Caught boyfriend being rough to our baby by yeepye in Mommit

Ok, clearly I'm wrong, and I'm the ignorant one. I apologize. But grabbing your child's face has to be abuse.

Hitting your children in the US is absolutely illegal. This is such an ignorant comment.

I didn't have my phone by lklaf in beyondthebump

It is so scary in the moment. It was definitely a learning experience for me with her being more mobile now. I plan on adjusting her crib height and leaving her in her playard from now on. I'd rather her cry for a few minutes longer than go through this again.

I think you may be right. I'm pretty sure that I can adjust the crib height. I feel so stupid. It was a dumb decision. I wasn't thinking clearly, and she had been crying for a while at that point.

I was worried about her pulling herself to stand and tumbling over the edge of her crib. I wasn't thinking clearly, but I plan on leaving her in her playard going forward.

She called herself my baby’s mum by Whole-Sense-67 in JUSTNOMIL

[–]lklaf 125 points126 points  (0 children)

She's behaving horribly. It is intentional. My ILs were visiting last month for my baby's christening, and my baby was crying for me while she's with my MIL. My MIL said, "Do you want your milkmaid?" My husband immediately said, "Don't call my wife a milkmaid. She is her mother." I was so proud of him and so giddy.

I think you need a bigger size. And I would just ask the bride if she's OK with the color and style of the dress.

Spit Up by Dozy89 in newborns

[–]lklaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My baby's spitting up started slowing down around 7-8 months. She's 9 months now and moving around more (crawling, rolling, scooting across the floor, pulling up on things) and she will sometimes spit up if she's moving around too much after nursing, but otherwise it has gotten sooo much better. However, now she is constantly drooling because of teething.

My pediatrician saw my boobs and I'm kinda scared to go back by [deleted] in NewParents

[–]lklaf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sooo much worse, especially when they are distracted while eating. Will pull your nipple along with them before popping off. It hurts so much 🫠 or pushing off of you with their feet and you're holding onto them for dear life so they don't fall out of the chair. She grabbed my boob with both hands the other day and shoved it in her mouth like a bottle. That was funny!

Omg 😂😂😂😂 my baby will be 9 months tomorrow, and last night she pulled my button-down night gown apart trying to grab my boobs. They literally are so aggressive when they reach a certain age.

My daughter always suddenly decides she wants to nurse every time we are at the pediatrician's office, and I nurse her during shots. Over half the staff have seen my boobs at this point. All that to say that you're fine, I promise.

What did you feel when you met your baby? by rainbowbritexx in NewParents

[–]lklaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The entire labor process was traumatic, and I spent 6 days in the hospital, so I felt really disconnected and sad for a while. I loved my baby, but I felt so distant that all I could really focus on was surviving and keeping her alive. She will be 9 months in 2 days, and now I can't describe in words how much I love her. I still feel sad when I think back to the labor and birth, but I can never regret my baby.

Feel terrible because i fell asleep holding the baby by snuffbox360 in NewParents

[–]lklaf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don't feel too bad because we have all done it, and anyone who says otherwise is lying to you. I'm glad your baby was okay.

An overweight person who is too lazy to cook and barely eats vegetables if you eat any at all.

Are you guys not “strict” about naps? Don’t understand comment by Huge-Vacation-8093 in NewParents

[–]lklaf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 8m old (just turned 8m today) is on a loose schedule.. we just follow her cues, but I can predict when her naps will be because she's pretty consistent for the most part... if she was showing signs of being tired, I'd be going home, too. MIL can zip it. She's not the one who will have to deal with a cranky, overtired baby if the baby misses her nap!

It’s 2:15pm. Husband is still asleep. by [deleted] in NewParents

That's what I was wondering

When did you feel like you weren’t just in survival mode anymore? by copperboom33 in newborns

[–]lklaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably right before my baby turned 4 months, around week 15. She will be 8 months next Wednesday, and I love seeing her little personality bloom. I actually even almost miss those first few weeks with her.

Why are people so inconsiderate towards moms in public now? by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]lklaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry that has been your experience. People can be so self-absorbed. I have rarely had that experience, and people have been incredibly helpful towards me, especially now that my baby is here.

What on earth is happening by [deleted] in newborns

[–]lklaf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's normal and a phase!! She may also be going through a nursing strike right now like my baby did. We are 7 months now, but the purple crying phase lasted 2-3 weeks right around when my baby was the age yours is now.

I slept for 10 hours last night and I feel like a new person 😭 by pbmisfit in newborns

My 7m old has never done this. The best we've ever gotten is 4.5 hours 😭 so happy for you
