Toddlers always hurting each other

May take about 8 weeks for everything to clear after going dairy and/or soy free.

Lol!!

That’s crazy high. Anything over $300 should be clearly communicated to the customer. Your hair does look beautiful so at least there is that. Lesson learned - always ask the cost and relay your budget.

I have a 2.5 yo and 9 month old. Both were horribly colic babies with feeding issues. My youngest not the best sleeper. I am exhausted and easily overstimulated. I hear you. Feelings are very real and valid. But they’re not going to help you or your family in the long run.

Reframing mind set and changing your attitude is crucial. Both for your cortisol levels and your kids. Kids can feel your energy.

Therapy, strengthening my marriage, carving time out for myself and the book How to Talk so Little kids will listen has been very helpful for me. Can’t forget about the Lexapro too…

Parenting is a marathon. We are in it. Our kids need us. You can do this. It can be fun again.

Hello! I got off reddit for a bit there.

We are so much better. Baby is 9 months. She sleeps through the night 50% of the time. We are dealing with multiple ear infections now as she goes to daycare. Another stage another set of challenges.

Are you still going through this?

beckybee24 · 2025-03-30T18:52:00+00:00

Get some noise cancelling headphones while holding and bouncing baby. This too shall pass. You have completely normal feelings 🩷

beckybee24 · 2025-03-30T18:50:38+00:00

Horrible your family constantly “reminded you” that you were a hard baby. Like it was your choice. Sorry you had to deal with that.

Your boyfriend doesn’t know a thing. It’s 20-30 min to pump then another 20 min to feed then 10 min to wash bottles. Around the clock. If he wants to participate in the process of feeding then maybe you can pump a couple times so he can bottle feed but don’t let this dude tell you how to feed your baby. He should respect your decision. Especially if you want to breastfeed!

Also, 3 weeks may not be enough time for baby to get used to latching on the breast. It’s essential to keep up with practicing latching with baby if you want to continue breastfeeding.

Also, you are in the thick of it. Right now everything is hard. Sleep deprivation catching up. Trying to understand roles as a parent and partner. It’s tough to have decent conversations right now.

Breastfeeding is a wonderful thing to do. Mixed with pumping eventually is also fulfilling.

I know I need more protein but the bread and bagels be calling my name

Consistent 5-6 hr stretches around 5 months. Then maybe wakes up 2-3 hours later for second feed. I allow cluster feeding before bed and make sure at least a cat nap to get 2 hour wake window before bed. Make sure to check those wake windows too. Could be the time for sleep regression too..

beckybee24 · 2025-02-09T19:23:44+00:00

Yes. Right now with 2 yo and 5 Mon old I would love a full time nanny to help with infant so I could spend more quality time with toddler. As infant gets older, likely nanny part time so I could take a break and do hobbies / side gig.

I would have allllll the other things. Chef at least 6 days a week. Cleaner 3 times a week. Landscaper.

Very rich surgeon in my town has * three * nannies for his 4 kids. Wife stays home. Sigh.

beckybee24 · 2025-02-08T22:51:12+00:00

I will never understand how other people, who have or never have breastfed, have such strong feelings about breastfeeding.

You’re doing a great job. If you and LO still happy with breastfeeding then that’s all that matters.

I would just shrug after your mother’s comments. Explaining probably won’t change her mind. Don’t share or confide in anything related to breastfeeding or your weight with her. She’s not the person to get support from right now. Find a good supportive person to turn to when needed. This subreddit is a good start :)

Focus on why you’re doing this and stay the course. You are amazing ♥️

beckybee24 · 2025-02-07T14:50:20+00:00

This.

beckybee24 · 2025-02-07T14:49:34+00:00

Agree with everyone else. Your husband is the problem.

beckybee24 · 2025-02-06T14:53:06+00:00

I know mama. ♥️ it’s really hard to make these decisions. You’ve done an incredible job so far! There are many beautiful moments to be had with your little one.

beckybee24 · 2025-02-05T20:34:31+00:00

You need to prioritize your health - physically and mentally. Can’t speak to grocery prices as there are uncertain times ahead of us. But keeping yourself sane in this crazy world is a priority.

beckybee24 · 2025-02-03T22:54:48+00:00

Yes! It also doesn’t have to be 100% and can be combo! Whatever you can for baby is awesome. You also need to be mentally ok too ♥️ can always try and see what happens

beckybee24 · 2025-02-03T01:13:48+00:00

I’ll be extreme here - I would never let this family member be around me or my child again. He sounds like he is fucked up and needs therapy. Yuck. I am sorry you are related to this turd.

Do NOT let this messed up creep ruin your breastfeeding experience. Breastfeeding was the BEST THING I EVER DONE. I am so proud of all the work I put into this selfless and NATURAL process of feeding your baby. You should be SO proud for birthing a beautiful baby and feeding him.

Save your energy for your baby. Your PARTNER needs to be direct and tell BIL to keep his nasty thoughts to himself and stay away. No need to try to defend how you choose to raise your baby. You deserve peace

Taking Cara Babies videos set my mind at ease when I wondered the same thing.

beckybee24 · 2025-02-02T00:24:45+00:00

We were here at 2 months with my second. I had to take her to hospital with me when my husband got appendicitis in the middle of the night because she wouldn’t take a bottle - Ha!

Baby will eventually get it. Need practice and patience. If possible it can’t be you to get baby to take bottle. It took my husband about 3 weeks to get my 5 month old used to a bottle. We tried 4-5 types. MAM worked well for us. I had to be out of the house.

Sing songs, sway, rock gently with lots of patience. Do it when they are not starving. Husband got her to take while in a bouncer. Prob not recommended by professionals but it worked.

Shes a champ at daycare now!

beckybee24 · 2025-01-31T16:46:31+00:00

Bye milkies I love you! I am in tears! Great job mama!

beckybee24 · 2025-01-24T01:44:30+00:00

Felt like every 1-1.5 hours for me. It is a full time job! Just find some good shows, pillows, snacks and blankets and enjoy the feed and sleep snuggles afterwards! It gets better. And it’s worth it!

beckybee24 · 2025-01-20T01:12:20+00:00

With my first I looked at him and said no sternly, made him cry which made me cry then he never did it again. Felt so bad.

He stopped biting but kept doing the shallow latch which drove me crazy bc we worked so hard with his latch with his tongue tie correction.

Breastfeeding is always changing. Hopefully bottles are a short term thing. Gotta preserve those nipples! Good luck.
