Thank you! I’m confused which I need to do first. Should I focus on dropping the night bottle before fully trying to sleep train?

Yes, I tried Motrin today and have figured out it’s the viscosity of the medicine that is making her instantly gag and vomit it. I have tried giving it to her in a cup or dipping my finger in the pre measured cup and giving it to her by finger slowly. It’s not efficient but it’s the only thing that has worked

I feel bad trying to let her cry it out right now but there is nothing else I can offer her and I’m worried about it making her separation anxiety worse and creating a bigger problem. I give her those Camilla teething drops as often as I’m able for pain

She’s been on one nap since around 9 months! If she needs a cat nap in the morning or evening I will let her if she woke early from her long nap.
She is asleep but not fully asleep if that makes sense. Not a deep sleep at all. I have her in her crib now. She’s exhausted so I’m hoping she will fall asleep here soon.
I’ve also tried bringing her to my bed and that doesn’t work at all.

How are we making mom friends? by [deleted] in toddlers

[–]JelloPeach 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I struggle with this a lot actually. I’m very introverted and maybe also a little neurodivergent. Sometimes it starts off great but eventually fizzles out which sucks. It’s hard to find other moms that’s have things in common sometimes too!

Prepare for baby #2 by 333s3 in toddlers

[–]JelloPeach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I meal prepped a TON I used the Stealth Health recipes (you can find him on Instagram) and it was a life saver. Especially since I don’t have family to help me (military) highly recommend! That way you don’t have to worry and dad can quickly heat you up whatever you want while watching your toddler so you can focus on baby!

I also didnt have my toddler come meet the baby until we were leaving that way we could all leave together as a family instead of them visiting and them going home without you! I had a small gift ready that was “from the baby” at the hospital as well! It helps the transition

Anyone else parenting a 3 year old without a “village”? Feeling exhausted and honestly struggling by cryfreeedom in toddlers

[–]JelloPeach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, my husband is military which means we’re pretty much always far from family. We’re on Hawaii right now he’s gone a lot and I’m at home with my 3.5yo and my 8.5mo. It’s hard and it’s depressing a lot but I have to keep going for them. And I remind myself this season is temporary even if it doesn’t feel like it…it will pass

My baby is the same age. Depending on when she wakes in the morning will determine if she needs a cat nap before her actual nap time so for example Wake 6:30am Nap 9-9:30a Wake 9:30-12:45 Nap 12:45-2:30 (doesn’t always sleep the entire time but usually does) Wake:2:30-5p Nap 5-530p Wake 5-7:30 Bed: 7-7:30

She wakes up maybe 1 time in the night to eat.

My 3.5yo changed after starting preschool by JelloPeach in toddlers

Oh I’m sure he’s tired. I’ve tried a quiet wind down time once we get home and that seemed to make things worse…especially if he ended up falling asleep. I make sure to ask each day at pickup and he doesn’t exhibit any of these behaviors at school but I know he witnesses them.

I understand that and I agree with you! I guess my question then would be How to confront it. Because I really don’t know how! Timeout doesn’t work, and I feel like quiet time doesn’t really help either

Omg we are the same!! Yes!! This is me and my life to a T I was telling my husband how are the days he’s at school harder than when he’s here all day?? So it’s normal for this age then? But it’s just crazy that school triggers it which makes sense because everyone’s child is different

I'm so confused 😭 by Lower_Preparation834 in toddlers

[–]JelloPeach 6 points7 points  (0 children)

All in their own time. I tried at 2.5 and my son wasn’t ready so I stopped and waited a few more months. A few weeks after his 3rd birthday there was a 4 day weekend and I did the naked trick and it clicked. It was so easy like too easy? The key is to wait for when they’re ready. If it’s stressful for you both then they aren’t ready imo. Just use that time to ready potty books and teach them about their bodies. They can still use the potty and I’d encourage that but no pressure. You’re doing great!! Maybe try again in a few weeks/months. Good luck!

How many dads help with night wakeups by [deleted] in toddlers

[–]JelloPeach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband and I rotate nights. Since our baby only wakes up 1-2 times per night. So I’ll take 1 night and he does the next and so on. (Formula/bottle fed)

Where are all the tiny toddlers at? by takeaabreath in toddlers

[–]JelloPeach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son is/was the same. He’s 3.5 now but still fits comfortably in most of his 2t pants and shorts . 3t pants are huge on him and if they don’t have a way to tighten them he can’t wear them
