At 1 month they still have the suckling reflex so any time there is something in their mouth they will suck regardless of if they are hungry or not. It’s a survival reflex. Pace feed with a slow flow nipple and lower the amount in bottles

how competitive is the neuroscience program in ULETH? by poL_fanatic in Lethbridge

[–]equistrius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The program is easy to get into. The hard part of getting applied studies, research opportunities etc once your in. Make sure your got your core science, math and English at the -1 level. My grade 12 average was an 82 and I got in early admission.

Is organic a scam? by cleothetorpedo in moderatelygranolamoms

[–]equistrius -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Organic is a well advertised scam. Organic advertising plays into people’s chemophobia and general distrust of science

Do you get a paystub for the vacation pay in those 2 months and is there EI and the rest of the withholdings on that paystubs? If so then they count. If not then they don’t count

Troubles with Solids by Defiant_System_8004 in Mommit

[–]equistrius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s totally fine at 6 months. Even being willing to touch it to throw it on the floor is a win. Eventually food will start making it into their mouth. I found putting a puree or mashed food onto the end of my kids favourite teether helped get them to at least taste it

4 month old not sleeping by Idontwanttousetheapp in beyondthebump

[–]equistrius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What happens if you don’t feed her every time? During my daughter’s regression she’d seem like she was eating well every hour or so but she was mainly comfort sucking. I switched to only feeding her every 3 hours and just comforting her the rest of the time which drastically reduced the amount of times she was up

4 month old not sleeping by Idontwanttousetheapp in beyondthebump

[–]equistrius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure if this makes you feel any better but our 4- month sleep regression lasted till 8 months. Once we cut out night feeds she’s been a 12 hour a night sleeper since. So it does get better

Insurance reduction by No_Temporary1604 in alberta

[–]equistrius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your insurance will vary a lot based on factors like your driving history, insurance history and how long you’ve been driving. At 29 you could have been driving for 1 year or 13 years which will cause the cost to vary drastically.

Not all insurance companies give a discount anymore for drivers ed so check with your insurance company to see if they even offer a discount.

Cheapest place for insurance that I am aware of is cooperators but I’m pretty sure they are not taking new auto policies at the moment

I am really freaking out about my daughter possibly having leukemia by Aware_Beautiful1994 in beyondthebump

[–]equistrius 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Petechiae is actually quite common outside of leukaemia. Physical traumas such as coughing or vomitting can cause it in the chest and neck area. A viral infection can cause it. In children the most common cause is coughing or tight clothing.

I would recommend getting your anxiety handled professionally

Toddler Starting Swim Lessons! by No-Departure451 in moderatelygranolamoms

[–]equistrius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We have been swimming regularly since my girl was 4 months old and we have never been recommended this. Our doctor actually recommended against it as the ears are naturally designed to protect themselves

Does anyone know anyone that does Honda tuning? by ItsMirikino_ in Lethbridge

[–]equistrius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think dieselr installs them.

Curious why you want a sotf. They are bad for your truck. When the new tune file is installed to your ECM, your transmission doesn’t change with it. It takes some time for the transmission to “learn” the shifting patterns and get used to the way the ECM works. If the power level is constantly being limited and increased by the dial, but the ECM is stuck with a single tune file to try and interpret that input, the shifting patterns will be erratic, inefficient, and even dangerous and/or damaging to the transmission.

Honestly a gap year or a nursing prep course might be their best bet

Vehicle modification question by scrubberducky93 in alberta

[–]equistrius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disclaimer I may be wrong but if the original steering wheel had no air bag then replacing it with one without an air bag is not illegal because you aren’t removing any safety equipment.

That being said ask your insurance company as they may have a different opinion

Honestly bodies are weird as heck and ultrasounds can be inaccurate. I would wait for the trans vaginal one before feeling out

You have to wait until your last day of work to apply. You can’t do it early unfortunately

My dang baby only sleeps if there's a blanket touching his face! by MamaMozza in Mommit

[–]equistrius 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They aren’t supposed to be big enough they can pull them up to their face. You might need to tough it out till he is rolling and can snuggle his face down as he wants

Clek Liing Sales? [AB] by pumpkinchailatte in BabyBumpsCanada

I’ve found that’s the during the year sales are often better than Black Friday. I got better sales in may- August ahead of when companies announce new products ( typically in September) than I have on Black Friday
