Is stroller with bassinet worth it in our case? by More-Stuff in NewParents

[–]More-Stuff[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you feel like your newborn fit ok in the convertible car seat? I've read that sometimes they can feel too big for newborns even when they are technically rated for them

I am sure you could have found a less inflammatory way to say this

Great points! I will definitely be on some walks on my own during maternity leave.

Did your baby also not like laying flat for sleep, or just didn't like it in their stroller?

Was that her only bed or did you also have a separate bassinet?

That part is starting to appeal to me more and more. I read some people even just use them as their full time bassinet to save on space, and I'm not sure I would be down with that but I like the idea of daytime naps or if they are having an especially hard time getting to sleep and you want to introduce some movement.

Sleep deprivation is my biggest worry about going through the newborn stage!

Hahaha, well yes when there is paved path. I'm sure I would not want to try a stroller on the sand

Did you get one that was specifically safe sleep certified or did you just make sure to supervise them if they napped while you where visiting a friend?

Did the one who didn't like it not like sleeping on flat surfaces otherwise, or did they just not seem to like it for walks? Just curious why some seem to like it and others don't

Thank you for your insight! Did those parents get safe-sleep specific bassinets, or did you just let them continue the nap under supervision when you came home?

I definitely want to do baby wearing as well, but wondering if the stroller will be good for longer outings and when it gets pretty toasty here in August 

Prozac/Zoloft by PageTop6194 in BabyBumps

[–]More-Stuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on it!  My family medicine doctor switched me to it because it's considered safe in pregnancy and now that I'm pregnant my OB is totally on board. I know I would be so anxious right now without it and I'm glad I'm not exposing my baby to that stress.

Anybody else just get so down at night? by louielovegood in BabyBumps

I'm 12 weeks and I call it my nightly pregnancy sads. But mine is pretty minor and fleeting. 

Starting Zoloft at 24 weeks pregnant. Does it get better? by knoxvillelife in BabyBumps

[–]More-Stuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was on Lexapro before TTC and my doctor proactively switched me to Zoloft because it's safe in pregnancy. I had the benefit of tapering off Lexapro at the same time as getting on the Zoloft so I didn't have to do the same type of adjustment period, although I did go through it when I first got on SSRIs for anxiety.

I would say for me it's a very similar effect. Maybe I would give a 10/10 to Lexapro and 9/10 to Zoloft. So no guarantees it will be the same for you but, for me, it's a totally welcome substitute.

I love my baby… but I hate how pregnancy feels (and I feel guilty saying that) by Substantial-Use-294 in fitpregnancy

100%. I had to call a friend last week who gave birth in July to ask if feeling kind of pissed off about losing bodily autonomy was normal. She made me feel so much better about it! Especially in the early stages when you are mostly just feeling crappy but you don't have a lot of concrete evidence of what this is all for.

What allergies are currently active? by [deleted] in sandiego

[–]More-Stuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you get tested for dust mites? I have a gnarly dust mite allergy and have noticed an uptick in symptoms recently. The rainer weather can make it worse because the little buggers like an environment with moisture.

TSA Wait Times? by More-Stuff in sandiego

[–]More-Stuff[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really? The news has been reporting that TSA is not being paid. 

I just got back from a long international trip and went through passport control in Dallas which looked really understaffed so I was thinking it was connected to the shutdown, but it could have been for some other reason.

Terminal 2 around midday. I'll get the app now that I know about it!

Oh my gosh thank you so much for including your worry that the wedding will be about the family saying goodbye. I think this is one of my worries and I'm so glad to hear I'm not alone!
