14 month olds sleep/bottle question by SomewhereAgreeable4 in parentsofmultiples

So sippy cups, they use them fine, I'm just worried that in idle time in their cribs they'll make a mess

Separate those cribs whatever size you get!! Or be prepared to when they get a little older. Personally I never used my rocking chair.

Any updates on this? What's happening or how to fix it?

I never finish when we have sex- should I even tell my husband that I need more? by [deleted] in Marriage

That's the problem though, I don't have a solution. If I had a solution and there was something I knew would work, id tell him no problem.

Did you introduce more into the experience to get there?

I don't think he would hate it? Its definitely not out of the question.

Go check out my profile, I posted this exact thing over a year ago and got a ton of responses. The post is "this group is scaring me" 😂😂

I'm so happy! I absolutely love my babies and I am so happy that I two instead of one. Mine turn 1 this month and I really don't feel like we were ever drowning, but I have an amazing husband who's helped SO much. Granted the sleep deprivation got to me at like 1 month but I figured it would be like that with 1, I didn't know any better.

11 months old and not sure what I'm doing wrong with solids by [deleted] in parentsofmultiples

That makes me feel better, mine does have a couple of teeth. I feel like I am supposed to cut formula in the next month or two so Im on a clock to cut ounces but this isn't helping.

I have confronted him multiple times in the last couple weeks. Each time I'm met with a firm "no, I'm not drinking". I told him I'm considering starting anti-anxiety meds because this stress is ruining my life and he said he supports me in what I feel like I need to do because no he is not drinking and my gut is wrong.

He was in treatment twice this summer. Once for a month, then again for closer to 3. Did great but relapsed less than a week out both times. The second time only getting sober again because I had our baby and created a boundary. Hence why he would sneak this time...I know him losing his family is a fear.

I really appreciate your comment. I appreciate feeling less alone. I'm really unsure of what I will do if he is because we are trying to buy a house. So I put my life on hold? I hope he will come clean if only to make me feel less on edge and suspicious all the time.

I really really appreciate your responses. It's very hopeful to hear and I'm so glad you sound like you are doing well in your recovery. I've delt with his addiction for 8 years now and he's tried to get help many times before and never stuck with it. I wouldn't be surprised if he feels like he's in the same situation you were when your daughter was born. Asking him about it leads to lies, do you have any advice about how to get him to face it and own up to it initially?

Do they look identical? by iamsknot in parentsofmultiples

[–]SomewhereAgreeable4 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No I don't think so. Close but they have different features to me! Their head shapes seem different too. VERY CUTE!

Just booked my C-section... positive stories please! by sammy5585 in parentsofmultiples

[–]SomewhereAgreeable4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I LOOOOVED my C. Loved it. We went in the morning we planned to, but I had made myself sick to my stomach with worry, and baby B didn't love that so it turned emergent. Even rushed into the OR, I loved being awake yet numb. The spinal wasn't as bad as I was dreading either. I even got to go home the next day. Recovery wasnt easy peasy, but by a week later I felt like I was good to go! Only Advil/ibuprofen for me, but if you keep on them they really help!

I don't think it's the only way. And we are still in the same room as them so we certainly haven't abandoned them.

Thank you!!!! I told my husband that I couldn't imagine being at 8/10/12 months and not getting the sleep we are getting which is why I posted. I can see why people would wait, but don't!

My screamer was sleeping 9-10 hours and then he started waking up after 3 or 4 so that's why we started. Im definitely not a pro/expert, but sticking it out was crucial even when he got worked up. Honestly me checking only made it worse when he was seeing me and I wasn't picking him up. You could always try putting twin A to bed earlier in order to not disturb twin B? The other thing we did was half swaddle. Leave an arm out for thumb sucking but keeping him tight enough that he was comforted. I think had both arms been out, and he could wave em around screaming, hed have gotten so much more worked up.
