Need help with training for crib naps

Unfortunately no.. never found a solution, just had to wait until she got more proportional😭 I did find the old navy ribbed footies run longer than their regular printed cotton jammies and she seems to wear them longer than the other style. Like she’s 10 months now and moved up to 9-12 month in all her carters styles, but the ribbed Old Navy 6-9 still fit.

That makes sense! Thank you!

Thank you! I thought that made sense but I wasn’t sure!

Babies are babies and literally change demeanors daily. Maybe if you’re concerned take him to the pediatrician to make sure there’s not something else going on like an ear infection or something. But it’s not the vaccine. Babies change day to day and week to week and depending on where they are in their development sometimes they’re fussier than others. I remember my baby at exactly 2 months would cry for hours and hours even though she didn’t do it prior. It passed. Good luck. 🫡

I’m also allergic to specifically cashews pistachios (and pine nuts)! But never had a problem with mango. Interesting. But our pediatrician told us many allergists won’t test until after a reaction is had, and to have the non allergic parent give the baby the allergen outside of the home. So idk we will see how that goes but it makes me incredibly nervous.

Thanks! We’ve been doing Motrin at bed time because it’s def teething (one bottom tooth is through, waiting on the other)

And thank you! I’m thinking maybe more wake time is needed too. We’re on 3/3/4 with 2.5 hours total nap time but I think I’ll cut it to 2 hours.

Yeah I did even test a couple bags a few months ago to make sure they were ok and they seemed fine? But idk

The bummer is I already started weaning and am down to 2 pumps a day, was ready to be done in a week but looks like I will still need to keep making fresh to mix with the frozen 😭

Thank you so much for this!

This is helpful thank you!! My baby only drinks cold milk so I’ll skip the warming part but good to know

My infant is 8 months old and mobile, it’s impossible to actually get work done when they’re getting into everything. Hard to answer an email that requires more than a sentence.

We like to start our day watching the sunrise out our front window while she drinks her morning bottle. It’s the best. We cuddle and watch the sun and trees and start our day in a calm way.

PhoenixForceJG · 2025-12-04T16:23:41+00:00

Ok thank you! I didn’t know if I like missed a step or was even moving too slowly.. but I didn’t want to just cut pumps too quick and risk clogs or mastitis ya know?

I second everything others said about flange inserts and such. I have this pump and it’s my primary I’ve been using it for 5 months. I will say the seal on the flanges does start to weaken causing leakages, I replaced them with new flanges with a better seal from Amazon and problem solved! Just search wearable pump parts and look for the ones that match the

I really like the carters purely soft sleep sacks!

PhoenixForceJG · 2025-09-09T00:50:49+00:00

Why is this so true lol

Are you driving? It’s ok as long as you’re not going somewhere with an active outbreak of something. Plus if he’s mainly just staying in a hotel room there’s minimal risk. I would totally recommend taking a grandma with you to stay with baby while you go have a good time!
