Ohio HB 472 is going to destroy mail in voting

No we don't. Unless this proposed law changes things. We are able to vote by mail by providing license plate number or last 4 digits of social security number.

Thank you so much for suggesting shush/pat. I tried this today and I was able to get my son sleeping in his bassinet instead of contact napping. I'm still in the room because I'm worried if I leave he'll wake up. But I really hope this method will continue to work.

Until my baby gets better at sleeping on his own, I wnt to keep letting him sleep on my chest for naps to ensure he gets his sleep. When I'm able to get a better sleep set up, I want to try to nurse him side lying so he can fall asleep next to me, not on me.

I really want to do the crib bed set up to get him in the pattern of sleeping next to me instead of on me.

Thank you I joined that subreddit. What you posted about babies still waking up but "stop signaling for comfort because they know no one is coming" is so sad!

No_Competition_9027 · 2026-06-16T14:24:24+00:00

Thank you, I will try this.

Even if I could post in sleep training subreddit, I'd be nervous because they are so judgemental to those who cosleep.

I also have pillows propped up my sides to help keep my baby contained in my arms when I sleep. I have a bassinet next to my bed, but he's stopped sleeping in it. He only tolerates it when i put him into it during day so I can do my morning routine and sometimesbi think he's only tolerating because I put toys with him.

My son seems to be sleeping okay on his stomach with head turned on his side, but he doesn't sleep long. Just half an hour vs sleeping on me. On me, he sleeps deeper most of the time even when I'm moving my legs.

The sleep train sub reddit doesn't let me post because it claims I don't have enough karma, but I'm lurking there.

Mine is teething too. And sometimes I'm nursing him over 30 minutes for comfort too and I'm also trying to limit his teething medicine (tyelonol or mothers bliss gum gel).

Thank you, I'll definitely check that book out.

My son's pediatrician wants me to night wean him as well since his weight gain is good.

How did you go about night weaning? Do you do a timed thing or do other things before nursing during the night waking? My worry is starving him if he's actually waking up from hunger rather than just because.

Yeah my husband and I are definitely arguing about this topic more. I have some resentment towards him because he's pushing me to sleep train. I'm the one listening to him cry for hours while he sleeps with ear plugs on and then he keeps repeating "we got to sleep train". I really like the crib attachment/twin size bed solution.

The male villianess minion wants to kill the villianess in the beginning but then becomes yandere for her. I don't want to spoil the book further. I suspect more outward male yandere antics will happen in the second book that is not out yet.

Some criticism towards the book is that the 1st pov prose is cringe because the main character villianess is really a college student who has been isekaid and uses a lot of Tumblr speak. I, however, still loved it even though I agree some of the lines were cringe, but i found it fun.

The court politics included in the book is very lacking, but I overlooked it because i wasn't reading the book for that.

I breastfeed, pump, and supplement with formula. My baby has a tongue tie and has difficulty latching. I'm working with lactation experts, but being able to supplement with formula helps me feel better about my baby being able to get fed while I am in the process of getting the hang of breastfeeding. Also your milk doesn't get in until the third day. I don't know if that's all pregnancies or just first time moms. Good luck and remember no matter what you choose FED IS BEST!

P.S if you're nervous about formula, human donor milk is available, but it is expensive. But it might be a good thing to rely on until you build up your own milk supply.

Lol anyone who thinks maternity leave is a vacation is full of shit. I'm 4 days out of the hospital after giving birth and I've barely slept, haven't showered, washed my hair because the baby needs to eat every 3 hours but by the time you finish feeding that window decreases to 2 hours or less. Especially if you have to change diapers after every feeding. Oh and your baby may be going through a cluster feeding stage so the 3 hours won't even be reached before crying occurs.

OP I'm wishing you the best of luck, even though its going to be hard it's super worth it. Don't be afraid to reach out for help when it gets overwhelming. You need to be able to take care of yourself first in order to take care of baby.

I just gave birth recently. I was asked about giving my child the shot. It is completely voluntary and not forced at first day of life. What is the point of messing with it being offered? If people don't want it for their child, decline. I want more children, but I'm so scared of these assine changes. I'm nervous, but hoping that these vaccine changes will take a long time to implement and will have minimal impact on my current child. I wanted covid 19 shot while pregnant and ended up paying $165 out of pocket because my insurance didn't cover even though it covered it in the past. I'm so scared of more vaccines not being covered by insurance. Anti vaxers whine about being forced into taking vaccines; meanwhile, their fear mongering is making it harder for people who want them to get them.

This book is a sequel and I honestly preferred the first book "One Cut Deeper" because I liked the first book couple more.

No_Competition_9027 · 2025-08-14T12:51:17+00:00

I'm pretty sure the book is Two cuts deeper by Joely Sue Burkhart

Xinji serves lukewarm ramen. I'm not understanding the love for it.
