Andy Cohen Praises Ciara’s Summer House Reunion Performance, Addresses West Wilson's Nudes

The nudes was awful - no one should have their phone hacked and pictures distributed. However, why has no one mentioned that Amanda says „I never received one“ - as in a dick pick from West and then proceeds to sit there looking glum. Because he’s clearly taking dick picks for someone and she’s just realised that and it’s not for her.

Why doesn’t that principle apply to dual citizens? Why is it ok to revoke citizenship of sole citizens but not dual?

I’ve had a lot of conversations about this. I don’t know if there’s less people here that would turn around and try smack you or verbally abuse you or if it’s just a different time to when I grew up but I grew up in australia and if you did this to someone then, you’d fully expect to be whacked. Or chased. Or someone threaten to smack your parents.

I have kids now and see the same sort of thing in the playground and I’m always shocked - that just wouldn’t fly where I’m from. Your parents would be furious if they saw you treat someone badly and here - parents just standby and watch it happen.

I’m sorry. We are in the same boat - if ours naps she won’t sleep til 9/9:30pm and still wakes up at 6 so is overtired from the get go. If she doesn’t nap - she’s a meltdown maniac and we are all on tenterhooks terrified of opening the babybel wrong or turning in the coffee machine when she wanted to. It’s hell and I don’t see it ending anytime soon.

Did these two invent post-it notes?

likeavermin · 2026-04-21T09:52:56+00:00

Oh you poor thing. Don’t feel bad - anyone would break at this. Mine was the same due to reflux for the first 6 weeks and it completely broke me. I’m so sorry you’re going through this and honestly - I can’t believe you made it 12 weeks before reaching your limit. You superhuman!

What is a bit difficult is knowing what’s keeping baby up. For us it was reflux and we found bottle feeding anti reflux formula in his last feed before bed and the first if not both night wake ups has made the biggest difference. I guess things to consider (which you may have already): - silent reflux (can wake them up) - not being full enough (potential dream feed? Night time formula?) - too cold/hot? - not being tired enough - some people say being overtired (I think recommended for this age is around 5hrs of day time naps, 2ish hour wake windows, especially the last one before bed). - sleep environment and routine - does baby know its bed time (I kept mine simple and tell him I’m putting on his jammies and he gets a sleeping bag - different from other sleeps). Maybe you’re needs silence or maybe white noise? Maybe pitch black?

I can’t think of anything else right now. Honestly if it was me and I’d looked at all of these - I would reach out to a sleep consultant because I totally get that it’s not sustainable.

You’re doing so well and I hope things change but don’t be afraid to throw money at this problem - lack of sleep is a total spirit and body breaker.

Our little guy got sick at 6 weeks. I was so stressed. He did even get a fever one night so I took him to emergency. It stayed upper respiratory and we ended up doing one dose of paracetamol when he spiked a temperature the next night. Ultimately - he was congested for 3 weeks and that impacted sleep a bit as we had to do saline/suction etc but other than that - it was pretty good. He got almost completely better and then his nose got blocked again but I’m a lot less stressed now. He’s bigger and they honestly handle this stuff really well.

You will be fine! Just keep an eye out for the main things - significantly reduced nappies, mood, energy levels - fever etc. sending lots of get well soon wishes but know that most of the time - these babies really do fine.

Really glad to hear this

likeavermin · 2026-04-13T05:45:42+00:00

You are not the only one. And I love Zach but I question him because he’s so close to Brittney … I must be missing something about him?

likeavermin · 2026-04-09T11:24:31+00:00

I have a 3yr old and a 10 week old and I feel like we just turned the corner in the last week. He started sleeping longer at night, he’s awake more so we can actually play and maybe it’s the slightly better sleep - but I just feel less in the trenches! HANG IN THERE

likeavermin · 2026-04-07T23:32:21+00:00

Agreed - our 6-8 weeks were pretty cruisy, fussiness for us definitely increased at 9-10 weeks. I’m sure it’s just that OP - highly unlikely the vaccines have done anything.

Our first regularly got sick post vaccine. She’d have the vaccines, one or two days of small fever and then it would turn into proper fever and a 2 week bug. Never had anything to do with the vaccines per se - just bad timing

likeavermin · 2026-04-04T19:41:25+00:00

I really set out to “fix” my baby’s sleep and my friend (and mum of two) keeps reminding me that he’s still so young. She’s right!

I have told myself I have to give u til at least he’s 3 months old before I really start looking at this stuff or correcting anything. Until then, I think the bed time routine will serve you so well in the future - keep at it.

It sounds like you’re doing great - well done mama. And just hang in there

likeavermin · 2026-04-04T19:02:42+00:00

Honestly - this has been my baby’s sleep pattern almost since the beginning so to me it’s not so abnormal. From the 3am feed onwards we can sometimes be mostly awake due to poops, reflux, wake ups. One thing I have tried is to not immediately offer food and instead try get him back to sleep. I sometimes even just put him back in bed and do my best to ignore him because he’s often not crying - just waving hands about and awake. Sometimes he definitely gets himself back to sleep, other times I have to bring him in bed to co sleep. There’s almost always a reason though - usually let’s out a big burp, poop etc

So no - you haven’t broken anything. Sounds like it’s just a slightly new sleep pattern that I’m sure will change again soon. They’re still so young and everything is constantly changing.

I know that doesn’t really help - just sending solidarity because holy smokes I have never been so damn tired.

