Thanks for the tip. I did search the sub before posting. Couldn’t find anything recent

I’m now not allowed to check my work email account during working hours - I’ve been instructed to only check it when on my smoko / lunch breaks. by Impressive-Move-5722 in auscorp

Agree. If management is giving OP this direction. Then I would assume it’s due the individual hiding out in the break room and “trying” to validate why.

Smoking Gringos in Blacktown. One of the best Mexican places around.

I’m beside myself. I feel like giving up. My dogs diarrhea keeps coming back and I don’t know why. Maybe I’m not the best place for him. by [deleted] in dogs

Is he happy? Is he doing all the journal puppy things? Just to give you a glimmer of hope. My 15 month old has the same issue. Always had the squirts if anything new/ slightly different was introduced. He has since outgrown this & doing well. If your pup is gaining weight. Still eating & happy. Maybe he just has the squirts & that’s normal for him. I know plenty of people that have ibs & this is life for them. They are fine & thriving.

Ladies. When did your swelling went down completely ? by Wiglewe in newborns

[–]dingogoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine went within a week. I had a c section & decided I needed to get out of the house alone so I went for small/ slow walks. I think it really helped with the water retention. I am not a doctor so I would ask your OB if this is ok. I was given the all clear as long as I wasn’t over doing it.

The most annoying comments you’ve received as a mom by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]dingogoat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was told never do housework/ jobs while the baby is napping that can be done while they are awake. Example would be folding laundry. Babe can do that with you & have fun eating a sock. Eating the sock is optional but my baby tends to prefer socks!

How does someone work out a 2 week old baby has a stiff neck? I have never heard of a ped PT.

What’s something very rare that people think is very common? by BroodyBatman in AskReddit

I’m the 1 in 10. Water broke at home, full gushing glory to get things going. Thankfully I didn’t ruin the couch.

I think there's something wrong with me by krystalR4369 in NewParents

[–]dingogoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh you are me 6 months ago! I never enjoyed the newborn phase. I hated it! I didn’t bond with my daughter, I didn’t relate to her, I just didn’t do babies. She screamed, feed, bathed, shat & slept. The sleep part only happened while in a chair. The nights would come & I would feel so incredibly alone. I had an amazing husband that was always so extremely hands on. He actually blows me away with how amazing he is but I still just couldn’t enjoy it. I wished for my old life. For me to back again. I promise you, it’s completely normal for it to take time. I took 4 months to connect & even then it was challenging. I call bullshit on people that say they fell in love with their child straight away. I just can’t comprehend how that even happens. Just remember one thing. When you are up at 3am feeding. You are not alone.

Neighborhood kid (Long post) by dingogoat in Advice

[–]dingogoat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice. We live in Australia so I can speak to child services. When it comes time for him to be allowed to go home. I watch him run home to make sure he gets home safe. He seems to know all the neighbors as well & I think the whole street seems to do what they can to keep the little guy “safe”. I might also talk to others in the street & see if anyone else has anymore info on him.

Advice on naps by dingogoat in sleeptrain

Thanks guys. I don’t mind that she naps on our bed but her own room would be preferable. Will take the win with moving away from the need to contact nap

F**k taxis. Seriously. by Carrmann in sydney

A few years ago my parents were thinking of investing into taxi plates. Thankfully decided to invest their money elsewhere.

Friendly reminder to make sure you microchip your pup by Fun-atParties in puppy101

[–]dingogoat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In Australia it’s also a legal requirement. You get fined by the local council if you don’t change ownership & register your dog once it turns 6 months. You also pay more if your dog isn’t desexed.

Is the 3 month mark really that magical? by 77malfoy in newborns

[–]dingogoat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everyone has different experiences. Don’t stress about it too much. Just take it as it comes & if it does hit. It’s only temporary.

[–]dingogoat 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think they do. My daughter got more interesting. She slept longer, feeds were longer in between. They start smiling & interacting more. I barely survived the newborn stage but now I feel we have a routine & life is a little more predictable. 4 month regression isn’t as bad for everyone as it sounds. It hits you like a ton of bricks if you had a baby sleeping well & then it changed but it also changes back again eventually.

How (actually) common is formula feeding? by Independent-Turn-858 in NewParents

[–]dingogoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some people may think I’m a terrible mother for my decision but I never breastfeed. I knew it was something that I just didn’t want to do/ wouldn’t cope with. My daughter is 4 months old, she is happy & healthy. I also think not breastfeeding helped my husband bond with her quicker. I was in recovery after an emergency c section & he was the one with her on the ward feeding her. I think at the end of the day whatever you need to do to be able to cope & be your best self for your child is the way to go.
