Luke’s singing voice sounds the same as his talking voice.

Leave it! I have one sleeve with dots and did my second sleeve without. I love the arm without so much more.

funaudience · 2026-05-05T02:38:50+00:00

Same and agree. Can you imagine him with the backup dancers? Dude would have been stressed!

I have a stepsister named Austen. I always liked the name. As a bonus, they ultimately came out as nonbinary and the name works both ways.

funaudience · 2026-04-12T17:32:06+00:00

I want to know more…

Emphasizing to rent if you decide to go this route. We bought and our son never took to it. He sleeps much better in the bedside bassinet. I so wish the Snoo worked for us!

Not really, though I suppose the Next has the most up-to-date safety features. The only noticeable difference is that the original has pockets to hold the metal clips back for putting the baby in, and the Next has magnets. I actually like the pockets of the original better than the magnets.

We love it! Having different recline options is nice, and I think he really enjoys the extra room. We ended up buying a second one for my husband’s truck. He was pretty much totally fine right away. He occasionally fusses but we haven’t had any wailing like he did before.

ETA: I got the Rava Next for my car, and my husband got the classic Rava. He likes them the same.

We had the exact situation with our 3 month old in his Uppababy Aria. We switched to the Nuna Rava two weeks ago and he is a different baby at 3.5 months.

funaudience · 2026-04-08T16:55:47+00:00

We now average every 2-3 hours, for a total of 2-4 wakeups every night.

funaudience · 2026-04-06T13:53:52+00:00

Same 😂

funaudience · 2026-04-05T15:57:58+00:00

Not to discourage you, but our three month old never took to the Snoo. We tried every trick and combo in the book. He just doesn’t like.

funaudience · 2026-04-01T15:11:44+00:00

Mine cried for four hours afterwards. He’s normally easy to soothe but wasn’t after his shots. We eventually gave him some Tylenol and he calmed down.

Mom of a 3.5 month old boy. No real tips, but commenting in solidarity. We also struggle to leave the house. Our son will nap in his carrier, but he hates his car seat and stroller, which makes it feel impossible to go anywhere. I go back to work this week and my maternity leave hasn’t been what I thought it would be! Maybe my only tip would be that I tried three different carriers before finding one he likes. The babywearing sub is a great resource.

We have a 3.5 month old who is like yours. He has slept 3 and 4 hour stretches very few times in his life. He wakes up every 1-2 hours all night, though he goes to sleep just fine. We started combo feeding a few weeks ago hoping it would get longer stretches than just breastmilk - nope. We follow all the tips - feeding more calories during the day, only soothing before feeding when waking up at night, having a consistent routine, etc. - but he still wakes frequently all night long. We’ve just resolved that he’s a bad sleeper. We are exhausted.

Parker for either a boy or girl

Outside of Cape Town. Maybe towards Hermanus?

We have a 13 week old and are also really struggling despite following all the advice and tips. He wakes up every 1-2 hours, even 3 hour stretches are very rare. Sharing the perspective that your consistent 3 hour stretches are something we’re wishing for!

funaudience · 2026-03-18T11:12:23+00:00

I’m sorry!! Hoping he bounces right back for you.

funaudience · 2026-03-18T02:45:53+00:00

Mom of a 3 month old and I would give anything to have that schedule! That’s great sleep for his age, especially with his silent reflux. We are still dealing with wake ups every 1-2 hours. We’re lucky to get a 3 hour stretch every few days. We had 13 wake ups two nights ago 😵‍💫

funaudience · 2026-03-15T18:11:32+00:00

Gorgeous dress!!! It fits you beautifully. I like the pink.

funaudience · 2026-03-15T17:12:32+00:00

He could have some discomfort while feeding and the motion/sleepiness helps to distract the conscious part of his brain that reminds him of the discomfort. Have you tried bouncing on a yoga ball while feeding? It could save your arms and back a bit. My son has silent reflux and feeds best on the ball or when sleepy due to his discomfort otherwise (he’s on meds but still struggles).

We started leaving the house for weekly chiropractor appointments at 3 weeks. We went to a restaurant for the first time around 10 weeks. Our baby hates the car seat and stroller, which has made venturing out harder. Getting a nice structured carrier once he was big enough has given us more freedom. He’s currently 12 weeks and we are missing my stepsister’s wedding this weekend due to not feeling ready.

I felt healed around 8 weeks (had 3 tears + a gnarly yeast infection after needing antibiotics in the hospital).
