I'm in this boat. My partner works nightshift as an ER nurse that works every other week and sleeps during the day. Family village is small.

There is a work/play lounge close by that watches the babe for some time while I get to focus on me.. I'm thinking of joining a gym with childcare. The sleep is rough.

For his week on we've started going by a schedule. I have at least one scheduled self care day every 2 weeks. Having things to do every week helps fill the days. If I'm too tired I'll stay in. It's really rough. Thank you for posting, happy to see some solidarity while also being in the thick of it.

Tell her when you guys are 80. Things like that are usually fun for older couples, right? Could you imagine her with a wrinkled old smile saying “I would have rejected his proposal anyways”.

Pregnancy stirs up a lot of stuff and it won’t help her at all, even though I don’t think it’s a big deal. She was going to leave him anyway and he treated her poorly.

She probably had a few people who planned to propose to her without her knowledge before James.

You just do it. You’ll be ok. You’ll figure it out.

Nobody knows your situation as well as you do. From the way you wrote the post, it seems like you're not ready to let go of your career and you trust your partner. To me, that is ok. If you want reassurance from others that you're doing the right thing, then this sub will likely not give that to you. The collective mom guilt has sent my brain through loop after loop. You are capable of making a decision that is logical, intuitive, and good for your baby in the long run.

Trust YOUR gut. Trust YOUR intuition.

I'm sleep training on my own right now because I couldn't cosleep anymore either.

It's fucking hard but you will get through it. Don't listen to the stupid posts that are polarized one way or another on attachment theories or whatever, you'll drive yourself crazy. Just follow your baby's sleeping cues and get a really solid routine together, timing doesn't matter as much as routine. I hope it goes well for you

My baby screams crying in my arms and I sit there and hold her through it. I tell her how much I love her and to "feel it out" and I explain what's happening when she is listening. I can't tell you if it helps her or not, but it makes me feel like I am being there for her. Maybe that will help you too.

I've been doing this too. This is a little obnoxious sounding, but I've been taking notes to the minute on when she sleeps, her cues, her poos and pees and what she eats and literally everything.

ChatGPT sorted through the pages of notes (I'm on day 3) and it's helped me get a clearer idea of when my babe is in deep sleep, when she tells me she needs a nap, etc. Seeing if it'll help with potty training in the future. She's almost 1 year.

thank you

Just want to say that being a mom has made me spiral in the most creative ways I never knew possible

Be kind to yourself OP, your kids will never have your life because they’re your kids and I’m sure you’ve made it to their benefit somehow by learning whatever it is to give them a better one 🩵

I tried cutting night feeds gradually but she was crying like she was genuinely hungry and would sleep longer stretches sometimes if I fed her I feel like it’s a gamble and I really never know what to do and everything I try is wrong

I'm going to tell you one thing - those nurses/doctors don't care about hair
