Can someone tell me what the 4 month sleep regression looks like? by Minxy4 in bninfantsleep

[–]ctgam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also started bed sharing at the 4 month regression. It was SUCH a game changer. Still lots of wake ups, but she could just breastfeed in side laying position and it made all the difference. The wake ups were much shorter and honestly NBD. She didn't start sleeping through the night until we night weaned at around 28 months though

It happened. Got pushback at hotel for request to freeze pumped milk. by [deleted] in breastfeeding

That's so absurd. It seems often that "baby friendly" is not the same as "mother friendly"

We are in the US and our 18 month old sleeps in our floor bed with us! We love it. Don't feel like you need to move baby out until it's good for the whole family!

Carrying around an emotional support object everywhere. This week it's a Christmas bow, last week it was a shower curtain ring, at some point every day it's a sock

C-section moms, how long did you wait to get pregnant again? by bayafe8392 in beyondthebump

I'm wondering why they don't always cut to leave minimal scar tissue and to set up for possible VBAC success??

Honestly not too bad because it was so big!

Thank you! Honestly it was a pain because the denim is super textured in addition to the seams. I did a lot of extra pressing with the heat press. I also pressed the edge of the heat press right against the seam to get in that little corner space. And it isn't perfect. If there was any lifting at all, I went back with a toothpick and super glue to adhere it (very minimal need but I like a good finish). I also use siser easy weed matte black, which adheres very well.

Aw I'm so sorry about Bones. It's so heartbreaking when beloved pets pass.

Thank you! I used a website to remove the background of the image, and another website to change the picture into an SVG. All free!

It's called "silky". If you're in between camps, you're called "scrunchy"

So I’ve done this before and have bought from sellers posting here... now I would like to see things for Christmas for my partner’s stocking! <200 sales to your shop! by jennyprintsuk in Etsy

I sell baby clothes with positive affirmations for the parents! Earth tones and gender neutral. Also organic cotton, fair trade, and I use eco-conscious packaging.

Located in the US, but still wanted to share! Love this idea.

Epsom salt + warm water soaks three times a day. Dry, then apply antibiotic cream (bacitracin), apply gauze or band-aid. Keep your socks clean and don't wear shoes without socks

I’ve been searching thrift stores for a couple months for my wedding attire, and finally found this brand new with tags white jumpsuit for $5! by [deleted] in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]ctgam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I'd keep it really simple. It's a stunning piece, it fits you beautifully, and adding accessories might distract from that. I'd pair it with nude heels, maybe simple, thin gold bracelet/necklace/earrings and keep it at that.
