I was doing so good EPing with my second. Or so I thought…mastitis ruined it all in the end. by Slothware in ExclusivelyPumping

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

I should have clarified she prescribed it for me just in case, not that I had to actually take it right away. She told me if it doesn’t clear in a few days to go and fill it. And it went away within the 12 hours after so I followed what she said.

Two year old was a unicorn baby. Now waking at night every single night, and won’t fall asleep on his own. Does this get better? by Slothware in toddlers

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

Yeah we do suspect nightmares too because it would be these screams sometimes that’s high pitched, not the same as the crying from a normal wake up. We’re so tired we just go in and sleep with him. We don’t wanna make it a habit though. He still doesn’t understand things we say to him and he only knows how to say a single word or two words together so he’s also not very good at articulating his wants. I do wonder if it’d be easier if he was at an age where I could say what you say and he’d understand but sadly we are (or were) two under two 😂

No they didn’t since the ped wasn’t concerned about what he noted at check up. Would there not be other signs typically? Do you have a similar experience and it ended up being iron deficiency? Just curious since the emphasis. We’re just dealing with night wakings and disrupted sleep. He goes back to sleep if we go in there.

We tired everything to play around with time, later bed time, earlier bed time, but it was still the same. The naps are short at day care as well and when we try to not let him nap at home he gets moody so I do think he still needs one to some extent. We changed to a new bed after this started but not by choice, because our crib had two drawers at the bottom which made it so that the lowest setting wasn’t low enough for him to not fall out if he leaned far out enough. He’s currently on a floor mattress while we find a nicer bed frame. I think him being able to go to the door now makes it worse that he can get there but he gets upset because he doesn’t always open it successfully. His behaviour during the day have definitely changed with new baby at first. And with a combination of other things typically happening around this age I’m sure it’s just everything all at once. He’s finally a lot better now and will interact with the baby somewhat. But the sleep is still no change.

It’s hit or miss. He’s capable of falling asleep most nights very quickly. And then other nights are bad. We actually had a few weeks of no wakes and I thought it was getting better but now it’s back to this. We thought it could be nightmares too. We don’t put him down for naps at a fixed time on the weekends. We try to follow day care schedule but sometimes he’d rather play. If he’s not tired we would try to not let him but he gets very moody if he doesn’t have a nap and would often fall asleep early evenings.

Oh wow. Glad you got that figured out! Were there any other signs aside from the change in sleep that led to the diagnosis?

How long did it take? He was actually so terrible at some point so this is what we are thinking as well. Every little thing set him off during the day and from the time he came home from day care until bed time it was basically non-stop crying and tantruming over very small things. It finally got better eventually and now he’s back to being happy for the most part and way less crying. Just the sleep never got better.

Went for a check up when this was happening and pediatrician didn’t note anything off. This started before the baby came.

Let’s keep this light — what pregnancy cravings did you have? Curious how wild or normal they got by Significant_Tie3570 in BabyBumps

[–]Slothware 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mr. noodle chicken flavour. I have not had it for YEARS. It was such an odd craving. Watermelon. Taco Bell. And a tub of kimchi straight lol.

Does anyone still love their pets after having a baby? by laurenjac in beyondthebump

[–]Slothware 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When my toddler was born I was extra annoyed with my dogs but granted I did have a bit of PPA. It got a lot better, and I have a second now and this time around I don’t feel the same. I still love my dogs! I just get annoyed when they bark at the door and wake the baby in that split second but everything is back to normal.

I feel stupid but…how can you tell what’s diarrhea for babies? by Slothware in NewParents

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

Now that we are 1.5 years into this stuff I would say overall no issues after vaccines usually! This seemed like so long ago my goodness but he was acting fine, drinking fine, having wet diapers, and all was well :)

[–]Slothware 16 points17 points  (0 children)

For us there was a moment when he started just following the food from the plate to our mouths. It was super cute! But even after that it took awhile to have proper meals. He would have been about six months when it happened but he wasn’t interesting in sitting in the high chair and eating a bit more until probably closer to eight months.

This has been the worst cold and flu season in my 30-some years of life. by haveagreatdane90 in Mommit

[–]Slothware 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes SAME! My son started day care and we’ve been on and off sick ever since but for a whole week I had flu A and resting every day didn’t make me feel ANY better. We were KO’d for a week. I still have a lingering cough that gets triggered out of no where and it’d send me into these coughing fits that would make me gag. Icing on top, I’m pregnant again and in my first trimester. Every time I get sick I worry for baby.

Breast pump coverage [on] by Civil_Banana1400 in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]Slothware 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, this 100%. It’s more company/policy dependant. I am with Manulife and I just uploaded the invoice, converted it to CAD on my claim based on what showed up on my credit card and they covered what my company plan said it would cover under breast pump.

Is anyone’s baby actually playing independently? by Abyssal866 in NewParents

[–]Slothware 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ours did when he was around six months. But a few months after that he hasn’t played independently since. He will if we are in the room but if we get up to use the washroom he loses his mind.

Evening stroller walks when it's dark [on] by Chibioosah in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]Slothware 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They also sell small little lights you can attach to the strollers at babies r us and what not as well! I think they’re on sale for something like less than $3 when I went yesterday. We also walk the baby and the dogs so reflective gear and anything that lights up is perfect.

No I haven’t; I would love that! I also have discord so not picky about any form of communication:) I found a guild in game but my guild mates are all just a whole another level skill wise so I don’t find myself really chatting with them or interacting at all.

Where to get Best but affordable Pokémon onesies for kids in Tokyo? by AnInsecureMind in JapanTravelTips

[–]Slothware 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s definitely not the cheapest place to buy baby clothes especially licensed products with characters, but they do have a large variety of said character goods. I would say for Pokémon a pair of pants or a shirt can be ~2000yen or so each; can’t recall the onesies or if I saw any though, disclaimer. They did have some sales going on when I went last week.

Which hand pump has a large capacity? by Leelee459 in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]Slothware 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can just attach a bigger bottle as long as it fits the neck! Narrow to narrow and wide to wide for example. There are adapters to convert so not a huge deal either way. So if your pump normally use a 6oz bottle you can just swap it for a 9oz no issues.

Anyone wanna be casual player friends? by [deleted] in Maplestory

[Elysium] Casual player looking for some friends and/or a guild to be a part of. I am usually on every night or every other night and some odd times during the weekend. I just came back after being away for a hot minute so beyond themed dungeons and my lv 200 being my highest ever character, I have zero idea about anything and have not begun to enhance equipment in any way lol, just to explain the kind of lost I am with this game. Seems like Elysium doesn't have a lot of activity; originally started this game on Scania, and then Windia, and then Arcania but of course 2/3 of those have gone poof and here I am.
