    Strength Training advice for SAHP

    @valentinap Yeah! Honestly. Our kids are our most-accessible, always-there, weights! 💪 We're just starting to get into horsey rides now. 😁 Being a SAHP is exhausting, constantly moving, always someone or something to pick up and carry... 🥵 But like the easiest way to get into strength...

    Feeling alone in not sleep training

    @mariet9 Why are you being downvoted, yikes. Hugs. Yes, we're all doing/trying our best with what we've got. And to the folks here saying "if doing your best is abandoning your baby...." remember that we're not all influenced by the same influences. Some are influenced to suppress their own...

    do you tell your pediatrician?

    @tjschaffer Yep. I'm pretty open about cosleeping. :) I wasn't at first. Soon enough, I felt pretty confident about safe bedsharing. Unless she can fall asleep on her own, then I don't see it going away anytime soon, and we're past the SIDS risk. (She's just over a year old.)

    Feeling alone in not sleep training

    @keithparagon I agree with your overall vibe here, it's really hard for me to hear about people venting about their babies waking up to eat as if it's not natural, even acceptable, behavior. Yes. Yes, yes yes yes yes yes. I have to tune out — "la la la la la, I'm not listening" — when I...

    I did it. I told my ped.

    @katrina2017 Yep, I'm in the US, too, and I truly honestly wholeheartedly believe it's better to be honest about safe cosleeping. It's only one of the few steps we can take toward normalizing it.

    What the OPK ratio levels really tell you: peaks vs. positives

    @prelude4ws Wow, cool, thanks! I'm someone who had a stark positive OPK on Cycle Day 18, negative on CD19, then three bold positives in a row CD20-22! Does that mean I ovulated on CD18? (I tested with first morning urine.) Thanks!

    I need stories of your kiddos moving to their own sleep space

    @derrickolley Yep, same same! I wish I'd researched safe cosleeping before setting up the nursery during pregnancy, because now we've had this crib that we just use for storage and sometimes baby containment while I go pee. But I'm in the US, with a prevalent "sleep training" culture, so I...

    @crutchfield23 Yeah I wouldn't call the OP's experience lucky, either. And she deserves some praise, too! :)

    “Cosleeping/bed-sharing creates dependent children”

    @apostolicfaithone1 (Edit: my reading comprehension isn't 100%, hahaha I will note that I see you mentioned Allan Schore so I'm looking up his work now! Sorry!) ❤️ Hi @apostolicfaithone1, I know this is a cosleeping subreddit so it's going to be heavily biased toward pro-cosleeping, but I...

    Karens at the gym told me I shouldn’t be working out because I’m pregnant

    @cuth6et Haha, great point. Excellent. Medical advancements change. Medical advice changes. The older ladies thought they were in the right.

    How do you accomplish the mindset change to be comfortable/confident in your decision to be a SAHP?

    @mem5 Thank you for your comment, because I'm feeling a lot of what OP is feeling, and needed to read this. Even though I wanted to become a stay-at-home parent since pregnancy. The timing just didn't work out for us right away, but now we're finally able to swing it. My baby is a year old...

    I missing cooking dinner wholeheartedly

    @snlmommy I miss cooking, too. I am hoping to involve my baby in the process more now that she can stand up and walk on her own and she knows the terms for different stuff, like "bowl" or spoon, or the food ingredients in the fridge. 🫂 Nah, you did fine. I feel sorry that people gave you so...
