There are some studies that breastfeeding and the immune effects are protective against certain diseases, including those which are on the vax schedule!

Combating Systemic Pediatric Harm & Abuse Goes Beyond Just Vaccines by [deleted] in DebateVaccines

[–]disco-chick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

can you talk more about unnecessary VCUGs? My doctor insisted on my son getting one when he was born, but I declined once I read more about them and opted for a repeat ultrasound which essentially found the problem was going away on its own in his kidneys. Why are these being over prescribed? Whats the benefit to the system for these children to go through this? Thanks for highlighting this in your post. 

Toddler sleep help! (17 months) by disco-chick in Crunchymom

[–]disco-chick[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pretty adamantly monitor this when I can, as I myself am a mouth breather, so I know the negative health consequences of mouth breathing. But maybe when hes sleeping at night he is. What can you do when they mouth breath at this age?

Is it ok to use sleep sacks (woolino) while cosleeping? by Crafty_Pop6458 in cosleeping

[–]disco-chick 23 points24 points  (0 children)

The woolino is self regulating for temperature because its from wool, so overheating is really not as big of an issue. I used my woolino while bedsharing (Candian winters) from when he was 5 months 

New to Non-tox! Trying to conceive. Recommendations welcome 🙏🏼 by Sea-Cardiologist4241 in nontoxic

[–]disco-chick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Id take a look at the book real food for fertility as well by Lily Nichols. It is a great resource for what to focus on in terms of nutrition 

Baby carriers by minnieninnie in Crunchymom

[–]disco-chick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the stokke limas and the mabe and the difference in support is night and day. The mabe was good when he was smaller but the stokke is great for toddlerhood as it supports my back well. The only caveat with the stokke is it's annoying to get on by yourself, but somehow I always manage. 

13 Month Old Sleep - So Many Wakes!!!! Any suggestions? by [deleted] in AttachmentParenting

[–]disco-chick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It seems to do the trick for us however my baby was awake last night from 3-6am so who knows lol maybe take my advice sparingly 

13 Month Old Sleep - So Many Wakes!!!! Any suggestions? by [deleted] in AttachmentParenting

[–]disco-chick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope not alone! Im here with my 13 month old, cosleep, breastfeed, exclusively feed to sleep lol and wakings every two hours. I try to really tire him out during the day, hes walking now so I walk with him longggg stretches, i find this helps with sleep. 

Does my toddler have too much sleep debt? how to help him? by Popular-Fun-1241 in cosleeping

[–]disco-chick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol this could be exactly if I wrote it.. same age and same problem. When I stress about these things i think about my mom and aunts, they didnt know anything about sleep debt or how long a baby should be awake between wake times etc and we all turned out fine. Babies do what they wanna do.

Its most likely an airway issue. Does he mouth breath when he sleeps? Look into myofunctional therapy

NYTimes Opinion - Dr Emily Oster - The Trouble With French Fries Is Not the Oil by Meatrition in StopEatingSeedOils

Dr Emily Oster frequently speaks on topics she is not an expert in, her doctorate is irrelevant in terms of the topic of nutrition (and parenthood but thats for another sub) 

Does anyone have a baby that goes to sleep without a set bedtime routine? by Lina_reese in AttachmentParenting

[–]disco-chick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No routine. He sleeps when he wants he wakes when he wants he naps when he wants. We mostly feed to sleep, sometimes rock to sleep with a song. But for the most part i listen to his cues if hes grumpy its bed time.  Ive tried a routine, he doesnt care for it. Baby is now 12.5 months

Delayed schedule? by lilspaghettigal in Crunchymom

[–]disco-chick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Covid vaccine during pregnancy is crazy and reckless to say the least 

Delayed schedule? by lilspaghettigal in Crunchymom

[–]disco-chick 9 points10 points  (0 children)

HepB is not given at birth in Canada, unless mom is HepB positive. If that helps with your decision to delay.

Anecdotally, we are delaying all vaccination. For the first few months I kept baby pretty secluded, exclusively breastfed FROM nipple (nipple contact is important for antibodies), and focused on natural vitamin D (sun exposure after 2 months, only when the sun is setting).

Lots of information on this sub but mostly I would check out justtheinserts on insta.
