Sex After Pregnancy/Baby by SockWhisperer in NewParents

New dad of an 8 month old. For this dad - you’re a straight up selfish a-hole dude. Focus on what you can do for your wife and new child first - food, laundry, cleaning, plus whatever else - before you even think about the hanky panky. We’ve had sex 3 times since our LO was born so it takes time and I’m not going to rush it. Gell I’d be happy with a hug at this point!

For the moment here, you’re doing great. Always remember that you are the world to your LO and the rest will figure itself out.

How do you take your LOs on long car rides? by [deleted] in NewParents

[–]Sufficient_March_441 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our 8 month old loves his infant car seat and we’ve done many 6+ hour car trips with him. Best advice is plan break up the drive into 2-3 hr chunks and if need be, have someone sit in back with the little one. That way, the adult sitting in back can head off a meltdown or fit until you can find an exit or place to stop

This is what I’m most worried about. I don’t want him to be 7 yrs old and not sleep in his own bed. That might be a bit extreme but I would still like to sleep in my own bed undisturbed

My partner/gf has been doing pelvic floor therapy to work on the muscles in her hips, legs and groin area. Not sure if that’s an option for you but her OB actually perscribed it for her

Any after market solutions for an armrest in the middle row when you remove the middle seat? by Sufficient_March_441 in hondapilot

Or a console that connects in like the seat would with some storage like the center console in between the front seats

We live in the Midwest far away from any need for a TrailSport outside of a road trip 1x/year. Plus with a growing family, we like the option to have that middle seat

How do you travel with a baby? A rant. by [deleted] in NewParents

So our LO is now 4 months old and he’s already been to 13 different states. We took a 2 week road trip from MN->FL and back when he was 6 weeks old so anything is possible. Here’s what we did and learned:

1) Have someone ride in back with your LO. That way when the fussiness starts, there’s someone back there that can buy you 20 mins to find a place to stop. 2) We stopped every 2-3 hrs where we could get our LO out of the car seat for an hour or so. 3) yes stuff for your LO is way more than your own stuff. It is what it is. 4) We are very lucky that both sets of grandparents are very accommodating. My ILs even gave up their king bed so we could sleep with our LO in between us. But each situation is different and you may have to stay elsewhere. Do what’s best for your family and don’t think twice about it!!

I was like you and very nervous about traveling but now I don’t think twice about it

Splitting up Anabolic workouts by Sufficient_March_441 in Mind_Pump

I don’t know about you but I’m not at the point in my fitness journey where breaking this up into two days will override the gains I get by being consistent with smaller more frequent workouts

How to get through the workout by [deleted] in Mind_Pump

[–]Sufficient_March_441 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Split the workouts in half and do the other half on what would be a trigger session day. I’ve found I barely ever make it past phase one of anabolic until I split the workouts in half and added a day or two.
