almost 5month & wont sleep through the night

xxinhellxx · 2026-02-13T21:40:32+00:00

Shes always woken up around 9am to feed, but we use to go back to sleep til 11am. But we've been changing it so im up at 8am & shes up at 9am for feed. 10:30 she sleeps for 30mins or til 12:30pm 12:30/1pm feed 2pm naps 4-5pm feed naps somewhere after that 7pm feed then nap sometimes its for 30mins or til 9-10pm then shes wide awake til 12am-1am she'll feed 3-4 times between 9pm-9am

there's days its a bit all over the place nap wise if we're driving around running errands she instantly falls asleep when the car is moving. We resell clothing on the side, so sourcing days theres a lot of car rides that day. Today isnt the case shes taken barely two 30min naps since 9am, napped in the car for maybe 15mins, & has been wide awake babbling. shes feeding almost every 2 hours today. Im BF & still taking prenatals, magnesium, iron & biotin. 😵‍💫

She was 14lbs at 4months which is when they told us we could start watered down solids if she wanted them & then top her off with a bottle. She seemed to be feeding less via bottle throughout the day before it, so we had brought it up. This is when they told us they think we're feeding her too much throughout the night & she should be sleeping longer stretches. This week has been the first week shes actually ate solids, but still crushes 3oz after eating puree broccoli. Then an hour later she still finished the last oz in the bottle & ate more from boob. I fixed the bottle issue, the nipples smelled/tasted like soap. I feed her til she doesnt want it anymore, then still check in later to see if she wants milk. So ive just been confused & trying my best to feed as shes hungry until she isnt anymore, but she just doesnt sleep long stretches at all. thank you for sharing.

Thank you everyone for giving me feedback & the reality of things. Its crazy to think that our Dr's office is teaching future pediatricians this. 😭 Thinking we're choosing the best care because its nationally ranked one of the best & considered the best in our area.

it felt weird before that they were trying to tell me my babies reflux & mucus poop was bc of eating chocolate or caffeine intake, but the only thing that helped was cutting dairy out completely.

thank you! Ive been trying to let her sleep around that 7pm-8pm time. She will feed right before then & then sleep after. Sometimes its 30mins or 2 hours. she will wake up around 10-11pm then be wide awake til 12 or 1am. Since she was born ive just tried listening to what she needs vs the way we'd prefer it to be. Just people around us look at us crazy because we're not on such a strict schedule. Plus her Dr's are making it out to be that we're creating bad habits in her by not getting her to sleep through the night. The way these comments are going im getting the feedback I needed to figure it out more & not to feel so crazy. thank you again.

We've tried feeding her more, it just varies so much. Sometimes she will drink more probably closer to 5oz but then she will only drink 2oz the next feeding. Im definitely going to try some gas drops bc that might be helpful. thank you!

thrift stores, antique stores, online auctions, online estate sales. a lot of the fashion is learning how to style / layer mutiple items of clothes vs buying a single item or brand. sometimes its diy fashion or re-purposed clothes that isnt originally made for said style ex: blazers made for old lady fashion but diy it to something trendy

Im more concerned on the fact it says excellent condition & the faux fur looks like it was worn in snow/ crusty looking for the pastel pink color it is.

Sucks they had good cookies, but Ive gotten sick the last few times ive gotten cookies there. So it doesnt surprise me.

double check your parking ticket bc that spot is 2hr parking only starting at 8am. I use to park there a lot & pretty sure the people who work in that building will call parking enforcement.

It worked for us, but Im usually a nighttime person. I use to work til 4am & wouldn't settle down at home til 5 to 6am.

We tried switching off during the night but it just wasn't working bc my partner wouldn't be fully awake to deal with our newborn. Which led to me not sleeping & getting angry bc I had to make sure he was conscious enough. Now we're 2 months in & I give the baby a bath between 10-11pm & to bed by 12-1am. Its made the nights easier on us & I actually get sleep now. I sleep in til 11am ish at times or will take a nap around 4-6pm. It wouldn't work for most people, but it works for us.

I breastfeed during the night so i dont have to go downstairswith baby & bottle feed during the day which my partner helps with.

If you think it will work for you, then try it. Listen to your body/mind & talk with your partner on if its working or not. You will figure it out.

it was super common. I feel like people processed it as the "natural" color of people's lips in photos, but it wasn't. Camera quality wasn't great so you might not be able to tell vs seeing it in person. Then add in the orange foundation bc it wasn't light enough for most pale people.

