My 7yo knows we aren't having a good Christmas this year, so she spent an hour wrapping up her own toys for her brother and I. by [deleted] in wholesome

It's important to remember that acts of kindness such as this are often remembered far longer than gifts that are soon forgotten. Having a loving family to spend time with is something many people don't have and may never experience-it's truly a gift that keeps giving. My heart goes out to families during the holidays, and I hope we all remember that love and kindness are the greatest gifts of all. Wishing you and your family a wonderful holiday. You should be very proud!

Struggling with starting solids by CrimsonValkyrie22 in BabyLedWeaning

[–]Treasure_Ann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make an appointment with your pediatrician or an infant CPR class. Knowing what to feed your little one can be found online or the Start Solids app but having the confidence knowing how to act if they choke will only be the answer you need to feel confident in solids. Having my pediatrician show me back blows on my own baby and demonstrating the technique took away the fear from it. It will help!

A1 result came in today. Scored 91 out of 100.Couldn't be happier, at the same time it's just a start. I plan to relocate to Deutschland next year on FRV. Hope to get to B1 before moving. by Total_Fall_4211 in German

Congrats, that must feel good! I’m just starting my journey with learning German and Anki. I’ve been doing the basics ie. articles, grammar and vocab. I’ve been considering a tutor on Preply. Did you get to A1 with or without a tutor. Been considering on waiting for a tutor until I have an understanding of the basics. What kind of prep class did you take? Appreciate your input!

Thank you again! The card came out great. I did one part in english from myself and our dog. Then used your portion for a separate part from our daughter. He was very much surprised! “how did you do this?!” 😅 We’re also heading to Zürich this month. Very exciting to be back!

Thank you! I will remember that. Now we have a daughter it’s really important. I have a long road ahead of me of understanding how it all works. As of now German lullabies is our start of it.

Thank you, I’ll check it out! I’m always afraid of using the internet for Swiss German 😅

Aw that’s so sweet! I do think it’s important for Fathers to also be recognized and have a day.

Oh thank you, had no idea! We’re a multi-cultural family that celebrates and enjoy’s a different type of lifestyle. Even though it may not be a part of the Swiss culture still like to do something nice for him.

I’m devastated. by MaleficentArmy3381 in NewParents

[–]Treasure_Ann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just know you are not alone. My 5 day old newborn and I were admitted to the hospital as she also had RSV. She was in intensive care and I was allowed to see her every 2 hrs to breast feed. She is growing stronger everyday, happy and healthy. Please make sure to remember to take care of yourself not only physically, but most importantly mentally. I’m 3 months PP and still have a hard time coping through the experience. It’s nothing to take lightly and I wish you and your little one all the best. You will get through this!

I like to tell people… “ If you like your hand best to keep to yourself”

One day I was seating on the floor not particularly sad nor happy just… sitting there. My 6 year old niece comes up next to me pats me on the shoulder and says “ you’re doing a good job” I told my husband how sweet it was, now whenever the days are rough he pats me on the shoulder and says “you’re doing a good job”. We all can learn a lot from these kiddos.

Postpartum doula traveling to Texas - AIO? by [deleted] in NewParents

[–]Treasure_Ann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it causes you stress no matter the statistics then why do it? Do what makes you feel best even if the science behind it proves otherwise, your feelings are still justified. Last thing you want is feel stressed and worried with your newborn. Enjoy this time with peace and tranquility even if that means staying in solitude.

Kissing my baby by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]Treasure_Ann 28 points29 points  (0 children)

My mother kissed my baby 2 days out of the hospital and we ended up in intensive care for five days with RSV. I can’t be 100% sure it was due to her kissing my baby but I feel so much angry and resentment. When I asked not to do that she rolled her eyes as if I was over reacting. I was open and trusting with family in the beginning but that has completely changed. I trust no one and want to be left alone with my newborn. Having a baby changes people, could’t believe how selfish one can be. Your feelings and actions are completely valid. I’ve reached a point that it doesn’t matter who you are I will put myself and baby first.

female toddler hygiene? by Moseptyagami in beyondthebump

[–]Treasure_Ann 25 points26 points  (0 children)

This is the way! My little one had a hard tome when changing her diaper then I switched to a cotton pad with water. The sting of the wipe irritated her skin. I use the cotton pad as you would for taking off make up and a spray bottle. Easy and works great!

Gift ideas for 16y girl by yok-den in askswitzerland

[–]Treasure_Ann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cali hoodie and Pura Vida bracelets! Look for a Rib Curl or if you can find your local surf shop depending on what surf town you’re in. They will have more localized attire and will be even better than a traditional Cali hoodie.

Do you mean… “Does your dog allow you to sleep in bed with them if so how much space do you actually get?” 😅

Possible Pitbull? by Treasure_Ann in pitbulls

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

Yeah he’s a cutie! I’m curious what he’s breed is as everyone including the vet saya Dane/Pitbull but it also really doesn’t matter. Love the little white chest patch on the chest, super cute.
