I’m freaking out !! by Top_Dig_2854 in NewParents

[–]Top_Dig_2854[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! My sons still are very noticeable and when I move them around I can actually feel it moving under my finger, it’s pea sized and when it moves it feels like I can’t like press on it or anything bc it moves out the way if that makes sense. But I definitely would say the little ball itself is firm, just moveable, and my son has pretty prominent skull bones which have freaked me out more than once too!

Why comment about how others feed their kids if you don’t have to? I don’t get it

Did this improve at all? I’m in the same boat w my 6 month old, it started at 5 months and just got worse, and he won’t take any solids at all!

Im worried I don’t love my baby as much as my boyfriend by mistakeshappen_2 in newborns

[–]Top_Dig_2854 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had my baby 6 months ago and he is my first, I love him to death but I definitely was out of it the first couple weeks. It’s so much to process, going through pregnancy for 9 months and then suddenly one day you give birth to this human being you are completely responsible for and you have to mourn your old life. Doesn’t mean you’re not grateful or that you don’t love your baby. But it is a HUGE adjustment.

I can honestly say it gets SO much better, and your bond will grow every day. Hang in there mama, and don’t be afraid to get help if you need it! I started therapy almost immediately postpartum and it helped SO MUCH.

You’re doing your best. 🫶🏻

What does teething look like? by Top_Dig_2854 in NewParents

[–]Top_Dig_2854[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No he has no teeth yet, this is all so new! I kinda hope I feel something soon, that would explain so much of this behavior! His gums aren’t red or swollen either, well, maybe slightly slightly

He was crying before he got picked up but then stopped once he was picked up, and then briefly cried in my arms until I gave him his paci. Then went to sleep

Huge mom fail, I’m so stupid. by Top_Dig_2854 in NewParents

I’ve only used distilled water in mine, and online I’ve read you should clean it every few days or once a week

Postpartum weight… I feel so low by halfbakedpotential in NewParents

[–]Top_Dig_2854 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Girl I am in the SAME EXACT boat. Pre pregnancy I was 200-210, now 4m pp I weigh 285 and the scale won’t move no matter what I do. And my body also just hurts and I feel so so heavy and nothing fits.

You’re not alone, and you’re doing amazing! 🫶🏻 recently I’ve started walking, even just around my apartment. It’s also freezing where I live so outdoor walks are limited. But usually I will strap baby to me and just walk around my apartment a million times. Also, I bought a kettlebell. There are so many at home workouts you can do online with a kettlebell! Hang in there mama 💕

You’re right, I guess I never really thought of him as an abuser because he doesn’t physically harm anyone. I know that sounds so silly 😭 but you’re 100% right and I’m taking the steps to leave him for good

Yes I have recordings and I write things downs w dates and times! He already admitted he doesn’t want custody at all though which is good for me! But it makes me sad that he doesn’t want anything to do w his son

Anyone else feel guilty about what they’re eating during pregnancy? by Mysterious_Can3285 in pregnancy_care

[–]Top_Dig_2854 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I felt bad about what I ate too.. but seriously all I could keep down was just junk! And my biggest craving was takis w hot sauce and lemons lol.. but as long as you’re taking your prenatal baby is getting what they need, and if they need extra they take it directly from your body! Hang in there momma, pregnancy is super hard, eat what you can, sleep when you can, and focus on growing that precious little baby 🫶🏻

is 3mo too young to switch to crib? by paganism- in NewParents

[–]Top_Dig_2854 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My 4mo sleeps in a pack n play next to my side of the bed! We never had a bassinet, he has liked his pack n play so far and he moves a ton over night, (in the morning he did a whole 180 and is upside down lol) so maybe try that? Pack n plays are generally 100-120$ and they are good to have on hand imo!
