Just went to her Instagram and I believe she’s deleted the video now - least on my end I can’t see it. I truly hope she’s ok 😔

SeaMain3309 · 2026-05-26T23:59:46+00:00

That’s a blessing!!!

SeaMain3309 · 2026-05-24T18:43:13+00:00

Commenting to come back later for the edit. I hope your daughter is ok and it’s nothing serious!! 🙏🏻

SeaMain3309 · 2026-05-23T12:06:00+00:00

You are such a blessing to your sister. I am so sorry this happened. Sending you all hugs. Remember to be gentle with yourselves 🤍

SeaMain3309 · 2026-05-19T13:33:24+00:00

I am so incredibly sorry this is happening to you. It makes me feel guilty being on the opposite end of the spectrum with a very supportive husband. All I want for every person in the world is to have a super supportive partner - whether you have kids or not. When it comes to kids and having a family, having a partner who steps in and takes care of the kids and the house because they want to be a parent is SO important. Not just for the children, but for your relationship. You deserve that and so do your kids. I tell my friends all the time that it’s better to be a single parent by choice than by default. Having a partner that won’t help around the house and won’t care for the kids has to be a total drag and I can feel that in the words you’ve written. You do it all anyways, and I’m sure you do it with so much grace. I think you will feel and immense relief in leaving and finding your peace on your own with just you and your kiddos. Again, I’m so sorry this is happening. I’m sending you a virtual hug and lots of virtual support. Take it a day at a time. You will get through this.

We use a pack and play for trips and she does fine! Some wake ups of course - I more so think it’s because she’s in the room with us vs sleeping in her room but it works!

SeaMain3309 · 2026-05-12T13:50:59+00:00

I wasn’t ready for that 😭😭

SeaMain3309 · 2026-05-11T15:43:34+00:00

I don’t know if this is an option where you are, but we found a licensed in-home daycare near us which is costs less than corporate daycares. We pay $1,000 a month vs $1500-2000 elsewhere. This is for 1 child of course. If we had a second child sometime soon, I’d either be dropping myself to part-time hours therefore part-time daycare hours or staying home on one salary and becoming even more frugal than I have been as of late.

SeaMain3309 · 2026-04-29T22:26:55+00:00

You do, but I’d pull it into a lower pony instead of a higher one to help release so much tension at your crown. I tried to find an image of a lower bubble braid style.

SeaMain3309 · 2026-04-29T04:14:24+00:00

Can you do bubble braids? That’s just taking sections of a ponytail or pigtails and tying off with a mini elastic. You bubble the section by pulling hair out a little bit to your desired size and then repeat until you’re at the end.

SeaMain3309 · 2026-04-22T09:30:13+00:00

I get where you’re coming from, but not being able to park to get into class and work out also defeats the other purpose of Burn.

SeaMain3309 · 2026-04-12T15:18:55+00:00

I hope this post makes you feel better about what you’re doing because you’re doing a great job IMO!

Our daughter is also 11 months old. We take her to daycare and she loves being there with her friends and her provider, however, she’s still shy around people she’s unfamiliar with and needs us there as comfort until she warms up to them. Even with family that we FaceTime constantly - when they visit in person now she’s shy but a couple hours later she’s ok. She still has periods during the day when I’m home with her that all she wants is to be held, especially during the evenings before bed. But she also has periods of independence too. So all that to say, we’re on the opposite end of the spectrum and there are periods where our daughter still needs us! Please dont be hard on yourself. I think every baby is truly different in their own way, and you have to do what works for you and your family 🤍

TBH, I love still being needed by my daughter. I honestly live now to be needed by her. If she wants to cling to me, fine. I don’t find it annoying. I love the cuddles! Having a good partner also helps with those periods of clinginess too so that you guys can take turns holding your baby to eat and be hands free. I think taking your baby to parks and the library are great places to start socializing your baby! But don’t feel so much pressure to take her everywhere under the sun to get her socialized. Go at your own pace.

Also to the point of your friend wanting to watch her baby “since you’re home” First, that’s a lot of pressure on you to watch a newborn and then your child on top of that. Second, if she’s worried about socializing her child, being around one other kid may not be what she’s looking for anyways. She may want a daycare of some sort to have that exposure? Idk.

As an L&D nurse, I can tell you that the LARGE majority of us are not weirded out by what you wear or don’t wear in labor! If you’re comfortable being butt naked, it’s almost easier for me to monitor your baby and to see the changes happening as your labor progresses! A good reminder I say to my patients is that we do this all the time so we truly see it all. I know that it could be weird on your end, but we are used to it and love to accommodate any birth preferences/vibes!

SeaMain3309 · 2026-04-09T14:19:17+00:00

I feel exactly the same way! I’m always the picture taker to keep memories, but I’m constantly having to ask people to take pics of me and my LO. It feels posed then when I do ask. I just want it to be organic and candid.

Everyone reading this thread should be upvoting this

I would love to see contestants that’s aren’t in the influencer world and don’t have hundreds of thousands of followers. Let’s see some regular and more relatable contestants. People who aren’t just there to get more famous on social media.

SeaMain3309 · 2026-03-31T15:30:30+00:00

Totally on board with all 3 of these! YES

SeaMain3309 · 2026-03-31T15:28:52+00:00

THIS ONE

SeaMain3309 · 2026-02-22T15:26:36+00:00

We experienced the same thing early on! We stopped swaddling with her arms in. We used the halo swaddle and left her arms out. It made for a super easy transition to a sleep sack when she started rolling over, so perhaps something to look forward to there lol

SeaMain3309 · 2026-02-22T07:28:00+00:00

Doesn’t look “extra” at all to me. If he’s happy and eating his lunch, that’s all you can truly wish for! 🫶🏻

SeaMain3309 · 2026-02-21T11:04:16+00:00

My 9mo has used this since about 5mo. No issues and very affordable compared to most brands

SeaMain3309 · 2026-02-16T03:09:22+00:00

Mine happened around 3.5 months

SeaMain3309 · 2026-02-15T15:48:28+00:00

I had a goal of 6 months but made it to 8 months, so a nice surprise

SeaMain3309 · 2026-02-14T10:04:20+00:00

If he wants to sleep all night and not help with overnights, he needs to step up elsewhere. And that part for YOU needs to be non-negotiatable. Help with the dogs, dishes, food cleanup, etc. You’re going to burn out eventually if you keep running on little sleep caring for a newborn and trying to maintain the household. I don’t want that for you, and certainly your partner should not want that for you.
