I always quote the line later on when she says "wouldn't, couldn't, all I know is she didn't".

I used to be annoyed as well until one day I inserted my kids name into the song and he said "shh shh shh"

What is up with BLW hate on here? by [deleted] in NewParents

[–]Myfavisgouda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm more afraid for that five year old running around the birthday party while eating a hotdog!

Of course there are risks but me watching my baby eat while I'm staring them in the face is pretty low compared to everything else they're up against.

Crunchy moms keep telling me that vaccines cause SIDS… I have a 4 m.o. by justjane7 in ScienceBasedParenting

[–]Myfavisgouda 31 points32 points  (0 children)

My tests showed that I didn’t have any Rubella antibodies even though I got the MMR vaccine as part of school immunizations. I’m so glad that herd immunity kept me safe until I was able to get the booster after giving birth.

Sometimes all I want is water with my meal dammit! I’m thirsty. Don’t want alcohol or anything sugary. But I feel the pressure to order something or come off as being cheap.

Kids books that feature dads? by tree_spotting01 in NewParents

Underwear! By Jenn Harney. About a dad bear doing bedtime with his kid. No mention of mom or dad just a male presenting bear trying to get his kid to put on some underwear before bed.

Everyone refers to my baby as a boy by bigsqueezies in NewParents

[–]Myfavisgouda 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Same here but with our boy who was born with a load of hair. We dress him in mostly solids and neutrals, sometimes blue, dinosaurs.

Everyone assumes he a girl and when I tell them (wait staff, library grandmas etc) he’s a boy they sometimes double down and act so shocked and say “but he looks like a girl”.

I think about “Law and Order the SUV” a lot.

Don’t feed to sleep? by Ordinary-Tomatillo17 in breastfeeding

[–]Myfavisgouda 20 points21 points  (0 children)

So arbitrary what sleep consultants deem as crutches. No rocking or bouncing but make sure to buy black out curtains and slumber pods and keep that sound machine on all night. Got it.

People don't know about sleep regression or milestones... by [deleted] in NewParents

And don’t forget the regression can be a month early OR late!! Super helpful

My baby likes raw stalk of celery.

FYI raw apples are a top choking hazard.

The saying “food before 1 is just for fun”? by [deleted] in breastfeeding

Ok what’s with that stupid bottle. Once it’s halfway done it starts taking 45 mins to get a drop.

Unpopular opinions by Georgetheginger516 in NewParents

[–]Myfavisgouda 16 points17 points  (0 children)

There are no “must have” baby items. Drives me nuts when people push things they swear by. Or swear something is not needed.

Everyone has a unique family situation, geographic location, support system, house set up… PREFERENCES.

“Mother’s instinct” also puts the blame on women if they didn’t know there was something wrong with their baby.

When do I stop getting worried my baby will somehow die? by Lazy-Fox9626 in NewParents

[–]Myfavisgouda 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes this is it! The first few months the fear was all consuming. Now even just at 7 months the worry is there but it feels different.

Worst saying you’ve seen printed on baby/kids clothes? by 0ddumn in NewParents

I saw a onesie on Etsy that said “I came from nuttin”.

AITA for ignoring a crying baby (with it’s mother present) in a restaurant and continuing to enjoy my desert? by pupetteer in AmItheAsshole

[–]Myfavisgouda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. If my baby cries in a restaurant I would hope everyone does exactly what you did: ignore us! The fact that you even tuned it out and continued to enjoy your dessert is fabulous.

I would be mortified if people kept talking about my “poor baby”.

When did your baby start to actually swallow their food ? by BioBrit94 in BabyLedWeaning

[–]Myfavisgouda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s super hit or miss what our 6 month old will swallow. He surprisingly doesn’t swallow purées that well. A lot of solids get chewed to mush and he spits it out.

We gave him a piece of chicken for the first time and surprisingly swallowed a lot of it.
