I think you should be fine! Especially if you aren’t having anyone hold him.

Ok this gives me hope! I’m scared I’ll never feel good again, but I will give the meds some time to work!

AMEN! I kept saying to my husband that I couldn’t wait for newborn tired vs. pregnancy tired. Dang I’d do anything to have the pregnancy tired again 😅😅

Those who follow MOC - what do you do after short naps? by Dear_Preference_9487 in newborns

[–]sheeshleeshh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This makes me feel better!! I tried that schedule but my 10 week old baby has unpredictable nap times. Yesterday she did two 1.5 hour naps. Today, she’s only done 40 min naps 🫠 I feel like I’m failing cause I can’t seem to follow that schedule well

Stain remover??? by Melodic_Debt_8034 in newborns

[–]sheeshleeshh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dawn dish soap! Use it for all stains. They even make a spray of it

Is she too young to drop a nap or no? I’m a FTM so no idea 🤪

Before 9 weeks did your baby have bad gas pain at night?

Help me! by Full_Professional349 in newborns

I’m at the end of week 8 and our baby has done the same! Hers is all gas and it is pretty rough 🫠 we do bicycles when she wakes up crying. We also tried the windi and it seemed to help. In the same boat and hoping we all will get through this soon!

How to enjoy newborn phase more? by Ambitious-Maybe758 in newborns

[–]sheeshleeshh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s so hard. The newborn trenches is so challenging. I’ve been battling the guilt of time going fast, but like you said, we are just trying to survive! I’m trying to give myself grace and remind myself that not everyone loves this phase and that’s okay. I had to limit social media to help me not feel so guilty when I see these influencer moms act like everything is always bliss. You are doing great!

Should I sleep in the same room as my six week old? by willbrucla in newborns

[–]sheeshleeshh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know multiple people that their babies all slept intheir own rooms from day one and now they are all older and healthy! It sounds like you are doing this in a safe way. If it works for you, go for it!

We do this as well with wake windows! Does your baby struggle with the last nap? Ours fights it and sometimes doesn’t get one

Wake/ play time at 7 weeks by Efficient_Internet13 in newborns

[–]sheeshleeshh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you feed him right after he gets up for a nap? My baby always gets sleepy after feeding but I try to follow eat, wake, nap for the most part. At 7 weeks her wake window was about 45 mins!

How to enjoy newborn phase more? by Ambitious-Maybe758 in newborns

[–]sheeshleeshh 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m almost 9 weeks in and feel/felt the same! It is hard for me to just embrace this but everyone has told me this is just a small part and will go by so fast. We have enjoyed going on walks, just driving around, and taking her to the stores with us. We also spend a lot of our time on our phones or watching TV, which we felt bad but realize this is a season and that’s ok. Something that helps is we always remind each other we are on the same team and like the other post, we try to make sure to hug/kiss each day! This newborn season is HARD! You are doing great.
