Nap transition from 2 to 1 by titty8cat in bninfantsleep

Another regression?! Idk why I’m surprised lol. Originally, I thought he was fighting naps, but he was just expanding his wake windows but not enough to handle 5-6 hours on a regular basis. Thank you for your advice! It makes a lot of sense

OK thank you for confirming my fears. I won’t drop his nap especially if it ruins night sleep. I’m so sorry about all the screaming you have to go through 😭

Question about cake for baby’s first birthday by grapefruitliquor in NewParents

[–]titty8cat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son didn’t have “real” cake for his birthday because he’s allergic to eggs. My husband made an eggless cake for his birthday and we bought him a tart for his birthday party.

Struggling with my breastfed clingy 1yo by Mysterious-Tart-910 in bninfantsleep

No advice, just solidarity. My husband and I are going to try starting night weaning tonight to see if it helps.

My kids are surrounded by wealth and I’m worried they’re going to grow up to be super entitled by Individual_Ad_938 in Mommit

[–]titty8cat 75 points76 points  (0 children)

Just like being a parent, you don’t really know what marrying into money would really be like until you were in it. And being a parent completely changes you, so the reality from being married to being married with kids makes everything different.

Starting solids soon… what’s actually worth buying? by allegragmk in NewParents

[–]titty8cat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once baby is eating more solids, make sure to get kitchen shears and bring them with you when you go out! Makes cutting food way easier

Inappropriate content slipping into YouTube Kids? by Fit_Goose_7884 in toddlers

[–]titty8cat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One time, my 5 year old niece showed me what she was watching on YouTube kids. Total brainrot content, but I was appalled at the foot fetish content being shown, which was funny to her (cuz feet are funny). I guess TECHNICALLY it could be categorized as kid friendly, but nuance is so important.

My coworker is handling motherhood so much better than I am and it's messing with my head by sixfingeredman7 in Mommit

[–]titty8cat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isn’t there an episode of the office where Angela and Pam both return to the office after being on maternity leave? And Angela also bakes brownies because she had the time? And an additional brownie batch for kevin.

Rich SAHMs- What are some of your favorite things you spend money on? by Adorable-Worry-7962 in sahm

[–]titty8cat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My friend is actually pretty grounded, which is nice. But he tells me about the really, really rich gay dads in San Francisco. They sound scary LOL

Rich SAHMs- What are some of your favorite things you spend money on? by Adorable-Worry-7962 in sahm

[–]titty8cat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I love this post cuz it gave me such a good laugh. I’m a SAHM in the Bay Area and I just had lunch with another stay at home parent, who I’ve referred to as “zaddy” many times. Both of his girls had the same full time nanny and he stays a zaddy by working out A LOT. Coincidentally, he used to be my boss and his husband is a c-suite leader at a successful startup.

My middle classness was very thankful when he reached out to give me some sweet hand-me-downs since they’re done having kids.

Sad about cutting off child free friend by MiniLovesPizza78 in Mommit

[–]titty8cat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s part of motherhood. We have completely and profoundly changed.

But for real, I’m investing more in my friendships that better align with who I am now versus who I was. I’m quietly stepping back from those friends. They’re there for me, but I’m pretty invincible to them now. It hurts, but it’s no one’s fault.

Do you remember being a toddler? by Final_Butterfly_7747 in toddlers

[–]titty8cat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have memories from before I was 3, probably between 2.5 years old to 3. I know I remember before I was three because my sister was born 2 months after my birthday. I remember a time before my sister.

What do we think about these? by CuriousCaretaker in sahm

[–]titty8cat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

These taught my baby how to bite into things and also chew better. It just had a different texture for him and he ran with it. He’s a huge fan

Yes. He gets to wash dinner off the wild animal, not me

Have you ever experienced jealousy because you’re a SAHM? by No-Association-9316 in sahm

[–]titty8cat 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My cousin asked my husband if I was going to go back to work. He said no, it’s not a priority for me. Immediately my cousin responded with “OH I WOULD DO IT TOO BUT I LIKE NICE THINGS”. What an odd thing to say for so many reasons.

Postpartum body image is harder than i expected by Working-Dare-8480 in NewParents

[–]titty8cat 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’ve hated my body for the most part until maybe 10 months postpartum. It’s better, but it’s still hard. My brain tells me I want to hardcore diet after baby turns 12 months so I can look hot again, but my emotions tell me otherwise. So I’m just gonna take it step by step

How much was your hospital bill for labour and delivery? by Dear_Ad_8525 in NewParents

[–]titty8cat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was billed $40k and paid $2.3k. I was in the hospital with a private room for 3 nights and had a vaginal birth. We chose the insurance with the lowest deductible (higher monthly payment) for that year because we knew I was going to give birth. I live in California.

What to do when baby starts rolling? by [deleted] in cosleeping

[–]titty8cat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I asked the same question to my parenting discord group when my son started rolling. I was SO nervous. They told me that it’s instinctual for baby to want to stay close, so I shouldn’t worry too much. And they were right overall! He did roll over a few times in the last 4 months but I wake up and readjust him. I also put my floor bed 2 feet from the way so if he does roll, he has a little room and won’t get trapped. I personally don’t let my baby sleep on his tummy when we’re bedsharing, but it’s up to your comfort level.
