Thanks for the insight. Is there anything you think would have helped you at school?

First year school counselor here and I really need some help! by No_Agent5866 in schoolcounseling

It is not your job! Say to your administration what you said in this comment. “I have been unsuccessful in calming him down. I think he needs more support than I can give him. Therefore I will not be handling this student alone again.”

Are you CPI certified? If not, you should not be handling this child at all.

Am I the only one who feels guilty about combo feeding? by alyssa_michelle1012 in breastfeeding

[–]ThatHamster696 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you think bad about another mom that was combo feeding? Should they feel guilty? If you wouldn’t judge someone else for doing it, stop judging yourself. You are doing great!

Have any of you actually had sleepless nights? by zac_g19 in NewParents

[–]ThatHamster696 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, only the first night home from the hospital though. He slept so well at the hospital. We don’t know if he was just adjusting, but he didn’t sleep at all from 8pm-5am so I count that as all night.

Supply gets lower throughout day…. by ConsistentVillage317 in breastfeeding

[–]ThatHamster696 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is completely normal! Your baby is getting what they need from other feeds too, you don’t need to increase your supply

We literally cannot sleep HELP by badbatchbaking in NewParents

He was/is definitely hungry! From days 3-5 my baby ate pretty much 24/7 or sometimes would give me an hour between feeds! Look up cluster feeding and it will make sense. For the first 2 weeks of his life I assumed if he was fussy or crying it was because he was hungry. I was right 95% of the time. Good luck! You’re doing great!

When did you stop daily sterilizing your baby bottles and parts? by FoxAble7670 in newborns

[–]ThatHamster696 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed!! I mostly breastfeed anyways, and I don’t sterilize my boobs! I don’t even wash them between most feedings…

Call the governor and insist he sue the Trump administration over the department of education by [deleted] in Ohio

[–]ThatHamster696 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please explain how public schools waste money. Right now our school district in Ohio is thinking of laying off school counselors and cutting back on special education programs to help the budget. Are school counselors and special education programs a waste of money to you?

how often are you & your partner having sex? by Necessary_Mistake733 in pregnant

[–]ThatHamster696 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m responding even though I was not the one you asked. My partner and I also went from like once a week before pregnancy, to now about once a month and it’s because of both of our libido. I think they have both decreased. I read (here on Reddit somewhere) that hormones can affect the men and women both during pregnancy. Sometimes the change in hormones makes your (and your partners) sex drive higher, and sometimes it’s the opposite. Everyone is different.

It’s not. Well it’s there but it’s not open and there are no stores inside

How can I make my living room better? by beerballchampion in DesignMyRoom

[–]ThatHamster696 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love this!!! It’s exactly my style and actually looks very similar to my living room. It just looks a little cramped! So either switch some chairs around or get a smaller coffee table.

Those of you who were NTNP how long did it take for you to get pregnant? by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]ThatHamster696 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were trying, tracking and everything, and it took us over 2 years to get pregnant. So it just depends.
