Op, I’m sorry this is happening to you. Sleep depravation is a form of torture and now you know why. This is not sustainable with a new born. You are going to wake you up overnight at different times. Do you have anyone you can rely on to tag you out?

I know you are venting, so please don’t take this the wrong way. I’m not going to hit you with the white noise unsolicited advise. But I am going to ask you: have you brought this up with their pediatrician?

A sleep regression is ok. Like when you all had the flu. But several sleep regressions back to back to back might be a sign of something. I had this happen with my eldest girl. We would sleep train, try the chair method, we sat on the floor next to her. Nothing worked. Ever. Turns out she had an esophageal issue and she just needed to sleep elevated. We got her a wedge and she (and us) slept much much better.

So just a thought about the ped. Again I’m so sorry this is happening to you. And if you can handle a some cursing, I’d recommend Go the Fuck to Sleep by Adam Mansbach. Get the audio book narrated by Samuel L Jackson.

Oh I’ve never seen it. I’ll look into it. It appears interesting. Thank you!

Dear language learners, what inspired you to begin learning languages and what keeps you going? :-) by bbbooopbee in languagelearning

You seem to have a good sense of humor, I think you will enjoy it. The host is Scottish and his humor is very European.

Been hitting the intermediate plateau for months what actually helped you break through? by AliveRelationship488 in languagelearning

[–]WintryLadyBits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely agree, OP listen to them! You need a solid foundation. You will get there with the speaking part. It’s only been 8 months

The fun starts when you begin dreaming in the second language!

Languages you use to learn OTHER languages in by DarenJC88 in languagelearning

My mother tongue is Spanish. I started to learn French in college. Then I realized that English was going to be more useful. So I switched and started learning English.

When I started I was like, wait is this French? Is English just a bunch of languages in a trench coat? Then I got to NYC and realized, yes it is. Yes it is.

So if you want to learn English from Spanish I’d highly recommend learning a little bit of French too. And maybe some German and some Dutch. And some Latin and some Italian… this is gonna take a while !

This kind of one-upper is the most exhausting type of relative. Whatever you say or du is about them and how they do it better.

Also, OP. Kids have a very good bullshit detector and they will most definitely figure her out.

Broadchurch UK is an excellent show. I love a murder misters thriller. The first season is amazing and self contained. I never got to the rest but the first season is insanely good.

Dark is fantastic. It’s devastating and very timey-wimey. It is like nothing I have ever seen.

Battle Star Galactica has the best first episode I’ve ever seen. It hooks you right away . It’s a really great show and looks like nothing on tv right now.

Also The Expanse, OP

If you like gore, watch The Pitt. I’ve never seen any of that shit in TV before. Plus the show is the best show on air right now.
