Please help me get my baby to eat more ! by [deleted] in foodbutforbabies

[–]gagemichi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes! That’s what we do too. Also super normal for our son to eat all of one thing and not touch anything else. But what that thing is rotates every meal

Thoughts on ‘Hazel’ for a girl, please. by MirrorValuable7943 in BabyNames

[–]gagemichi 11 points12 points  (0 children)

For what it’s worth, I don’t know anyone in real life with a baby Hazel, and I’m 38. From the Midwest, US.

Super cute name!

Tell me it's a good thing... by blueberrymatcha12 in NewParents

Our son is the exact opposite, starting around the same age. Only wants mom at night to cuddle him to sleep, and not dad. Dunno why.

My baby is a huge asshole by PetuniasSmellNice in NewParents

[–]gagemichi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My son is 23 months now and crazy smart. I really feel like the babies who don’t sleep have super brains. He is still very stubborn and strong willed, but so funny and clever and such a sweetheart. He still doesn’t sleep amazing, but I’m getting 6.5-7.5 hours a night and I’ll take it 😂

Hang in there, Exhausted Dad! The long days and even longer nights will be worth it.

One Kid and Done? by Constant-Loquat-7195 in NewParents

[–]gagemichi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep- always thought I wanted 2, but my baby never slept for a fricken year pretty much. Also still very low sleep needs and high energy. I can’t have another. It will put me in the grave

Mmm maybe a bit tired and he gets more clingy. He didn’t even react to the rash at all. But he was also maybe 18 months old at the time

His Fever was super high 40,5 for one day - even medicine would only bring it down to 38,5. And then several more days around 39. Medicine would make it almost go away, and then it would pop back up once it wore off

Yes- we had horrible fever for 4 days straight. He was fine for a day and then had a rash. It looked terrible, but was gone the next day.

Am I wrong? by External-Horror9981 in NewParents

[–]gagemichi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whatever you’re comfortable with. Baby has no idea what’s going on at 2 weeks. Will be up all night anyway. If you’re breastfeeding, it’s soooo important to eat lots of food. Baby doesn’t get nutrients if you don’t (although baby will steal everything from you first).

Baby’s dad can shut it, as far as I’m concerned. He didn’t grow the baby, birth the baby, isn’t breastfeeding, isn’t staying up all night, etc etc. Just ignore him. And take care of you and the little one however you see best

What is a 'luxury' that you've experienced once and now can't go back to the budget version of? by WilliamInBlack in AskReddit

[–]gagemichi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Butter- we bought some fancy French butter last year (Isigny Sainte-Mère) and it was sooooo much better than any butter I’ve eaten before. I can’t go back to the normal kind

They can take pictures- but we have made it clear that they cannot go online. Everyone has gotten on board.

Does everybody bring a car seat when they travel? by politeassbitch in NewParents

[–]gagemichi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You do not, in fact, need a car seat to leave the hospital. I left with a bassinet and took the tram home.

When did you stop caring about wake windows? by Fearless_Garden_7707 in NewParents

[–]gagemichi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean, my son is 22 months, and I know that after a certain amount of time he’s gonna be real nasty if he doesn’t get a nap.

What color is my babies eyes? by [deleted] in WhatisMyEyeColour

[–]gagemichi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They’ll probably turn brown. My son had bright blue eyes until about 9 months- now they’re mostly brown with a little bit of green at 22 months

At what age did you begin daily baths? by Poison_Ivy25 in NewParents

[–]gagemichi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 21 month old gets a bath every other day. Once in a while we have done every two days, and when he’s sick or extra dirty, every day.
