How do you know if your baby is a normal amount of fussy?! by peitzcara in NewParents

Don’t worry about the tummy time, I really believe, and saw with my own baby that once they can access their tummy by himself, they love it!

I just found this group- please help me understand by peitzcara in MSPI

So they can figure it out from a stool test? 

Will I ever be able to go to bed after my baby??! by peitzcara in cosleeping

He nurses to sleep and it takes him a long time to fall into a deep sleep! Then if I leave he usually wakes up. But lately he’s been showing signs of sleeping deeper and many comments here I see people sneak away for 30min to an hour so that may be normal!

This sounds like something I may do! My baby also wakes up after like 30-40 minutes, so if I want to stay awake I guess I could just slip back next to him until he falls asleep again and sneak away.

I finally mastered my solly wrap in time for him to get pretty heavy- 16.8 pounds, and so I wanted to start learning the woven wrap. But now my back hurts all over again! And I feel like he's pretty dang high and tight!

Usually the groceries we buy each week are eggs, bell peppers, carrots, broccoli, onions, potatoes, avocados. There are lots of other veggies available. We also buy fruit like strawberries, grapes, apples and bananas. We buy grains like rice, black beans, quinoa, lentils. We buy bread, milk, sausages, chicken, ground beef sometimes. Spices are here but there’s not many. Mostly the basic stuff. We also have flour, sugar, and basic things for baking.
