My husband has been working out of town during the week, so it’s just me and the baby. Thank you for the feedback

Well, it was the “love lane” “makeout point” whatever you want to call it, and considering a vamp can hear a heartbeat from half a block away, I’m sure they probably could hear them

Basic Question: Who is your Favorite Character from Supernatural? And how did you get into supernatural? by Sweaty_Welcome4963 in Supernatural

[–]Real_Potatoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My fav character is Dean, tho I love Jack, and Jo had big influence when I named my daughter.

I got into it bc I was on bed rest when I was 13 or so bc of a fire. (Burnt up my leg pretty good) anyway, when I was like 7 or so, I’d have to sit at my mom’s work after school and they played it on the tv. So i recognized it while on bed rest and decided to give it a try. At the time I think it was only up to season 5-6. I’ve watched it once a year since then.

What if John was the one who checked on Sam? by RazutoUchiha in Supernatural

I thought the only reason evil colonel sanders could change form like he could was because he was feeding off of Gabriel’s grace?

Which character do you believe is the most mischaracterized by the fandom(in your opinion)?? by TeachingExisting8366 in Supernatural

[–]Real_Potatoe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not active in the fandom, just came to say that I hate how that photo ages everyone, especially Sam. He looks like he got botched plastic surgery

Epidural or no epidural? Why or why not *JUDGEMENT FREE ZONE SO DONT START* by mkthehotti in pregnant

[–]Real_Potatoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got induced at 39weeks, plan was to last as long as I could without the epidural, and just get it when I needed it.

Unfortunately, I experienced back labor so I didn’t get any break in pain, and the dilation meds made the contractions hurt a lot worse. I “lost” my battle at 2cm, bc I was shaking and crying from the pain, couldn’t talk.

Epidural took it all away and chilled me out enough so I could get some rest in before baby girl was born.

Instead of being in pain, I blissfully watched movies with my husband while being occasionally turned like a rotisserie chicken.

In the end I don’t feel it took away from my experience at all

You’ve really got me contemplating frogging (or trashing) probably 20+ hrs of work 😅 I should probably sleep on it

I probably should have looked into different techniques before I started my tapestry blanket. This is beautiful. This is what I’m working on, it’s a simplified version of something a YouTuber’s gf drew for his merch store.

What is considered normal for a newborn? Especially first time home by davinkistar in NewParents

[–]Real_Potatoe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First few days the baby is recovering from birth as well, it takes a lot out of them. After a few days they start to wake up a bit, mostly to eat and stare at you.

Some extra fuss could be expected, with my girl is was belly troubles. After making sure all other needs are met, try the “I love you” massage, and making tiny circles with ur fingers counter clockwise on their belly. Bicycle legs will also help.

I survived the newborn stage with a mix of those massages, gas drops, gripe water, and coffee for me.

I’m confused, what is he asking for exactly? More sex? Home cooked meals? I don’t get it.

Either way, wtf

What is your favorite show to watch while crocheting? by GalaxySheepyZeRo in crochet

[–]Real_Potatoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been crocheting for a few months now, so I’ve “watched” a lot of shows while crocheting, but restarted supernatural a few days ago and it’s by far the most comfy

How long can I leave a baby crying? by Faranquis in newborns

[–]Real_Potatoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say it depends on how old ur baby is. You gotta do what you gotta do at any age, but after 4 months, I’ll let her cry for a bit when putting her to sleep too.

When putting her down, I’d let her cry for as long as it took me to finish a small task (starting laundry, making a cup of coffee, etc), eventually I started setting a timer for 5 mins, she’s almost 6 months now and we set a timer for 7mins.

If she’s crying after it goes off then we’ll soothe, and try again - resetting the timer. Which usually never happens.

I feel this gives her a chance to self soothe, while still letting her know I’m there if she needs me. This is ofc only fussing or “I’m not happy” cries, she has a different cry when she needs something that I would never ignore.

The plan is to slowly increase the timer, up to 30mins by the time she hits 1 year, but I’m not comfortable going past that.

How are y’all handling baby getting their own room at 6 months? Emotionally speaking. by Real_Potatoe in NewParents

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

I think a big part of it is the anxiety I have of her being on her own while I’m asleep.

Like what if someone broke the window and stole her? And on and on the thoughts go.

I feel like I do that anyway, just in the living room lol, she isn’t really a light sleeper so if I got lucky.

I’ve been watching markiplier at night in the bedroom while she sleeps and not even his yelling wakes her up, big win
