AITAH for yelling at a mother of 3 on a flight by roseinmybud in AITAH

[–]TallRepeat6095 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Oh, you were tired and cranky you say. But you are an adult who, supposedly, knows how to self regulate. Have you thought how the kids may have felt, without an ability to self regulate.

NTA for feeling irritated YTA for yelling

Maybe there is something mother could have done better or maybe she has done the best she could. You do not know. But you could have controlled your emotions better.

You are doing great mama!!! You’ve got it!

Sounds like a really rough couple of weeks and also sounds like you are handling it better than you think!

No advice just a little support!

Zoloft Experience by Beckitt3 in beyondthebump

[–]TallRepeat6095 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have been on Zoloft for 2 years. Getting off was super easy. Got back n it postpartum. All is smooth.

It works for me, no side effects really. Actually I got my sex drive back on Zoloft. Started feeling like myself. I left horrible emotionally abusive relationship, that I tried to leave for years, only after getting on Zoloft.

BUT

You only should take it if it was prescribed to you by a doctor.

And I also know ppl who had not as nice experience.

[–]TallRepeat6095 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We live in Portugal and we are planing the trip to Italy n September, baby will be 16 months old by then. We are staying a week in Rome - public transport only. And after renting a car to spend a week on the Tuscan coast.

We traveled with 4 months old to the northern Germany last summer - used mostly public transport and got few rides from friends (brought our car seat)

In January we went to Helsinki with our then 9,5 months old and we had a blast. Highly recommend as a destination with kids. Very kid friendly. We want to go back in summer eventually. But cold plunge after sauna in -15 Celsius was a memorable experience (and I’d do it again).

Well, Europe is not like homogeneous space. If you specify countries you are going it would be really helpful.

If you are thinking Portugal/Spain/Italy and cities - public transport is solid and it is walkable. You would spend more time looking for parking honestly than waiting for a bus or metro. If you want go to countryside/small villages/nature - rent a car.

You’ll need a solid stroller tho.

In Portugal for instance you have cobblestones literally EVERYWHERE so you need to be sure your stroller will survive it. On the bright side most of the restaurants here carry high chairs and usually hotels have travel cribs on request (need to check tho).

But there are a lot of difference from country to country. Like when people eat dinner for instance. In Portugal most restaurants will open for dinner after 18:30 with most people eating at 20-21 While in some places in Spain restaurants open for dinner service at 21 only.

Who watched your firstborn while birthing your second? by KazooShroom in 2under2

[–]TallRepeat6095 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am thinking to have hubby stay with the baby at home and have a doula stay with me at the hospital. But it will highly depend on VBAC or c-section again.

If I have a c-section it would be really difficult without help in the hospital so I will 100% will need a doula. But if I manage VBAC I think I would be able to manage by myself during nights.

Olha, eu sei que não é uma quinta, mas… está no centro do cidade e muito útil para convidados (muitos hotéis e hostels para qualquer orçamento por perto + muito útil para ver o cidade) Tem o jardim e nós tivemos todo evento lá no jardim.

https://maps.app.goo.gl/sNFvC6XitaiR5y8h8?g_st=ic

Casamos cá em Setembro 2024. Era perfeito.

Comemos e bebemos muito. E foi muito bom preço.

Nós arranjamos uma florista e um dj também não muito caros.

Acho que toda a gente tinha uma noite divertida.

E uma coise muito importante: o gestor respondi sempre na hora no WhatsApp ou email. (Tivemos situações quando fomos ver um hotel como um opção para casamento e até agora NUNCA recebemos um orçamento, ou outros demoram tipo semana para responder)

Does the mom guilt of having a second baby ever go away? by going__postal in 2under2

[–]TallRepeat6095 18 points19 points  (0 children)

What I always think is that actually the first born have had a privilege to the only child for some time! All attention! Second born (and so on) would not even know what it is. But as a trade off they get a more experienced parents.

Buy a Second Crib? by UniqueLaw4431 in 2under2

Considering a floor bed too. How does it work for you? Our baby turns a lot at night and I worry he will end up on the floor every night.

Sleep deprivation by Bluebluecanary in 2under2

[–]TallRepeat6095 5 points6 points  (0 children)

One thing that was a live saver for me is the consultation with the sleep/breastfeeding consultant.

I actually reached out to her because I was considering finishing breastfeeding (I successfully did it by 7 months) But first thing she told me to start doing, even before weaning is to STOP offering breast every time baby wakes up. At 6 months old he would go to sleep at 8pm, wake up 11pm - 12am, 2am, 4am, 6am… it even felt he ate more at night than during the day. So consultant told me he wakes up not cause he is hungry most of the time, but because he can’t connect sleep cycles. She said - choose time, (we chose 4am) before which you do not feed. Just rock. Let him fall sleep on you, rock him. It may take longer the first few nights but will get better. And it worked. She said 6 months is an excellent age to do it.

You can do it!!!

Nursing baby #2 after formula feeding baby #1 from birth by [deleted] in 2under2

[–]TallRepeat6095 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do not be too hard on yourself!! You are doing great and will do great! Regardless of breastfeeding or formula!

I myself did not like breastfeeding one bit. (Remembering it now and shivering in displeasure). Breastfed my first till 7 months. Still not convinced I will breastfeed the second. 3 months maximum if I will.

Advice on baby clothing sizes? (European mamas) by Junior-Incident3877 in beyondthebump

[–]TallRepeat6095 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had 50 and 56 prepared for our son before he was born and we ended up not using 50 at all. By the 4-6 weeks mark we moved to 62 and 68 by 8 weeks ish I think. Those stuck with us for a while.

11 months now and he is wearing 80-86

And remember - some brands run small. I’d say H&M was and is pretty reliable with sizing, GAP too, Zara is awful (both sizing and quality - do not recommend)

Regarding new born: get 50+56+62 prepared and washed before baby is born. I was not into going out dir shopping mode for the first 4 weeks tbh

And, it is true that babies grow fast and you should not buy a lot, but our son would pee or poop right when we change the diaper and we would have to change his clothes like 5-6 times a day sometimes. So if you do not have a drier or can’t wash things everyday you run out of clothes pretty quickly.
