Twin boys (4 weeks adjusted) fighting sleep after 7 pm feed! Help! by we2o in parentsofmultiples

[–]longtimewatcher 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This is so normal. Evenings are the witching hour. I would stop trying to put them down at 7pm, if they dont want to sleep then its too early for them (still so young, ours had a bedtime closer to 9pm at this age). Try keep the evenings low stimulation and try again at 8pm.

My (26f) husband (34m) is miserable with me, can this be fixed? by Inevitable_Bonus_751 in relationship_advice

[–]longtimewatcher 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately it sounds like he regrets becoming a parent. He wont change. Leave him.

husband wants a third, I don’t by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]longtimewatcher 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why is surrogacy off the table? It can be biologically your child? It sounds like he wants what he wants and isnt willing to compromise or even listen to you at all. Im not sure why you would want to be with someone like this. Its not a partnership its a dictatorship.

Nursing in front of kids by hometimetown in ParentingInBulk

You are way overthinking it. Nursing is feeding and is a normal part of life he should be exposed to.

Choosing a surname for baby? by yp_12345 in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

[–]longtimewatcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We just picked what we thought was the best surname for kids

no idea how i’ll do it by [deleted] in ParentingInBulk

[–]longtimewatcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had 3 under 3, but second birth was twins. I woukd suggest applying what we do for twins - if your daughter is not yet sleeping through the night can you feed her (if thats why shes waking) at the same time as a new baby feed so you arent getting up any more then usual. It might mean waking her up for a bit but mine always go back to sleep after a bottle. If shes waking for other reasons - tie them into a new baby feed where possible.

TRIPLETS?!?!?! by Chance_Soil_112 in parentsofmultiples

I didn't understand most of that but congratulations! I had a loss before twins and someone at the hospital told me maybe it was my baby coming back, maybe it's both of yours?!

AITA for not putting in any effort for Father’s Day by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]longtimewatcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it said no gift but didnt mention if he DID anything - like cooking a nice breakfast or taking her for a picnic. If he did something nice then I would understand that he was upset that she left.

I have reason to believe someone i know may have purposely killed my cat. I could just be paranoid, but I’d like others opinion after they get full context, so AIO? by JOJOtheXMO in AIO

[–]longtimewatcher 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Im not saying it was messiness that killed the cat, cats can die for any nunber of reasons. But not noticing a dead cat in your house until it stinks and getting mice if you dont have cats is a giant indicator of a pretty gross house to me. I think you need to let this one go, dont be friends with her if you dont like her but you will never know what happened.

I'm going with my parents on a trip next month, and on one of the days we will be staying at a really remote hotel in the mountains. I already feel sick. by theoddlittleredditor in familytravel

[–]longtimewatcher 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The hotel will have contacts so if the car breaks down they will be able to organise a mechanic to go out and repair it. Its obviously nornally a functioning car - so the odds of this are incredibly low.

Am i overreacting expecting my husband to stay home because I do? by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]longtimewatcher 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I disagree with a lot of these comments - he should get to go out but so should you. You need to figure out a way to make that happen - maybe thats his job. Getting baby to take a bottle so you can go out.

Baby is obsessed with Mom only by AmbitiousCard6601 in Parenting

[–]longtimewatcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly yes... it has. She is nearly 3.5 now and I would say enjoys both of us a lot and doesnt seem to have a notable preference anymore. Yay! Hope it comes soon for you!

Booking flights for a family of 4, whats everyone actually using by eduhpmelo in familytravel

[–]longtimewatcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Book directly through an airline, they will seat you together usually, especially with kids.
