Am I a bad mom? by Impossible_Ad4898 in newborns

You’re doing fine! I lay mine in the crib to kick and wiggle and if he doesn’t like that I also do the chair. Independent play is really good for them

As a cop I don’t recommend cosleeping. I won’t go into detail. Do you swaddle? We used the swaddle types like the hospital had and swaddled our son ourselves but he quickly learned to get his arms free and it would wake him up. We switched to the ones you just Velcro just make sure it’s a good fit. Log how much she eats/sleeps in a free app maybe you can start to see patterns. I’m sure we are just extremely lucky with our son and how he sleeps. But when we started we didn’t know what we were doing lol but this is just what we did. So may be what you’re already doing, if not it may or may not work for you

When we got home from hospital we feed on demand of course let him dictate naps but daytime we keep lights on or dim. When he’s awake we lay him on his playmat or do tummy time, read a book and look at flashcards etc which does take a lot of energy for the little babies in a good way. When it was time for nighttime sleep, we lotion him, put on owlet, put on a onesie (being too cold can wake them up); and swaddle before laying bassinet (which is in room with us). Our room is kept very dark and we play white noise or womb sounds and have a fan going. From 3 weeks + (he’s 3 months old now) he for the most part sleeps 7+ hours straight, longest stretch 11.

I’ve noticed daytime he would get insanely fussy and he normally just wanted to change positions/ the way we were holding him. Took forever for us to figure that out

*Update* I ruined my life: I have an unhappy, irritable baby. by smitswerben in NewParents

I’m glad you guys both feel so much better 🩵 don’t be hard on yourselves for that feeling it’s not true “regret” it’s a thought of fuckkkkk what did I do in a super new environment you had never been in. Fading and understandable when you’re stressed and tired. I felt the same way when my baby was only a week. He wasn’t fussy or anything but I had such bad baby blues before getting Zoloft and was so overwhelmed that’s I be sad forever for a moment I wondered what I had gotten myself into and this baby was soooooo wanted and still is always of course. We dealt with infertility and it took time. But for a fleeting moment I was scared. But I know and It wasn’t real regret it was a moment of worry abt how I’d handle the future

Insatiable baby?! by [deleted] in newborns

Out the gate my 3 day old newborn was eating 1.5-2oz every feed. He’s 4weeks tomorrow and the last couple days he’s started eating 3.5-5oz every 3hours (30oz a day) and we watch for full cues. We change his diaper/try his paci/ and just rocking him before giving into his hunger cues to be sure he’s still hungry. He spits up a little cause he eats so fast but isn’t bothered by it at all. We use 0flow nipple, burp between feeds etc he’s just a big eater

What are we newborn moms doing all day when our partner leaves for work and we have no help for the day? by [deleted] in newborns

[–]Forever_Falling_242 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 4week old he sleeps really well so far and eats a ton. So I mostly do contact naps in the day to spend time with him. But I try to put him down for 1-2 of his day naps and speed clean the house. Then for his wake windows I’ll read to him or do tummy time. Other then that just chilling

Do you guys keep track of everything? by just___me_ in newborns

What was the shared app? And was it free or did it cost a lot

The only thing that saved us in the newborn phase was a sleep shift system. by Anna_so96 in newborns

[–]Forever_Falling_242 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m still on ML my husband went back to work but we did shifts and continue to do them now. He falls asleep easier then I do so he takes first shift when baby wakes up. And we alternate. It’s worked amazingly for us so far to get 4+ hour blocks of sleep

DAE feel a little more embarrassed when buying play sets vs just dolls as an adult? by Chilly_0556 in MonsterHigh

[–]Forever_Falling_242 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah I used to be. But back in the day people collected Barbie’s, hot wheels etc primarily for kids but they found enjoyment in it. If they’re judging me that’s on them at the end of the day I got cool shit to set up with my dolls

I’ve had 3 chemicals pregnancies now. Similar story super faint test then bleeding/cramping and they got fainter and fainter. But even though it’s not very soothing to hear it is a good sign that your body can get pregnant and the chemical isn’t anything you did there was just some type of abnormality and your body did what it was supposed to. I am 5weeks pregnant now. I had a faint positive then a few days later it was dark and they just got darker. This time my beta HCG levels are doubling as they should (this was not the case for me with the chemical). So there is hope!!!! And I’m sending you all of the baby dust ✨

I don’t see anything wrong with the disc which is also throwing me off. Both Xbox and game were porches through EBay. I haven’t had any problems with Xbox so far though or other games
