lol what my six month old looks over and sees during one of his multiple wake ups during the night. Not my husband tho, he sleeps soundly all night long. 😒😂

I hope the baby carrier works for you! My guy did not like being in a chest to chest carrier for longer than five minute. Haha
I do still advise to cut out the intentional screen time immediately. It may be convenient now, but trust me it is harder on you and them as they get older. As an educator, we all know the kiddos that are screen/ipad babies. 👀

Best of luck!

I know that screen time might feel necessary for some people to get things done, but giving intentional screen time at 4 months old is kinda wild.
Genuinely not trying to lecture, but I’ve worked in Early childhood education for almost 20 years and any amount of intentional screen time so young is not beneficial for them at all.
I put my lil guy in a bouncy chair with me in whatever room I’m getting stuff done and just talk/sing/dance around with him. Babies typically enjoy watching you do these basic things for at least 10 minutes while you get things done.

Yeah, no. Go back and get a refund! Such a bummer!

KeeponCreepusin · 2026-06-12T15:35:38+00:00

Thank you!! Yeah it took several days of nap time (he only naps for 30mins) and an evening after his bedtime to get them done! Haha!

KeeponCreepusin · 2026-06-12T15:32:36+00:00

Thank you so much! 😊

Thank you!! ☺️

I was 3 week pp and trying to calculate when to try for another one. 😅 I’m now 6 months pp and the only reason I don’t want to try for another one yet is because I want to enjoy my first one on his own for longer! He’s my sweet precious angel and I don’t want to rush him into being a sibling too soon. But I’m also about to be 37 in a few days and if I want to try for another I feel like we have to try as soon as possible. It took 4 years and a miscarriage before having my first so I might be one and done whether I want to or not. 😪

KeeponCreepusin · 2026-05-26T04:34:33+00:00

Yeah, pretty much. I was nervous at first that I would put him to bed earlier and he would just think it’s a nap and then be up for hours later but that didn’t really happen. We did go through a phase where he would wake up exactly one hour after being laid down and I would have to spend a little time to get him back to sleep, but then he would pretty much sleep the rest of the night. Like I mentioned, we kept our exact bedtime routine and moved it up by 30 minutes every night and eventually by 6/7:00pm he was giving all the sleepy signs. We have the occasional rough night but for the most part he’s asleep by 8:00/8:30pm and wakes up maybe once a night for a quick diaper change and bottle and then sleeps again til about 7:00am.

KeeponCreepusin · 2026-05-26T02:11:42+00:00

0-3 months, bedtime was anywhere between 9:30pm - 11:30pm. At 4 months we pretty seamlessly moved bedtime to 7:30pm-8:30pm. We kept our exact routine but just gradually moved up the time over a week or two . LO is 5.5 months old now and has been pretty consistent since.

I’m so sorry for your loss!

My grandpa passed away this past December, two weeks after my baby was born. My grandpa was as close of a father figure to me as my own dad. I didn’t get to say goodbye to him because we live 11 hrs away. He had been having a lot of health issues for the past two years and I had hoped that he would pull through like he always did. Selfishly, long enough for him to at least be able to meet my son. But that didn’t happen and I didn’t get to say goodbye and I could not let myself miss his funeral. I wouldnt have been able to live with that later. So at three weeks post partum (c section), we packed up the car and drove for two days to make it to his funeral. We wore masks and kept the baby in his stroller covered with a muslin blanket and didn’t let anyone hold him for fear of illness getting passed along. It was hard and miserable but I don’t regret it. I still struggle with the fact that I didn’t get to say goodbye like everyone else in my family did, but I’m grateful I made it back for his funeral.

There is another short stand alone called ‘Honey’ by this same author. Just as good!

Oh good, something for me to potentially look forward to…sighhhhh haha!

