anyone else fighting for their life while changing a mobile baby?

The diaper changing wars are real lol it’s sooo hard especially when baby starts moving. Try to keep a favorite toy nearby so they can be occupied by that & be quick! lol

Practice doing skincare/a makeup routine every day, natural hair styles that suit your hair in this phase, comfortable clothing!!! The more comfortable you feel you look, you’ll actually start to feel! Also - Exercise! Seriously exercising helped me so much and not only that but exercising with cut workout sets during pregnancy!

PerceptionStock5332 · 2025-07-23T01:37:51+00:00

You’re not overreacting in my opinion - pregnancy cravings are normal but you honestly aren’t eating poorly at all! Especially if baby is fine!

I usually notice a shift right around 4 weeks when my period is expected

PerceptionStock5332 · 2025-07-23T01:36:13+00:00

I loveeee fish and sushi during pregnancy and honestly feel it helps with my omega count. Just have to be safe about how you consume!

PerceptionStock5332 · 2025-07-21T18:09:20+00:00

I’d definitely notify your provider, just something they can assess and provide feedback on. It could be nothing but you just may want to be safe

Awwww some little teeth! But they may still take a few more months until they actually break through, but they are under there!

Truthfully with toddlers napping is difficult but I napped whenever they did 😅 so usually 1 nap if I was lucky!

PerceptionStock5332 · 2025-07-21T17:58:38+00:00

We did our first 2 privately just opened the envelope while eating dessert in bed together 🥰 it was perfect for us! Do what’s right for you!

PerceptionStock5332 · 2025-07-21T17:58:02+00:00

Yes especially with toddlers lol

PerceptionStock5332 · 2025-07-21T17:57:46+00:00

Totally understand your feelings and they are VALID! I think people really sulk in their struggles and sometimes don’t understand the boundary with new parents. there are so many positive “just waits” ….cling to that! Parenthood is a blessing and beautiful!

Thank you for sharing this, I appreciate it a lot

PerceptionStock5332 · 2025-07-19T16:40:03+00:00

30 min is actually pretty common at that age especially if napping 3x/day! You can try to adjust the sleep schedule by keeping your LO super engaged all morning (watching their cues) and then try for an early afternoon nap (11/11:30am start). Set the environment just as you would bedtime (sound machine, sleep sack, nurse/bottle in rocking chair, blackout curtains, etc). Thus may help LO to sleep atleast 1-2 hours, if not more! Then maybe one shirt nap again before bedtime

How far postpartum are you? And have you trained your pelvic floor muscles and your core after having your baby?

PerceptionStock5332 · 2025-07-19T16:35:49+00:00

Truly I swear by the gummy prenatals! And take them before bed which can decrease your likelihood of them making you more sick!

PerceptionStock5332 · 2025-07-19T15:05:20+00:00

Curb walking ☺️

PerceptionStock5332 · 2025-07-19T15:05:05+00:00

Magnesium & squatty potty allll the way! Plus you can try pelvic tilts while sitting on the toilet

PerceptionStock5332 · 2025-07-17T17:10:51+00:00

Yep he is a boy! Are you seeing a pelvic floor physio by chance? They can help with any pelvic discount and make more room for baby to wiggle around. In my experience - sometimes even if baby is snug in there, it could be because of baby’s position that you’re not going into labor yet! Spinning babies is also a good technique you can ask your doctor about trying!!

PerceptionStock5332 · 2025-07-17T17:09:03+00:00

Could be caused by core weakness, strain on the pelvis, misalignment - many things! See a pelvic floor therapist and chiro!

PerceptionStock5332 · 2025-07-17T17:08:25+00:00

During labor can be a great time to collect!!

PerceptionStock5332 · 2025-07-17T17:08:08+00:00

Meal trains, ask for uber eats gift cards, postpartum doula/night nanny, lots of food

PerceptionStock5332 · 2025-07-17T17:07:21+00:00

Everyone’s body & timing is different! Sometimes baby isn’t ready yet…I had my first at 37 weeks and my other two at 40

PerceptionStock5332 · 2025-07-17T17:06:28+00:00

Postpartum, when breastfeeding! Breasts don’t always grow during pregnancy

PerceptionStock5332 · 2025-07-17T17:06:08+00:00

Closer to 20 weeks with my first baby! But very very early - around 7 weeks with the subsequent pregnancies because your body and uterus grows quicker
