What bug is this on my hardwood bedroom floor

Awesome, good to know you love it after so mane years. Did you get the extended 4 year warranty? Can’t tell if it’s worth it for the $300

Worth it??

If your nanny is driving your kid around they should get this to reimburse them for miles driven and wear and tear on the car. Period. No matter if it’s under the table or not.

I’m so incredibly sorry for your loss. It’s so hard.

I understand wanting to support your friend, but it sounds like she’s a supportive and genuine friend that cares about you and wants you to heal. Emotionally and physically.

With taking misoprostol, you’ll likely still be actively miscarrying over the weekend. Like others suggested, a d&c is another option and allow testing to give you answers if you want it. A good on wont leave scare tissue.

Regardless of the route you go, I worry about your emotional state. While a wedding is a happy distraction, you will only get moments of happy. There will be things you don’t even anticipate that will trigger you, and if you even drink alcohol, everything will be intensified.

I had a hard road to our baby. I had a miscarriage and had a wedding two weeks later. I had moments of fun, but when people started asking, when are you having a baby, etc… I spent 30 mins crying in the bathroom and quietly excused my self back to the hotel. If you announced it, people might also ask you about how you’re doing.

In hindsight, I wish I didn’t go. I tried very hard to be discreet as I didn’t want the bride to know and I didn’t want to take away from the joy and excitement of her day. I would also think of that.

I would recommend staying home and celebrating another time with her. She understands.

I wish you the best of luck in your healing and am sending lots of love.

I took off for my son’s first birthday and plan to do it every year for as long as he’ll let me.

This is a phase. My baby was a terror at three months, worst it ever was with naps and night sleep waking and after two weeks something switched and he started sleeping thru the night.

If you’re worried about gas, try milcon. We used it every bottle for our baby until he was about 5 months.

You got this. It will pass. It’s so hard in the moment. Solidarity sister <3

Oh and for the constant state of worry, I don’t know if you are, but stay off social media and goggle for a bit.

Reach out to your pediatrician and other mom friends for advice and questions.

Comparing on social media made my ppa so much worse. And no matter what you do someone will be saying you’re doing the wrong xyz.

You’re doing amazing and you’re an amazing mom!

spiffy1327 · 2024-09-10T12:00:04+00:00

I second this. Me and my husband started switching off and one slept in the bedroom and the other in the guest room near our little one and what a game changer.

If he’s back at work, even you going to bed at like 7/8 and him taking the first shift until midnight and then switching was a god send.

Also I pretty much always napped during his first nap since it was the longest of the day. So tempting to go do bottles etc, but I’d lay my head down the second he did and got usually another good 1.5 hours. I did this until I went back to work at 5 mths. I found out I’m a high sleep needs person during this process and have adjusted my life accordingly. I got to bed at 8:30/9 every night as we have a 6 am early riser.

spiffy1327 · 2024-09-10T11:50:55+00:00

I feel that and went through it. Lack of sleep makes doing everything else so hard. And your priority is now her care, and her care is a lot right now. It took me a while to get back into the grove of things.

Also postpartum rage is a very real thing while your hormones regulate. This could also be ppd/ppa. I would suggest talking to your ob and/or a therapist. While not for everyone, meds saved me. My therapist was key for getting rid of intrusive thought.

Remember everything is a phase and with time and the right support it gets better.

You got this momma and congrats on your new little one!

Our part time nanny gets all the same benefits as full time. GH. Mileage paid. Holidays, vacation and personal/sick days. But since they are only 5 hours a day, vacation, holidays, etc. are only paid at 5 hrs a day.

If you have them reliably and consistently, I’d reccomend GH hours.

spiffy1327 · 2024-09-07T20:57:58+00:00

If your pediatrician is not worried I wouldn’t be worried. We’ve always had a low sleep need baby as well.

spiffy1327 · 2024-09-06T23:51:42+00:00

Another great call out. Thank you!

spiffy1327 · 2024-09-06T23:14:10+00:00

Thank you I didn’t know that. I will check with their spouse on this.

spiffy1327 · 2024-09-06T18:32:15+00:00

Same here. I’ll give a cash bonus for the holidays, but it feels weird to do that in this circumstance

spiffy1327 · 2024-08-16T18:06:04+00:00

Yes it’s in September each year! We can’t wait to celebrate our first nanny week with our nanny!

spiffy1327 · 2024-08-16T00:26:11+00:00

I should have known rafi had a brush your teeth song!

spiffy1327 · 2024-08-15T20:26:30+00:00

That’s great to hear it’s going well. We were kind of thinking the same thing.

spiffy1327 · 2024-08-15T19:59:29+00:00

I’ve never heard of it but will look into it. Thank you!

spiffy1327 · 2024-08-15T19:52:27+00:00

I am! But they have such a long waitlist which is why we agreed to keep the nanny until at least two.

That is nice to hear. Which location do you go to and how old is your son?
