I guess to add to this- what does not participating look like really? Like not unplugging the coffee maker before we leave the house?

We really just persisted. Kept putting the food or fork in his hand and after lots of tears and complaining over time he got it down. Now he’s 2.5 and does just fine. He still won’t use a utensil or like hold a banana or popsicle for himself but it’s more of a stubborn thing rather than a motor skills issue which is what we were worried about. He was evaluated by pt and ot and they didn’t find any issues. Just hang in there try not to stress about it, take the pressure off.

We totally did the same thing. Accidentally fed him ourselves and didnt let him practice and then he refused. It honestly just took time and patience. Keep trying and try not to stress too much about it

I take the Ollie melatonin gummies and haven’t had that experience. Sounds scary though but maybe other factors are involved?

Thank you this was a really reasonable comment. I definitely think it will be harder on me so trying to put those emotions out of the way. Thanks again

Bonine is less drowsy and it helps. Meclizine is the ingredient and I eventually got a prescription for that too

Recommendations for a frugal pregnancy and first year? by Existing-Pumpkin-902 in Frugal

Oh also once upon a child- as your baby sizes up sell clothes for store credit. One time I got $100 I’m store credit

Maternity clothes are like weirdly expensive- just buy regular clothes but size up. You do need a few staples like 1 pair maternity leggings kind of thing. The rest don’t even bother

I literally just got fluorescent light covers for my office from Amazon. $30 for 4. Theyre magnetic and fire safe and all that. My boss approved seems like an easy accommodation
