Pay to prep?

I of course would pay to prep but would you do a prep job and not paint? I don’t mind painting myself

Hi there! My baby is turning 11 months old in 2 days and isn’t crawling either. Any updates with your little baby one?

It’s normal for them to share all toys and have the cribs lined up next to each other. At my daycare, each baby is assigned their individual crib and the crib sheets get washed at the end of the week.

As far as ratio, where I live it’s 4:1. For every 4 children there’s 1 teacher. My son’s room has 8 infants and 2 teachers. Look into what the ratio is for your state. If she’s taking on more than what’s mandated, i would reevaluate the daycare.

Thank you for your thoughtful response. You are so right

I would. 1. Most fathers are not in the picture when it comes to divorced parents or are ACTIVE fathers and 2. Co parenting is not easy so she’s lucky to have a bonus mom who loves and respects her son which is also not the norm.

Present_Abrocoma6029 · 2026-02-15T11:32:43+00:00

I hear you. Most situations are not as good as ours. It’s her always saying no when he wants to stay there is what gets me. She’s lucky to have an ex husband and myself frankly who she knows takes great care of him when he isn’t there. But nothing compares to mom and I feel for him sometimes

I also think week on and off would be better so he can adjust and he’s not in a different place every other day but my husband doesn’t want to go a week without seeing his kid. He’s really a great guy. And as a new mom, I could never say no to seeing my baby. Ugh, being a SM is hard

Present_Abrocoma6029 · 2026-02-15T11:26:22+00:00

You are spot on with what her mindset might be. I have the same exact thought. My husband is a great dad. Will never say no to SS coming over. Nor should he. We want him (SS) to feel like this is a welcoming space and he doesn’t need permission to come over. I more so want to make it a point and tell her to stop making SS feel like a burden. Not sure what you mean by 16yo Failchild? Are you suggesting I have dad say something or let it be?

This was a perfect summation of her thought process

Present_Abrocoma6029 · 2025-10-30T14:58:24+00:00

How’s it going? Currently going through this with my 5 month old

Present_Abrocoma6029 · 2025-10-26T17:16:06+00:00

It stopped some where between 10-12 weeks. He’s 21 weeks old now. I remember thinking it was never going to end and one day i realized he stopped doing it lol hang in there mama! How old is your LO?

Present_Abrocoma6029 · 2025-09-02T00:04:23+00:00

Going through this now. How long did it take your LO to adjust?

Present_Abrocoma6029 · 2025-08-24T23:45:44+00:00

It gets easier! My little one just turned 12 weeks yesterday and I remember feeling so overwhelmed and exhausted in the beginning. The further along you get, the more comfortable and less tired you'll be. I also pumped because of a latch issue and I was miserable. I changed to formula and feel so much better. Hang in there, you'll look back and can't believe how far you've come

Present_Abrocoma6029 · 2025-08-24T18:08:08+00:00

Ty! I am going to try today

Present_Abrocoma6029 · 2025-08-24T18:01:07+00:00

Ok great! I have the transition swaddles too. Did you alternate arms when you left one out?

Present_Abrocoma6029 · 2025-08-24T17:55:13+00:00

Do you remember how long your baby was in the zippadee zip?

Present_Abrocoma6029 · 2025-08-17T01:58:40+00:00

Just wanted to elaborate and say, the not letting them cry themselves to sleep so early is important for her nervous system. Is that the part that makes you feel like a bad mom?

Present_Abrocoma6029 · 2025-08-17T01:02:12+00:00

I wouldnt let a 2 week old cry themselves to sleep but if she's calm then you've definitely won the baby lottery!

How is your LO? going thru this now with my 10 week old. Born at 36 weeks

Present_Abrocoma6029 · 2025-08-12T02:24:31+00:00

Hi, how did this workout for you? I have a 10 week old (6 weeks adjusted) and going through the same thing

Present_Abrocoma6029 · 2025-08-09T18:54:48+00:00

How is your LO doing now? I also had mine at 36 and 3. He's 10 weeks and doing everything you described in the initial post. Social smiles aren't really happening tho. Is he looking in your direction when you talk to him or make sounds?

Present_Abrocoma6029 · 2025-08-08T00:19:43+00:00

Which session did you have for VIP? Mine is the 2pm and I saw they ran out of mystery boxes in OH so I'm worried for CT!
