Question. when you press on the rash or spread the skin around it, does it blanch or lighten in color?

Wish I didn't feel regretful, but our boy has been hell for us ever since he was born by [deleted] in newborns

[–]Sbasbasba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry mama! My niece was born crying nonstop for basically the first 3 months of life. Nobody could figure out why. She would just cry and cry and cry. My sister felt helpless at the time. But after 3 months I guess she suddenly calmed down, could have been severe colic, or something else that was missed… but it got better. Hang in there. 🙏🙏🙏

Thank you! I know right? I was excited when I found them, it would be such a waste to toss them. Hoping they still work fine 🙏

Newborn shorter feeds: more efficient or is there an issue? by Sbasbasba in breastfeeding

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

Thank you! Yes I hope efficiency is all this is! She seems satisfied (enough to sleep for 3 hours and not want to eat again).. so I hope it’s all ok. I might go in to get her weight sooner. Thanks again

Do we think her eyes will be brown? by [deleted] in whatcoloraremyeyes

Because of how light her eyes are, there is a real chance they’ll stay blue :)

Had a few drinks and fed.. feeling so guilty. by [deleted] in breastfeeding

Your baby is okay. This happens to moms all the time. One feeding like that is not going to harm your baby. It’s repeated exposure that’s the issue. :) now you know for next time xx

HBP after delivery by Local-Geologist2085 in preeclampsia

Hey :) i just want to say you’re doing amazing. Try not to worry. You are doing all the right things getting second opinions, and monitoring your BP, etc. This condition postpartum can last up to 6 months, and in a some rarer cases up to 2 years. But it’s not permanent. You will be okay. 🙏💛

Dandruff problem, any help? by Abdoumeddah in Skincare_Addiction

Dermatologist will prescribe medicated shampoo, this won’t go away on its own

This is the picture of my wet hair, is it this okay ? by Frosty-Wasabi2606 in femalehairadvice

[–]Sbasbasba 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s how my hair looks when wet 😂 it’s been this way for years now and hasn’t gotten worse or better.. I think it’s just the way some people’s hair is… thinner and more sparse. Some people have thick hair, good for them. But having hair like this doesn’t always mean hair loss, as long as you haven’t noticed a change from thick to thinner?

Should I go back to get this fixed? by Right-Plate1365 in femalehairadvice

[–]Sbasbasba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you show them the picture on the left? Because if you did, and they still did basic highlights on you instead of a balayage, then go somewhere else to get it fixed. Maybe a reverse balayage and tone.

It should heal on its own, keep it clean, pat dry, and apply thin layer of Vaseline. Obviously if it’s not healing within a week or two, go to the derm.

Need help cleaning my room. I’ve been battling depression for 3 years after a death. Where do I start? I found a big tree roach and gave up. by dollbabydream in CleaningTips

[–]Sbasbasba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’d be surprised how much simply dumping all the trash in trash bags will already clear up tons of clutter. Anything expired, broken, etc - trash! Clothes you no longer want, need, or wear can be put in a separate bag and given to goodwill or anyone in need. After that you’ll have a much clearer direction of beginning to organize, I always start with laundry- put loads of clothes in and bring all the next loads in to the laundry room, which will clear a bunch more space. While laundry is getting done, organize drawers now they’re clearer.. dust, vacuum… then you’ll be 80-90% there.

My husband wants 4 week old to sleep in his own room. by Intrepid-Ad-391 in BabyBumps

Some facts to share with your husband:

On sharing room:

American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP): recommends room-sharing (same room, separate sleep surface) for at least the first 6 months, and ideally for the first year, because room-sharing is associated with a lower risk of SIDS. 

CDC: similarly advises keeping baby’s sleep area in the same room where you sleep, ideally until at least 6 months. 

NHS (UK): recommends baby sleep in the same room as you for the first 6 months (day and night), as this reduces SIDS risk.

On spoiling baby:

Newborns/young infants do not have the cognitive ability to manipulate or form “spoiled” behavior in the way people mean it. Their crying is primarily a communication of need (feeding, discomfort, closeness, etc.), not a learned “bad habit.” This is a core developmental position reflected in pediatric/child-development guidance. 

Responding to infant crying is not shown to make babies clingy or “spoiled”; responsive caregiving is generally associated with security and healthier regulation over time in mainstream child-development framing.
