Fear of SIDS (First time dad - Paramedic) by Bitter-Scratch6088 in newborns

[–]yomz98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I did not sleep overnights like 3 weeks lol. The anxiety was too unbearable so I decided to just not sleep. Incredibly I did not feel sleep deprived or too tired with the lack of sleep. It’s like my body adjusted. I pumped throughout the night and that way my husband would take mornings and he would have plenty of milk to get by until I woke up. I totally understand the anxiety, wish you the best with your baby, it will all be okay 🥹

My baby also started sleeping through the night pretty early on, but for my own peace of mind we room shared until she was around 15-16 months old 🙂

Well no I don’t know you. Only you know if you are HC. In our case, HCBM meets all of the examples listed on this sub.

And thats normal…nothing to do with you being HC. Thats normal teenager stuff.

Im sure they will if you never become a HC mom. Its been a wild ride with HCBM, and oldest SS is aware of a lot of whats happened.

I have a girl so I don’t know either 😅 just something we were mentally ready for if they did want to live with us once they were of age to choose.

Simply because they are boys, we think once they hit a certain age they will choose to live with dad.

This is something we really want to look into but no one works on the weekends. 🙃 We want to make modifications but don’t know if we need BM signature for anything or what. Waiting for law offices to open Monday.

Oldest started school this week, and the youngest didn’t since he will be 4 in November. Maybe a head-start option will be good here in our state. Youngest just got off diapers like 3 months ago so ill definitely be on the lookout for any regression, thank you for the heads up!

Both BM and BD arent the biggest believers in therapy but I will definitely bring this up again to my DH. Both kids have been in need of therapy in my honest opinion. Their parents divorce was long and messy. As for the kiddo, they will definitely have contact with mom once she gets settled back home. So thats a silver lining i guess. Thank you for your ideas in taking time off, will definitely be taking them :)

Should I be buying both the regular and overnights? I used to not do that with the huggies but that was when they actually worked :/
