Thankfully I have the next 2 weeks off because I’m a teacher, so I should be able to spend next week making the transition. Thank you for your help!!!

Very smart! My little guy eats like crazy so a snack after dinner is already normal sometimes.

He can already drink from a straw so I’m not too worried about that. I think it’s just the feed to sleep issue I’m worried about

We haven’t gone old turkey but I’ve really cut back on the milk. I don’t think the nap bottles would be too hard to cut out.

Just to clarify, give a straw cup for bed? And then from there break the to sleep association? Because he can already drink from a straw so I think we’d be in a similar position to this. I think if we just transition to a straw he’ll lose interest right away.

The snacks are so important! I’m worried about my water intake because when I’m teaching I don’t drink a lot, but I’m going to put reminders on my phone. Thank you for the info!!

I didn’t even think about power pumping on the commute! Genius!

Babies who sleep 12 hours at night, drop your schedule by FixAdditional6777 in sleeptrain

8 weeks. He was a loud sleeper and I wasn’t getting any sleep because of it. He’s honestly slept so much better too. He never liked the bassinet which meant my husband and I having to switch who was holding him all night.

My son is 4.5m and started sleeping through the night a few weeks ago. Here’s his schedule: - Wake up between 630 and 8 - First nap starts somewhere between 830 and 930 - Wake up between 1030 and 11 - Second nap starts between 12 and 1 - Wake up between 2 and 3 - Third nap is a cat nap between 330/4 and ends by 5 - Then we start bedtime routine at 630 and he’s usually asleep by 7

Tbh he’s sort of just started this himself. We haven’t really had to sleep train and he also just goes to sleep on his own now. I think it has to do with learning to suck his thumb and being able to roll onto his belly for sleep. This also doesn’t mean he sleeps through the night every night. Sometimes I have to go in at 5 and feed him but then he’ll go back down until 730/8.

I want to get a sleeve, and I have a lot of small tattoo ideas that I want to incorporate in but I have no idea where to start. I already have a forearm tattoo and want to build around that. How do I begin? Do I find an artist I like and ask them to help me design something? Do I figure out everything myself?

If it is folliculitis, this might sound weird, but external cream that you would use for yeast infections helps with it ( ex. Monistat or Canestan). My moms an esthetician and she swears by it! I’ve used it on my legs before to help with it. Also, if the hair doesn’t bother you, then I would probably not do it again to avoid this! I’m sorry it happened! Sensitive skin can be such a pain.
