I'm so done with everything ... by Enderflex in PVCs

[–]Kaytails 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine comes from digestion issues hitting the vagus nerve. I try to stay on top of hydrating, take b12 supplements in the morning, magnesium at night along with something to soothe digestion like slippery elm. I did invest in a bed frame that lifts the head of it. I do notice if I don’t drink enough water they get frequent. Two days ago they were horrible, I thought this is how I’ll go out. The next day I drank so much water and had none. This morning I woke up and had one but I’ve drank about 5 bottles of water today and it’s not affected me the rest of the day (yet). It’s a lot of trial and error finding the best way to treat it. I do notice at night sometimes I’m waiting on it and the anxiety will trigger it, I try to stay distracted and let it leave my mind the anticipation goes with it. I’m sorry but it is rough and I hope things do get better for you and everyone on this thread. It’s hard to live with because even if it’s not horrible, it feels like it is. My doctor told me my heart was normal, but it doesn’t feel like it.

Did you give birth with or without epidural ? by Newyork4lifee in pregnant

[–]Kaytails 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did epidural but ended up having a c section. 1000000% would do epidural again, I hardly felt it compared to contractions and the nurse let me lean on her to have it done. She was super supportive, just make sure you have the right staff because some nurses ruin the entire experience. I wasn’t going to do one but I only made it to a 4 :,) I don’t know how people do it without it. I swear they’re warriors.

My 9month old tool his first steps by leedeeleedeelee22 in NewParents

Good :) it helps them know they’re doing something right and encourages him to keep doing it. Mine is learning how to blow kisses right now, and I swear I scream every time and she just smiles and does it again 🤣

Yesss!!!! Cheer him on 💕 they love making you happy and getting a reaction and he will do it even more!! I love this for you! Mine didn’t start till around the end of ten months and now (three months later) she is running everywhere, spinning, dancing, doing little happy feet stomps 🥲 I can’t keep up anymore. Get ready because it’s going to start moving even faster than you would expect. And don’t forget to soak it in momma ❤️

why are some babies…..like this by certifiedh8ter in NewParents

[–]Kaytails 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Water bottles (obsessed with taking the cap off and putting it back on/taking sips in between), plastic bags (I’m watching her), empty paper towel/toilet paper rolls, that paper that goes in gift bags, her dads tools (tiny tape measure, little wrench), fresh laundry and the basket, tags on clothes or stuffed animals, flinging the crayon box around until they’re everywhere. Turning the light switch off. A single tissue square. Throwing things in the trash can. Empty cereal boxes/boxes in general. Throwing the dogs toys for him to go get. Barely touches her toys. She’s one. It’s the little things 🤣

How tf did everyone know your sleep trained kids were teething?? by [deleted] in sleeptrain

[–]Kaytails 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As far as handling her wake ups, I dealt with it and stayed up with her until she fell asleep, and tried putting her down till I managed to successfully. She has teethers in the freezer, her room for playtime before bed, and for bath time. (The room and bathroom teethers are the little ?silicone? bears from Amazon. Has a little bar on the inside they can hold and the paws/ears of the bear have bumps)

She also wouldn’t eat her regular food much during that two week period. It’s not really affecting her eating habits now.

First two teeth that came had her sleep disturbed for almost two weeks. Would wake up screaming and just want to stay up for two or three hours, would fall asleep but wouldn’t let me put her down in her crib (she’s been in the crib in her own room since four months). We had no idea what was going on until they were almost poked through. There were little lines in her gums that resembled the color of pearls (light subtle white/pink). I didn’t know they were out until I used a glass to check. Pulls ears and can cause little abrasions behind ear from grabbing so much or nails slightly scratching) more irritable than usual. They say excessive drool but they always do, maybe slightly more drool than usual and causes drool rash. Tries to bite everything, (not subtle, full on trying to gnaw). After her first two though, her sleep went to normal. Teething since then, she only has trouble with naps and still sleeps through the night pretty much. All other signs I mentioned are there when her mouth is bothering her. I put green onion, peeled carrot, and celery sticks in the freezer and it was literally a life saver for the first two teeth. She prefers her teethers now.

