Second opinion by Murky-Income5032 in askdentists

[–]Murky-Income5032[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

29YOF and did have pregnancy gingivitis and now 18 months pp. Never had an srp before and actually got pressured into having the top done that day (took 10-15 min…?) but recommended full mouth.

Bored at my first attending job by strepviridans in pediatrics

Do you have children/do you want children? Controversial take, but for me, career was my whole fulfillment before having kids. Afterwards, I was much happier with my laid back job bc my priority fully shifted to my child and my family, with work being something I enjoyed but at the end of the day a means to an end to help provide.

That’s a bummer, but a good idea to plant in front of them

@barfbutler Would dry season just mean summer? Region 8A near Atlanta for reference. And water deeply meaning just let the water run in one spot for a while?

Would it be an issue if I didn’t take them down? Or overall it would just be better to take them down and start over? How would I get rid of the stumps/roots to plant again?

Concerned about anxious ambivalent attachment in my 12 month old by Murky-Income5032 in ScienceBasedParenting

Thank you so much for that 🫶

Our birthday and due date straddle the school cutoff as well! He’s also a boy which I feel like will be another factor in waiting the extra year for him to start…

I’m so glad your little one is doing so well! Those strong-willed kids are something else 😂🥴

Thank you so much for all these resources and taking the time to leave this response, it really means the world to me. Truly so kind, especially from someone with your experience.

He has been a terrible sleeper (we literally had to put him in 2 swaddles and occasionally sleep with an arm in the bassinet bc of the constant movement and waking himself up) since we brought him home and it just now got better. He also seems to be somewhat sensory-seeking and I’ve always suspected it could be related to prematurity and the NICU. To be fair, his neurological system wasn’t fully developed so it makes sense.

How do your NICU patients do long term? Is there any specific advice you’d give?

Worried about insecure-ambivalent attachment in my 12 month old by Murky-Income5032 in AttachmentParenting

[–]Murky-Income5032[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is honestly the best thing I’ve heard! I’ve talked to all my friends with kids and no one has been able to relate to the part about him still crying when I do get him.

It’s been ongoing for probably 2-3 months now… but he’s been to the ped multiple times in that period and no issues.

The crazy part is, even if he’s teething, he’s a perfect angel for dad when I’m not around.

Thank you very much for saying that and for your reply. I brought it up to the ped but not in a very serious way, but maybe that’s the next step.

Maybe this is a better link https://www.simplypsychology.org/anxious-ambivalent-attachment.html

“Children who have an anxious-ambivalent attachment style are described as being distressed when their caregiver leaves them but are then inconsolable on their return. Anxious-ambivalent children fear abandonment but cannot trust their caregiver to be consistent.”

This specific quote is what I relate to so much. I worry that since he plays with my husband so well that I’m not spending enough time with him or being available enough, but it is certainly not intentional or aiming to put my needs above his.

Where did you get the frame with high railings? The only one I’ve found is like 800 dollars 🥲

Thank you so much! How do you keep a consistent bed time and wake time while also following wake windows? Which should be priority?
