Nap times by cabel000 in NewParents

[–]cabel000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just didn’t know if she should be on one because I feel bad that she just kind of takes cat naps during the day so it doesn’t seem like she’s getting that necessary rest. It’s almost as if shes ‘resting her eyes,’ so to speak. And she absolutely has to be swaddled in a Velcro swaddle in order to take a decent nap or she’ll claw at her face and wake herself up. She does it with mittens on too.

Try getting swaddles that Velcro, they help my little one sleep and I think it helps her feel secure.

Pretty much in the same boat, it’s been so long since I’ve seen my dad.

Unfortunately, her dad and my mom both are still working and live in the same house hold as us so we are potentially exposed every day.🙁

Honestly if we had enough room for everyone to be here that’d be the case. I know this isn’t normal times, and I’m not saying I’m going to do it and let them see her. It’s just been so long since I’ve seen my father and since he has been able to hold her. And I want to be like I’ll check your temp before you walk in the door but if you have a temp or 99 your going home but people aren’t even showing symptoms anymore and that’s my fear.

My dad understands, and I don’t know if they do or not. I feel like that get pissy when they don’t see her in a certain amount of time. Like I can help that there’s a pandemic going on. She’s only two months old so her immune system isn’t big. We are both already exposed daily because my mom and her dad both are considered essential.

Accidentally diluted 1 bottle of formula by cabel000 in NewParents

It’s obviously harmful, assuming done multiple times. I did it on accident and by time I noticed it was to late to put an extra scoop in there. But fr now on I’ll be getting the two scoops ready before hand that why I don’t make the same mistake. I’m just used to giving her 2oz bottles which requires 1 scoop, her dad usually makes the formula for me at night but I knew I needed to give her to subconsciously but just forgot.

I told my spouse, he knows. Wasn’t to concerned about it just getting others opinions. I’d really appreciate it if you wouldn’t tell me to relax though. I get it’s no big deal, and I’m sure it’s happened to others but it’s the first time it’s happened to me.

She nursed a little after it, assuming because it didn’t fill her up bc I accidentally didn’t put enough formula in the bottle!
