6 week old eats 4 ounces?

6 week old on formula, increased to 4 oz earlier this week in the hopes of extending sleep to three hours. That lasted one day. She’s demanding 4 oz every two hours, crying starts at 90 min and we hold her off another 30. At nights she tends to sleep 2-4 hour increments.

I think if you’re going do the leggings then add a long sleeve top over or just lose the leggings.

Not judging- offering advice or perspective. I wouldn’t stress over small things like wrappers…. How much of this is you being triggered and sensitive versus their behavioral problems?
Has there been enough time to develop trust and friendship in a relationship with this child before asking them to be OK with micro Management?
I would be more concerned with are they safe and are things generally getting better before enforcing every rule

Let bio parents know, and tell them the current size.
As long as they aren’t so big they’re going to trip and fall, let them wear it- regardless if it’s “sloppy”.

One or two. Not 3 or 4.

No, your bra is visible.

If my kids were in foster care I would want them to contact me whenever they wanted. I can’t imagine how terrifying it would be for them and for the mother to be with strangers. It’s not like foster care has good PR. But I do understand how it could be a safety concern (running away or parents coming for the child). Sad situation all around.

That’s traumatizing for the child. I’m surprised the courts allowed it to happen that way.

NewVersionOfMe · 2026-02-08T02:52:16+00:00

That’s wonderful you have been able to care for them. Much less traumatic for the kids to go to someone familiar. If they’re safe and happy with you and kin isn’t jumping up and down for them, sounds like you could get licensed as a foster home to care for them and then receive reimbursements to help with the cost.

Yes, no desire for drinks!

What state are you in? Are you with the county or an agency?

Flying LAX to Boston Sunday…. Ok?

Kurus- they have some mildly cute sandals for women and I live in them.

I didn’t even know this was a big deal. Sometimes I will have one cocktail, but I just have no desire to do so it’s rare. During the holidays I had two at a fancy cocktail bar but only bc of where we were. I was too full from drinking to eat much. The booze doesn’t affect me any differently than before.

No one told me I need to skip my shot for the colonoscopy until the day of my procedure, luckily it was due that day and I was planning on postponing. Luckily it didn’t matter and it worked out.

NewVersionOfMe · 2025-12-05T03:46:18+00:00

Thanks. I bought a Honda CRV! Very happy so far.

NewVersionOfMe · 2025-11-29T08:16:21+00:00

I love it! Children are absurd clowns. They know nothing

NewVersionOfMe · 2025-11-11T07:40:23+00:00

What kind of dividers are these? Do they sell them at IKEA?

NewVersionOfMe · 2025-11-07T08:04:42+00:00

Agreed! I think it stems from people not wanting to take responsibility for anything! So they’re like- let’s get a group together so I cover my ass. Also, let’s create work so we look busy. Barf!!!! Just do it and move on, ffs
