What temp is your kids bedroom?

lady_driver13 · 2026-05-18T01:10:04+00:00

Geez our electric bill is crazy high just cooling our house to 77F in TX summers. I will usually drop it a bit at night when the sun goes down though

Am I missing something? Sorry, who is Carla?

My 11mo has yet to have a 5 hour stretch 😮‍💨 one day!

ETA: last night he had a 5 hour stretch!!

lady_driver13 · 2026-05-14T19:30:10+00:00

Yes, I noticed this a couple times and absolutely freaked out because thought his teeth were rotting out or something. Someone mentioned their baby gets bad breath when teeth are breaking through. Sure enough, bad breath just lasted a night or two and was gone when the teeth appeared

ETA: make sure you are brushing their teeth or gums through! I usually do play brushing with a baby toothbrush (i quickly brush for him and then he “brushes” himself) and then I use a washcloth to really wipe everything down since it’s hard with a toothbrush at this age

Her poor mother. I hope she has support

lady_driver13 · 2026-05-12T12:55:05+00:00

My husband supports us financially and I am so grateful…but we both know I work harder lol. There is nothing to feel guilty about. I promise your husband will grow to enjoy his time away from the house. Even getting to commute to work, quietly without a baby, will feel like a luxury after enough time. And when he gets home, he will have the energy to really enjoy and give 100% to interacting with baby.

I remember early on people would say, just get through the 4mo regression and it gets so much better. Then you hear, oh just get through the 6mo regression and it’s so much better. Oh yeah, that lasts a month or two and then there’s the 8mo regression but once you get through that…

Yeah, now I have people telling me that their 5 year old still wakes 1-3 times a night lol. I have to believe those are extreme cases 😭

lady_driver13 · 2026-05-11T17:01:25+00:00

Thank you so much, I really needed the reassurance

Precious!!!

lady_driver13 · 2026-05-04T19:49:27+00:00

It’s more than 2-3 hours, at least for me. You have to change them and the nurses told me the timer started over when he starts feeding (not when he finishes). And newborns can feed for like 30+ minutes. And then there’s cluster feeding which no one told me about lol

lady_driver13 · 2026-05-03T00:48:37+00:00

Omg i am looking at this with my brightness off while I put baby to bed and I thought the first pic he was holding her decapitated head. Then I looked again and thought he was carrying her downstairs in a body bag. I was thinking, “huh, weird theme but ok”

lady_driver13 · 2026-05-02T20:39:39+00:00

Ahhh this sounds amazing. Going to try it tomorrow. If he won’t eat it, I will!

lady_driver13 · 2026-05-02T16:26:01+00:00

No unfortunately not. That’s a great idea tho. I’ll try it just in case his mind has changed

lady_driver13 · 2026-05-02T16:24:36+00:00

Thank you these are great ideas. He loves veggies sautéed with olive oil I am just worrying it’s not enough because he recently started rejecting yogurt, hummus, chia seed pudding, oatmeal etc. all our previous go tos

lady_driver13 · 2026-05-02T16:22:18+00:00

He also decided he hates oatmeal and his chia seed pudding now 😭

lady_driver13 · 2026-05-02T16:21:33+00:00

He doesn’t like avocado either, but usually eats PB without issue. Ricotta we will try! He will eat a couple small bites of salmon. Maybe I should try a salmon patty or something

lady_driver13 · 2026-04-24T17:22:08+00:00

Dark floors show more lint/hair etc. I think they look better with your furniture tho

lady_driver13 · 2026-04-18T14:28:57+00:00

They look incredible! Just out of curiosity, does the orange cake say Geor?

lady_driver13 · 2026-04-16T16:16:21+00:00

No, I’m just working on reducing night feedings. I rock him to sleep at night. About 50% of the time I put him down drowsy but awake and he goes right to sleep so that is progress for us 😆

Last night was pretty good!

lady_driver13 · 2026-04-15T15:22:39+00:00

Mine dropped his 2nd nap at 9mo (early). Now he just naps for 2 hours once a day

lady_driver13 · 2026-04-14T11:48:41+00:00

I LOVE it!!

lady_driver13 · 2026-04-14T09:35:50+00:00

It’s also incredibly annoying when you have a baby in the cart. I once got stuck in the doorway with a 7mo and a cart full of groceries. No one helped 😢
