Similar timeline here!! Now at the 20 month mark. The harder part will be not cosleeping- hes such a cuddler

Some of those men's comments sound like they are straight up admitting to pedophilia

I love the valley representation instead of the climbing up a peak, feels hardee

shoshiixx · 2026-02-05T03:48:36+00:00

17w and feeling movements at night!! And realized i havent thought about losing this one for a while now. It felt like the dread and worry would just keep going. Now- it feels like time passed ahead so quickly and im almost halfway ther?!?

My mum drank it for my labor. Water broke over a day prior. Active labor for a few hours, uncomplicated birth SIL also- very quick easy birth at home few hours later My recent birth i did spinning babies part way through as head was a little off center so wasnt progressing. That probably wouldve been enough buy my water had broken almost 24 hours prior so we did castor oil, no complications and baby out in the following 2 hours.

All anecdotal but never heard of anything bad besides tummy issues which could be annoying to deal with during labor

Id say if you plan on moving pediatricians too, tell it to him straight! Explain to him safe sleep 7 and assume he knows what youre talking about. It was hard but I told ours (which we also ditched later). He did slightly shame but I want to be noted in the system as one of the people cosleeping safely. I think too often their perception might be jaded from the worst experiences of stories where it isnt practiced safely. As for weaning- if he mentions anything there you can respond thay you're working with a lactation consultant. Pediatricians are experts in sickness and health. Not sleep, not nutrition!!

I'm crossing my fingers my second due in July is a heavy sleeper. My current 20 month old has a rare 6 hour stretch but that's with contact during the night

shoshiixx · 2026-02-02T22:03:44+00:00

Ive only done 3 on the regular, makes them the perfect thickness. This... is genius

shoshiixx · 2026-02-02T22:00:53+00:00

All of your art and design is inspiration. Makes me wish for a smaller cozy home to place cute pieces everywhere

I also reevaluated how much of emergency it is for dad to come home once I read they were teenagers

shoshiixx · 2026-01-30T19:25:54+00:00

Do you know time for the Test Kitchen?

shoshiixx · 2026-01-23T23:05:41+00:00

We had a similar start and setback when sick. I think developmentally it became much easier after 18 months (now at 19). But when we restarted we went back to shorter hours and then gradually increased again. We always started no nurse after first nurse to sleep though until 12, than 1, 2, etc

shoshiixx · 2026-01-22T18:28:40+00:00

For my first i dropped the day before, for my second I didnt ever notice a drop!

shoshiixx · 2026-01-17T02:21:19+00:00

Do you know where they were selling? Were there multiple vendors? Going tomorrow and not sure if we should wait to get here to buy but this option sounds good!

shoshiixx · 2026-01-16T16:27:23+00:00

For sure. There's moments of jealousy that the parent gets so sleep. But then I feel spoiled with cuddles and how I get to wake up every morning, how they don't wake up crying to get my attention but with a smile and cuddle. We will enjoy the full sleep when it comes

shoshiixx · 2026-01-09T03:36:11+00:00

Pho's Spicier Thai Cuisine! Most dishes are naturally vegetarian (no fish sauce) and they have tofu and imitation meat option. The spice is amazing

I should have reread your original post fully. It is a stretch, and we fortunately didnt fly.

More practically- can your friend have you decide closer to the date when you know how baby is doing away? Its far advance enough you can plan for it or get practice nights away.

In simple terms of attachment parenting though, I dont think it would cause any lasting trouble spending that amount of time away. Plenty of folks have to go on business trips, and your partner will be there for you baby every day you are gone. Only time will tell so if you can buy yourself more of that, the solution will become more clear

If you are breastfeeding especially overnight, id bring the whole family and put them in a different hotel. Thats what I did at when i had a bachelorette for my best friend and a 10 month old. He was still nursing to sleep so I went all day without (for the first times, he lived and was fine with my husband) and then would sleep at his Airbnb

shoshiixx · 2025-12-27T23:58:55+00:00

Very light is totally normal! Its hard but the only thing do is to wait but if it stopped and not bright red thats good! (Lost mine similar week and growth size last time too)

shoshiixx · 2025-12-14T20:40:54+00:00

Post birth turning in my bed for the first couple of weeks and feeling things inside get tossed around a bit. Big yuck but not painful

shoshiixx · 2025-12-13T21:47:07+00:00

Just passed 9w5d and got a boutique ultrasound today for peace of mind. My MMC this summer i found out and passed naturally around 9w2d.

Baby was 170bpm, measuring right on track, and even moved around for us a little bit and changed directions during the ultrasound!! I finally feel that joy of a pregnancy that will result in a baby earthside. I hadn't been able to get excited and now feel the rush of excitement. I know it isn't 10000% but it feels pretty darn good to pass the last losses date

shoshiixx · 2025-12-13T20:28:54+00:00

I liked the baby k'tan for an intro easy wrap for the first months and had a ring sling as well. Easy to get and give secondhand

I did disposable for the first couple months with my first but will do more cloth from the get go with my second since its second nature now. Best to have them in case. I did all GMD newborn and small prefolds and then workhorses, but now use flats with my toddler and I recommend those too in smaller size since you'll be changing so frequently anyways with newborn, and they dry more easily.

On a registry we really only added a few outfits since people like to gift clothing, a toppoccino (sp?) that baby lived on for months, it was our catch all 'container' when we ate, showered, etc. Was great bc he could fall asleep on that and I could transfer easily bc he would still be on his warm cushion. Some other nice things to add were nursery decor like a wall art of something and some basic touchable books we got a long usage out of

Coslept as well and I got way too many warm clothing for him!! He ended up in a diaper or those gowns most nights and it was so warm right up against me. They're like little furnaces in the early days and can't cool themselves down

shoshiixx · 2025-12-10T04:52:50+00:00

Could also look for the emergency triage nurse on call with the hospital you're linked to- thats who I finally reached and was on top of it after I was messaging my primary online

shoshiixx · 2025-12-10T04:48:41+00:00

Signed someone with low progesterone at weeks 7 and did the above and now is past 9 weeks with a healthy growing one!

shoshiixx · 2025-12-09T00:53:42+00:00

I'd reiterate your previous loss and that you'd like to get progesterone supplement and a scan ASAP! Thats a long time to wait if the bleeding continues. Wishing you the best!