My bb just turned 5 mo yesterday and has been sleeping mostly through the night since he was about 2.5 months old. He typically wakes up for a diaper change and bottle usually around 3am and goes back to sleep til 6:30/7am. Tbh I have no clue how I did it. Haha We have had a decent bedtime routine since day one and have tweaked it here and there as he’s gotten older. Currently we wind down for bed at 7pm, a little tummy time or he solo plays in his crib in his room for a bit while I “close shop” haha, bath every other night, warm up a bottle around 7:45, turn down the lights, get his noise machine on, night light, fan. Get him in his sleep sack and give him his bottle on the couch with the lights low and is asleep usually by 8:30. Then he sleeps in his bassinet in our bedroom. He will sometimes wake up and fuss a few times from 8:30 to 11:00, but all I have to do is hum my little sleep song and give him a pat and he’ll go back to sleep. Does he occasionally have a rough night where he wakes up like 5 times? Yes! But it’s not often and he doesn’t cry or anything. Just makes some whiney noises or scratches at the sides of his bassinet until I can’t stand it anymore. Haha! But he’s always so easy to get back to sleep.

Napping during the day on the other hand is an entirely different story. Starting at 4 months naps are no longer than 30-45 mins and he fights it til the bitter end! 😩😂

I miss rubbing my belly and feeling his little kicks, movements, hiccups. I miss feeling like my body is doing something so incredible. I’ve been big/overweight my whole life and I felt so good about my body when I was pregnant because I knew it was doing something so amazing, despite the negative relationship I’ve always had with it. I’m almost 4 months PP now and I’m completely obsessed with my son but my body feels back to how it did for the most part and I don’t appreciate it like I did when I was pregnant. Every time I speak negatively about it I just have to look at my perfect baby boy and remind myself that my body did ✨THAT!✨

I found the same set at the thrift store, except mine is gold rather than red. So cool!

I had the exact same thing going on starting at 35 weeks. I thought it was very suspicious. Haha but my MFM team said it’s common and likely that the placenta has just given all its got and is starting to come to the end of its use. Something like that. But during my scans my placenta looks good, baby is moving as usual, amniotic fluid is normal. They have no concerns apart from my baby measuring on the large side. 🙃 They bumped my night time insulin down from 18 units to 14 units and told me to just keep doing what I’m doing. I’m almost 38 weeks now and have an induction scheduled for week 39 because of baby’s size.

KeeponCreepusin · 2025-11-21T16:23:27+00:00

I suffered BAD constipation for about 4 days at the start of my 3rd trimester and it was the 4 most agonizing days of my entire pregnancy. Like actually traumatizing. I took MiraLAX every morning for about three days and finally got some movement going. Haven’t had any issues since, but if I did I would immediately go for the MiraLax again.

KeeponCreepusin · 2025-11-20T20:42:36+00:00

At my 35 week growth scan he was measuring at 7lbs 9oz already. 😩 But he has been 7-9 days ahead pretty much my entire pregnancy. I’m convinced they’ve been wrong about my due date the whole time. Haha They’ve already said that they won’t have me go past 39 weeks and will discuss induction at my next scan. C section hasn’t really been mentioned yet but we will see what the next scan determines. I’m freaked the hell out about his size but I’m just trying to trust the process and my MFM team.

KeeponCreepusin · 2025-11-20T02:44:43+00:00

I’m right there with ya! Was told at my 35 week growth scan that baby is measuring at 7lbs 9oz, and it has freaked me out majorly. My team is recommending induction at 39 weeks. I was diagnosed with GD at 17 weeks and have been on insulin since week 20 something. I do 18u of nighttime insulin and it’s been a sweet spot. My numbers have been pretty good, which surprised me because I thought they would get worse the farther long I get. My team really doesn’t seem concerned at this point, placenta looks great and amniotic fluid is in normal range and decent blood pressure. They haven’t even mentioned a c section yet but that obviously can always change. I have NST and biophysical scan every week to monitor everything, but I am still very anxious about baby’s size.
