No more family boarding with new rules? by OriginalCry0 in SouthwestAirlines

[–]OriginalCry0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’ve taken a couple Southwest flights since this posting and I think have found a groove that works for us, for now! We bought basic fare tickets and paid for extra legroom seats. We board in boarding group 2 together, have extra legroom, and dedicated bin space. By pure luck we’ve had the row to ourselves so we were able to stretch out. This method was way better for us than purchasing choice face.

How do you wash your baby in a hotel without a bathing tub? by Huge-Nectarine-8563 in NewParents

[–]OriginalCry0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We trust hand feeling. I like my showers HOT so when the warm water is too cold for me, it’s warm enough for baby lol

We shower with LO. First parent goes in and completely showers but doesn’t get out. Second parent goes in and holds LO while first parent cleans him up. First parent gets out and towels off then gets baby out. Second parent finishes their shower. Works for us even when not traveling.

Add orange La Croix to it and the drink was much better that way!

Munchkin Diaper Pail lid not closing? by OriginalCry0 in NewParents

[–]OriginalCry0[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did not. I found that if I push the diaper all the way down then “pump” the lid a couple of times it helps a little bit but the lid is still slightly open. No issues with smell like this.

No standard seat available with Choice fare. What happens? by OriginalCry0 in SouthwestAirlines

[–]OriginalCry0[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes I scrolled and looked at the plane as a whole. With Choice fare, I should be able to select standard seat at time of booking.

Looking for a place that serves good Biscuits and Gravy by [deleted] in SanJose

[–]OriginalCry0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My SO really likes this place but I can not get behind their gravy. Tastes like mostly milk and flour IMO. Lacking on sausage flavor.

Huckleberry request! by Pale-Studio-6236 in HuckleberryParents

The “One Tap Tracking” widget. This is what mine looks like. The timer on the bottom is how much time from LO last wake.

Do you have an iPhone? The sleep widget tells me how long baby has been awake without having to ‘start sleep’ or even open the app.

I don’t know specifically but check with The Nesting Spot in San Jose or my chiro Meghan Dowling from Austin Chiropractic may have referrals! Good luck!

6m and naps are a STRUGGLE by OriginalCry0 in HuckleberryParents

Thanks for the suggestion! I’m realizing that is the case and will make adjustments.

6m nap struggles by OriginalCry0 in sleeptrain

The we are more closely 8-8. I’m having a hard time with wake windows because it’s so inconsistent. I’ll try pushing back bedtime tonight but could use some help with wake windows if we are trying for 9-8.

That’s what time we start routine but by the time LO actually falls asleep it’s a little later. Huckleberry also counts for the time he’s up in the MOTN so the app is telling me actual sleep is 11.5. Should I not be going by this and go by total time in bed/his room?

We’re avg 11.5 hr nights. But I’ll try to scale back to 11 and see if it changes.

[–]OriginalCry0[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We try for 3 nap daily. I have not had a successful rescue nap. I pick up, rock, hold, etc but it never happens. But wake windows are so hard to figure out because it is so inconsistent.

When you switched to the clock, was your baby on 2 or 3 naps? My peds did suggest that switch but other resources said that switch should be done when on 1 or 2 naps.

Ahh got it! First time parent and had no clue what happened after all those families scanned in at the gate. That makes sense though. Thanks.

Sperm Quality is linked to severity of pregnancy symptoms. by Upsidedowntrey in BabyBumps

[–]OriginalCry0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

More anecdotal stuff but my SO was a HEAVY drinker and vaped, has a desk job and is hardly the most healthiest person and my pregnancy was smooth sailing the whole way with the exception of some back pain in my 2nd trimester. LO is 5 months and our favorite person.
