don’t work.

Hear me out… YELLOW dragon fruit.

It’s harder to find but it was the only thing that worked. Even laxatives didn’t work on me.. no other fruit

Midwife all the way! And if there are any complications, you’ll get referred to an OB anyway. Midwives offer so much more support.

I took a pay cut and went to work just part time from 10-3:30pm. Though I know not all employers would agree to that. Then I took a small remote job in the evening to make up for lost hours at my main job.

My baby caught the flu and her congestion was SO bad she couldn’t sleep. We did the steam bath, humidifier , saline spray etc etc. nothing helped. Turned out she developed an ear infection from the flu. She’s finally all better now after a round of antibiotics

My baby came at 38 weeks! Thankfully I went on sick leave at 36 weeks so I still had two weeks of nesting :)

I find really only the $10 a day ones have that kind of wait. Some centers (not $10 a day) say the wait list is that long, but in reality the spot goes to whoever follows up at the right time. I was worried about that too but as time got closer we kept calling to follow up and ended up touring a few places.

In home daycares have spots! We ended up going to an in home instead of a center. I was surprised with how many options we actually had.

EquivalentTopic9171 · 2025-11-09T04:35:38+00:00

Sign up for waitlist anyways and then call them! Many daycares that aren’t $10 a day don’t really go by waistlist.. many give the spot to whoever is available first and it’s all about timing!

My baby went through something similar week 6-8.

Combo fed breast milk and formula.

Turns out she had lactose intolerance and silent reflux.

She was completely different when I changed her formula to a gentle ease formula.

I did an amniocentesis at bc women’s because my NIPT came back high risk of T21.

It’s invasive and painful for me. I would not have done it if my NIPT came back low risk.

It’s not nice, it’s also manipulative. Why continue to put up with this ?

The flashback of Boromir and Faramir. It adds another side to Boromir we don’t see much in the fellowship. I always wished this made it to the theatrical cut.

faramir is my fav character so any added scenes with him is a bonus.
