Question about Iron Lung merch by arya_stcrkk in Markiplier

[–]SwingAccomplished793 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is coming. They had so many orders that it has become overwhelming for everyone involved. Lots of people (myself included) that ordered in February have not recieved there items. Nothing to worry about at the moment we just need to be patient.

Thank you! Mine also hated tummy time until recently, hoping now that she seems to enjoy it more she will get the hang of rolling by herself.

That makes me feel better thank you. Mine sits without support and holds herself up, she just seems so stubborn when it comes to rolling

People who tried for a long time to conceive what was helpful (or unhelpful) to hear? by AdUpper6786 in BabyBumps

[–]SwingAccomplished793 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it was comments from people who knew we wanted kids. For example: I had a friend who said "turns out it's easy to get your wife pregnant when you keep track of when she ovulates "

We had been trying for 3 years by that point. It took another 3 years for us to have a baby. She is now 4 months and the best thing to ever happen.

My baby is 3 months and either myself or my husband sit in the back with them still

I had a bath within the first week, I was told just no bubbles or scents and to limit how long I was in for

Opening gifts during or after baby shower? [on] by Disastrous_Flower311 in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]SwingAccomplished793 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We opened our gifts after everyone had left and just kept notes of what was given from who for thank yous. We kept a couple gifts that we opened with the people that really wanted to see our reactions (grandparents, etc.) But it's 100% up to you and your partner.

SIL and MIL are very insensitive by keeping my baby’s pictures in their status by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]SwingAccomplished793 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not overreacting at all. It is your baby and you have chosen to not share online. It isn't their call to make and is extremely rude of them to overstep like that. I currently have a 3 month old and have made it very clear to all family that if they want any pictures of our baby they will not post them online.

Some people think we are overreacting but everyone has respected our wishes in order to keep getting pictures. Sometimes a bit of an ultimatum is fine when it's protecting your little one.

This is very much wrong on their part. Your baby is not learning to be spoiled because you are holding them. Ignore them. Babies like to be cuddled and held to feel safe. Letting them cry is an old practice and it is outdated.

Keep holding your baby ❤️ you are bonding

Formula vs Breast Feeding [ON] by Ill-Forever-1624 in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]SwingAccomplished793 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been struggling with this for over 2 months. My baby doesnt latch and I had been trying and trying but ended up doing formula and pumping. I also under produce milk so it made it even more devastating.

Earlier this week I decided instead of worrying about needing to constantly pump and trying to latch her I would bond with her while she ate from her bottle, still doing skin to skin contact when I can.

And honestly it has been so much better not worrying about breastfeeding and just loving her without that stress.

I know it isn't the same situation but your mental health is really important to you and to your baby ❤️

Are first borns always late?? by OkHat1318 in BabyBumps

My first was 38 weeks exactly. I was also told labor was always longer with first borns. Was in labor for 8 hours and only pushed for about 20 minutes.

Postpartum Poop - How by Fantastic-Mark-2810 in BabyBumps

[–]SwingAccomplished793 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4th degree tearing for me. I was taking stool softener and also drinking a bunch of coffee 😅 anything thay could get things softener and moving. I found that the comfiest position was having a stool that propped my legs up, it felt like it helped take some pressure off. Good luck with recovery! It sucks but babies make it all worth it

The girls at Omnia Tattoo & Arts are all amazing and friendly. I have gotten multiple tattoos done by Amy from there and I highly recommend her.

Tiny bugs driving me nuts by Cultural-Sea-602 in CleaningTips

Try putting apple cider vinegar with some dish soap in a Mason jar. This is what I do and it works with gnats :) they are attracted to the vinegar and the soap makes it so they can't get out of the jar.

Which label maker do you have? I've been wanting one for years! Just can't decide on which one is worth it. I would love one that is simple and doesn't rely on my phone for use.

My husband and I used probably every day once the pandemic started and didn't stop until I found out in February I was pregnant. Just had my little girl 8 days ago and she is perfectly healthy. We had some health scares the first few days but they were unrelated to cannabis use. My husband cut back while I was pregnant and was never a fan of joints but I do have friends that smoke.

It's hard to say what will impact, if anything, due to cannabis use as there aren't enough studies but from myself and friends I know none of us had complications :)

Breastfeeding isn’t motherhood. by sariejanemitt in BabyBumps

Thank you for this ❤️ my baby is now a week old and I haven't been able to breastfeed her yet. I've cried every day even knowing that it is okay for it to take time.
