    Lightweight Infant Car Seats

    @occanondenomchurch Honestly even the lightest carrier gets sooo heavy after just a few weeks. 7lb carrier plus a 10 lb baby is not fun. I wish I had gone with a rotating car seat like these from the start.

    Best things about minivans?

    @porcupine73 Some headrests can interfere with the install of a forward facing car seat. Different car seats have different rules and might not work properly if they’re pushed in a specific way by a headrest. Yet it’s important that all seats in a vehicle have a headrest for non-car seat...

    Best things about minivans?

    @porcupine73 Trying to get babies in car seats without the aid of a sliding door is so frustrating. Plus older kids open the doors carelessly and hit other cars/poles all the time. Also you would not believe how many cars have dumb designs that make car seats so difficult to install (even some...

    When did your baby sleep all night w/o feed?

    @londoj My first went back and forth. Some weeks he slept all night and then a few weeks later would be up every 2 hours. Finally ended when he was 18 months old. He’s slept through the night ever since then. My 6 month old just started this week but I don’t have high hopes that this will last...

    Cloth diapering a preemie - what weight did you start diapering?

    @jesuslover34 Haha yeah. My little one does the same. With disposables I’m like well that’s another 25c down the drain but with cloth I can just wash and repeat.

    Cloth diapering a preemie - what weight did you start diapering?

    @jesuslover34 Unpopular opinion but I think newborn diapers are totally worth it. You go through so many diapers those first 3-4 months. That’s at least 10-12 diapers a day for 90-120 days or 900-1,440 total diapers. Better fit prefolds and hook and loop covers were my favorite in those early...

    Babygoal v. Nora’s v. Thirsties

    @lpadr009 Good point! Half my current Thirsties size 1 are on their third baby. They do make a quality product. I’m pretty sure this is my last baby however. I’m so indecisive! Haha

    Another q on second (scheduled) c after emergency c with first

    @jcbones I had a schedule c section and my baby was very sleepy afterwards but she’s always been a really good sleeper compared to my first who was a vaginal delivery. And to your second point, yes they sometimes need help getting the fluids out of their lungs but they give you one of those...

    Is it sensible going back to part time work 2 weeks after a C-Section

    @pattimayo Oh god that sounds torturous and painful. You’ll still be bleeding too. Add the newborn sleep deprivation and that’s a big no for me.

    Babygoal v. Nora’s v. Thirsties

    My baby is fast growing out of her size 1 Thirsties covers. She’s 96% for weight and has rolls on top of leg rolls haha! I’m loving covers with prefolds/fitteds so was looking to get the next size up in covers. Wondering if I should stay with Thirsties or save some money and buy either Nora’s...

    When did you go for it? What about the constant peeing?!

    @liskev It doesn’t have to be all or nothing. You can give cloth a try and if you feel overwhelmed take a break and use disposables until you feel up to it again. I do change babe whenever they are wet or max two hours (even if not wet) even with disposables. The nice thing about cloth is it’s...
