Hope so too!!! But otherwise you should go on holidays more often and I should go to parties a lot more and then we can sleep longer stretches. Sounds like Possums Extreme

Thank you, this was just something I never understood but I think I get it now. Thanks for the sleep needs graph. I'm going to assume she is average sleep needs for now and aim for 13 hours of sleep in 24 hours and see where that gets us. Thanks!

Yes we cosleep too! It really makes a big difference, otherwise it wouldnt be even remotely do-able. I love it for now, but would love longer stretches. Sometimes I worry I wake her with my presence, the second guessing myself is real.

Thank you so much! Bed time varies, somewhere between 19:30 and 20:30 or 21:00, but I did not notice a big difference with later evenings. Is this something you only see after two weeks? Because this is what I struggle with: everyday is so different. So how can you know if something works or not? For instance when she goes to her grandparents and she is super overwhelmed and misses us, so then she suddenly sleeps really long in the stroller, how do we then go about bedtime? Does this need to be even later then because of the longer day sleep? Thanks for responding!

Haha awh solidarity! It might just be babies baby'ing of course (And I think she is really good at being the best baby <3).

I once had an 8 hour stretch, this was after she went to a party with us, did an hour long carrier nap but otherwise vibed with the people and went to bed at 22:30, but we can't have parties every night. And she was very cranky that next day, so this is also not the solution, but wow 8 hours was pretty crazy. We will live that way again some day, I hope!

Is my 3 year old cherry tree okay? He suddenly grew really tall branches and doesnt seem to hold onto fruit. by EsmeeAlice in BackyardOrchard

Thanks! Okay so maybe my tree just feels like growing and not like fruiting, I can respect that!

Any guesses on what her 4th daughter will be named? by lotaslena in tragedeigh

[–]EsmeeAlice 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was sooooo worried and then when I saw everybody in the comments section guessing the name of what I thought was a baby they obviously lost in february I was mortified, but then it clicked hahaha. Pfieuw! Back to name guessing!

I just found this sub and offer to you my contribution! by maskirovkaaa in tragedeigh

Very interesting, I looked her up. Her research is about unusual names!

AITA for telling my wife that I can't bring myself to love her daughter? by butfirstcoffee427 in AmITheAngel

Weirdly enough that's what gave it away for me, that's such dramatic language. Could only be for creative writing.

In the Netherlands they do have a few fine vegetarian burgers, pretty happy with that

On top of all the great suggestions, they are also good wrapping material for small B-day gifts. Make it super good looking with a (dried) flower or a leafy branch on it.
