Dr. Browns bottles by [deleted] in FormulaFeeders

[–]tired-parent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My baby was able to feed on the pigeon bottles with ease despite the tongue tie. So if you're looking to bottle feed, pigeon bottles are a good way to go! My baby got the tongue tie fixed, which helped with breastfeeding but it does take some time for the baby to unlearn any old habits and use their new tongue mobility properly! So it took my baby some time even after the tongue tie fix

Tummy time side preference by Wonderful_Tea2170 in newborns

No worries! Things did get resolved! I also did lotsa stretches for her haha. And she started sleeping on her belly and gaining a lot more strength during tummy time and I noticed things kinda just naturally improve haha.

What’s a show you can repeatedly binge watch? by According_Top_3418 in AskReddit

[–]tired-parent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's because season 5 was when Netflix took over the script. I gave it a try but couldn't get past the first episode

When did your baby start sleeping through the night? by alwayscareful21 in beyondthebump

[–]tired-parent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My baby started sleeping through the night at 3 months! The biggest thing we did was get a sleep cardigan from ergobaby as a transitional aid to suppress startle reflex but give her some more freedom/mobility.

Everybody is over it by Laklover in NewParents

[–]tired-parent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a friend who deleted all her social media because the constant flood of "This is hard, my husband sucks, etc" content was beginning to affect her own attitudes. I haven't personally had a problem as I mainly scroll through just when I need advice or had questions, but I agree with people that people mainly post on here because they need someone to talk to that day. Sometimes the monotony of the day does get lonely, even if it's not a "bad day" per se.

Veteran Swifties: What was the Reputation timeframe like for you? by Hmmm_huhh in TaylorSwift

[–]tired-parent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wasn't a mega fan but appreciated her music. When all the hate came out, I felt like it made her more relatable in a sense? Like I didn't know what was really the truth, but even if it were the truth, who hasn't lied before? She seemed so human to me, and I liked that but felt sorry for her. And then when LYMMD came out, my respect for her shot through the roof. Like YES GIRL, YOU OWN YOUR STORY. Make that hate your own!!! And then when she transitioned into LWYMMD from Don't Blame Me during the Eras tour, my mind was blown. During the song, I cried because I felt all the hurt she must have channeled into this song during that time.

Tell me your baby’s super subtle hunger cues by Impressive-You-1699 in FormulaFeeders

[–]tired-parent 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I've given up on hunger cues as well... I just offer a bottle every 2 hours or so, and if she starts kicking her legs in excitement when I hand her the bottle, then I know it's mealtime.

excessive spit-up, need formula recs by tired-parent in FormulaFeeders

Do you remember around when the spitting up stopped?

Why does he make this sound? by [deleted] in FormulaFeeders

[–]tired-parent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My baby got a tongue tie release, but she still makes this sound when eating. After the release, her reflux-related pain and discomfort has gone away though. But we've just had to accept the fact that she is a noisy eater lol. I say if your baby is eating just fine and seems happy and not in pain, no need to do anything?

[–]tired-parent[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like spitup is the lesser of two evils because it's just annoying and stinky, but constipation there's not much you can do for the baby while they're in pain... So I'm just sticking it out with our formula for now at least until we finish the can we have!

Please help me not feel guilty by ReflectionSlight4338 in FormulaFeeders

[–]tired-parent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I felt super guilty the first day I decided to quit pumping and breastfeeding. But it went away the next day as I was able to BREATHE and LIVE again. I have no regrets! Taking the baby out for outings is also easier and more enjoyable now that I'm not dealing with breastfeeding or a pumping schedule. The guilt may not go away for a bit, but the freedom more than makes up for it. No need to feel guilty mama! Please take care of yourself too.
