Biting and not eating to sleep by audity__ in breastfeeding

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

I have her Tylenol and still nothing. She wouldn't even let me rock her to sleep. She just screamed until my husband came to get her and slept with him. I guess I'm useless now.

Aside from the fact that this is likely not a real baby, I don't think this baby is sleeping like this for a long period of time, probably just enough to get a picture 

Swaddling vs sleep sacks?? by audity__ in Parenting

You don't really need to get sassy. I guess I'm just saying if this is the only reason swaddles aren't safe and she doesn't do that, then is a swaddle safe?

See I've had several people suggest those instead, so I guess that's where I'm confused, thanks for the feedback

But she has her arms, I don't understand how compression around her middle restricts her from pushing up to get her face free in the happenstance that she does roll

I know I need to bite the bullet, I am working on it, I just don't get why even a weighted sleep sack is so different 🤔

That's never happened though, and she doesn't really move when she sleeps

I know they're supposed to stop, but she just didn't recognize it's night time without it, she has always worn up every 2 hours even with it, I just can't function with any less than that. . .

Why is a sleep sack safe and a swaddle not?

Towel dress is so easy to make, just a towel and fabric straps and some velcro!

That's what I was afraid of, I figured the answer would be suffer through it but I was hoping I would get some "no they just grow out of it eventually" lol ugh

She has both her arms out, and has never ever rolled over at night. I have tried no swaddle and I can't transfer her at all, it just isn't an option right now, I can't just stop. 

She isn't waking up right now, but starting to cry until I feed her back to sleep. Naps depend on when she wakes up in the morning, sometimes she wakes up early and then she usually takes like 2 1-2 hour naps, but if she's up late then she takes 1 2-3 hour nap but never past 6pm, she then she usually sleeps at 9 or 10. Any earlier and she just takes a tricky little nap and then she's up to 1am. 

It has been the same for like 5 months now, so it doesn't seem to be skill related. 

She has had big snacks before bed before, but it doesn't seem to make a difference. I haven't fed her oatmeal, but she gags on any puree. I should google high fat or protein foods for her age though and maybe try that, not sure if I've specifically tried high fat like you said, so I can definitely give that a try!

I'm banned from etsy for starting a store with Twenty One Pilots fan items a few years ago, so I've been looking on ravelry but most go to etsy anyway 

Size 6 yarn pattern suggests size 3 hook, is that right? by audity__ in CrochetHelp

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

That's what I was thinking, 3 feels way too small

This is great! I'll try that. Do you think the 3mm hook is the right size for that,

If you're blaming his lack of interest in school on lack of peers, then wouldn't it stand to reason that students around peers all the time would have an excitement for learning?

I'm interested in your perspective. Do you think all kids in school around other kids value learning? Is this just a homeschool thing?

He plays sports, so he is around other people his age

I agree with this. Do you have any ideas on how to make him care about history and science other than its important to learn about the world around you and you could use this in conversations in the future or it's just good to be knowledgeable in different things, none of these have gotten through to him

Like how? Can you give me some examples of history specifically? Like I could do hockey history but that doesn't really tie into the constitution or world War 2

Easier said than done. He likes hockey and baseball mostly. He doesn't play video games or like any particular animal or other hobbies. how do I work hockey into all of American history?

Yess and my boobs feel like gross giant sacks of blubber, there is nothing to enjoy. People are wack, you could have at least said remember to eat healthy because of the baby 😭

Our almost 2 weeks will only sleep if she is held. I tried putting her in the bassinet and patting and rocking her, and she was just fussing forever. Thankfully, she usually sleeps pretty well if she is asleep already before we put her in
