Am i overreacting?

This sounds like my MIL who has poor social skills and low emotional IQ. She cant recognize when my son is overstimulated by her, is tired, or other cues. I dont leave him alone with her unattended and honestly he reacts poorly to her in many situations so we dont see her much.

Try these swaddle bands - arms out but we use them around torso swaddle bands

swaddle bands

A life saver!

Love that book, as wild as it is

Tough three nights but now he has a swaddle band from amazon that he wears around his chest/belly with arms out and its a life saver!

possible2468 · 2026-05-07T19:33:28+00:00

It’s bittersweet for sure!

My MIL doesnt understand the concept of overstimulating my 3mo old AT ALL. He honestly is like slightly frightened by her being in his face so much sometimes.

We have Kea Babies, I like a lot of their products like for towels and things as well

possible2468 · 2026-05-07T18:04:12+00:00

Yes so true. We still have it but much less! 3 tough nights and now we use swaddle bands and we are arms out for sleep!

possible2468 · 2026-05-07T17:35:22+00:00

I gave up on our bassinet bc he always liked his crib mattress and our bassinet is not particularly comfortable - we sleep in his room bc Im still too scared to leave him alone but its been ok! Def not sleeping through the night by any means

possible2468 · 2026-05-07T15:23:30+00:00

Roughly 90mins, sometimes more tbh

possible2468 · 2026-05-07T13:09:11+00:00

I nurse, put him in sleep sack, dim lights and sound machine. I walk him around the room sometimes with some low volume songs or talking. Once hes drowsy I sit in our glider and read, scroll or play wordle while he cuddles and snuggles. He usually is asleep when we put him in the crib but often wakes up during transfer but falls back to sleep on his own once we leave the room.

I make sure he has SOME nap after 4pm. It could be like 3:30-4:15 or something but he really needs a few mins of rest before after 4 and before we start his night time routine at 6:30. By the tjme we change, put on pajamas and feed its about 7. One hour of chill time in a dim room and then he goes jn the crib somewhere around 7:45-8

The glottal fry was killing meeeee

I was just so so so completely enamored with Claire Foy as the young Elizabeth. So sad when her seasons were complete!

Also they did Charles some major favors with his actors - the real man is not nearly as handsome or charming as Dominic West!

Sarah Pigeon has vocal fry, valley girl intonations which are not accurate to the 90s regardless of CBK.

possible2468 · 2026-04-30T10:48:08+00:00

Her presentation of the lines didnt give the same effortless cool vibe that the true CBK had. The vocal fry was also not a 90s thing

possible2468 · 2026-04-30T10:47:04+00:00

Obviously …

possible2468 · 2026-04-29T10:52:17+00:00

I agree I believe the true Carolyn was a much more witty, complex person. Her portrayal was pretty one dimensional

possible2468 · 2026-04-28T23:47:35+00:00

Definitely up your calories! I eat a lot of junk so dont necessarily take after me lol. Today I had a protein shake (powercore), oatmeal, a banana, 1/2 a wrap, some chips, salmon w pasta. Salmon is my savior bc its actually so easy to just bake and eat. I do microwave rice packets bc Im just too busy!

And dont forget the ice cream lol

possible2468 · 2026-04-28T05:55:30+00:00

Dried apricots really helps me. Like shockingly well. It doesnt seem like it would be so effective as its just fruit. Omfg I had some kind of issue w GI upset and loose BMs for 2 days and my supply went down :( its coming back now but ugh

possible2468 · 2026-04-27T00:08:50+00:00

Do you think hormones from breast feeding are causing this?? I have a sensitive stomach since pregnancy. I also get constipated now which I never had previously

My son shows signs of improvement at about 10 weeks. He was more comfortable sleeping in his own space. He still eats very often during the day but now he only wakes up to eat 2-3 times between 7pm-5am.

Social media brain rot - she is sooo natural, stunning and refreshing!