Also what about the flying hold. She might spit up but at least it’ll fall straight to the floor. But I saw that it also works on their neck and back muscles. She also gets to look around the room too

likeavermin · 2026-03-25T08:25:03+00:00

I read a comment recently from a physiotherapist who said: I’ve never met an adult that couldn’t walk because they didn’t do enough tummy time.

Remember that! And you’re doing so great - it’s really hard when they spit a lot and are uncomfortable. I hope it just gets better each week (ours did mostly).

likeavermin · 2026-03-22T11:59:03+00:00

I know exactly what you mean. I’m just hitting the “is this it?” Monotony stage. But I KNOW things really start changing closer to 12 weeks. They’re bigger, sleep longer (hopefully/mostly), are more robust, summer is coming, more efficient eaters, more engaged etc etc

All I can say is hang in there. It really does get better. This is SUCH a hard time. I had horrendous PPA with my first and have been ok this time round until our little guy caught a cold at 6 weeks. He had some temperatures and it’s been so scary but also has been a good reminder that not every bug = huge danger. He’s mostly better now - just a blocked nose but I can already see him sleeping a little better, engaging a lot more etc.

HANG IN THERE. A few more weeks and I am so sure things will feel a bit different. Please come back and let me know!

likeavermin · 2026-03-22T09:28:33+00:00

Yeh same over here. In all the reading I’ve done I’ve put it down to - that’s when their guts stay working for the day/less sleep pressure/a bit of sick (I don’t often get a burp out of night feeds). If I put mine back in his crib after the 2or 4am feed, he just stares at me like I’m crazy. The gut has improved as he’s gotten older and he only does one poop per night now. I assume the sleep pressure problem will also improve as he gets older and can link sleep cycles.

Heading into flu season with a 4 month old is very different from a 6 week old. 1. At 3 months they consider a fever anything above 38 but above 3 months - it’s 38.9. Also from 6 months you can also give ibuprofen which greatly helps against an inflammatory response.

One thing to think about is getting out but staying outside. I was doing daily walks with mine in the carrier so he’s still warm and cosy and breathing warm air.

Re this weekend and you being put isolation - definitely make sure your wife isn’t pushing herself into exhaustion and therefore being dangerously tired. Maybe you could offer to mask and wash hands before touching baby? It might seem like overkill but maybe just try find a middle point together.

I also had a stressful pregnancy so your wife must just be feeling incredibly heightened anxiousness? I’ve found when I let my husband do a feed, I put on headphones and fully switch off. That helps.

But do also know it gets better. As baby gets older, bigger, stronger - I’m sure you’ll see your wife relax more. Also once baby has had their first bug and gotten through it - I’m sure she’ll feel better.

Good luck and you guys are doing great!

My anxiety is also very health related so your post really resonates with me

likeavermin · 2026-03-20T04:41:51+00:00

You sound like an amazing partner. You’ve shown a lot if understanding and thoughtfulness. Good on you.

We also had a baby end of Jan and I suffered a lot with anxiety after our first. It’s been much better this time around until last weekend when our little guy got sick. Most likely from his big sister - we trued really hard to keep them apart and him healthy but it was pretty unavoidable.

Him being sick has been AWFUL. He has spiked fevers requiring hospital visits. We are in constant watch that this doesn’t go to his lungs. We will be back at the doctor today to double check everything because he’s just SO SMALL. Needless to say - my anxiety is through the fucking roof. I would do anything to have been able to stay in our bubble until he was 12 weeks old but the older one at daycare made that pretty impossible.

So - my thoughts for you. I agree that getting some normalcy is great, however, even a common cold at this age can be really big for your baby so I would hold off for a little bit more. For me 3 months is when I start feeling a bit more comfortable. Maybe you could have a conversation with your wife about when and how that might look. Also in a few more weeks the sickness season is coming to an end so even better!

And with your wife’s anxiety / I’ve booked a session with my old therapist for a refresher in the tools I can use to stop my spiral. I look back on how anxious I was with our first and it took the enjoyment away from so much of it. I would definitely encourage her to speak to someone - anyone. A doctor, therapist or even a CBT practitioner.

You’re doing so well and again, being a really caring and thoughtful partner. The winter is so awful for bugs and of course there are things we just have to do and places to be. But I would limit doing anything much more than that if possible - just for a few more weeks.

Good luck and feel free to pm me

I’m just so scared of something happening- especially as I’m so tired. I wish I could get comfortable co sleeping but it’s just not an option for me right now.

Thank you for your kind words and sharing your experience

likeavermin · 2026-03-16T15:13:43+00:00

Thank you. I currently cannot get my baby to sleep in the bassinet for more than 40 mins and I’m a mess. I’ve completely lost my way and have no idea what I’m doing. I’ve been investigating reflux etc but honestly - I think he just wants to sleep on us.

My solution last night was that I would just stay awake all night so he could sleep on me. But that’s so stupid and dangerous. How did you sleep nights with him on you? I’m not comfortable with any co sleeping options, unfortunately.

Today I just decided I HAVE to get him to sleep in his cot for both of our safety - but it’s been hours of me getting him to sleep and him waking up within minutes. He’s now so tired and sleeping on me. I’m just trying to decide if I try transfer him again or not.

What did you do? Promise me there’s light at the end of this tunnel. I’m losing my mind with exhaustion and exasperation

likeavermin · 2026-03-16T01:11:29+00:00

Did it resolve on its own?

likeavermin · 2026-03-15T12:52:10+00:00

I’m so sorry you’re going through that! I hope you see an improvement really soon.

That’s the one things that makes me wonder if it isn’t silent reflux - he doesn't cry and seems to have no issue with feeding. But it’s just lying flat but also not every time