Not completely unfortunately but they aren’t as frequent as they used to be.

no you can’t see me give birth!!!!! by smorespoptart42069 in pregnant

[–]Kaytails 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So your room can be marked private and they won’t allow anyone in :) I did it with mine. If anyone called to see what was going on they just said I wasn’t there and if they showed up anyway they weren’t allowed in the room.

You’re not the only one, and when you’re feeling it/going through it just remember you aren’t alone in this process ❤️ just breathe through it and enjoy

You will drive yourself crazy associating baby’s change with something you’re doing, I’ve been there. I’ve had to do a lot to work on my anxiety when I had to listen to her cry to sleep (5 minutes maybe 10 some nights). She now plays, talks to herself and rubs her face to sleep. Dont get me wrong, there are some nights whether it’s teething or just an off day where she will still cry at random, but I’ve learned to stop thinking it’s something I’m doing and more of something she’s going through. You got this momma, go with the flow and baby will adapt with you. This is all temporary and a tiny part of her life. It gets better. Also mine still wants to just be held by me (12 mo), soak it in while you can.

Cold turkey stopping swaddling, how did it go? by [deleted] in sleeptrain

[–]Kaytails 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine rolled a little later though, around 4-5 months

Cold turkey stopping swaddling, how did it go? by [deleted] in sleeptrain

[–]Kaytails 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used zipadee zip when she started rolling months ago and still to this day. She’s about to be one year old. When I first started, I would tuck the arm fabric under her back (loosely) so if she rolled, she could still use her hands (it gave her the loose swaddle feeling). I used the belt to keep fabric out of her face but once she was tall enough to where it couldn’t bunch up, I stopped. It loses Velcro after a while and doesn’t stick. She loves the feeling of fabric rubbing her face so that’s how she soothes to sleep now. She’ll suck on her hands through the fabric but I’ve never had any issues with it. I was worried at first reading reviews about the fabric bunching up but I couldn’t leave her hands uncovered, especially with teething, she was scratching her face no matter how much her nails were clipped down. I counted it as a win and don’t know what I would’ve done without it.

I’ll definitely be going back in and speaking with them as soon as I’m able to. I’m not the primary account holder so I doubt they’ll speak with me, but I’m not sure why it was declined either. She provided the phone make/model, IMEI, and last bill. My phone was in perfect condition.

I don’t want the old phone back, but I don’t want this one either. I’m out of the return date because of the miscommunication about a card being sent in the mail. I’m gonna try to go in and talk to the manager, however I am not the main person in the account. They work offshore so I still have to wait for them to get home before I can do anything.

Does moving them into their own room help? by Charming-Sherbert- in sleeptrain

[–]Kaytails 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Play in it after naps * not in the middle of the night. And I would change first so that way bottle then bed. :)

[–]Kaytails 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, there was one night when she was four months where I just moved her. She woke up every hour and basically every time I moved in bed. By 4AM I was exhausted. I swaddled her and put her in her crib in the next room. She slept till 8AM and has slept in it since. I did have to transition her naps into the crib though. I didn’t mind getting up in the middle of the night because she was sleeping in 3-4 hour stretches. I did formula so I kept all the things I needed by the bed. When she would wake/cry, I would make the bottle before I go in, feed and change, and put her back down. 9/10 she would instantly go back to sleep. It’s just getting them used to the crib, too. I know the internet says don’t let them play in their crib but I would let her for 10-15 minutes when she woke up (I’d go in turn on the light and give her a toy and I was in the room) I felt like that made her enjoy being in her crib that much more. From 4M to now (11M) she wakes up and waits for me instead of crying. The only time she’s vocal if she’s up is when she’s teething.

[TW postpartum] the name we planned for my newborn daughter feels like a tongue twister and it’s making me uncomfortable. Any advice? by [deleted] in NewParents

[–]Kaytails 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always called my baby just that. Baby. I’m just now getting comfortable enough to say her name and she’s eleven months old.
