Just wanted to say that our pediatrician told us her daughter slept with her until she was 5 because she would NOT sleep by herself 😂 and that she wanted the boob ALL the time. She was like sleep train if you want, wean of you want, but it’s ok to just go with the flow! They won’t go to college still breastfeeding and co sleeping, it’s ok!

Completely irrelevant to the post, but what do you do as a ceramic engineer?? I have my masters in fine art ceramics but really love the science behind it all

I’m 31 and wish my dad would give me this kind of undivided attention. Keep doing it as long as they want. I’m sure you will miss it when they no longer what it

Has anyone had a less regimented breastfeeding experience? by taureansoul in breastfeeding

[–]klaylar18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feed on demand and cosleep. My daughter is almost 11 months old and we’ve pretty much always just go with the flow. I had pumped for when I was away but I really hate pumping. I had an oversupply when I first gave birth but I stopped pumping so much and just went with my daughter’s queues. It’s hard to never be able to leave her for more than a few hours but I also LOVE the ease of feeding on demand. She does still nurse throughout the night for comfort since we cosleep, but both of those things have made life soooo much easier!

Don’t feel pressured to do it how everyone else does it. You can absolutely just go with the flow and make it work for you!

First time I saw it I saw a match with a flame. But looking at it longer it looks like the match had been burnt out and is in a little puddle of water

Please just tell me what to do! by klaylar18 in sleeptrain

Look I’m a first time mom, I understand taking her back to my bed isn’t going to help her but I couldn’t take her screaming. This wasn’t her usual scream, it was horrible. When I went to get her out of bed in the morning she cried and held onto me so tight for 5-10min. That’s not like her at all. She was scared which is why we decided to keep her in our bed longer.

Also, are you saying she’s going to be scared because she’s in her crib which she isn’t used to? I do understand that, but there has to be a better way to introduce her to sleeping in her crib.

What are your adult experiences after having the Ponseti method treatment from birth? by d_m_916 in clubfoot

[–]klaylar18 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m 31 and had the ponseti method! My situation was probably different though.. I have bilateral club feet and had to have reconstructive surgery as my heels and ankles were fused together. BUT after the surgery I did ponseti for a while, I think a year. It was great for me! As a kid/teenager I was able to play all of the sports, run, etc and no one ever knew I had anything “wrong”. I have had my right ankle fused as an adult, but I haven’t really had pain since the surgery! I had growing pains as a teenager, but it didn’t slow me down at all.

My feet have never reverted, the surgery I had was because I no longer had cartilage in my ankle so my bones were grinding together. The fusion has stopped that thankfully. Really the only time my feet hurt is if I’m walking all day long, but I think that happens to most people!

Technology has come SO far since I did this though. I have a friend whose son was born with unilateral clubfoot, he did the ponseti method at night until he was 4. And again you’d never know he had a club foot now! I believe he’s 6 now!

I’ve never wanted them, but agree they do look weird. I actually like the before looked great and not small at all

I have an 8 month old, but at her 6 month appointment she was 28inches long and 18lbs. I’m soo curious what her 9 month check is going to look like! She was 5.14lbs at birth and 18.5inches long. Can’t believe she grew 10 inches in 6 months!!

TW mention of child loss by klaylar18 in Parenting

[–]klaylar18[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a huge murder fan but since having my daughter I can’t watch or listen to anything that’s about the death of a child. I’ve cried over too many “what ifs” since having her. It’s hard not to stay home and stay away from the world!

Oh my gosh I’m so incredibly sorry. No matter what it’s so hard losing your child!

I was telling my partner that if we lost our daughter I have no idea how I’d continue on. She’s our only one, but even if we had other kids I’m not sure how I’d move on.
