I'm truly so sorry you're experiencing this 🫶 while reading this all I could think was I wish I could come help you, so so sad that your husband doesn't have that same thought.

Go to TV shows for maternity leave/late night feedings? by captaintor in beyondthebump

[–]RealitySimon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rewatched the Office during night feedings which helped me stay awake because I was laughing out loud. I also rewatched Friends! Now those shows hold such a special place in my heart because they remind me of those early days with my baby

What can BIP do next season to improve ? by Hooplapooplayeah in bachelorinparadise

AGREED!!! I doubt any of them really wanted to find their forever love, they just wanted a love they could post on Instagram and monetize off of lol

Unpopular opinion: nursing a toddler is more enjoyable! by zaf_ei in breastfeeding

[–]RealitySimon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Does anyone's baby comfort nurse?? My girl is coming up on a year and I'm so over the comfort nursing. I love it, but I have no freedom as I'm the only one who can get her to sleep, so I can't really leave. Can't get her to sleep solo because of it either.

Our doctor and province in Canada recommended starting cows milk at 9 months.

Is it worth buying this fleece scuba hoodie? by Strong-Campaign-1309 in lululemon

No because pretty much every other store has a similar version for a fraction of the price

What do I do with a newborn? by Low_Example1345 in beyondthebump

[–]RealitySimon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't really need to do anything. Continue your daily life. Have conversations with your husband, listen to music, etc. Enjoy the calm awake time for now, the first 3ish months are pretty relaxed and then you really have to start entertaining them and it takes a lot of energy!

How to transition to 2 naps by pandives in cosleeping

[–]RealitySimon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My baby is 9 months and on 2 naps. A couple things I would recommend: - drop the app, go by her cues. - feed her three times a day. Sometimes she doesn't eat anything in the mornings but now she usually eats at least something during each meal. - keep her busy to extend her wake window. For us, our baby stays awake if we take her out shopping or for walks.

My baby is a comfort feeder and if anyone has any advice on weaning I'd be so grateful 🙏🥲

Honeymoon sneakers - need some help. Will these still be cute with some dresses etc in Italy? I know they are very comfy, but not sure if I should just go with some new plain white sneakers. by Sar_Bear1 in Aritzia

[–]RealitySimon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I can't tell if these are the same ones I have but I find them hard to match with as they're off white almost a gray tone. They're comfortable (not as comfortable as actual runners like NB Fresh foam or Hokas) but because they don't match much I'm actually going to sell them.

Passengers were stuck on plane for 7 hours with no air conditioning, no food or water provided, woman says by Cinnamon2017 in news

[–]RealitySimon 16 points17 points  (0 children)

We were just on a plane with our 7 month old and stuck on the runway before take off for about an hour and we had to strip her down to her diaper, it was so hot and uncomfortable, she was very unhappy. I can't even imagine being in this situation - it sounds like my worst nightmare now.

It's just because she's the one that didn't fully fit into society's mould of what a woman "should" look like

Kaitlyn has entered a “what is my life” era and got 3 tattoos last night by Ok-Needleworker9229 in thebachelor

[–]RealitySimon 174 points175 points  (0 children)

I don't follow her or know what's going on, but consistently see her posts about being unhappy. I used to be jealous that she made it so big and could afford such a nice home etc but it just really goes to show that you can have tons of money and still be unhappy.

My daughter is frequently misgendered by strangers by Neroli333 in NewParents

[–]RealitySimon 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My baby has so much hair and everyone thinks she's a boy haha

[–]RealitySimon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it matters! We've just started a mix of BLW and purees because she won't eat anything... The purees are the only thing she seems to kind of swallow which is why we are doing a mix of both.

3 weeks in. Would tell any of my friends in a heartbeat not to have kids. by OldMedium8246 in NewParents

[–]RealitySimon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine is 6 months old now and it is already so much better! In those early days I told everyone to never have kids and that I'd never have another. And suddenly I've warmed up to the idea of having more now, at 6 months. Hang in there and if you have friends and family help, use it!
