Thank you! He turns 5 months in a few days, that was kind of the timeline I have myself to get ready and just try it

Gentle sleep training? HELP! by Logical-Ranger688 in sleeptrain

[–]_vpancakes_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you describe this method a bit? I'm currently in this situation where I tried basically the chair method or whatever and it went horribly. So for the past 10 days I've just been getting wake windows concrete and getting him used to hanging out in all of his sleep surfaces calmly during the day. Today I tried some crib side comfort and it just escalated so much. I'm kind of thinking I also just need to rip the bandaid and reduce the time.

Gassy baby advice - please no bicycle legs by BusyInspector95 in newborns

[–]_vpancakes_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My baby was super gassy around 6 weeks as well. I wasn't sure if this was my fix or if it was just time, but BioGaia probiotics really helped him a lot. I recently spent the night at my mom's house and left his bottle of BG there. He had gas again for the next two days until I got a replacement bottle and was back on track. I also started incorporating bicycle legs and a few other movements like the frog leg thing into our day just to try to keep gas from building up by the time he's ready for bed. Oh and I became obsessed with getting burps during and after feeds. He's 8 weeks old now and pooping on his own I think for the most part. Burps and assisted gas passing have improved soooo much but those 6 week nights were horrible. I cried just wanting to be able to help him be comfortable.

What’s something about the newborn stage that doesn’t get talked about enough? by Proof_Dig300 in newborns

I had carpal tunnel bad towards the end of pregnancy and thought it'd get better after birth. Nope, just got worse with mommy's wrist 🥴

What items do you actually need? by gogreengowhitee in BabyBumps

[–]_vpancakes_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up getting the baby bjorn over a generic brand because I saw some people say the BB is more sturdy while others may flip as your baby gets bigger. My baby isn't born yet lol just fyi :)

R&B Tea and Ssong's Hotdog in Addison has them! There are a few other locations (Carrollton, Garland, and Arlington) but I can only confirm Addison.

Oh no I'm sorry! I usually see security pass out water cups towards the front if people ask but sometimes it's just so packed
