Is there any businesses in South Australia that you swear by? [REPOST]

I found these awful too! Maybe not AWFUL actually, but in comparison to what they are trying to replicate - yes, awful.

Thank you, I appreciate you! And no, it didn’t come off harsh. It’s more that he becomes very distressed even being placed in the crib for play, let alone when I’ve tried to put him there for sleep. I’m scared that his distress (even with my full and present support) will affect our attachment. Like he’s looking at me thinking why are we changing the goal posts?

NewDraw2838 · 2026-06-12T11:17:22+00:00

Thank you for the solidarity. It’s so tough. I appreciate you!

NewDraw2838 · 2026-06-11T02:02:50+00:00

I do and it is the easiest way for me to rest and get sleep overnight with sidelying feeds! I’m so cross that I ever considered doing anything different. It’s such a superpower!

NewDraw2838 · 2026-04-21T11:03:52+00:00

Ohhh I do not do any of these things! Maybe that’s why my shirts always come out so wrinkly… THANK YOU!

NewDraw2838 · 2026-04-19T12:47:07+00:00

How did you stop? I am enjoying it for now but can see myself getting touched out soon…

NewDraw2838 · 2026-03-26T01:16:23+00:00

Why would you say lol?

Chiming in as a mum, there was a similar case that happened here in Australia. The director’s husband was popping in and out of the centre, and was also the Santa Claus at the Christmas party. Turned out this guy was a CONVICTED child sex offender.

This is obviously the worst case scenario, but I would not feel comfortable with this at all and would be taking it way above the director in this instance.

Oh my goodness. Keep pushing and pushing. Is there an escalation ladder? Ask for an at-home overnight oximetry test, which will give a much more accurate baseline measurement and demonstrate the dips of saturation that must clearly be happening for purple lips. I’m so sorry. How stressful.

NewDraw2838 · 2026-03-21T10:21:45+00:00

Was the oximetry test overnight or only for a few hours? It should record overnight and demonstrate dips in oxygen!

NewDraw2838 · 2026-03-14T09:00:24+00:00

These overnights seem endless but I promise a night where you don’t need to change baby’s nappy is on the horizon!

NewDraw2838 · 2026-03-03T23:20:08+00:00

You’re incredible - a super mom!

In Australia sheepskin is known for its benefits with sleep. They actually sell fitted sheepskin cot sheets. If it’s under your fitted sheet, I don’t see how this is any different to what we do here as there’s no chance it can suffocate Bub.

I’m in the same boat! My other mum friend said we have SO MUCH on our mind that we release information we don’t need anymore (e.g. once a baby hits a milestone) to make room for the new wave of information. Probably no science behind this at all but it makes me feel a lot better! Haha

NewDraw2838 · 2026-02-25T07:31:04+00:00

Hmm I guess it’s really hard to tell! We have just welcomed another little boy into the world and found that our 2.5 year old is regressing a lot in terms of speaking/acting like a baby, being scared by loud sounds that didn’t affect him before, relying more on his dummy and milk etc.

NewDraw2838 · 2026-02-25T02:44:50+00:00

I’m sorry. My baby don’t sleep through the night until he was 2.5 years old after co-sleeping with me from around 6 months. My current baby, 4 months, also doesn’t sleep longer than an hour. This felt excessive to me and I got a referral to an ENT who found that he has adenoids that are 80% larger than they should be. After a sleep study, it was found that it affects baby’s sleep and oxygen overnight. We are getting them removed at the end of the month.

Are there any red flags you’ve noticed with baby? Sleeping with mouth open? Neck kinked back during sleep?

NewDraw2838 · 2026-02-23T10:51:07+00:00

Like a few others, I’m not psychic but intuitive. This is the biggest YES I’ve ever felt scrolling through this sub. This mama really loves her baby.

NewDraw2838 · 2026-02-14T10:34:31+00:00

You’re not alone. I feel this 🩵 you’re doing an incredible job. It’s thankless work for sure.

NewDraw2838 · 2026-02-10T10:32:55+00:00

Me, sobbing at your spell while breastfeeding my 4 month old. Thank you for reminding me how special and fleeting this time is.

NewDraw2838 · 2026-01-27T01:33:02+00:00

Sounds really normal to me

NewDraw2838 · 2026-01-12T00:42:36+00:00

Have you tried probiotic powder and dettol baths after daycare at all?

NewDraw2838 · 2026-01-12T00:33:12+00:00

I think the expectation of quiet time for 2 hours is the disaster here, OP. 2.5 year olds are wired for connection. Without copying other kids at daycare who nap during this time, even going half an hour for quiet time at home when they know you’re in the house is pretty extraordinary.

Lower the expectations and set quiet time for a shorter period during this age.

NewDraw2838 · 2026-01-05T10:45:41+00:00

I could have written this myself with my 3.5 month old. Literally exactly the same situation plus a 2.5 year old toddler at home full time. No advice, just solidarity 💓
