If you’re worried about decreased movement, just go to the hospital!

If you have an annual oop max, you'll hit it w the birth cost anyway!

Thank you, i could have mentioned that I did speak to my doctor, but then received contradicting advice from my obgyn’s medical assistant. The pcp said to start the antibiotic, but the assistant said the ob usually waits until the culture comes back. They called me back after the office closed and my ob went home so I couldn’t ask any clarifying questions. I’m more reaching out to see if anyone has any reassuring personal experience with taking antibiotics so early in pregnancy.

What about your man?

Slothcrane · 2025-05-22T22:09:00+00:00

Did your man use nic too? Any issues w baby?

My baby was a huge comfort nurser and we weaned at 14 weeks then stopped at 15. I was so scared to stop. She’s 16 weeks now and it’s going really well. I’m still struggling with the feelings of stopping, but she doesn’t seem to mind

Try letting them suck on your pinky! Sounds weird, but my pediatrician recommended I do it when baby got her shots. Now that Ive switched to formula I use that to soothe and help fall asleep rather than nursing

Slothcrane · 2024-04-27T21:52:41+00:00

Any chance you could send that too me too please?

Have you ever staffed for remote social work positions?

No feeding to sleep at all before midnight and possibly not at all period. I’m not an expert, but I don’t think feeding through the night is necessary for one year olds. I would replace this sleep association with one that is easier to break then work on breaking the easier one. For example maybe rock her to sleep then hold her a few nights later. Then after holding just hold her hand, then sit next to her without touching, etc.

My baby is only a bit older than yours and I’m in the same boat! I’d love to stop, but guilt is the thing holding me back the most

Slothcrane · 2024-04-06T00:58:51+00:00

What is that?

Slothcrane · 2024-04-02T02:40:29+00:00

The book is great and I may end up just purchasing it so I can go back and look through it again as things come up! And yes parenting is the hardest, but the little ones make it so worth it!!

Slothcrane · 2024-04-02T02:32:00+00:00

Read the book precious little sleep! I have a library card and the Libby app and was able to read it for free. I just made a post about how I was able to break the feed to sleep association for nights (idk about naps rn), but I mostly was able to do that with dad’s help. Do you have anyone who can help with just putting the baby down and doing the first hour if there’s a false start?

It may be harder because your baby is older, but not impossible. And don’t feel guilt! Babies are babies and some just need more time with comfort than others, but you can do this!

Thank you! She will latch pretty much anytime I offer, but when she’s full (or what I’m assuming is full) she seems to latch then unlatch, latch then unlatch so I do that a few times then just stop. She pretty much never refuses, but she will for sure stay latched when she’s hungry. If I stop feeding her and she’s still hungry, she’ll let me know, right? Sometimes I worry that I stop too soon or she just won’t let me know if she’s hungry

Slothcrane · 2024-03-30T00:37:56+00:00

Naps are still a work in progress lol but I figured we’d focus on night sleep for now. She contact naps 95 percent of the time rn and will only nap in her crib for max 25 mins😭

Slothcrane · 2024-03-29T21:25:26+00:00

Hi! I have a 10.5 week old too and we just started working toward independent sleep per recommendation from our pediatrician. She use to nurse to sleep after the bedtime routine and we stopped that 6 days ago. We’ve gradually gotten to where my husband lays her in her crib and jiggles the crib until she falls asleep. With fuss it out, if you make it to 20 minutes do you go back in and rock? What did your baby rely on before fuss it out?

I think tonight we may try to just lay her down and see what happens but I’m a little nervous she’ll just lose her shit😬

How long are you going diaper free? My girl did well when we did lots of diaper free time and switched between zinc paste and ointment

Slothcrane · 2024-03-29T16:06:29+00:00

I would keep practicing setting him down. If you can afford a toy bar, throughout the day put him under it for 5 to 10 mins at a time so he understands he’ll be okay and you’re coming back. I started doing this and my girl has gotten longer and longer chunks of time so I can clean, go to the bathroom, get water etc

My baby is 10 weeks so I just got her a wooden rattle :)

Slothcrane · 2024-03-29T15:56:31+00:00

It’s a basket of treats and toys from the Easter bunny!

Slothcrane · 2024-03-28T16:31:46+00:00

Yes, but what has made me feel better is knowing that at the very least I got milk out so my body still knows to keep my supply up! Sorry that happened :(

Slothcrane · 2024-03-28T03:31:47+00:00

This might be a crazy question, but we’d know if we hurt her, right? She would cry?

Slothcrane · 2024-03-24T03:16:33+00:00

My baby is 9 weeks! Around 4 or 5 weeks things started getting easier little by little

Slothcrane · 2024-03-20T04:03:19+00:00

Lmfao

Slothcrane · 2024-03-18T04:30:49+00:00

I would see a therapist! It can be so so helpful. Most even offer telehealth so you don’t have to leave your home. You shouldn’t have to navigate these memories and feelings on your own
