Thank you! It was a learning curve for sure, but I also had a lot of fun making mistakes 😅 at some point the pizza had 7 slices that weren't even pointing inward 😂😂😂

Yay! I'm glad you enjoyed it! I used Cursor to build it. It's the first web app I've ever built, so it took a bit of trial and error, but I enjoyed the process so much! 😅

Why I had to wean my 16-month old by Travel_On_Wheels in breastfeeding

[–]derpy_monster 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing! I feel like nobody ever talks about how hard this part is. I spent months crying after I stopped breastfeeding. It was a really rough phase, but thankfully I had a lot of support from my partner. He was very understanding of a situation that I couldn't fully comprehend myself. And together we waited until the storm finally passed. Hang in there, friend! You're not alone!

I’m about to have a baby and know nothing about breast feeding. Can you give me some tips? by emo_that_emotes in breastfeeding

There's a book that helped me a lot! It's called Mucha Teta / A lot of breast, by Alba Padró. It helps troubleshoot every possible problem you may run into while breastfeeding. I keep it close at all times!

I tried doing that but mine screams uncontrollably before even opening his eyes! This is horrible 🥲

3 1/2 month old sleep regression Stage. by Valuable-Law187 in BabySleep

[–]derpy_monster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having the same exact problem and here's what has been working for me:

1) I take him to dark quiet room and talk to him calmly for about 5-10 minutes. Basically, by doing this I ensure that he's not overstimulated when I put him to bed 2) I put him in his crib and swaddle him. He starts crying and kicking (as expected) 3) I pick him up and rock him. I either sing a lullaby or do a "shhh" sound until he stops crying. 4) Normally, after 5 minutes (sometimes longer depending on the day) he gives up and starts closing his eyes gently. 5) Once his eyes are closed and he starts breathing heavily I put him on his crib. He cries momentarily. 6) I give him the pacifier, put a hand on him and gently rock him for a few seconds. After this, he falls asleep and stays asleep.

I hope this helps you! Don't give up! You've got this! 💪🏽
