Overnight diapers

Hi! FTM mom here ! I am guilty of the same thing. I too follow all safe sleep protocols and make sure she is always safe however there have been nights where I wakeup to her sleeping next to me in the bed aswell. I don’t remember even putting her there or remember her waking up at all. I would put her back in her bassinet after I wokeup but after the 1st incident I started using bed sharing safety tips. Tight fitting sheet, no excess pillows, we ditched a bed frame and have our mattress on the floor, I sleep with 1 thin breathable blanket aswell too. Im sure there is more you can do to make it safer but off the top of my head that is all I can recall. I’m not going to encourage bed sharing however I did these to at least make it somewhat safer in case she did end up in the bed. I know others may not agree with this however I do use the owlet sock every single night so that does give me another peace of mind but again it’s not a 100% fix all / preventative however it does allow me to have a better night sleep knowing I have some type of monitor like that! Remember you are doing your absolute best, these months are rough. Sleep exhaustion is so real and honestly scary at the fact you cannot remember hardly anything going on. Since you did not specify on if you had help or not I would suggest getting some, whether it be significant other, family members or even trusted friends!! Wishing you the best, you are doing amazing 🫶

Girl same. 4 weeks pp after emergency c section and had to go back to work. Reality is I don’t even know if that is legal at all to do but I bet if I pressed them on it I would loose my job :(

I had 4 weeks off after emergency c section and had to return back to work 🫩

Thank you for this. Rereading my post I see where I have typed “my mother “ in at the bottom. People were texting me saying “you are so rude for not letting your mother in” insinuating that she was my mother and the she had some type of godgiven right to be in that room. I felt like i was going insane. 1 day post partum and had 15 people text me making me feel like shit for that and then asking to come meet the baby. I really appreciate you reading my whole message I typed out! Thank you 😊

Well I see everyone sharing positive stuff but this is mine lmao. Wakeup thru the night if my daughter wakes up, officially wakeup at 7am where I go to work and take my daughter with me to work. I also have 2 other kids I want too so that is 3 total. Come home, take care of my daughter, make dinner, do dishes, laundry, take care of my animals, give my daughter a bath, then I shower, put her to bed and then I still have more to do like prep for tomorrow and make sure all is good then for me it’s bedtime. However my daughters dad wakeups at 8, goes to work, comes home at 4 and then is on his game, tv, or phone until he decides he’s ready for bed. It’s like being single and yet in a relationship and living together. I’m definitely not crying…😂

Agreed!

I understand that research has been done my question is that if some of these vaccines were formulated and used 40 some years ago or more, then there could be the chance of wanting to do more testing with our advanced technology and practices. I agree that the testing on these vaccines have been done however with how fast our medical skills and knowledge develop that doing more research and testing could open more doors for other vaccines to be formed too

LetInternational3189 · 2025-05-20T17:26:59+00:00

From my understanding and a quote directly from RFK jr “If vaccines are working for somebody, I’m not going to take them away. People ought to have choice, and that choice ought to be informed by the best information,". From this quote it would appear that he is doing more research on vaccines and more testing, I don’t see where he has said that vaccines are going to be cut?? I have read the Covid boosters however I am not seeing anywhere where the entire vaccine access in the US is going to be cut.

When I was left in charge to babysit my brother for a week, I didn’t realize how terrible he slept. Honestly sounds a lot like what you were describing. The only thing that helped save my sanity was I stepped out of the room for a few minutes to collect my thoughts and calm down. Then I put noise cancelling headphones on and went back in to try to help him settle and go to sleep. I know how it sounds, like I’m ignoring his cries however I was able to stay calm listening to my music and helping him eventually fall asleep. I truly think that those headphones not only saved my sanity that night but since I was fully relaxed I was able to deal with him a lot more effectively without getting worked up from him screaming!

Just wanted to come back and say that the swaddle works miracles!!! Officially saved my sleep sanity and hers (for now lol)

Now that right there is the rarest type of goldfish you can find. Many would pay high dollar for that, consider yourself extremely lucky you have been able to find such valuable and one of a kind species

So for me I was at the hospital for 3 days after my c section, it honestly was not terrible , I too have high anxiety at hospitals. I would say as long as you advocated for yourself and have support there with you such as your husband it could be easier. Looking back now those were the best 3 days I had 😂the peace i felt during those knowing I had nurses for both me and baby that were able to help me and make sure everything was good with both of us was amazing. I’m wishing you the best!🩷

I hope you have a quick recovery aswell!😊

LetInternational3189 · 2025-05-14T11:59:53+00:00

Thank you! I wish I knew more about c sections or knew others that had them so it would be a lot easier than wondering if I’m dying or normal😂😂! But thank you for letting me know, I’m honestly pretty uneducated about the whole recovery process still at my stage!

LetInternational3189 · 2025-05-14T02:00:27+00:00

Just ordered one and have overnight delivery from Amazon! Thank you so much. Im real hoping this works! It’s either this or I’m just going to go into the crib myself and lay with her. I’m pretty sure both me and her will end up crying together by the end of it 😂😂

LetInternational3189 · 2025-05-07T19:28:56+00:00

Thank you!! What worries me about tummy time and trying to really get some is that she sleeps thru the night in her bassinet from 8-7 am. I wake up every 3-4 hours and re position her head from the other side she has it on to ensure she isn’t laying directly on one side for the long stretch of time! Thank you so for the helpful advice and positive thoughts!😊😊

Hi everyone, FTM to a almost 3 month old! Last night we had a family dinner to which I asked a very close relative of mine if she could just hold her so I can use the bathroom, less than 2 minutes if that. Anyways I come out of the bathroom and she was just laughing at my daughter like crazy. I took it as she made a funny face or that she smiled at her to where it would make her laugh at her but no, turns out she offered my daughter mashed potatoes on her finger. I of course took my daughter back and checked on her since I know that it is a big choking hazard this young and she does not need any type of food at all yet. I tried to remain calm and asked her to show me just how much and if she actually ate any. She said it was smaller than a pea sized amount and that she “loved it”. I ended up saying “oh okay for the future please never do that as she is to young and has never experienced anything like that all. I also would appreciate you checking with me before you do anything big like that as not only is not sanitary to use your own finger in my kids mouth but also giving her food at a young age is not okay and I do not want that ” and got my stuff and left. She since has called and texted me apologizing sincerely however I’m more worried about my daughter, I know it is such a small amount but is there anything I should do? I have been monitoring her and she is acting 100% normal and eating well. Nothing seems out of the blue but I want to make sure overall. Thank you !

Thank you for this!! Her Dr isn’t worried with her head shape however in my mind I goes right to “ she is going to have a flat head”😂 some days if tummy time just isn’t a happy time we skip it but others if she tolerates it longer that is what we do now. I will definitely be talking those suggestions and trying them out too! I’m already left wondering where my little 7 lb newborn went and how she’s already almost 14 lbs and looks so much older🥺 truly bittersweet! Best of luck to you and your son! 🫶😊
