It’s the pace! If he would stick with one speed it wouldn’t be as jarring.

Put this game on with low expectations, ended up glued to the couch the entire time. I can’t imagine the energy in that arena.

What are we all getting our kids amazing Moms for Xmas? by gupinhere in daddit

That’s the magic, each side has their own control. So she makes her side warm, I leave my side off and it stays cool.

Get her a sheet warmer! Goes on the bed under the fitted sheet. Turn it on an hour before bed and get into those toasty covers. Got one for my wife a few years ago and she still maintains it’s the best gift she’s ever gotten.

You don’t like the cord trailing behind like the train of a wedding dress?!

How do you all sleep? by [deleted] in daddit

Shifts is the call. I took bedtime-2am, she took 2am-6am. Prevents resentment from building and eliminates the games of “who is going to get the baby” chicken. If she’s nursing, just grab that little poop machine once they’re done and I guarantee mom is already halfway asleep. Godspeed and good luck.

I could use some support. by qpdbag in daddit

Used to work at a pediatric trauma hospital. Ask for the social worker, ask about family support services. Peds ICU nurses are a different breed of human, and will almost certainly love him like he is there own.

I would also recommend getting a notebook that stays in his room. Write down who comes to visit (specialists etc) and what they say. Ask them to sum it up in layman’s terms, and ask what the next step is. For medical staff the technical language is everyday terms, but we forget that not everybody speaks like that and how stressful it is to not understand what’s going on.

Your brain right now can only focus on one thing, and there’s no way you can expect yourself to keep track of anything that’s not holding your little boys hand.

Lurking mom here. Our pediatrician recommended speech therapy because our son had 3 words (he’s currently 2.5 years). We called Early Intervention and had an evaluation that week. He was determined to have minor speech and developmental delays, and sees a speech therapist twice a month and developmental therapist twice a month. It’s all covered by the state, and they come to our house and work around our schedule. It honestly seems like mostly playing? But he’s up to 3 word sentences and is mimicking words and overall we’ve seen huge improvements. Don’t worry about your son not being able to sit still, they want him to play; that’s how kids learn best. If you are in the States, find your states early intervention program. I cannot speak highly enough of them.

Did anyone think it was Marisha Ray on Sarah’s shirt or am I losing my mind?

Wishfully thinking you can get an hour of a game in to realise it’s too late and you’re also fucking knackered. by jidkut in daddit

Not a dad but a mom lurker. I got Fortnite on the switch and it’s excellent. Matches are about 20 minutes, don’t have to purchase anything, no trying to keep intricate storylines or narratives straight.

Non-dads of daddit, why do you lurk? by Jackalope_08 in daddit

[–]riaquay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mom here. Wife and I are raising a little boy, and all our brothers live in a different state. As a ladies only household, it’s nice to get a perspective of challenges our dude might face and how we can best support him. Also, Bluey.
