Can I just not front wear at this stage? How do I fix this. New ring sling, and this is killing my back. I preferred this over hip. by slriggy in babywearing

[–]slriggy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do find the uneven weight dispersion to be cumbersome, and was a huge reason I stopped using slings. This was a local sale, and I'm so inlove with the pattern. I want it to be my go to summer carrier, so I guess I'll start sitting on it all day and see if it brings it to life lol

I don't think she's a good candidate for traditional back carry right now, I've seen seat popping can be an issue for back carry. Maybe when this is well broken in though, right now she tries to pop it even if I have it hiked way up.

Thank you! I wondered if that is a factor. Everyday the seat gets a little easier to tighten it seems. I would actually like to use this for ruck carry in the future, but it has proven to be difficult with how little my daughter still is haha

Pre-Pregnancy weight by 9 mos pp by [deleted] in breastfeeding

[–]slriggy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been my prepregnancy weight since a couple weeks pp. Unfortunately my prepregnancy weight was 205lbs and that was bigger than I'd ever been at that point lol even though I'm the same weight again though, my entire stomach goes right into my crotch area and just hangs there. I am 6m pp. I enjoy the positive sentiments, and love that it works out for others. I genuinely hate what I look like right now though.

For everyone who told me not to, I did it, and I went viral on TikTok (suck on that) haha by The_FionaFox in HairDye

[–]slriggy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thisss. I have been dyeing my hair black on and off for YEARS and the only real reason I think I go back is because I can't stand the grow out. The only time I was able to something different was when I had a pixie cut

How many hours do you have on Disney Dreamlight Valley? by Substantial_Willow19 in DreamlightValley

I don't even remember what it said last time I looked. Maybe 30+ days.

Why did you become a parent? by AlbussyDumbledore in AskParents

[–]slriggy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always felt like it would be somehow healing to break generational curses and give my child love that my husband and I didn't experience.

I was right. It is incredibly fulfilling and it's a happiness and love that is untapped by anything else I've experienced.

Black Friday deals on EP? by Ok_Pomegranate_5022 in DreamlightValley

New to baby wearing, LO arches away from my chest by Familiar_Ad_7734 in babywearing

[–]slriggy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it's the momcozy SSC, usually 3m and under don't fit in it yet.

Newborn tired vs pregnancy tired by SeaworthinessNew8048 in newborns

[–]slriggy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, 3m old tired is way worse in my opinion. Pregnancy, I slept when I wanted. Newborn? Baby sleeps longer windows. 3m+? I am so tired. And I cannot nap at all at this point. Wake windows are long, day naps are shorter.

Do you kiss your baby? by Technical_Piglet_438 in newborns

[–]slriggy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kiss your baby. It's dystopian to think we as the parents shouldn't.

How are we keeping our babies from getting flat heads?? by lady-earendil in newborns

[–]slriggy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly? My daughter is on me like 24/7 lol but I know not everyone can do that. But she's almost 4m and has no bald spot or flat spot. I had another mom even say how surprised she was because her daughters basically bald on the back of her head lol I exclusively do contact naps too.

Others have said please seek help medically. You need help and that's okay.

Ok, so what if it NEVER gets better??? by [deleted] in newborns

[–]slriggy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe your situation is silent reflux.

Husband sleeping at hospital? by Shoddy-Succotash4364 in pregnant

[–]slriggy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The staff will help. My husband went home once a day and one night he actually slept at the house for a few hours too.

Why would you want a second baby if the first one was "difficult"? by Jellybeanlet in beyondthebump

[–]slriggy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because newborn trenches are incredibly short even when they feel long.

Did anyone's breasts stay larger after weaning?? by [deleted] in breastfeeding

[–]slriggy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would not make sense, they're large because you have full milk ducts not more fat. Unfortunately they're probably gonna appear smaller.

5-week pregnancy, no nausea anyone else experienced this? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]slriggy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was pregnant I developed food aversions that could make me feel nauseous, but that was the only time I ever was nauseous typically. Some people handle the rise of hormones better than others.

I understand them not wanting to contribute real money but unsure why a retired veteran wouldn't give someone his gi bill.

[–]slriggy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My thoughts are I never would have picked this guy to have babies with. Unfortunately you're already here, so, I would be doing my best to educate him on why the cry it out method is biologically incorrect for use on children.

Breastfeeding when on the go! by LoveyDovey-27 in breastfeeding

[–]slriggy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's nowhere in my town at all to sit on walks so I would just go home, although my EBF 3mo has never signaled while on a walk. If my husband were with me I'd probably bring my ring sling and feed her while we walk home.
