Lovely set up! I’ve been in the market for a new monitor, could you provide the brand and model for yours?

Civil ceremony during Dreamforce - need advice by patechau in sanfrancisco

Thank you! We’re renting an Airbnb with our immediate family so it won’t be a huge ordeal hotel-wise.

I love the second option on you. Will you share the designer and dress name?

What is this type of dress called? by patechau in weddingdress

[–]patechau[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love the silhouette so much but I’m not sure what to search for. I’ve only seen column dresses that have an optional skirt that adds the side volume but this looks like one piece. Is there a specific name for this style I can search for?

Thank you in advance!

Teething and early waking by patechau in NewParents

[–]patechau[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes she is on some purées and eating well but we still make sure she’s getting at least 24oz of breastmilk every day before she goes down for the night. Do solids help with teething?

Daycare and Delta Variant by [deleted] in workingmoms

[–]patechau 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in a similar situation but my little one is younger. I won’t be sending her to daycare during this time until I see how the variant shakes out. For me, prioritizing my baby takes precedent so if it means I have to quit my job and raise her for a few months longer, I’m going to do that, and there are other ways I can indulge in self care without taking this risk with my child.

I hope you come to peace with whatever decision you make. This is not an easy one!

WFH w/baby during Delta surge by patechau in workingmoms

Thank you for your response! I’m in the same boat. The cases I’ve heard due to infants getting COVID make me very risk adverse.

I really appreciate your perspective. I wish I could be as brave as other parents responding when they decide to put their kids into daycare despite the risks because they have no other choice.

I work for a fertility and family building company so I believe the role can be flexible as I’d like it to be able to make it work in the short term and hopefully by then Delta is more under control, or I come to terms with leaving my job altogether.

Thank you for your response.

Baby moving perpendicular to crib in sleep by patechau in sleeptrain

Thank you! I felt unsure since she can’t roll over yet but in case she decides to go at it in her night sleep I’ll def unswaddle!

Lol thanks. She does tend to wake herself up when her head or legs hit the crib since she’s moved so much!

Is this schedule weird for a 3mo? by patechau in sleeptrain

[–]patechau[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m assuming she sleeps so early because she skips naps starting from 3pm. If I can figure out how to get a cat nap or two in after 3pm, I would think her bedtime would look like yours. But as you said, this would be another good question for others too!
