@jonesmith092 We had a wrap and also the Tula Learn To Grow. The wrap we started using on day one, and the Tula I think probably week 2 or 3

@etant I think maybe we should practice during the day when things are less fraught.

@etant Does she stay pressed up against you on her side? I thought maybe that would work as long as we’re touching but she still doesn’t like it :(

@etant I have! I can’t figure it out. I’m already a bad sleeper (pre baby), so it’s not really a good set up. I’m so uncomfortable staying in one position, and I get so cold. Side lying nursing seems great in theory, but she will fall asleep after nursing, then wake up approximately 5 minutes...

@keobong79 What do you do at nighttime? I’m in awe of babies that sleep in the bassinet at night!

My 7 week old is generally a pretty good sleeper if conditions are optimal. The optimal conditions are basically the carrier, occasionally a chest if she’s just been nursing. I know you can’t form bad habits at this stage, but I’m wondering how much we’re setting ourselves up for failure by...

@atlanta It’s definitely weird how much they prepare you for pregnancy and labor but not taking care of a baby! I think most people feel the way you do. I knew it would be hard but not this hard. My husband and I were talking about how even the relatively new parents we know seem to have...
