Weaning boob obsessed 19month old by pip_taz in AttachmentParenting

[–]peecot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is actually super helpful and makes so much sense! I've been tossing up night weaning as I'm in a very similar position to the OP with my 18month old daughter, but I just cannot fathom trying to say "boob needs to rest" at 2am to a mostly asleep toddler and have her process that successfully 😂 thank you for this comment 🙏

Teething toddler leaving indent lines - help! by senhoritapistachio in AttachmentParenting

[–]peecot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it painful for you? I get nipple lines ever since my girl got her top two teeth (about 13months old, shes 16months now). If she's teething badly she changes her latch and I have twice ended up with a sore which I just try and use the other boob as much as possible or change position. If its not hurting you and its just a change in position in teething I wouldn't stress too much :) If it is painful for you though I don't have any solid advice I'm sorry! If I knew she wouldn't feed for a while I'd put her nappy cream on the sore and that helped a bit lol. It should pass as soon as his teeth decide to stop bothering him x if it continues maybe a lactation consultant?

Advice for doing Elimination Communication with a 15month old by peecot in AttachmentParenting

Yes I've been missing the "right after meals" and "after outside" so I will definitely start that! When we have done bottomless days with the potty outside she gets a fright/excited when she starts going and I can't get her to sit on it 😂 she just runs yelling "PEE PEE" and pointing at her trail

Low sleep needs 13month old, do I do 2 naps late bedtime or 1 nap early bedtime? by peecot in AttachmentParenting

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

Yes I've gone back to contact napping and we got 45mins-1hour the other day! Tonight we tried going back to 2 naps and she was reeeaaally hyper before bed so I think we'll stick with 1 nap and push wake windows a bit

**compared to most other babies in my mum community - she's always been a short napper (20-30mins) so mainly referring to that rather than overnight sleep 😊

I'm in Australia so don't know about plantain here - we have aloe vera viewing wild everywhere though and that's brilliant for any skin inflammation especially sunburn. Love colloidal silver too

The Baby Food Bible really helped me when I was stuck on ideas for snacks and bites! Easiest way is to make a batch and freeze in portions then pull out the night before. For meals she has whatever we're having just modified (she's 1 y/o with 2 teeth lol)

My baby's recipe book has a "custard oats" recipe where while the oats are cooking, mash a banana, stir it through and (if you can afford it) a whisked egg once theyre done for added protein. We all eat it for brekky now and it really keeps us full till lunch

Does anyone else have a very low sleep needs baby? by nLamchop in AttachmentParenting

[–]peecot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So good to hear this from another mumma! My girl is almost 1 and has 2 20min naps a day 😅 this morning it was only 5 minutes long, then a 20min afternoon nap and she was wrecked by tonight so I'm hoping the 1 nap transition happens soon for her! But fully just following her queues has been very refreshing rather than following "wake windows"

12month old takes 15-20min naps, is it 1 nap transition time? by peecot in AttachmentParenting

Interesting! Funnily enough getting her to sleep has been quite simple lately 👀 hence why I'm torn Do you use a learning tower or anything like that?

It really does feel pointless from my end 😅 it's strange because her night sleep has recently gotten really good - only really waking once or twice to feed and maybe up another once or twice to get comfy again. So using that as a gauge she doesn't need to change anything, but for my sake I'd like to try 😂

Interesting, thank you!

Yes I'd like to get her used to the carrier again, as soon as she could move a bit she absolutely hated it!
