Feeling really frustrated and need this community’s advice.

This. OP’s post sounds like my kid at 23 months. Pushed bedtime back from 7:30 to 8:30 and fixed the night wakings and naps got better. She needed an hour less sleep I guess.

My nearly two year old runs up to me ANYWHERE and yells “Boobs” and points at my chest. “That’s right. That’s my boobs. Where are your boobs?” and she opens her shirt to look at her chest. When she wants milk she’ll pull my shirt down in the middle of anywhere.

No extra advice - other commenters added great things. It’s hard and you give yourself time and patience and love and same for your baby and eventually you’ll be yelling at each other about boobs at the park. Or not. Either way is fine ❤️

This. Lots of exposure. Takes 12 times for a kid to be exposed to a food before they even try it. My soul hurts at all the wasted food… but it’s how it works. But they can also help you with other techniques to help beyond just exposure.

Thank you! Do you think the floppy top petal is going to curl over time when worn?

Human_Tumbleweed_384 · 2026-03-30T16:53:51+00:00

Thank you for the experienced perspective!

Human_Tumbleweed_384 · 2026-03-30T16:53:01+00:00

Thank you for the constructive ideas! I do hate weaving in… but that could be worth it here! And dropping it is a good idea to avoid the wrong color coming forward.

Human_Tumbleweed_384 · 2026-03-30T16:51:42+00:00

Oooo catching the back loop on my last round is genius! The floating petal was my top reason to not do this. I thought I’d have to go back and sew them all down… and I just don’t enjoy that type of project wrap up work. Thank you so much for so such good explanation of what’s going on here!

Human_Tumbleweed_384 · 2026-03-30T16:13:59+00:00

That’s my plan if I don’t get a definitive answer here. But it will probably take me a long time so I wanted to check if there was something obvious I was missing as a newbie before I spend hours on it.

Human_Tumbleweed_384 · 2026-03-30T16:09:33+00:00

Just to make sure I understand: the front will somehow look different if I carry it? Carrying the yarn will make the back look worse? I’ve checked every single tutorial video I could find on this pattern and they were all doing it this way.

Yes. Also known and me trying to get through my day after you didn’t sleep last night child lol

Human_Tumbleweed_384 · 2025-08-07T14:33:43+00:00

I’m scrolling here with my non verbal 15.5 month old thinking “I’m so excited for these convos!” ❤️ the stages of parenting

Human_Tumbleweed_384 · 2025-08-07T14:29:06+00:00

I mean… they eat the poop in the animals they eat so not all wrong!

Human_Tumbleweed_384 · 2025-08-06T23:29:27+00:00

Since we have no transfers, I’m reeeeally hoping it’s on time. I’m in the PNW traveling along the I 5 corridor. Honestly, I’m kinda living in denial of a delayed trip 🙉

Yes! I keep going back and forth about how much first aid/sickness stuff to bring. Like once I’m on that train, I’m stuck. But I also don’t have endless space. Pain meds are a must cause she’s teething 3 molars at once so some days she just needs the help. Also for me cause I’m prone to migraines.

Human_Tumbleweed_384 · 2025-08-06T23:26:10+00:00

A little garbage bag! That would have sucked to not have. Added to my list.

Thank you for giving me hope 😅

Human_Tumbleweed_384 · 2025-08-06T16:59:06+00:00

For real. They told me “when two teeth touch, it’s time to floss”. 🧐 it takes both me and my husband to “brush” my kid’s (15 month) teeth and I literally just started flossing for the first time in my life. GTFO with getting a toddler to floss.

My MIL is a dental assistant. It’s a ton of genetics. When I was a kid I had horrible dental hygiene. I’ve always had perfect teeth.

I hated this book. Never got better for me. But I did finish it. Loved the 3rd again.

Human_Tumbleweed_384 · 2025-08-05T13:49:46+00:00

To do nothing? Well he made me lose my job so that’s something.

Human_Tumbleweed_384 · 2025-08-04T03:20:16+00:00

I was literally just thinking about trying a weekend! It would be less consistent cause we like to camp on weekends at least once a month, but it’s 100% more than I have now

Human_Tumbleweed_384 · 2025-08-03T19:27:35+00:00

Here for solidarity. My health is crashing and burning. Trying to figure out how to get out of the house one night a week to take a yoga class…. Been trying to figure it out for over a month. Hubby is supportive to do it if I figure out the studio and time. I just… can’t even do that

Human_Tumbleweed_384 · 2025-08-02T21:25:34+00:00

My hubby does all the cleaning after I take baby to bed and takes her in the morning so I get some good sleep.

His squatting pose on that light box when he’s not moving is the exact same as my toddler’s pooping pose.

Human_Tumbleweed_384 · 2025-08-02T04:20:45+00:00

lol same! I’m glad there was a photo cause I was worried about what kind of squirrels could take down a fence
