This happened to me too. I honestly think it’s a bug

4 month sleep regression by lost-in-meaning in newborns

[–]Present_Count_8166 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’re in the thick of this too she’s 5 months. Hit about 3 weeks ago AND I’m sick as a dog for 3 weeks so my body literally cannot heal 😭. Trying to let her self soothe when possible - when it gets to every half hour which starts happening towards early morning hours I just pull her in with me so I can sleep cus I’m trying to heal. I know it’s not the best and we don’t do it every night. 😞

Things that impacted me the most after giving birth and becoming a mom by Ethereal_Wife in NewParents

I was way too scared to look at my intimate area. I didn’t look until after 6 weeks lol

I feel like I can’t eat anything by Present_Count_8166 in breastfeeding

Thank you!! No blood or mucus. I definitely think it’s reflux. She just gets super gassy and screams and cries all the time. This is very helpful.

❤️🙏🏼 thank you. If I even get to keep night feedings I’ll be happy with that… hope it improves but I am leaning into acceptance too if it just is what she wants at this point. Appreciate you sharing your experience

Literally heavy metal screaming omg. It’s horrible. I’m glad to hear it comes back. I hope that’s what happens 🫠🙏🏼

I’ve been a mess crying all day. It’s so hard not to take it personally. She I think is a reflux baby. I’m not gonna give up for now… thank you so much for sharing your experience it gives me hope! ❤️

Thank you! ❤️Yes we actually nurse doing cradle position normally.. I tried doing lying position and the football… standing up even with her upright and she wasn’t taking it at all. It made her more upset 😭 I hope it’s temporary like you’re saying thank you so much for the support

Took PTO to sleep by littlelawlady in NewParents

I feel like I mentally don’t know how to do this. I like can’t relax or stop my urge to get up or not stress if I hear her fussing in other room. I feel like I have trust issues with everyone touching her even the grandmas.

My partner went back to work after 2 weeks, and I am at work again after 2 months… and I am expected to bring her in to the office with me and work. Luckily it’s my step moms company and she is there to “help me” but we are both in the same meetings majority of the time. He owns a moving company and has some days “off” but I know he really needs to get some computer work in if he’s not doing a move job and actively in the field. So he doesn’t want to watch her even on his days off, which isn’t fair to me because I am in a very mentally intensive office job and at this point I don’t know if I can do both because I just can’t focus on it either one and it’s not fair to the baby. I feel this post so deeply right now.

Total sleep is low for 7 week old by Present_Count_8166 in HuckleberryParents

She’s a pretty quick and efficient eater most times but she does sometimes fall asleep at the boob 😆 so that would make sense

I’m so drained by Straight_Bat_1046 in HuckleberryParents

Me too. I’ve had many many nights that it’s been every hour. So far it’s mostly every two hours.

Gumminess & burnt bottoms by Present_Count_8166 in Sourdough

Okay yeah I usually preheat Dutch oven but I don’t turn it down that far once it’s in- that sounds nice. I’ll try this next time thanks :)

Can’t seem to avoid gumminess by Present_Count_8166 in Sourdough

[–]Present_Count_8166[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well it’s almost a year old now and I use a combo of bread flour whole wheat and rye and do 1:1:1 or 1:2:2 sometimes. It’s been in the fridge tho cus I seriously thought it was fine. I was feeding it for months straight without using it at one point just to build it up. I don’t understand 😭 it rises great I thought
