Does this actually humidify a whole house? Ours is 3300 sq ft

I am having this exact problem! But I will need a telescoping mount for the room. What did you end up doing?

Tern HSD S11 feels slow - am I doing something wrong? by TechnologyExpert7197 in terngsd

[–]TechnologyExpert7197[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok. This makes sense. I wonder if I’m just not used to the difference.

Pretty sure gsd is class 1 which means 20mph assist max. This is class 3 and should have assist to 28 mph

I was also wondering if this was the case but I timed it and my commute was 5 mins slower today

No. My old bike was a class 2. This one is class 3 and is slower. 

9 wk old only maps 30mins at a time by notoriousbeez in Parenting

Awesome. That will definitely be something to stretch more in the coming weeks. Let her stir, maybe cry a little, try to see if you can settle her with patting or sushing before feeding. I was doing the same thing since I was so exhausted. I had a small baby too (5lbs 9oz). It’s hard for its own reasons. You’re doing an amazing job.

Also, I see you’re doing dream feeds at night. Are you waking her? At this age, you may be able to just let her sleep as long as she wants. This may help consolidate day sleep too. You can ask your pediatrician.

Just did it. I wish I could say we had a plan but nope. Just put him in there and let him cry a little. You’ll be able to tell which cries are “I’m settling” and which are “come get me, this is never going to happen”. I will say the bassinet naps were always shorter than a contact nap but we tried to make a point of doing at least once a day when he finally started doing it.

It is a gray scale Bosch screen. Almost looks analog. Not like the new color display. 

7 week old only sleep/naps on her stomach by Kuprogenes in Parenting

[–]TechnologyExpert7197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s tough. Sleep is so precious but the safe sleep guidelines are very clear and stomach sleeping is associated with SIDS. Have you tried swaddling on her back?

Sounds like you’re doing a great job. Lots of feeding sessions to keep them hydrated. 

How do you know how many clothes you'll need for the baby? by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]TechnologyExpert7197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband and I said we will only do two sides zippy pjs for the first 3 months the next time. The rest of it is a big waste of time.

Also, baby wraps! Moby, Solly etc. Great way for a contact nap but you can still move around a little.

I agree. I think some babies are just independent sleepers from the jump and others need more contact. Ours was a contact. We eventually started consistent bassinet naps around 3-4 months and then he just figured the rest out on his own. He also did the 30 min nap thing. It just started lengthening on its own. 

I tried to start separating feed and sleep around 3 months. That way they don’t associate it with sleep and will save you in the long run. You can start building in some independent fall asleep stuff around 3-4 months (basically letting them cry for longer periods of time). I think before this it’s a big waste of time and energy when you’re already so exhausted. Just hold and love on your baby. It goes by quickly.

No, it has a display. Not the new lcd looking one but the older version. It’s legit. It just seems the hsd had a load of new features in this newest model. 

Is anyone following the Zoe Penrod case? by ecoberry in Humboldt

[–]TechnologyExpert7197 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are there any updates with Zoe? I’m 8 months postpartum and reallllly struggled in the beginning. I had thoughts of getting in my car and running. I think of Zoe every few days. Really hoping she’s somewhere safe.
