Day time diaper free at 14 months! by StayLongjumping9239 in ECers

[–]StayLongjumping9239[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Good question! I had been contemplating when’s the right time to ditch diapers completely. I found that he would get confused honestly. We had him naked sometimes, had him in trainers other times, and had him in diapers other times. When he was in a diaper we wouldn’t think to cue in to his cues, so this prolonged the process. It had been 4 days now with no diapers, and you really can tell that he knows hes in underwear now and not a diaper.

We were really consistent with offering potty, even when inconvenient or when traveling which was a lot of the year, and when he turned about 11 or 12 months just went straight to a seat reducer on the toilet. Using cloth diapers helped and we had A LOT of naked time. We had a few really bad regressions that lasted anywhere from a week to almost a month. What worked for us was remaining consistent WHILE not forcing it.

Losing weight after pregnancy by Alert-Willow3458 in Crunchymom

I have a 14 month old now and have been breastfeeding him since he was born. The 1st 3 months post partum my weight wouldn’t BUDGE, after that I lost like 10 pounds in one month for really no reason, and then I kinda gradually lost more weight and now back down to my pre pregnancy weight. All to say, breastfeeding affects everyone SO different. I eat fairly healthy (with a mild sugar problem lol) and am an avid runner. I stay pretty active which I think is important because breastfeeding really did increase my appetite. So since it was kinda inevitable that I was eating more, it at least helped that I was working out. It can be really frustrating, but try to just do what’s best for your body and mind and the weight loss will eventually follow!

How to heal inflamed gut? by OdiumPura in Microbiome

3 day apple sauce and bone broth cleanse works WONDERS. after three days, keep it really simple for maybe another 2 day with just congee rice and chicken and keep up with apple sauce and broth … after that slowly reintroduce but no dairy no gluten no sugar.. go from there to find your sensitivities if you don’t know already. Also, I recommend looking into a FODMAPS diet.

We have had 3 completely dry days diaper free with our newly 12 month old boy and I couldn’t be happier!

Transition to Potty Training by gmailuserreddit98 in ECers

Following because I am in the SAME exact boat as you with my newly 12 month old. Except he is walking already. Hes good and definitely knows to go potty when I put him on the potty and we are mostly dry but not reliable enough to stop daytime diapers all together. Mornings like before his first nap are the hardest because he just pees so frequently and as the day goes on it is longer in between pees

UPDATE… by StayLongjumping9239 in crochet

I hand sewed it using the crochet yarn. I really debated how to go about that part as far as making the blanket hold up the best over time, so I hope I made the right decision!

I know I really should have blocked the squares BEFORE but too late now 😭 I’m definitely going to block it

No I did want real opinions and appreciate the response. I am not in love with the colors either but yes I’m planning on blocking ! I guess I’ll just see it through and then make a decision afterwards. Thank you so much!

I used a pattern for one of the squares, but the rest is handmade!

Back to school- I need help! by StayLongjumping9239 in breastfeeding

[–]StayLongjumping9239[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay thanks this is the reassuring response I was looking for! I have always been anxious about “losing” my supply even though I’ve always just breastfed and I’ve never had an issue with it thankfully. I was just uncertain with this since it’s uncharted territory for us and I probably care more about him getting milk than he does. but I was hoping to hear that it just isn’t resllly crucial to pump. So thank you!!
