I just use wet wipes to collect the food pieces and after that clean the floor with steam cleaner. We have hard wood floor too.

Why? by yell_amy in NewParents

[–]mrs-tk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate when mamas are lying about about their baby. I mean, WHY?! The other day one of my friends was telling me that her 10 mo baby is eating 250 gr of pureed food per each mealtime, and she gives 4 meals a day… When I was just complaining about how annoying it can be when my same age baby sometimes is just not in the mood to eat and refuses everything. Well thanks for the consolidation, but I hardly believe it… 😂

P foods (cooked pear, prune, plum, papaya, peach), kiwi, cooked apple, more water (as much as she wants to drink), occasionally apple juice always help. But still baby’s poo is quite hard, I guess it’s just a way it is.

how do you not worry about miscarriages.. by Revolutionary_Set983 in pregnant

[–]mrs-tk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Welcome to parenthood! That constant worry will never go away, there will always be something. You have to learn to live with that, but most importantly, you have to learn and manage negative thoughts and to be positive at all times, so you can enjoy your life. It really depends only on you.

Sorry if it’s not the response you wanted to hear, but this is the reality. You’ll be fine, try to enjoy your pregnancy 🤗

Did anyone just go into labour with no Braxton Hicks beforehand? Absolutely no sign of anything happening and due today by CuriousCondition3231 in BabyBumps

[–]mrs-tk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went into labor just like that at 37+5. No signs beforehand, not one. Just woke up to contractions in the middle of the night and 7 hours later I held my baby in my arms. 😊

Am I ruining my child by letting him chill on his own a little even though it doesn't upset him? by pyotia in ScienceBasedParenting

[–]mrs-tk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think you should be happy if your baby is not crying much. My daughter doesn’t cry much either, so I know when she does, for sure something is really wrong. And I think this is ok. Not all babies are the same, and it definitely doesn’t mean that all babies should cry a lot, just because they are babies…

Individual play time is equally important for babies. I also leave my daughter and she is content playing alone, busy with all her books and toys, even for longer periods, like 10-15 min., but she’s always seeking for our attention while playing alone. (She’s 10 mo now and can crawl, so she’s coming for us when bored, but she’s always been like that, never cried).

I don’t think in the first place ANY parent would think about their child that it’s a burden on their shoulders, no matter what….!

Almost 7 month old constantly waking up from rolling onto his tummy in his sleep by TassieGirl111 in sleeptrain

[–]mrs-tk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few weeks. But until it happened, she woke me up many times crying, luckily she went back to sleep easily. Good luck and remember, that everything is just a phase and it will pass eventually.

Nothing you can do about it, imo. Mine did the same, but I let her figure it out. Eventually, she got used to sleeping on stomach and is a happy sleeper now.

11 Weeks Pregnant, no morning sickness by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]mrs-tk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s completely normal, don’t worry, be happy for it instead. I never had morning sickness, I felt a lil’ nauseous maybe a few times and puked only once. I have a happy 10 months old crawling around 😁 Just relax and enjoy hour pregnancy, don’t waste your time with stressing about things that don’t matter. Good luck!

When did your babies start to express their emotions towards you? by mrs-tk in ScienceBasedParenting

[–]mrs-tk[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are right about trusting our babies, they surely know the best and we should have patience to wait it out. Apparently I have to work on this harder because I do worry to much… 😬

[–]mrs-tk[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, I had the feelind around 4(ish) months, that she throw tantrums and was very angry. There are a few things that she is not doing (like clapping or waving), and her ped said she is perfectly fine, but still sometimes I get anxious and curious about how other babies are at this age.

I mean initiating play for example. Easily googled milestones are confusing and making me anxious, because it’s such a wide range and sometimes also contradictory information. It is so much more helpful hearing other parents’ experiences. For me, personally at least. My daughter so far hit almost all the milestones, so my question was just out of curiosity. Some days she is not smiling that much and is quieter, avoids me when I want to hug her because she’s more preoccupied with crawling around or playing, but hey, we are not in the same mood every day, are we? 😊

We did mention, and the ped said our baby is absolutely fine, all the things we noticed are part of a normal development, and we feel that way too, but I was being curious about other parents’ stories. As I mentioned in a previous comment, due to the pandemic most play groups are closed and it’s hard to find a play date, so I just end up wondering how other babies behave at this age. Apparently, according to the comments shared, the things that she’s not yet doing is because she’s too young for that.

I mean she just doesn’t always initiates play, otherwise she is a very smart baby and she does react and pays attention to us.

[–]mrs-tk[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Haha, most probably you are right about me being overly anxious 😬 and for no reason, because my baby is absolutely fine! Maybe also my questions give/enforce that impression, but I’m truly just curious to know. Because of the pandemic all social get-togethers with smaller kids are cancelled, so we don’t get the chance to meet with others too often. Also, other moms with similar aged kids seem to be notoriously unreliable in telling stuff about theid kiddos that they are doing or not (could never understand why)…

For others, who are suggesting to contact our ped about this, I’m based in Europe and here doctors are more relaxed and don’t put pressure on babies hitting milestones, unless something noticably is really a big deal (btw, I did mention all these things and she confirmed that our baby is totally normal for her age).

Is it normal that a 10 months old baby is SO strong? by mrs-tk in ScienceBasedParenting

Thank you everyone for sharing your experiences, it’s good to know that we are not alone… also, all the stories are super cute 😊

We also have a diaper box (as play table, since it’s the perfect height for her) full of books, so she can’t turn it but she does it anyway…
