    On a first-name basis with 2-yo

    @stop_cern_idea At this point I'd be ecstatic if she called me by my first name. She's 22 months old and hasn't managed to say "mama" in any meaningful way. She can say the syllables but whenever someone points at me and says "Who's that?" or "Where's mama?" we get a blank stare. She says a...

    My kid wakes up every day at 4am and I’m drowning

    @mickaela Solidarity. My almost 16 month old has been sleeping like trash since I went back to work in August and my husband took over primary care during the week. I have no advice, only hope that it gets better soon for the both of us because sleeping in 2-3 hour stretches is not working for me.

    RTF formula: is it really necessary for newborns

    @lewis5398 I used powdered from the get-go, when my daughter was about four days old. Just make sure you follow the instructions on the can regarding sterilizing the formula and you’ll be fine.

    “JuSt wAiT tiLl tHe bAby gEtS hErE”

    @evanlooksuptothealmighty I felt so much better once I had my c-section. Hip pain, gone. Heartburn, gone. I could sleep in any position I wanted. I didn’t have to worry about work because I was on maternity leave. I could nap when I needed to as long as the baby was asleep. Nine months in I...
