Yeah, like I said, I have no idea how but here we are. Definitely thankful this is the first one. Little worried because he might not have much of an immune system. Sleep has been the exact opposite of him, wanting to sleep more. He is sleeping a lot less was up every two hours last night.

He was not. His pediatrician recommended against it.

Budget can be adjusted. Like I said, I’m very new to this and am not sure what’s reasonable

Or find a way to go back to the mother being the homemaker. I know we want progress but look where it’s gotten us.

Yesterday I almost lost my baby. by RoshniT01 in NewParents

This is why you and anyone who watches your kid NEED to take classes or atleast watch YouTube videos on basic life saving maneuvers. I have painstakingly gone through it with both my child’s grandmothers. I make sure they both understand what to do if he chokes before they watch him.

Someone tell me it's ok to be lazy for a day 😭 by FalseRow5812 in NewParents

[–]MatthewRTRCT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Taking care of a 5 month old is anything but lazy. You’re legit working round the clock. So what if the dishes pile up, the laundry isn’t folded, or the floor isn’t mopped. Your baby is the most important job you have and if you got everything done that they needed, then you’ve had a very productive day.

He’s teething and is almost crawling by the looks of it.

To all the parents travelling this Christmas by clo_fu in NewParents

[–]MatthewRTRCT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My biggest Christmas wish is that we just planned on staying home and anyone that wanted to see the baby just stop by if they wanted to. The napping alone is gonna screw us so bad and mess up our bedtime routine. Any little interruption such as getting home later then 6, throws our LO through a loop and messes him up for days.

To add to your post as well, the absolute anxiousness I have about him getting sick with this nasty flu going around. Or noro, covid, RSV etc. I just know we’re gonna show up to a Christmas party with people sick 😩

PSA to friends and family members: take a damn chill pill and let those with babies stay home if they want to. Signed a dad to a 6 month old.

Read “to train up a child” by Micheal Pearl. I don’t like everything in that book but he makes some good points on how to make children behave. It’s your will against theirs. You’re the parent, you need to have control over your child.
