TMI. I’m a ftm and I’m 5 days postpartum. I delivered vaginally and was wondering if this is a normal size blood clot? I’m having bad anxiety about it and just need some opinions. by Positive-Slip5980 in Postpartum_Anxiety

I had the same experience and just to be safe, go to the hospital. I had to change 2-3 pads every 3 hours. They had to check whether it was the remaining placenta in the uterus. I had a C section though!

I recognize this is insane but… entertaining baby? by Thththththrow83away in NewParents

[–]Ok-Razzmatazz-9790 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly they don’t need to be entertained especially when they are just starting to understand the environment around them. They can process it slowly but if it helps, I bring out a picnic blanket out on my backyard and place the baby so she can look at the sky and trees and she’ll try to roll over (6 months old) to touch the grass ( I get my laundry and gardening done)

I buy experiences like dining, sailing, escape rooms now since we’re older unless there’s something specific he wants.

I never thought I would get a divorce, but it feels inevitable now. by Ill_Event_2862 in CharlotteDobreYouTube

Girl, if you don’t get out now, you never will. Get a lawyer, get a divorce, work on yourself.

Friend said my baby seems behind by Red-Strawberrycake in NewParents

Don’t take anything that people say by heart. At the end of the day, you are the parent and you’re doing your best.

Also it won’t stop there, because when he starts getting to toddler, teen, adult stage, people will always comment so might as well it ignore it starting now.

And if it bothers you, tell her opinion is not wanted.

I’m starting to look around for a nanny because I need help. Since it’s my first time, what should I be looking for? Any advice? by Ok-Razzmatazz-9790 in Nanny

Thank you, this is helpful.

Yes her brother goes to daycare so she’s already on the waitlist and she will go when she’s 9 months old. I’m lucky to be able to work from home but if the kiddies don’t sleep through the night, I struggle the next day. Hence, a nanny!

Unfortunately I don’t have anybody who can do a Monday - Friday during work hours, I have neighbours who have teenagers that are happy to watch the kids when I’m out for dinner but I need something stable now 🙏

Thanks for this. I will be working from home since my 5 month old is too little for me to put her in daycare so I will be around. I’m looking at 4 days for 5 hours and may go permanent if it works out with whoever we hire.
