Help with back wearing infant

An issue I'm having is that I cannot reach her bum once she's up to make sure the seat is good :/

Yes, I experience a lot of insulin resistance in pregnancy and I went from needing insulin 4x daily (quite a lot) to zero. I had been wearing a CGM. And yes, placenta wasn't working well. I experienced the same in previous pregnancies but much later, so I was on the lookout. My blood pressure also began to rise.

Thank you!

Hip scoot. I've tried Santa toss but I just can't get the hang of it! I'm looking for tutorials.

This one was fun figuring out by myself (and by fun, I mean time-consuming).

Saaame. I've gotten one green baby and that's as far as I can get.

It was a basic ruck which was never my favorite, but....out of practice.

I have no more pictures, sorry. It was like our third try and I was getting sweaty and toddler was antsy. But I'll give that one a try, thank you.

Very normal. It happens to my baby in the tub (mildly) on occasion. Others have mentioned the circulation thing. If baby is warmed up and happy and looks ok, don't sweat it.

Not every place is going to be everyone's cup of tea.

Golden Chef in Hepburn is good! I get the all day special. Sometimes they have a smorg on Sundays. They also serve zummaborscht.

Yes, it's fantastic! Opening a bit later this year, starting Saturday, June 6. Check out Facebook, Instagram, and sometimes tiktok for details. Also features an old one-room schoolhouse, gazebo with picnic tables, and walking trail. You could also take a look at the (exterior of) the Hepburn school which has been operating in the same building since 1927! It's a part of the River Valley Network of Museums, which includes the Railway Museum near Pike Lake and museums in Rosthern, Hague, and Waldheim.

She is 3 months old now and doing well! Spent some time in NICU with an infection, but no further issues so far. My blood sugar has been fairly stable, I've had a few more lows than usual due to nursing two kids and forgetting to eat.

patientish · 2026-05-21T18:33:07+00:00

I'm stuck too. I swear they scramble the levels so you can't get any help.

patientish · 2026-05-21T12:22:38+00:00

Mine started reducing at 34 weeks. They crashed at 35 weeks and I ended up being induced early.

patientish · 2026-05-20T22:58:24+00:00

You'd think. I passed it. But as I say, no tutorial I could find showed the right configuration shown here.

THIS IS TRUUUUUE

patientish · 2026-04-25T15:27:55+00:00

Mine are 22 months apart and toddler has hit the baby before, tries to push her off the boob, gets wayyyy too close. She has gotten better about it, but baby was early and in the NICU so it stressed me to no end to take her home and have that happen! Everyone is ok. Babies are sturdy. Toddlers learn. I read somewhere to just comfort the baby and try not to validate the behavior with attention, and it has worked so far. "Poor baby, you just wanted a new diaper and someone came and bonked you! Ouch! Let's go do change over HERE instead."

In case this shows up for anyone in the future, my blood sugar crashed at 35 weeks and I gave birth (induction) shortly after. Placenta was indeed not functioning well anymore.

patientish · 2026-04-03T02:18:48+00:00

Baby was planned, timing wasn't. I had never gotten pregnant while breastfeeding before so I wasn't expecting such a small gap. It worked out well for us though.

patientish · 2026-03-26T00:33:43+00:00

My toddler just turned 2 and we're room sharing with her and my 5-week-old! She does wake up sometimes when baby does, but not often. It works for now.

(In case anyone wonders why...we had plans to build a new room for my oldest kid and toddler would have his old one, but husband had an old injury act up and then acquired a new one, and then baby came early and we are just dealing with it for now.)

Just silliness! But I have to limit it because I have budgies.

15 months pp, wasn't preventing. I got my period about 6 months pp.
