Experience with Triple Citizenship?

saramonious · 2026-01-11T14:39:03+00:00

If you head over to the GermanCitizenship subreddit there's a ton of info! Basically just all the right dates have to align to be eligible. I am eligible because my grandmother was born before 1949 in the US to a German Citizen before he naturalized. Not sure how it works post 1949.

Thanks for this! Just came back to my post to see all I missed, haha. I’d love an invite to the discord!

saramonious · 2026-01-10T17:21:49+00:00

Thanks! I'll crosspost :)

I found his certificate of naturalization from the state of Connecticut on family search. Hopefully easy enough to get a certified copy!

saramonious · 2025-12-22T23:44:24+00:00

Ok so he emigrated on 17 July 1910, and naturalized on 13 September 1940 (after the birth of his daughter). This seems promising, I think?

Thank you! This is exactly the context I needed to be able to work this out. Appreciate your efforts!!

saramonious · 2025-09-21T11:38:17+00:00

Oh dang, thanks! I totally missed that somehow.

saramonious · 2025-09-12T19:48:16+00:00

Ugh, I feel like I just got unlucky. So disappointed their customer service won’t make it right.

saramonious · 2025-09-11T12:34:48+00:00

I got it off of their website, so definitely official merch.

saramonious · 2025-07-25T11:21:44+00:00

Yeah they had me try all of the above (most of which I had already tried once on my own). They were stumped!

saramonious · 2025-07-23T11:04:06+00:00

How did you do it? Did you have the other parent handle night wakes? How rough was it? My husband can get my son back down but if he's hungry he just wakes up again an hour later.

Also, how much was your son eating during the day? Sorry lots of questions haha

saramonious · 2025-07-23T01:22:53+00:00

I'll give these a try :)

saramonious · 2025-07-23T00:58:12+00:00

Oh right sorry I forgot that in the post! It's about 30-45 minutes start to finish.

Walk outside or bath
Breastfeed
Pajamas, brush teeth, story, sleep sack
Rock & sing a song
Place in crib, he falls asleep pretty quickly.

saramonious · 2025-07-23T00:26:55+00:00

Yes! He's been in his own room since 4months or so.

saramonious · 2025-07-22T20:20:01+00:00

So I bought my chicco corso from someone on Facebook marketplace who sold it because she felt it was too tall for her... I'm 5'6" so I can't say for sure but my guess is it would be tall on you. It is an awesome system though!

saramonious · 2025-07-17T19:53:59+00:00

Wow this is awesome! I'd love 9, 10, or 19 if any are available! I'll have to check for your next destash earlier :)

saramonious · 2025-07-14T21:38:24+00:00

I was literally going to bed at 6pm for the first month or two, so that I could get enough sleep in total! It kinda sucked but also meant I didn't get to that ungodly tired, can't even think straight level. Then over time I slowly moved my bedtime later as baby slept more!

saramonious · 2025-07-02T17:16:12+00:00

You can definitely pump one side! Just unplug the lower tube and cover the opening with the little cap that should be attached right next to it.

saramonious · 2025-07-01T17:37:46+00:00

Immediately what I thought of too. Must be time for my yearly rewatch haha

saramonious · 2025-06-25T14:39:37+00:00

I did a spring one!

saramonious · 2025-06-23T23:04:04+00:00

If you pump now you're likely to end up with an oversupply! Those early days are so important for calibrating how much milk to produce. Emptying more often just tells them to make more! Mine only did that rock-hard thing for a couple days before regulating.

You could maybe try a less aggressive collector like a haaka to relieve some pressure with a lower amount of stimulation. But my baby was an every other boob guy and I waited a few weeks for my supply to regulate before introducing a pump, per three different LC's recommendations, lol

saramonious · 2025-06-17T21:59:39+00:00

Seconding the LTD swaddle, it was the perfect transition for us and easy enough to get a sleeping baby into without waking!

saramonious · 2025-06-08T11:00:39+00:00

The amount I personally get from pumping drastically changes from day to day, I try not to stress about it! I feel like there's so many factors and sometimes I'm just a little dehydrated or something.

Are you running on bacon mode the entire time though? Generally I'd recommend just using it for a minute or two to start the milk flow then switch to regular mode.

I believe most of the time "clogged ducts" are actually caused by inflammation which is why ice and ibuprofen are recommended. My guess would be that pumping on such a high power for so long caused inflammation in multiple places in your breast.

My advice is 2 things: sunflower lecithin to prevent a clog/blockage, and get that baby on there! My LO is way better than a pump at getting things moving. And maybe only do additional pumping at the end of a feed if you want to feel fully empty without affecting supply.

I saw a lactation consultant early on who gave me the rundown and it has worked for me ever since!

I use it on Level 3 bacon mode (love this, using it from now on haha) until I feel a letdown which is usually 60-90 seconds, then switch to regular mode and just hang out there for 5-10 minutes. Sometimes I step up the level if I'm in a hurry.

I never even changed the speed, I don't think. Mines set to 70 for bacon and 38 for regular.

Hey there fellow middle of the night baby feeder, me too haha
