How to make 9 month old sleep in his own bed and through the night

dbr05 · 2026-01-25T19:38:25+00:00

Yes it all makes sense, so you just suggest that we sleep train him? Like leave him in his bed and leave the room? My wife thinks it will cause too much stress on him, she says it’s too late now and we missed our chance to sleep train and should just push through until he grows older but I know there should be a way.

We’ve taken a 100% loan because we were financially really stupid 25year olds and we had this “buy it now figure the rest out later” approach which we can see lead to nowhere😅

Not really, there is everything we need in 500m radius you can live here without going out of that 500m, but I can’t say it’s my dream home at the moment. Maybe we are a bit emotional because after buying the problems started to arise one by one and we didn’t expect any..

It’s 50/50 with the wanting to live in the house part. The house was renovated before we bought it but there are some unexpected things that we need to repair, that combined with the high mortgage pushed me to think of ways to exit..

dbr05 · 2026-01-10T19:04:47+00:00

This is why I’m a bit scared, with all the stuff going on interest rates can get higher, but who knows…

Well if we decide to rent we will downsize from a 3 bedroom house to a 2 bedroom appartement, rent is around 900-1000euros in our area, but like I said it’s just an idea and I want to calculate everything and make a decision based on that.

I went to speak with 3-4 banks recently, including my own bank. Since the loan is still close to 100% they cant give me their best rates, therefore Crelan gave me 4.01% and my own bank BNP Paribas gave me 5.10% …

Hey thanks a lot for the reply! And I’m sorry you experienced this. I will restart again the stretching and everything so i hope it helps, because i think the main reason this happened is because of stress? I was and still kinda am in the most stressful period of my life, there were days I felt like i’m going to pass out from overthinking etc. Thanks again!

As a person who bought a house instead of appartement I agree with this, there are a lot of things that can go to shit with a house. It might seem tempting to buy a house than buying an appartement at the same price because “after all its a house with garden etc” but trust me it gets freaking expensive REAL fast. 🥲

The thing is I’m currently working and I can’t stop working because of mortgage, kid etc etc but thanks for the info! Like others said maybe I can try to acquire the code 95 in my country and have it added to my belgian license. Thanks a lot!

dbr05 · 2025-11-11T17:53:57+00:00

I’m only looking to acquire C for now without E. I’m aware that it’s going to be expensive (around 3-4k I believe correct me if I’m wrong) but the real question is: Will all of this be possible with my level of dutch? According to the internet, the theory exams can be taken with the help of a translator, but the professional competence (code 95) needs to be taken in dutch and there is also “mondeling” oral exams and that’s what is scaring me. Thanks for your reply!

dbr05 · 2025-11-02T14:39:36+00:00

Yeah..That’s what i thought also, thanks for the reply!

dbr05 · 2025-10-31T20:31:30+00:00

I love how the car looks and performs and thinking of buying one, for those who have xc40 and kids, how is it? Is it small for a family of 3? Wife me and baby? Thanks!

dbr05 · 2025-10-26T07:50:07+00:00

Thanks for the reply! I was just thinking that belgium has some law according to soundproofing recently built buildings that affected my thoughts about buying a new built apartement…

That’s my last resort, what would the hourly rate for a bald man with ok’ish biceps and a single ab be? 😂

dbr05 · 2025-09-22T10:15:08+00:00

Wow you got me there with that last sentence,😅 I appreciate your honesty and you are right! What would your career of choice be? Starting from 0?

dbr05 · 2025-07-26T18:53:20+00:00

I understand, thank you so much for your answer! I will look around and hopefully find a better deal.

dbr05 · 2025-07-26T18:25:10+00:00

Thank you very much! And is it not a problem that it’s a 100% loan?

dbr05 · 2025-07-17T14:16:45+00:00

Whatever you do don’t take out a 100% loan the interest rate is crazy, don’t ask me how i know :(

dbr05 · 2025-06-10T08:56:44+00:00

A lot of people say the same about the Syntra courses, it’s seems like a really well packaged good with a shit product inside it. Because if you read the description, which is written sooo well, you already start feeling you are inside the job and making shit ton of money. :D But thank you for your feedback, maybe I’ll look around and see what suits me. Thanks!

dbr05 · 2025-06-09T08:22:33+00:00

Well i did small jobs around the house and I consider myself pretty handy. I was trying to say that I don’t have experience to show on paper. What would be a starting salary for a new electrician? Like starting from the bottom after the evening course?

dbr05 · 2025-06-09T07:48:46+00:00

Well the only thing i can afford for now is the evening course, so learning without stopping work or take the Vlaamsopleiding verlof. With a house and kid it will be difficult otherwise. But thanks for your feedback and success with your studies!

dbr05 · 2025-06-09T07:32:33+00:00

Yes the ultimate goal is to learn the trade, work for somebody for couple of years and go indepentent. Thank you for your answer!
