@nazpastor I wasn’t under stress during my pregnancy, I had an incredibly easy pregnancy with my only symptoms being nausea and well.. a baby. I didn’t work, got to hang out at home with my cat and do art and enjoy life while my husband supported me…. My daughter was still a grade A clinger. I...

@kristyrh That’s just awful. There’s a difference between walking away because your child always fusses for a minute or two when laid down and leaving your child to scream for hours. My daughter won’t fall asleep if I’m in the room with her. She’ll talk to me and literally run circles around in...

@mazince514 I night weaned by setting alarms and dream feeding her before she woke, and slowly fed her less and less at each feeding and tried to encourage bigger and more frequent feedings (without force obviously) during the day. It takes a lot of time and effort but migrating those calories...

@roberte There’s lots of versions on Amazon! Even a pillow pet one if he uses pillows yet

@dpasek There are no controls or variables considered when looking at it like that, correlation does not equal causation.

@benzohar Co-regulation is so important. Children can’t learn to regulate themselves without co-regulation. I understand why distractions have been your go-to, cause a lot of the time that works! However, when it gets to the point where it’s not working anymore you have to set boundaries and set...

@mikailao20 One thing that drives me crazy is that the statistics that suggest children have a higher IQ are all very poorly done studies. I got this from a really great article that delves into it: “In reality, the causal link is much more tenuous. We can see this by looking carefully at a...
