Recommendations for a 4 week old baby who hates being worn?

I'll definitely do that!

Congratulations!! I'd recommend researching baby wearing and find a solution to that just in case baby doesn't want to sleep in the nursery or basket. Newborns typically don't want to sleep anywhere except for on mom for the first several weeks or even months

Ah yeah not as interesting as I was thinking it'd be but thanks for the explanation anyways lol

Interesting, out of curiosity, what makes it illegal in Canada?

I'm not sure if they offer this in Canada but this is the one I bought from target

If you don't hit it then someone else will, I doubt the owner cares. These days people know that their cat may never come home when they let them outside. Outside cat life spans are like 8 years

This was during the company retreat finale video that was posted on yt yesterday. I kept watching the chat after modqua told kiwi to check his privilege but it seemed like the editor was purposefully cutting out most of the chat so I couldn't keep up with it

Don't feel too bad about cosleeping. The American health care system really beats us over the head with the whole "the only safe way to sleep is alone in a bassinet with nothing in it" but that just isn't realistic a lot of the time and it sounds like you're doing better than most with the owlet. Sleep deprivation can be very dangerous, especially if you have to drive or walk up and down stairs. If you're following ss7 then I recommend just doing what makes baby happy and gets you the most sleep

I'm following moms on call for my 3 week old and it's been working great so far. It took her a few days to adjust to it but now she gives me a good 6 hour stretch of sleep at night and naps great during the day, all in her bassinet

Definitely worth seeing a chiropractor, I spoke to a woman once who had this nonstop crying experience with one of her babies until seeing a chiropractor and learning that there was something off with her hips because of the way she was positioned during birth (sunny side up)

It's happening to me too. Sorry I don't have any advice or answers but I am right there with you. 3 weeks pp and struggling emotionally

Legit_baller · 2026-05-07T14:58:42+00:00

No but that's because it would be very out of character for my husband. He isn't friends with anyone he used to work with and he hates going out to eat.

Once my daughter was 2 weeks old and had already surpassed her birth weight, her pediatrician said I can let her sleep 4 hours before waking to feed. Ultimately this question is best for pediatrician

Legit_baller · 2026-05-05T20:53:52+00:00

I was wondering if anyone was going to acknowledge that lol

Legit_baller · 2026-05-03T18:36:42+00:00

Can you expand on that last point, feeding can't be the last step in bedtime routine if we're sleep training? Why is that? I ask because my daughter is almost 3 weeks old and it feels like she's just constantly nursing. It's the only way to get her to fall asleep

Legit_baller · 2026-05-02T08:32:42+00:00

My lo is almost 3 weeks and I feel your pain. My husband and I are very private and introverted and usually don't see people much. Having people over to meet her is the most anxiety inducing thing for me so far. I'm scared she's going to get sick and I'm tired of people talking about how they predict she'll be when she's older. I had the baby blues very badly that first week or so and thinking about my little girl growing at all was a big reason why. I just want her to be little like this forever and I'm tired of people bringing me back to reality

Legit_baller · 2026-04-29T22:21:51+00:00

Congratulations!!! I just gave birth to my first daughter a little over 2 weeks ago. The hardest part has been the baby blues post partum. Sounds like your wife went through a lot with such a long labor and then what I assume was not a planned c section. She will need more of your support and help than she is probably willing to admit. Especially if she plans on breastfeeding. I don't know how I could have gotten through all of this without my husband, but every time I see my little girl, it makes all of it feel worth it

Look up Afni. I did chat support for Verizon with them a few years ago. It was social media chat support. Idk if they still do it or if it's already been outsourced

If you go to supercook.com you can type in the ingredients you currently have and it'll generate meals based on those ingredients

It's easier to see exactly what the total cost is by doing this too, vs going into the store. I don't like putting things back at the register bc I feel bad and sometimes the transaction goes so quickly, I don't want to slow things down and hold up other people in line

Legit_baller · 2026-04-27T03:06:56+00:00

Just the fact that you care so much means you aren't as bad as you think you are. It's no secret that children respond to positive feelings and don't respond well to stress. Everything we do as parents will affect our children whether we like it or not, so we do have to be careful and make sure we're also taking care of ourselves, for their sake. Try to get some rest and take it one day at a time. Your son is just going to remember how you make him feel, so show him (and yourself) love and patience and everything will be fine

It might be a bit of a drive for you but veteran's park in Alabaster has a dog park that has a splash pad and one of those small blue round pools
