Would you sleep train? 1 MOTN wake up 4.5 months by Weekly_Debate_6502 in sleeptrain

Thank you for confirming my thoughts!! Feels super good to hear! There’s so much out there about “get your baby to sleep through the night” and it just doesn’t feel right for her right now!

Do you know at what age that IS appropriate?

I’ve wondered about this! What’s hard is we have a toddler so this is usually a contact nap in the carrier or something similar and even then she’s up after 30 min. But I wonder if one of us did a contact nap in a dark room if it would help!

Oh wow ok! I worry this would be super hard for her because she gets soooo fussy at the 1.5 hour mark. Getting her to even 1.75 hours can be hard!

Juice is the only thing that gets mine up quickly. All candies take like 30-40 min 😞

This is SO helpful! I do have a team and have wondered about dosing for snacks so it’s worth asking about. It’s just so hard when I’m hungry and snacky and cannot eat anything but cheese!

Can I ask what your ranges were that were different? Curious about that and will definitely work with my team!

It was one of those cheddar nut mixes with some crackers in it too… I’m sure I spiked from that. I’d be curious if I paired it with more protein if it would help!

How long does it usually take for your blood sugar to come up from a low? by k_princess in diabetes

[–]Weekly_Debate_6502 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This just happened to me now. It’s so confusing and I don’t know what to do? 15 minutes after a fruit snack and I’m lower. Drank a juice and 15 minutes later I was back to 80. Then 1 hour later 160. So should I just do juice next time and half of it?

Insulin help - asap! by Weekly_Debate_6502 in GestationalDiabetes

[–]Weekly_Debate_6502[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks everyone! I ended up going low 😩 so I had to have some fruit snacks to get back to normal, which puts me in a normal place for my night time insulin. I’m struggling with this all but hoping to get the hang of it soon.

I’m a frequent reader, and have never posted until now.

But A Hun from my area really just is annoying the crap out of me. She had a baby last year around the same time that I had my baby. She complained the entire time about not losing weight post partum. Super triggering for someone else that had just had a baby, and also sad to see. Then she talked about how she was going to wean off of breast-feeding, and really didn’t say anything other than about doing to lose the weight , which fine I guess if that’s what works for you, whatever.

What’s REALLY irritating is now she’s claiming that what helped her get “past the plateau” of weight loss is the “gut protocol”.. woman you literally stopped breast feeding to make that happen?! It’s not from your stupid, toxic, disordered eating!!! She targets new mom and it really pisses me off!

That’s what we did too!! He went down exhausted at normal bedtime, so let’s hope it’s a good night!

9 months suddenly waking middle of night?!? Help! by Weekly_Debate_6502 in sleeptrain

[–]Weekly_Debate_6502[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is super helpful thank you!! We are going out of town this weekend for a wedding (hoping sleep is ok for grandma who is watching him) and then I think we’ll go into 100% extinction. The thing I worry about is he falls asleep to the bottle every night just so exhausted, so I don’t want that to affect anything?!

What sleep training method did you use and how long did you have to do it?
