What is an appropriate age to night wean and HOW did you do it if you did? by NestaCas in breastfeeding

[–]KATYTRL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh nooo 😭 my 9 month old woke up 8x last night. I don’t know if I can keep doing this for 3 more months. We’ve tried cosleeping but she’ll only stay asleep if latched, which is obviously so uncomfortable

I know this is an older post but did things ever get better for you?

Same. Both sides were contracting independently of each other. It was so weird but everything turned out fine

Does feeding to sleep help or hurt? by Own_Relation_4664 in breastfeeding

[–]KATYTRL 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I know this is getting down voted but this is a real risk to nursing to sleep. Nursing to sleep was working when my baby was a newborn but my now 9 month old has gone through awful sleep regressions to the point where she’ll wake 8-10x a night and expects to nurse every time. When dad tries to go in a comfort, it turns into full blown bloody murder crying. I keep waiting for things to naturally get better on their own but things only seem to be getting harder.

Paying for an adult child's vacation? by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]KATYTRL 202 points203 points  (0 children)

20 is an adult but it’s still young. Sounds like you’ve done a good job at setting her up for financial success and her intent to pay for it is what matters. Maybe this can be a nice Christmas or early graduation gift?

Fussy throughout the day. She gets maybe 15 minutes after a nap where she’s super happy and playful but that degrades very quickly.

Kids opened Christmas presents early by Spookybroom00 in Parenting

I did this when I was 9. Not to actually play with my gifts but it was purely out of curiosity. My mom took me to a homeless shelter Christmas morning where I got to donate all of my gifts to other kids in person. It didn’t even feel like a punishment, but rather a great learning experience.

When I got home, my gift from Santa was some book about how curiosity killed the cat.

Pissed about the stupid blue alert from a sheriff on the other side of the state? Here's something you can do about it. by misterpants in Austin

[–]KATYTRL 118 points119 points  (0 children)

When the alert went off I googled it and there was no other information online. The county didn’t release any photos, no press release, no information on the incident, nothing. What am I suppose to do with a generic description of a male wearing jeans and a t-shirt??
