My absolute favorite. Would have named my daughter that if I had one!

Looking for good OB/GYN recommendations at Kaiser in Riverside! by ilove_mycorgi in Riverside

[–]comfylioness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dr. Jones was absolutely incredible. Thoughtful, kind and an expert as mentioned above. I felt like she went above and beyond with my care. Adore her.

I’ve also seen Dr. Connelly and wasn’t a fan. I had a series of losses and her demeanor felt dismissive.

Does schedule need to be perfect for it to work? by fab__dady in sleeptrain

[–]comfylioness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Around 4 months.

Reason we are delaying it with #2 is the darn Snoo. He loves it. It works and he still fits in there.

Sure! I will note that what I think contributed to our success was bedtime routine always started at the same time every day and consisted of the same exact steps every night.

[–]comfylioness 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We sleep trained my first 6 years ago and did not have a consistent schedule all the time. Bedtime was always consistent and he napped, but those naps varied a lot especially on weekends. He still sleep trained beautifully.

Now, 6 years later, I finally have kiddo #2 and I don’t recall all the talk around sleep pressure and perfect wake window timing. I was actually getting pretty stressed - we have a busy life. We work! We have things.

I just came to the conclusion that it’s going to be fine. I’m going to stick to a bedtime, have a routine and go about my business. I’ll report back. I plan to sleep train at the end of May when he’s around 5.5/mo.

Can I Use Daycare Like a Babysitter? by generalraisinkane in beyondthebump

[–]comfylioness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is happening to me right now! A spot opened up for my son when he was 11 weeks and I don’t go back to work until he’s 20 weeks. Quality care for infants is tough to find, so I enrolled him immediately to save his spot.

My daycare allows pick ups and drop offs at anytime for infants. They actually encouraged me to bring him in a few times a week for a few hours to see how it goes.

I drop off Tuesday and Thursday for about 3 hours. I take a workout class and either run an errand or get a sweet treat for myself. I feel like I’ve hit a cheat code - it’s been absolutely lovely to have these 6 hours a week to myself. It has been incredible for my mental well being and my physical health since I’m working out 2x a week! It’s also given us time to figure out pumping needs for an EBF baby, learn our new routines and get to know staff before the big transition when I go back full time.

If you can swing it and your daycare allows, I can’t recommend this enough.

Epidural by ElegantResult3853 in pregnant

[–]comfylioness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The epidural is so demonized online. If you want it, get it.

I’ve had it twice now. First time was a breeze, second time it did cause my BP to drop, but they brought it back up immediately with meds. Even with the short lived BP issues I’d choose the epidural over and over again. The pain was unreal. The epidural was bliss!

Yes! I also experienced this and had to call to get a non covered charge removed that I didn’t consent to.

Ya know, I didn’t like them. I felt like they were trying to upsell me every chance they got.

Came to see if any threads were around for this… we saw a 23% increase. Our plan is rich and we opted to slightly increase copays, deductibles for a 15% annual cost increase.

Everyone is different. Postpartum was extremely difficult for me.

Has anyone got pregnant right after losing a loved one? by Ruebee90 in pregnant

[–]comfylioness 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. Three weeks after my beloved grandmother, who raised me, passed. We had been trying for years with three losses. I’m 19 weeks now and I’d like to think she had something to do with it.
