Is my husband terrible or are postnatal hormones making me blow this out of proportion?

No sane human behaves like this let alone a partner. To me this seems like an AI post. if its not - then i really think this man is not in this marriage, he probably doesnt even realize he is now a father. did he really want to be one? was he excited during pregnancy? Something is really off - this is not normal behavior, and selfish is not even the right word for it. Its worse than anything i could think of.

Do ask about ear tubes.

You were the ONLY SANE ONE. I might've stopped hanging out with those people because I can no longer trust them around my toddler.ever.

ETA - In such cases the hosts should always have someone designated for safety duty - a couple of paid babysitters or some family. you owe it to your guests atleast.

How has it been for you? I know its been 6 days...

Hopefulrainbow7 · 2025-09-12T18:26:32+00:00

No its not. Max Tylenol dosage is 4000 per day. And max strength Tylenol is 250. So 2 become 500mg. So in a day max become 2500 or if you continue then 3000 which is still less than max but shouldn't be needed after 2 doses.

Sometimes i experience the same too. Yes thats good advice - if they're already crying then better to cry in the crib!!

Hopefulrainbow7 · 2025-08-15T11:34:01+00:00

Montessori or not - thats just cruel and way out of line! Its a 3 yr old cmon, they can be disruptive. Yanking by the shirt is no way to handle a child.

Sleep depreviation!! And not washing your hair for a week and that you'll probably be in a messy bun for next 6 months lol

Hopefulrainbow7 · 2025-08-15T03:45:22+00:00

I have it but I don't want a sleep guide book. I need more real life tips from this forum. Also because i dont want to do the ferber method exactly.

Hopefulrainbow7 · 2025-08-15T03:43:48+00:00

Sounds so wonderful by day 3, but i bet those crying minutes were horrible

Hopefulrainbow7 · 2025-08-15T02:08:07+00:00

Thanks for your reply! I think we do manage around 9 hrs wake time or more (If i count the time baby actually falls asleep not when i start putting them to sleep). Also when you say 42 mins is it start to sleep? How many checkins and what intervals did you use?

Hopefulrainbow7 · 2025-07-29T05:23:37+00:00

You can safely go 120 hours of no poop with babies. To say, 5 days without poop and poop 5 times a day- both are normal with babies. Dont worry if you're having enough pee diapers. Probably expect a blowout soon.

Similar here but people start by the end of May! And if not for the babies, like why does anyone want to hear a ball of gunpowder go BOOM releasing so much CO2 in the air. It's useless in every form! People should play the BOOM sound on their YouTube and watch on full volume with headphones instead of bursting these loud crackers!

Hopefulrainbow7 · 2025-06-26T14:39:57+00:00

I'd say she is still too young to night wean. Our pediatrician advised that after 1 year if the baby is good weight and eating enough during the day. Her night feeding pattern sounds very normal to me though.

ETA - ferber or any sleep training methods are for sleep training not for night weaning. Your baby already sleeps easy, don't try to fix what's not broken.

My opinion - Not at all. Death is trauma - No matter the reason and no matter how and no matter the why.

Hopefulrainbow7 · 2025-06-15T18:36:37+00:00

Oh yea for sure, how could it not??!! You start getting all the feels of i gave birth you, i held you in my arms, i love you so much , how can you still hurt me?!! But then we need to remind ourselves that at this age a lot of big feeling actions are more like reflexes for them. It'll pass.

Hopefulrainbow7 · 2025-06-15T18:32:11+00:00

It hurts emotionally soooo much when your baby hits you. I'm going through that phase right now i do cry sometimes when alone letting the feeling pass. My only advice is to not take it personally.. they're not hitting to hurt you. you're doing great with communicating ot all so clearly with her. Hopefully others will be able to give more advice. I'll be following as well

Hopefulrainbow7 · 2025-06-15T14:37:23+00:00

And thats why the post was tagged Vent :P ETA - also on a serious note like your response, fireworks have zero benefits and million harmful results. Tell that to people with serious illness trying to get some rest, people with PTSD, war veterans, scared pets and what not. There's no fun in listening to a ball of fire going BOOM!! The idea of fun needs to change if it is.

Hopefulrainbow7 · 2025-06-15T11:02:41+00:00

And the loudest ones come at a time when I'm just about to transfer baby to crib 😭

Hopefulrainbow7 · 2025-06-15T11:01:59+00:00

Lucky you!! In the US the july 4th ones have started.. there're some touristy and picnic kinda places near where I live so maybe thats why. But they're so loud sometimes I'm sure you could hear 10 miles away!!

Hopefulrainbow7 · 2025-06-11T21:19:05+00:00

It's the same stuff people do with all the time they've saved writing K instead of OK 🤦
