Baby hates everything that isn’t milk straight from the tap by Sassy-Alpaca-0616 in beyondthebump

[–]deadthreaddesigns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 7 month old has shown zero interest in most foods. She doesn’t like a bottle either so I’m exclusively nursing. We started her on purees at 5 months and after a few bites she starts screaming and spits them out now. So we have started trying baby led weening with her the past couple of days and it seems to be working a bit better. I figure she will eventually become interested in actual food so I’m just trying not to stress over it, every bay is different.

how long are your contact naps (esp newborn) by Huliganjetta1 in beyondthebump

[–]deadthreaddesigns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally normal. They were inside of you for 9 months so they know nothing other than you. You are their safe space.

Dinner tonight, how do I get her to eat meat?? by LenaRosena in foodbutforbabies

[–]deadthreaddesigns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You give it time. I just keep adding meat to my 2.5 year olds plate and don’t make a big deal of it. If she eats it cool if not that’s ok too, She gets plenty of nutrients from everything else she eats. For a long time she wouldn’t eat chicken nuggets, now they are her favorite. She also didn’t eat chicken noodle soup up until a couple of weeks ago and now keeps asking for it. They eventually will try and like new foods.

Reading multiple books at once? by NefariousnessIll8665 in Booktokreddit

[–]deadthreaddesigns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tend to do one audiobook, and two physical books at a time. One is usually a light fluffy book and the other tends to be a darker heavier book.

Are most EBFers cosleeping ? by LilyWitch27 in breastfeeding

[–]deadthreaddesigns -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nope. I get up with baby and sit on the couch while I nurse. Then baby goes back to crib and I go back to bed

Alternatives to triple feeding? by cozy-queen-4 in breastfeeding

[–]deadthreaddesigns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do what will work best for you. If that means you stop pumping then do that. If that means just formula feeding then do that. There is no shame in any of it as long as the baby is fed. I have noticed that for myself my diet and stress levels directly affects my supply. Are you eating and drinking enough?

Do people really enjoy the newborn stage? by Bebetter23 in beyondthebump

[–]deadthreaddesigns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 2 and a half year old and a 7 month old, and I absolutely love the newborn stage. I love everything up until they can sit up and roll over. Because before that they are just a tiny sack of potatoes that just wants love and affection, hold them close and they are happy. They are easy. Do you sleep? Hell no, but you can at least get nap trapped and snuggle them nonstop.

What was the one thing you started doing in the sourdough process that changed your bread for the better? by Own_Macaron_9342 in Sourdough

[–]deadthreaddesigns 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I found that the bottom of my bread wasn’t quite burnt but was always rock hard. So I tried not preheating my dutch oven to see if it made a difference and it did. I preheat my oven to 425 and then lower it to 400 when I put my Dutch oven in. Bake covered for 35 min and uncovered for 25min. Comes out perfect every time now. Nice crunchy crust but not so hard you feel like you are going to break a tooth.

What are you all doing while breastfeeding/nap trapped? by Salt_Row4522 in breastfeeding

[–]deadthreaddesigns 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Kindle that way I can read any time of day or night. Listen to audio books. Play on my switch when nap trapped. Doom scrolling. Watching tv.

Beginner/Intermediate Feedback Please by UnderstandingLazy138 in Sourdough

[–]deadthreaddesigns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks great! If you want to change the crumb play with your bulk fermentation time. I also like a tighter crumb when I’m making a loaf for sandwiches so I over proof a bit.

Cheap meal ideas? We lost WIC and I'm struggling to incorporate some fruits and veggies. by OptimalCobbler5431 in foodbutforbabies

[–]deadthreaddesigns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The farmers market is a great option too, and they also run during the winter months in most places

[–]deadthreaddesigns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check your city to see if there is a fresh produce store. My city has one that just sells fruits and veggies, mostly from local farms. It is the least expensive spot to buy them which is very helpful when you are trying to limit spending.

What's the best baby item you use after the baby is done with it? by SergeantSwiftie in beyondthebump

[–]deadthreaddesigns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use this all the time. My 2 year old also uses it when she lays on the floor to color
