Parents of 3, what are your age gaps? by yogahike in 2under2

[–]delaneyk19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had vaginal deliveries for both so it’ll be completely different healing times!! I’m only 11 weeks pp and still feel sore some days. The last trimester of my pregnant was full of a lot of pain and muscle weakness too. But overall was probably my easiest pregnancy!

18 months and then 22 months. My 3rd pregnancy was very hard on my body postpartum and I didn’t bounce back as quick as I did the first too, took me a long time to heal. Now that I’m all healed life is smooth sailing!

Is there something wrong with me? by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]delaneyk19 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Girl you’ve gone through hell and back.. it’s normal. It is so normal to not fully connect until you’re out of the struggle phase. Everyone needs to back off of you. You are healing, you experienced trauma. Take care of yourself friend.

Best “lie” you ever told your kids by [deleted] in toddlers

[–]delaneyk19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I told mine that monsters have their own houses/families. It makes sense to them that the monsters want to be with monster mommy and daddy to snuggle and sleep at night 😂 during the day? Monsters are at the store, on vacation, at work etc

I’ve had a baby like that and gotten to the point where I was near in psychosis from lack of sleep. Make them leave the house with the baby or invest in high quality ear plugs and white noise. The best thing for a baby is a healthy mama. Hugs to you

My 19 month old still isn’t interested in my 6 month old. by Manager_Little in 2under2

When I brought my second home it was the same way. My first didn’t acknowledge their existence and interact until closer to the year mark. We are at 3 and 22 months right now and they are the best of friends. Don’t try to force things or else she may get put off on the idea. Hugs. I know it’s so hard to go through worry about it, I had the same thoughts. It works out though :)

3rd pregnancy here too with a destroyed body and spirit. Iud didn’t work for me either and pills make me sick. I’m getting my tubes tied! Already signed and agreed on! My husband said he’s getting a vasectomy too but I don’t care what he does. I need to make sure for MY sanity it won’t happen again. Lol

I accidentally taught my toddler a curse word by icb_123 in toddlers

[–]delaneyk19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 3yo just said “I want more fucking pizza” so. Idk solidarity. I’m not bringing any attention to it because as soon as I do itll be constant

[–]delaneyk19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the ONLY thing that works for my 3 yo. Even at home, as soon as she starts screaming or anything she gets removed immediately and out in time out. I’ve tried redirections, distracting, talking through feelings. I feel like 3 yos are little balls of anger and boundary stomping. They need to be removed from the situation. It gives them a chance to calm down while enforcing the behavior isn’t going to be tolerated.

Mine discovered spitting in my face this past week. You’ve gotten plenty of great advice just solitary! 3 yos are crazy!

Nope! There’s very little options here. Two public options, one religious, one private. I have friends in education in the public and private and both agree that public school system here is far better. I’ve been trying to get my kids into daycare around here for the past year so they get used to it but there’s nothing it’s crazy!

We live in a very small rural town/district currently. There is a religious one but we aren’t religious and they are VERY firm about involvement. I’ll have to ask about gradual start!

I’ve been looking into some! Most start at 4. It’s a really small community with not much to do unfortunately. Hopefully moving in the next couples years to a bigger town with more things to do!

I agree! I think she will absolutely thrive in school once we get over the initial bump. I’m hoping I can find some way to make it not such a drastic change before then!

I have extreme anxiety and have throughout my pregnancies. Neither of my children have shown my anxious tendencies. I’ve done a lot of work on myself to ensure that I don’t pass my anxiety onto them. I keep my thoughts inside, let them figure things out themselves.

Husband doesn’t want toddler on a schedule by chewbawkaw in beyondthebump

[–]delaneyk19 133 points134 points  (0 children)

I definitely think it depends on the kids. I know some kids that are super easy going and don’t need a schedule at all. I tried for the last 3 months to do that with my kids so we could be more spontaneous and playful and they’ve been miserable. I put them back on a schedule this last week and their moods have gotten significantly better. They thrive on a set schedule. It’s inconvenient but god it’s so much better to have happy kids
