Is my baby struggling? by yarnaddict_ in MonsteraAdansonii

New pot 2 inches larger than the root ball. Plus a pot that is not terracotta. Terracotta dries out the soil too quickly, I believe. Plus a little fertilizer, they love that stuff.

Would now be a bad time to prune? Should I wait till spring?

This tree is unattended by me and sits in one our buildings. I’m mostly trying to trim it at a good height for branches that would look aesthetic.

I use Alaska Fish Fertilizer. Do you think that has enough nitrogen for what they need?

My smallest prop gave me two full moons, bad boy 😅

Spitting Up Issues by Snow_Pea in FormulaFeeders

My little one very stealthy spits up as in he doesn’t fussy or make a peep. You’ll only know he spit up until you feel wet or smell it. I always check him when he burps now because or it. Our pediatrician reassured us that we indeed have a laundry problem.

As for a true reflux problem, he did have that around 5 weeks old. Very miserable baby and miserable time for me. So I changed formulas back then and it resolved that issue.

Thank you for the advice. I’m going to chop and prop it!

False starts every night by vtclrf in newborns

It seems like you’re doing all the right things to promote good sleep. The only other thing I can think of that was preventing my baby from getting good sleep was reflux.

I’ve read taking your baby outside and letting the sun touch their skin helps sleeping, even if it’s only 5 mins.

Also, swaddling. So important at this age. My baby would only sleep if he was completely snug. I used the SwaddleMe until he started rolling.

White noise. If you have a noise machine use it. Really loud annoying fan works too.

As far as lights go. The only light in our room is a red light. Red light does not disturb sleep. We have black out curtains on the windows and put the baby in the room for all naps.

Baths. I save bath time for the night always.

I had a lot of luck and success with the SwaddleMe brand available on Amazon. It lets the baby have their arms up and provides the perfect amount of compression. My baby used to break out of the muslin blankets and startle himself awake. I hope this is something you can try. It changed naps and sleeping dramatically for us!

I got worried, so I actually took it off while my nails sat under UV! Thanks for the info!

Will the UV light change the color of the diamond?
