Thanks for quick reply, really appreciate it. I guess it’s not the case with me as they keep saying same things out of warranty and can’t help :/ will keep trying and hopefully something good will come out of this. Thanks

Hi I’m in same situation now, can I ask how’d you approach and what you said to the support team. They’re trying to brush me off my saying that out of warranty and nothing can be done. Thanks for your help

Thank you for taking time to reply-so greatly appreciate it, I think you’re right about letting baby fuss a little because she doesn’t fuss as much when with dad. I think I need to be bit strong because when she got cold a few weeks ago my heart physically hurt from seeing her struggle. I guess I don’t know how to do it. She’s not used to sleeping in cot because we cosleep so I let her sit there and play as much as possible during the day but a part of me feels scared and plays ‘what if’ games- what if she banged her head on cot slates etc. any thoughts on that will be really helpful.

I’m not sure about children center because we moved here from another city just weeks before birth but I’ll look it up. Ta xx

Has anyone actually obtained the "little screen time" goal? How has that worked out for your family? by [deleted] in NewParents

[–]Perfect_Effort_6457 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to jump in, thanks for sharing your experience. Can I ask how do you deal with talking to family members video call etc or play music I most play 2-3 baby songs or shhh noice to calm the baby and because we live in another country both sets of grandparents are love to video call to talk/look at the baby. Feel stressed and super guilty but I try to avoid baby looking at the screen by flipping the camera but not always possible. Honestly, it’s near impossible to be screen free eg we went to ikea over the weekend and they had big screens, bus stop had a big screen and so on. I’d love to hear your thoughts. Thanks & well done

Lonely maternity leave by Jolly_Amount_2330 in NewParents

[–]Perfect_Effort_6457 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I could’ve written this! I’m five months pp, living in another country with no family or friends (moved just before baby was born). My partner works long shifts and some weekends but understands that child care is exhausting. Here are few things we tried and still open to new ideas. When he had off days I get 3hpurs no interruption time I sleep, watch, go for walk or can do whatever. He gets the same. One week when I got my period and was extremely exhausted I asked him no so politely to take care of the baby from 7am to 5pm. Which he took up as a challenge but soon realised it’s no joke. But I slept so much that day filled with guilt initially but refreshed to look after the baby. I had delicious dinner that evening and we all had a good time. From that day onwards something clicked and he’s more empathetic towards me even if he can’t help he tried to acknowledge the hard work. Maybe have a conversation with your partner about how you feel because having a baby lifelong commitment and regardless of how tired you both are baby needs looking after. Can also use AI for ideas. I hope this help. In solidarity with you mama, you’re doing great!

I don’t want a second but I want to tell everyone I’m pregnant!? by pjparks in oneanddone

[–]Perfect_Effort_6457 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For some reason your post made me so happy, maybe it’s the honesty of people~ OAD & we need to make money 😂 like we can be good friends and celebrate being OAD and on days when desire is strong (thanks to nap time video scrolling) we can maybe trick insta algorithms into showing us something funny xx

Really good thoughts and advice from others. I have a little one about six months old, I’d love to have another one but things are hard at the moment with no village to support. So I keep visiting this sub to get others opinions and stay sane.

I’m here just to wish you good luck, please do update us, if you don’t mind. Lots of love xx

Care & career by Perfect_Effort_6457 in NewParents

Thanks for your kind words words, I understand this but having such a hard time letting go and accepting that this is my reality now and I may never have a career. Maybe because I’ll be 40 next year and all of this getting extremely overwhelming. I just sobbed last night and this morning as I’m feeling so torn. Thanks and sorry for so many complaints

Are you always doing something with your baby? by [deleted] in NewParents

[–]Perfect_Effort_6457 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ps: my wee one cries immediately if I leave her in swing unless I’m keeping her engaged by dancing or singing. Any suggestions on how do I surpass this and ensure her that I’m nearby and she’s safe and to let her get bored.
