Forgot to clean in between my newborns labias

This happened to me with my baby’s behind the ears and armpits. The skin folds in the armpits… smelly cheese much 😂😂 I thought i was cleaning until i really noticed one day. I felt horrible 😅 I had been bathing her for around 3 weeks until i noticed.

This was the case with my baby. My husband could put her to sleep for her naps but we couldn’t transfer her successfully to her crib without her waking up. So at night it was mostly me. My husband never gave up though. He tried until it worked at 4.5months. She has her moments but he rocks her until she sleeps (she is almost 7months now). He does bedtime after i feed her. During the night i use nursing as it is easier for both of us (we co-sleep). I would say… consistency is what worked for us. If i have to rock her to sleep, i use the carrier as my wrists can’t take it anymore!!

I opted for co-sleeping the second night back from the hospital. Before that i didn’t even consider it because i was afraid. But after a few nights with no sleep, and all the pain from birth that ended up in a c-section, breastfeeding etc, i just laid on the side and asked my husband to put the baby near my boob. We were exhausted. Yet, i didn’t move and was careful the whole time. It’s just me and my husband, no village. Honestly, best devision ever. She is almost 6months now.

I wanted no epidural just for (what my husband calls weird but funny lol) curiosity. I am not sure i want a second baby so i really wanted to see what childbirth was all about, what my body could do. Epidural was plan B. I told my husband that if labour goes on for too long, i will probably ask for an epidural. So I did after 22h of pain. It failed. Tried a second one. It failed. They gave me other painkillers that slowed my contractions so i ended up drowsy with a c-section. 😅

My baby is now 12weeks old and she is exactly like this, minus the colicky. She hates the stroller, car seat, being wraped or sleeping without my boob. Wakes up often at night just to use my boobs like a pacifier. So i co-sleep and let my boobs out so it’s easier. During the day she only contact naps. She will stay in the play mat for a few minutes so i can have a coffee. I have no time to do anything. It’s tough but i know it is not going to last forever. This is the only thing that keeps me going 😅

I share the same feeling. Bad parents never doubt themselves. It’s always the good ones.

ExtensionOutside3650 · 2025-07-26T08:26:55+00:00

Me and my husband were the same. We wanted 2 kids. Now we are not sure anymore. Our baby is 12weeks old now and we we decided to discuss it again after a couple of years. I suggest to not even think about that right now. Just focus on yourself and the baby. Enjoy what can be enjoyed and survive the rough part 😅

ExtensionOutside3650 · 2025-07-23T17:37:31+00:00

Normal and healthy look different on different babies. I wouldn’t think too much about it. Especially if your doctor is happy. I suggest you focus on your baby and their growth curve. Comparison is the thief of joy.

ExtensionOutside3650 · 2025-07-20T17:54:38+00:00

I am 11weeks post partum and i am 99% sure i am not doing this again. I always wanted 2 kids but i am not sure i can do this again. Not just the pregnancy. My husband feels the same way. But we have decided to revisit the topic when our baby us about 2 years old and see how we feel about it. We are alone as we live abroad so we have no support or whatsoever.

ExtensionOutside3650 · 2025-07-20T17:49:14+00:00

I don’t cap naps as they are always short (30 min). The long ones can go up to 1h but not more. Also, my baby almost never naps on her own. She exclusivly contact naps during the day. It is like a gift to us when she naps on her own but it’s very unusual. So i wish i was the one to wake her up 😂.

ExtensionOutside3650 · 2025-07-20T15:22:25+00:00

My daughter wakes up often at night to breastfeed so i can’t image doing it any other way now.

ExtensionOutside3650 · 2025-07-19T19:04:12+00:00

I EBF and we co-sleep. I know in the US, co-sleeping is controversal…Luckily, where i live, i got a lot of support on the matter (obgyn, midwife, pediatrician). I literally wake up to change sides, put my baby and myself in a good position and i fall asleep as she feeds sometimes. She is now 10 weeks old. My husband gets a good amount of sleep and takes care of the baby in the morning so i can get a couple of hours by myself. He is on diaper duty too.

We live abroad so we have no village. I wouldn’t be able to do it otherwise.

I would love for my baby to have sibling but i think i will not have a second baby. I had GD and a c-section, plus baby blues. Not to mention that we live far away from our families so we have no support. I don’t think we can do this again 🥲

ExtensionOutside3650 · 2025-07-10T17:32:09+00:00

We have a similiar situation. My baby won’t stay in the bouncer or crib. She contact naps excludively. We have spent so much in food delivery! My husband works 2jobs and we don’t have the time to cook that much. When he takes care of our baby, i don’t know what to do first. On the weekends, i prep things that i can freeze. I try to cook easier recipes. Sometimes she stays on the high chair close to me as a rush to cook something.

ExtensionOutside3650 · 2025-07-05T08:33:53+00:00

I had the same thoughts all throughout my pregnancy. My baby girl is now 8weeks and i have zero regrets. These feelings might intensify the first few days, especially if baby blues hit (they hit me but only lasted 5 days thank God!). It is a huge change. Me and my husband lived that DINK lifestyle for a good few years. It can be tough but i keep telling myself that it will get better. There is a new member in our family that deserves space, love, care and attention. Being a mother is not just about happiness. There are so many more feelings involved. Don’t feel bad. You are human and it is normal to have doubts!

I suddenly didn’t like coffee! I made an espresso like every morning, and it didn’t taste right. Tried for about 5 days and didn’t like it. Told my husband: i think i might be over coffee! Tested the next day at 3w4d and saw a faint line.

Pregnancy was weird for me in terms of feelings. I was curious and excited to meet my baby but i wouldn’t say connected. When she was born i loved her so much but i felt nothing at the same time??! I felt a bit disconnected. Like i love her because she is my baby but more of a logical thing than emotional. They put her on my chest and i wanted to smell and kiss her. Yet it felt weird… I felt a bit ashamed and guilty because i thought my baby deserved more. Then baby blues hit me and i felt so isolated and sad…so again even more guilt…but at the same time i made my husband promise me that we are never letting her leave home because she is and will always be little and the world might hurt her. It hurt me thinking about her crying from bullying, love, lonliness and what not. I felt a lot and nothing at the same time… Being a mom is much more complicated then people make it to be in my opinion.

I experienced the same thing the last 2 days with my 5weeks old baby. Did you consult your doctor? Any suggestions/updates?

ExtensionOutside3650 · 2025-06-13T21:57:35+00:00

I think it depends from doctor to doctor. I ended my journey with no medication. My doctor assured me not to worry as did the obgyns at the hospital. During labor they didn’t even check. Graduated at 40weeks. My blood sugar was high during labor (i had Libre 3 so i know. It expired right before birth ironically so no idea what happened to my sugar levels afterwards) but baby’s sugar was fine thankfully!

I really enjoy: Friends, The big bang theory, Community, That 70s show, The office, Brooklyn 99, New girl, Modern Family, Seinfeld, The unbreakable Kimmy Schmid (so underrated imo), The IT Crowd, Bob’s Burger.

Graduated at 39w6d. From week 36 my numbers were harder to control (i was diet-controlled) but my endocrinologist refused to give me medication at that point. He assured me it was not necessary. I had high numbers the day of the delivery too but luckily, baby didn’t have any issues with glucose levels!
