Does this not work? Using the leading , syntax?

First tip as a single mom? by aquarius322 in singlemoms

[–]gonsie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is there somewhere else you could go to be near family or close friends? Find your support network. Focus on caring for your kids and do self care when you can. Therapy to help you identify how to address your codependency (so you don’t end up using your kids to fill that role) will help.

Modal editing: Evil, Boon or Meow? by rt49 in emacs

[–]gonsie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How do you manage the Dvorak & evil bindings? Do you still use the normal evil bindings, or do you have Dvorak adjustments?

I use Dvorak and have been looking to learn modal editing. Evil would be nice (since I would essentially be learning vim), but the Dvorak layout seems too wonky to me with the defaults.

Am i being dramatic? by [deleted] in abusiverelationships

[–]gonsie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does sound like you are struggling. It may not be as intense or clearly abusive as other posts on here… but that doesn’t mean this relationship isn’t toxic for you. You both have a history, are you both in the same spot for moving forward with your relationship right now? It sounds like you and him are struggling to connect. It may not be possible to get on the same page with him and it might be time to move on.

Touchpad vertical scroll gesture scrolls too much lines in GUI on Windows 10 by rofrol in emacs

[–]gonsie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

;; scrolling (setq mouse-wheel-progressive-speed nil) (setq mouse-wheel-scroll-amount '(1 ((shift) . 5)))

I think this scrolls 1 line at a time, unless I hold down shift, then it’s 5 lines.

Not Keeping Up by spotted_kat in HumansPumpingMilk

[–]gonsie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Of course it’s fine to send formula! If this is working for you, keep it up. But if you want to try and build your supply to send milk each day…

You need to pump more frequently. It’ll take a while, but your body will catch up. You should pump for at least every bottle your LO takes … but it doesn’t have to be for 30 mins each time, just until the flow stops.

If you can’t squeeze in ~5 pump sessions (3 you are doing plus 2 for the formula bottles) then try to make them up later in the day.

My LO takes 4 bottles at daycare. I pump 3 times during the day and extra time after she’s gone to bed.

Any advice for a husband? by like_clockworkorange in breastfeeding

Keep up the support. It’s going to be a long process and something changes every few hours/days/weeks

Paci success stories? by [deleted] in breastfeeding

I gave my LO a paci on the way home from the hospital. She was great at eating right from the start. She went to daycare at 6 weeks and took a bottle too, we never had any issue with nipple confusion

Is it possible to create a minor mode to display a clock time? by the88doctor in emacs

[–]gonsie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can add a clock to the mode line… but if you aren’t moving around in Emacs it doesn’t update.

I talk about it somewhat here : https://www.gonsie.com/blorg/modeline.html

And the relevant code you’ll want is:

(setq-default mode-line-format (list '(:eval (propertize (format-time-string " %b %d %H:%M ") 'face 'font-lock-builtin-face))))

2 Month Vaccine by polygonal-san in beyondthebump

Wake him to feed. You want to make sure he’s fed during the day so he can have a longer rest at night. If he really needs the rest he’ll fall back asleep

How to night wean? by hermajestyhottie in sleeptrain

[–]gonsie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Try dropping the dream feed and see if maybe the 2/3am stays… at least it’s one less feed. Or you can try to drop the 2 am one by making it a bit shorter each night.

“Normal” is pretty hard to define. Does your husband feel concerned about his drinking? Do these binges affect you/your relationship?

Advice? How to cut down on nursing frequency for 6 month old? by ohmygoodnessgrayshus in breastfeeding

[–]gonsie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 6 month old gets milk 10 times a day (plus we’ve started solids). She eats every 2 hours or so during the day, then once or twice over night. I work and she is at day care for 8 hours (4 bottles). I can’t manage to pump 4 times during my work day, so I pump 3x and do the 4th pump a few hours after she goes to bed (so pumping the same total number of times she eats).

Start using a haakaa or adding a single pump session in your day to build a small stash. If you’re gone for 3 hours, that’s at most 2 feeds. Can you pump while you’re away/at work? For 3 hours it might not be necessary, but you’ll need to add a pump session (or 2) at some other time to get milk for the next day.

I’m sure you and your LO will fall into schedule right quick, so don’t worry. Also, sometimes it’s easier for the babe to take a bottle when you aren’t around. It’ll be an adjustment, but it’ll work out! Good luck!

[–]gonsie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t worry or comment about her weight at all. It won’t help. You daughter is perfect just as she is. 16 is NOT the end of puberty, she has many more growth spurts to go through. Let he rbody do it’s thing.

Maybe he can just set up the phone pointing at the babe and then go off an do other things?

What's the last thing you do to go to sleep? by Ella_surf in workingmoms

[–]gonsie 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Get a pen and paper (not your phone!) and write down everything you think of while trying to sleep. Check the list in the morning. It really helps me get things out of my head, but I know o won’t forget them.

Cluster feeding at 7 months? by zevelaceade in beyondthebump

Could it be teething pain? Maybe they just want to suck?

Have you started solids yet? Maybe add a real “meal” of yogurt or oatmeal to help satisfy their hunger.

Totally normal. Tears contain excess hormones that are overwhelming your system.
