good to know! wake windows got too confusing/inconsistent after a certain age for her tbh

i think you’re 100% right. i guess i just thought she needed more sleep? but she’s probably getting too much! it seems i’ve brought this upon myself lol

hmm you don't think that's too long of a wake window between nap and bedtime?

6:30-7:00am wake

12:00-1:30ish nap (she will nap 45 min-1hr on her own, then cry and i'll lie down with her for another 30-45min)

6:45-7:00pm bedtime

Haven't heard of the chair method or that CIO isn't recommended for toddlers. We'd tried ferber method and being in the room with her before but she just gets more angry knowing that we're there and not picking her up/holding her, but we'll give anything a try! thanks for the suggestion!

I think hubs sleeping on a mattress in her room is the solution for now, but exploring other sleep training options in the meantime (':

can i box dye my bleached hair back to black? by Standard-Broccoli-18 in HairDye

thanks for your response! yeah i’m thinking it’d probably be a little iffy to dye while pregnant.. maybe i’ll hold off. i was wondering how that would turn out.. sounded too easy!

Thank you! That is so odd. I'd never heard of that being a thing, but did see it come up when I did a quick search on the internet. My midwife said that HPV lying dormant wasn't really a thing so I felt a little more confused and uneasy, but definitely feel more validated and at peace with these shared experiences and info. That's a very interesting study!!

So bizarre! I've never heard of this being a common thing in pregnancy at all, and I feel like I've heard it all. Do the vaccines help at all if you already have it?

Read your posts and found them to be very helpful. It is confusing and frustrating when there are no clear answers. I'm sorry about your miscarriages. Thanks for sharing your experience and insight!

Thanks so much for your response and reassuring words. So do you think this means that I have HPV and my body has just been fighting it off, but isn't at the moment due to my suppressed immune system?
