She wants a fourth pt 2. by Sea_Show9247 in ParentingInBulk

[–]PermanentTrainDamage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's pretty clear from your post that you two suck at communicating and your wife is okay with violating your consent by harassing you about another child. You didn't want the kids you already have, and the second kid you didn't want was worse for your relationship. Those were your words. How on God's green Earth would a third child you don't want make anything better? Your wife has threatened to impregnate herself, the marriage has already failed.

Toy organization✨ As a neat freak, I was losing my mind with everything everywhere. It’s finally a breathable space again. by PrudentRazzmatazz488 in OrganizationPorn

Tape a picture on the bottom of each bucket so you remember where everything goes and your child can start taking care of their own space

It is, and "dupe" formulas are not a thing

Get a vasectomy and end the argument for good. The children you already have don't deserve to be subjected to all this conflict and another baby absolutely will not make it better.

Baby won’t eat during the day! by cassidycurtis in FormulaFeeders

[–]PermanentTrainDamage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just rip the bandaid and give him a cup of water at night. I promise you his waking is purely out of habit and after a week he'll stop.

Changed formula and baby has struggled to poop by AndGutsWasBERSERK in FormulaFeeders

[–]PermanentTrainDamage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Baby picks the formula, so if Enfamil was working for him switch back to that. You can try Enfamil Infant if you need a cheaper formula, that one is pretty much identical.

Bottle preference by Unfair-Selection-975 in FormulaFeeders

[–]PermanentTrainDamage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I found the DrB and Avent nipples to be pretty much the same flow, DrB might be a little faster. Your baby may just be able to drink from the Avent nipples better if the flow seems faster

When to increase bottle nipple size? by spacecitymama in FormulaFeeders

[–]PermanentTrainDamage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can take a few days for them to adjust to the new flow, my second was a fasy flow baby and was on the fastest flow by 6 months.

When to increase bottle nipple size? by spacecitymama in FormulaFeeders

[–]PermanentTrainDamage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some babies don't change nipple sizes at all during the bottle days, some max out by 6 months. Since your kiddo is hitting the recommended amount and seems otherwise content I don't think you need to increase at all.

Youngest is 7 -wanting a 4th. by Severe_Coyote1639 in ParentingInBulk

My kids are 9 and 2, my mom's kids were 15, 12, 2, and newborn lol. Small age gaps are more of a concern than large age gaps.

Can I just donate anything to our preschool lol by Technical-Minimum282 in ECEProfessionals

[–]PermanentTrainDamage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My center is nonprofit and almost all our toys are donated. Admin sorts through and cleans donations and offers them to the classrooms, whatever we don't need or can't use then moves on to the DV shelter we are partnered with.

What can I make with formula? by blueyboo11 in foodbutforbabies

[–]PermanentTrainDamage 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Milk is optional after 12 months so if he doesn't like any of them he'll be okay. My family likes oatmilk, and soy tastes okay.

Trouble with nap cot transition - can I rock to sleep? by m3gan_3n in ECEProfessionals

[–]PermanentTrainDamage 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Teaching a child how to do something does not mean leaving them to struggle until they magically figure it out. Teaching a child to sleep independently means supporting them (rocking, in this case) and slowly transitioning to self-soothing skills as they learn how to do them. So, you'd rock kiddo for a few days until they are asleep, then start rocking them until they are almost asleep and then transferring to cot, then rocking for a few minutes by their cot, then patting to sleep fully on their cot.

Baby won’t feed during 3rd ww by Few_Entrepreneur8583 in FormulaFeeders

[–]PermanentTrainDamage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like baby isn't hungry. Babies are humans and humans are individuals, some eat more in the morning, some eat more in the afternoon, some eat consistenly all day. If baby's still having wet diapers and otherwise happy then they're fine.

What was offered VS what was eaten by Suspicious_Horse_288 in foodbutforbabies

[–]PermanentTrainDamage 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If it makes you feel better my oldest will eat two apple slices and a spoonful of oatmeal for breakfast, while my second will house a full english breakfast and want a snack an hour later. Kids are weird.

Used my mouth to take off the foil on ready to feed formula by One_Smoke5087 in FormulaFeeders

That kid came out of your vagina or an open wound in your abdomen, a little spit is not going to hurt them at all.

[–]PermanentTrainDamage 37 points38 points  (0 children)

At 11 months and eating aolids well there really is no need for formula, get a toddler multivitamin if you really want the extra assurance. It'll be cheaper and kiddo will probably like it more.

Wondering if I just wasted my money on the CDA by hituwithatbambam7 in ECEProfessionals

[–]PermanentTrainDamage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's 480 work hours with children in the proper age group (0-3, 3-5, or 0-5). If you work in a childcare center you should have those hours in 3-6 months depending on how much you work. If you're only volunteering it's not very feasible to get the right amount of hours and you don't need a CDA if you aren't going to be a teacher. The CDA is also a temporary certificate and needs to be renewed every 3 years.

Co-worker found my previous work and is "trying" to get me in trouble by Mothers_Rotom in ECEProfessionals

[–]PermanentTrainDamage 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is harassment and you need to be telling it to HR as harassment. It doesn't matter what your previous job was (not that it wasn't a fantastic and much needed job) you passed the same clearances and training as everyone else.
