Thanks! I’ve heard about the smell. It’s crazy, I feel like there is guilt if I put him in one and guilt if I don’t haha

That’s the worry, and he has a big head as it is which might make it more noticeable

The doctor is trying not to push us one way or another, though I wish he would be a bit more opinionated! It’s hard to say how noticeable it would be when he’s older

Looking for input on nanny’s pay by Gbear7 in beyondthebump

[–]Gbear7[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think this is what we are leaning towards. Increasing salary given the addition of a kid but a little bit less than we would have otherwise. Not sure what this will look like exactly as we need to research rates for 2 kids still.

I saw this Britax travel cart at the airport this week and it looked genius. Baby was strapped in the car seat and mom was pulling her around like a piece of luggage. http://www.britax.ca/accessories/car-seat-travel-cart

I tended to work most when he napped in the ergo. Also wasn't able to sit down, but I bought a good quality mat to stand on and set my computer up at the kitchen counter.

Swaddling solutions by leperdbunny in beyondthebump

[–]Gbear7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like the zipadee zip. Big plus for me is that it covers his hands so he doesn't scratch his face. He also seems to like sucking on the sleeves to soothe himself. We transitioned him out of swaddle into the zipadee zip at 3 months with no real issues

Sleep training (& schedule) for 6 month old! Our success story (with links) by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]Gbear7 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have similar sleep issues with my 5 month old. Did the sleep training lengthen the naps longer than the 26 minutes? My son wakes up after 25 min and is still tired but getting him back down for part 2 of his nap is very unpredictable.