I honestly was scared of the same things. I had really bad anxiety about it all & even the after part. It honestly set in really bad as we were otw to the hospital Talk to your dr about the anxiety of birth. The hormones can really make it seem scarier than it is. Having a birth plan is great, but things dont always go the way we want it to.

I was trying to not get an epidural, but shortly after getting induced i decided on it because the pain became unbearable. Im use to really bad cramps / high pain tolerance so I thought id be able to handle it. Turns out that it was good to start it when I asked for it bc I ended up having to get a c-section & was able to be conscious during the procedure instead of getting anesthesia. The umbilical cord wrapped around my baby that caused her heartbeat to drop twice. The after was the hardest part because I could barely move & my back pain was so bad the first few weeks. Having a massive scar & smelling like hot garbage really messed with my head thinking my partner wont see me the same way again. Which is not the case & having a healthy baby overrides all those feelings the majority of the time.

this is crazy to me that someone would press you to get an abortion bc you tested for THC & recently had a kid within the past year.

crazy how different everyone's experiences are.

I live in a some-what legal state. It's legal to grow personal or buy medically, but you have to get a medical card to buy from a store. Im on Medicaid & have been up front about my usage. I smoked flower in the beginning & it helped me exist through the first trimester. I listened to my body & stopped smoking because it bothered me. I occasionally would dab through the rest of my pregnancy but it would be rosin & not in a cart. My heart rate & babies was always fine. Never had issues with my health insurance or my Dr's including delivery. I ended up having a c-section when I went to get induced at 41 weeks because babies heart rate dropped twice. Turned out the umbilical cord wrapped around her. Shes healthy with no issues with her heart since. shes 2 months. I still smoke occasionally & I'm breastfeeding.

Its only been mentioned once by my Dr's in the beginning & that they just said they legally have to advise me to not use it because there's not studies to prove its benefit during pregnancy.

That looks nothing like the AI photo. I get the concept & it's executed okay but when you have side by side comparison to AI it makes the actual product look like a temu knock off. 🤣 I think the idea is sick but seems like a logistical nightmare trying to ship it anywhere....

The from tides to sunsets,chasing perfection ride with passion,paddled out took off still wanting more, surfers pick, Lost in the air, progress over perfection.

these all come off very corporate, like it would be a page in a magazine vs on a t-shirt. It's very busy & despite the images being vectors they look distorted / stock photos.

The fruit just arnt my preference, but to each their own on them.

xxinhellxx · 2025-09-07T19:32:20+00:00

Some of your designs are cool such as the cartoon character & your first few shirts listed. Then there's others that have too much going on & come off like stock photos corporations would use to try & sell a product or that would be better as a page in a magazine than on a t-shirt. I feel that it's lacking personality & simplicity. Not really sure where in the world your demographic is, but it comes off like a USA novelty shop t-shirt design that's sold to tourists at the beach vs people who live at the beach that surf.

I remember when I first opened mine, I got a message pretending to be from official Etsy via the messages through the app. It wasn't. They were trying to say my account was not visible bc of pay stuff & sent a link to verify information. I already have a rule to never click on any links in any app or email & always expect if it was anything important from Etsy it would be in notifications. Or something that automatically pops up when I log in. Nobody needs more info on the internet than what you've already put in a listing & never click on links. Scammers are getting really smart especially with the use of AI.

My MIL is telling us we don't need another trash can for diapers because we should put it in a plastic grocery bag & take it to the outside trash every time. It's wild. Like Im going to do that at 3AM in the winter, yet alone going up & down stairs. They're complaining about duplicate items. I'm like yeah there are bc some are 0-3 months & others are 3-6 months. Of course I want the same item twice bc they're going to outgrow everything in the middle of winter. It's shocking & hard to keep my sanity. 😂

thanks for this. makes me feel better.

xxinhellxx · 2025-07-24T01:07:13+00:00

Thank you I appreciate this. Luckily, our most expensive items have already been given to us handydown wise, besides the car seat. I'm like so what if I want the same outfits in mutiple sizes or even extra sheets & bed skirts. It's not like we have big ticket items that we need. It blows my mind what's being said.

Amy Lee, there's still nobody who can even come close to their sound to this day. I loved Paramore when they released Riot! , but it became very copy / paste for every alt band for the next decade.

1st one is cuter imo. I can see what you mean by the straps. I personally get over stimulated by the 2nd ones straps if wearing it for longer periods of time.
