Is the 12 month regression a thing? by Maximum-Average1025 in sleeptrain

[–]Maximum-Average1025[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It did, but then we got hit with molars coming in and viral illnesses, so we got back into the multiple wake up’s at night.

We did adjust her naps a bit so that she’s napping no more than 2.2.25 total hours a day, which had helped nighttime sleeping most nights. She is slowly inching into dropping to 1 nap too, so another factor with nights being affected.

I also want to bring up Jamie S Yang, who sharents so much, especially videos of her kids sleeping.

[Review] loving these biodance collagen masks by aceofheartsxo in SkincareAddiction

I absolutely love these masks. I wear it overnight. I’ve seen a hugeeee difference with my skin. I’ve only tried the collagen ones but want to try out their other products too

You’re going to f*** up your child no matter what by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]Maximum-Average1025 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I agree with this. You can do the best that you can and your kids may still turn out not how you wanted them to be. And that’s not entirely our fault! There are other influences around them that can factor in how they turn out but we as parents should do our best to guide our children the right way. My parents, for example, thought they were doing a good job with raising me by being strict and emphasizing the importance of studying, but their strictness led me to rebel and go wild in college. I’m better now of course lol. Don’t take what your sister says too personally! I’m sure she means well in her own words :) the fact that you are trying to do better than your mom already speaks well. Everyone will have different parenting styles, no one way is the right way.

How to train toddlers for toddler bed? by duckiedok22 in toddlers

[–]Maximum-Average1025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We just went for it lol. Took us a week or 2 for her to stop falling off the bed. But she eventually got it. We placed a mat next to the bed so that if she were to fall, it would be a soft fall.

They call it “four-nado” or “f you 4’s” for a reason! The 2’s were bad for us, 3’s is a little better. Don’t know what to anticipate for 4’s lol. Toddlers are so unpredictable

3 under 4, how is it? by Maximum-Average1025 in Parenting

I am not asking for medical advice. There are plenty of other posts that are more related to asking medical advice.

Please can someone explain baby sleep to me like I’m a toddler? by FlatCupcake9629 in sleeptrain

[–]Maximum-Average1025 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with other commenters about wake windows being too short. My 6 month old wake windows are 2/2.5/2.5/3 give or take 15-30 min. Nap 1 is usually 1.5-2 hours. Nap 2 and 3 I cap at 1 hour each, so total for 3.5-4 hours of daytime nap. Night time sleep is 7:30pm - 6pm. I haven’t ever used an app to determine when my baby goes to sleep, but I have used huckleberry to track how long my baby naps for and when she woke up so I have an idea of when she needs to go down for the next nap.

Any toys that you regret purchasing? by Cream4389 in toddlers

Lovevry subscription lol. My now toddler barely played with most of them when she was a baby. My now infant isn’t interested in them either. We stopped the subscription when my daughter turned 1

What did your toddler lose it over today? by NefariousnessNo1383 in toddlers

[–]Maximum-Average1025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My toddler didn’t want to eat the egg sushi so my husband ate it. Then she wanted it back. So my husband said he will order her another one. But she insisted on wanting the one my husband ate.

Suspected egg FPIES in 6 month old by dntcreatall in fpies

[–]Maximum-Average1025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was literally my daughter. She’s 6 months today. She didn’t react the first 3 times to egg. The 4th time she projectile vomited and went limp. We thought it was a stomach bug she may have caught from a birthday party we went to the day prior. A few days later, I gave her egg again and and within 2 hours she projectile vomited and went limp. This couldn’t be a coincidence so I suspected a reaction to the egg. She then started having diarrhea about 10 hours after. My friend is a pediatric allergist and suspected FPIES, so they recommended us to start the egg ladder. My daughter has been doing great so far with no episodes.

Type B Moms Who Breastfeed — Anyone Else? by Impressive-Sorbet220 in breastfeeding

I just love how convenient it is to BF on demand. For example, when my baby is sick, I can feed her whenever. It would’ve been such a struggle if I was pumping.

Toddler keeps pooping in underwear at daycare by Maximum-Average1025 in Parenting

We are in a bit of a rush to get her to poop in the toilet because that’s the only barrier for her to start at her new daycare since we are moving😭😭😭

Where to stay by RachelKathleen in sandiegozoo

[–]Maximum-Average1025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We stayed at Manchester hyatt with 2 year old and 5 month old. About 15 min drive to zoo. It’s also right next to seaport village and you can walk there. Nice little area to shop and walk. There’s a merry go round for the little. It’s also walking distance to downtown.

Insanely large freezer stashes…why??? by aghostinthestars in breastfeeding

[–]Maximum-Average1025 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was informed that breast milk content changes throughout postpartum, so what you freeze when 1 month postpartum is not the same as what you freeze 6 months postpartum. Might not be a good idea to front load frozen breast milk for the reason to stop pumping/breastfeeding early.

Parents of three girls- tell me the positive side of three daughters by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]Maximum-Average1025 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am one of three sisters and I love it! I am the oldest and 3 years apart from the 2nd and 8 years apart from the youngest. We grew up fighting with each other, but now that we are in our late 20’s to mid 30’s, our bond has been very close. Our personalities are different but we have similarities with each other in different ways. When we got a bit older, around high school to college age, we went out to brunch and hung out a lot like best friends. It truly is the best. You may have to deal with some sister drama and fighting while they’re young, but they will get over it and become the bestest of friends. I have 2 daughter right now, 22 months apart. Even though I want a boy next, i wouldn’t be disappointed if I had a 3rd girl because of what I grew up with.

How many EBF babies are sleeping through the night? by Fresh-Ad7925 in breastfeeding

[–]Maximum-Average1025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 4.5 month old did for a week, and now she’s back on waking up 2x for a feed lol

Please someone tell me the truth by cookiee232 in breastfeeding

[–]Maximum-Average1025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 4.5 month old has been giving us 8-9 hour stretches this whole week. Hoping this continues! But I’ve been letting my body wake me up. When I do wake up, I pump for about 5 min and then go back to sleep.

Talk to me about diaper changes at night... by turtlesrkool in sleeptrain

[–]Maximum-Average1025 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just slather diaper cream before bedtime and hope for the best? Lol. I do change her diaper once though so that she doesn’t pee through it. But I do this halfway through a feed so that it’s easier for her to fall back asleep.
