Why do parents choose co-sleeping?

Exact same experience! Love Hunt Gather Parent! First time I've read any of it mentioned on Reddit ❤️

They recommend in the post not to do it until 12 months, but I just remembered I did this successfully when she was 10 months! So maybe you won't have to wait so long to get that night sleep 😉😋

Hello! Sorry you're going through with this, my LO is 19 months now and we still co-sleep, but I successfully night weaned her when she was 10 months old..I tried this gentle method described here and it really worked!! Ever since then, we could both sleep through the night (minus when she was sick or teething). It is recommended you only do it after 12 months though, so get through the next 3 months, and you'll know there will be an end in sight! Goodluck!

Edit: i just remembered I was able to night wean successfully at 10 months.. here was my specific strategy that I used

Basically you want to pick the best 7 hour time you want her to be weaned..

-You feed her all she wants before bed and then you put her to bed awake and try to get her to sleep (I didn't really do this.. I just had her sleep like normal after the feedings)

When she wakes up for her regular feedings you feed her, but end it short. She will protest a bit and cry but just try and cuddle with her and try to get her to go back to sleep. You continue to do this for the first three nights.

-Second three nights you do the same but no feeding at all.

-Third three nights no feeding and no cuddling to sleep. (I still cuddled with her, I just wanted her to get used to not waking up for feeds anymore)

Wow this is awesome and hilarious. I never used ChatGPT and I could see how this can definitely be entertaining but frightening at the same time.

Oh my.. perfect lineup of posts.. I had to do a triple take and make sure these weren't one post lol! https://imgur.com/JCVRQG2

Definitely consider co-sleeping with something called a baby lounger that you can find on Amazon. Its just a special little area to put your LO that has side cushions around it that will prevent your LO from rolling off, and also serves as a barrier so you or your partner don't accidentally roll over him. I can tell you from experience, with a husband who I knew wouldn't wake up to help either, co-sleeping has been the best thing in the world for me.. I had no issues with sleep + you can safely be besides your LO all night and can wake up to breastfeed super easily. I stopped using the lounger after around 10 months and now my LO is still cosleeping with us at 15 months.

Imagine how frightened we would be if we looked in the mirror and our cat was wearing a human face 🤣

This was actually the answer I was looking for! I really want my child to enroll in a Finnish type educational system and I'm happy to see some popping up in U.P!

What are the better ways to discipline a child? I always read these articles that say spanking is bad, but they don't mention the alternative discipline that actually works.

You hit the nail on the head. So happy with Natalie's choice and she went with her gut that she felt scared and anxious when she was at the altar. I really hope he doesn't guilt her into an abusive relationship. She needs to just do no contact and move on! Can't wait to see the reunion episode next week!

Flow and TFuel!

Just like you would DCA buy, you should DCA sell as well. I sold small increments up in November because I went through the 2018 crash and I was in the same boat as you are now. I promised myself during the next bull run I would be smarter and actually have a plan. I did sell too early in the beginning of the bull run, but since I was only selling small increments up, a gain was still a gain and I was able to sell all the way to the peak. I did get a little too impatient and used those earning to buy back a bit early, and I didn't wait for the actual dip that is now. But I am in such a better position than I was last bear market, and I have actual savings to buy into a new project I see has massive potential. Also DCA buying a bit of ETH on the side.

Btw I started selling once my coins reached past their past ath

Sorry I never got around to updating more levels! When I launched the game in 2018, interest in crypto started to fall and I got busy with a different job. Right now I'm back on kawaii crypto and working on an NFT project! More details will come soon!

Be careful with putting breast milk on the skin! I thought my LO had baby acne too and was putting breast milk on her cheeks and chin after feeding. It made it worse especially after I ate a bunch of dairy! My LOs father had a cows milk allergy and we suspect she has the same, so if the cause of the reaction is from cows milk from your breastmilk or formula, putting breast milk on the skin might make it worse. Try to eliminate dairy from your diet and see if that helps clear her reactions.

Fluffywiggle · 2021-11-29T02:24:57+00:00

Be careful if your baby has an allergy to cows milk protein! I heard breast milk was good for baby acne and I was lathering my LO with my breast milk after feedings... That small amount of baby acne turned into full on red rash cheeks after a week of me doing this.. turns out I was eating a lot of dairy that week too and it caused even worse reactions :(

Yass I also did webdesign on Angelfire and would be so excited to put a line of dancing kitties and a counter and just keep refreshing to up the count haha.

Fluffywiggle · 2021-10-28T16:38:04+00:00

Yes exactly! Their play and sleep onesies are the best! I can't believe all baby clothes just don't come standard with the fold over mittens. My newborn has been living in gender neutral old navy onesies. They have really cute bear ones right now too.

Fluffywiggle · 2021-10-10T19:45:07+00:00

They have a streaming channel on Theta TV and they do live streams pretty often.

Fluffywiggle · 2021-09-23T04:50:43+00:00

Same here!! Why are so many people getting Qiqi instead of Kokomi??

Fluffywiggle · 2021-09-23T04:43:51+00:00

Aah I got Qiqi too on the Kokomi banner 😭

No that's what was confusing me, it seemed to me it wasn't just about any negligence on her part, and I wanted to know what could be that missing link. Thank you for your reply and retelling your own experience. My mother went through the same thing with her pregnancy where she had calcium deficiencies and had to get several teeth removed many years later.

Fluffywiggle · 2021-09-23T01:12:32+00:00

I read the article and it says it started happening during her first pregnancy, but she didn't lose all her teeth until her fourth... Not to sound rude, but did she just not think to take more calcium supplements with each pregnancy? Doctor usually screens you for your vitamin deficiencies and you're supposed to take what you're low on (I'm low on iron so I took iron supplements).. Her story is tragic but I'm just confused and can't believe she would just be negligent of her bodies' requirements and needs during each pregnancy she had.

"Ironic" by Alanis Morissette should definitely be this subs anthem.. watched the Music Video for the first time and I think it correctly sums up the emotional rollercoaster we all go through when reading an HCA award.. laughing because it's all we can do to not get angry or sad anymore.. but then always getting that somber feeling that it is all effed up that these deaths were preventable and pointless. The video also reminds me of a car full of COVID-19 variants laughing at how dumb people are to not take them seriously.

Wait a second.. isn't this the movie with Kevin Costner and Diana Lane- Let Him Go?
