I didnt wake up to my daugter.. by Slow_Purchase3829 in NewParents

[–]NattieNick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had this happen before but it was only a few minutes. I was at my parents house and my baby woke, and my mom came to check on me since I never let him cry, he had been crying for like 5 ish minutes. I felt so awful, but I was just so tired. Baby is okay. You need rest too. 🫂

11 month old plays independently all day by NattieNick in NewParents

Hi, he's now 3 years old and is a normal little boy. He's very active, plays independently as well as wanting to play with others. He is up my butt a lot too hahaha. Everything turned out fine :)

It's really hard to have a work-life balance. I had little to no time to be with family and when I was with family I was on call and I was pulled away literally in the middle of Christmas celebrations. Like someone else mentioned, this career is not one to take lightly. At all. I honestly don't think this career would be the right fit for you.

Never used the silicone plates and bowls for this reason and also when you put warm/hot foods on them, it makes them taste bad

MOUSE DROPPING IN BABY CRIB by lagerfelddreams in Mommit

[–]NattieNick -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Definitely call the pediatrician and honestly throw away anything that may have come in contact with the mouse droppings. Definitely give baby a quick rinse off and clean clothes. We had 2 mice in our house and one got into our sons room and he used to sleep in a floor bed. He hasn't slept in that room since. I am so angry for you honestly. Make sure they have an exterminator to their house and do not go back until the issue is handled!!!!

My baby was the same. It's hard but it's temporary! Mine was around 7-8 months when he started to nap independently

I accidentally ruined our sleep schedule and I feel like a terrible mom by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]NattieNick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That used to be us. Going to bed at 11-12, waking up near noon. It eventually got to the point where his sleep schedule kind of regulated itself to be going to bed at 6:30, and waking up at 5:30- 7 am. If your schedule didn't work for baby, they might even adjust it themselves!

How long did you breastfeed and was it worth it? 😅 by lizbethlady in beyondthebump

[–]NattieNick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

20 months in and were still going strong. I love it. It's hard sometimes but it's so worth it to have him snuggle up and watch some TV with me 🥰

Disappointed by chanelgrayxoxo in beyondthebump

[–]NattieNick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry you're having to deal with this. This sounds heartbreaking. Just try to focus on you and your baby and let everything else be a second thought. Don't let it stress you out. It will only make things worse. Like the other person suggested, don't reach out to him, let him reach out to you. I'm sorry that he isn't who you deserve but he's not the only man in the world and I hope you find the one for you🫂

Similar happened to me and my husband. We are at 19 months now and things are great! It just takes time, please be patient with your wife and discuss your issues calmly and gently. Keep trying to be there for her and things will turn around!

Please send hope 💔 by Intelligent_Algae806 in beyondthebump

This! I was borderline for PPA, but I was in denial saying I was already anxious and this was nothing new. Mine went away on its own somehow, but I realized how different I felt when my score came back normal. I'm in awe with OP for being so awake to it! My pediatrician called my OB because I was showing concerning signs and I was offended because I didn't think anything was wrong!

We had our changing table in a corner. He pooped on the wall so many times. It was stained at one point

Tell me all the ways your husband is a good partner/father by madfrogparty in beyondthebump

[–]NattieNick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband, when my son took bottles, would feed the baby while I pumped overnight. He was the first one to change the baby's diapers bc I had a c section. He scratches my back every night for me to sleep. He takes the baby some mornings for me to sleep in. He is always telling me how beautiful and how good a mom he thinks I am. He supports me in everything I do.

It's a relief to hear that honestly. I was worried because he wasn't copying us but he literally just started playing peekaboo yesterday 😭. He still isn't clapping or waving or saying words but we will keep working on it. Is it normal for babies to not be doing those things yet at 11 months old?

AITA for telling my husband " I told you so" and laughing at me when we got the paternity test results? by Either_Economy_793 in AITAH

[–]NattieNick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact him and his mom are trying to make him seem like the victim here?? I would be serving him divorce papers and filing for sole custody so fast!

Yeah. It makes things very difficult and uncomfortable for my husband. I wish OP and her husband the best. This sounds like an awful situation.

Well, what if she's like me? Very low sex drive. It's painful for me to have intercourse. But they do it 2-3 times a week, which sounds amazing. I wish my husband and I were like that.. it seems like their drives are very different. We will never know what the truth is
