@rengb121 I think it’d be fine especially if you link if with some other ritual (pizza night or movie night for example). I’d do a weekend to enjoy the morning sleep-in snuggles :) As a kid we were allowed to come snuggle with my parents in the mornings like 6AM or later and they are some of...

@pokerfaceblonde We use Dr. Browns and have never had an issue.

@1stjohn0666 Three 1-week vacations a year - at least 1 week can be just your nuclear family!

@lostinthepast Definitely. We are up to 18 months and have done many flights 2-7 hours long and never used screens. We don’t bring a carseat and bring books, toys, etc. Breastfeeding is her favorite plane activity though.

@jezza I’m so sorry mama. Wear that baby in a carrier. Get one of those big steel luggage carts at the airport. Check everything you can - just carry on baby in the carrier and a diaper bag. Hopefully BF will drop you off there, and maybe even get your bags checked? If not, then an Uber. Get...

@obelex Us too! And OP too! There is a reason they are so popular.

@onlyjesus316 Don’t ask him: “Please this” or “please that.” It’s not a request. Tell him what YOU are going to do.

@drita It would probably only make sense to count the “male” line though (kids of male cousins who are sons of brothers), at least for this x/y chromosome ratio in the sperm question. Separately I have read that some women have more acidic or basic vaginas that are more conducive to the...

@wypimom2 Great rules. Thanks for the reminder!

@pz128 Good luck!! The first night we did it was the first night she rolled onto her tummy to sleep, and I learned that she likes her back scratched harder than I would have expected and for lullabies to be sung slowly in a breathy whisper. I had become dependent on nursing her to sleep too! I...

@pz128 Hey mama. It’s ok to refuse to nurse to sleep every 45 minutes for a 6 month old. We had some similar challenges (admittedly not quite as bad). Your baby can learn a new way and your instincts are right that it will include some crying. I would not go straight to crying alone in her crib...

@rainy214 For back wearing, definitely. I believe you can wear it on the front with small young babies, but the baby’s head would not be supported like in a Solly wrap - you would need to put a hand on baby’s head if you lean forward as in many SSCs with smaller babies. Maybe others can chime in.

@rainy214 If you don’t like a waistband, I would try a ring sling or onbuhimo.

@tangdalun I only ever got nauseous if I let my blood sugar drop. Lots of little snacks and was able to work out pretty normally during first tri; second tri is when it started to change with abs getting distended and not able to be used as much (and getting winded more easily).

@southern_at_heart I totally get it! I do think some distance and letting her fuss for a few minutes is key (not cry hysterically mind you…but my baby “wakes” and makes moaning and fussing noises for a minute or two and then rolls over and goes back to sleep. It’s long enough that when she share...

@brh1989 Can you share more about your experience? What did the first few nights of pick up, put down go like?

@southern_at_heart The most success I had while cosleeping was looking at my watch/phone and keeping her awake for a full feed (10m on each side, for us - 20m total) each time. I would jostle her and talk to her to keep her awake for the full 20 minutes. I found that when she would snack - have...

@clay9000 Definitely ask for what you want, mama!

@doxterrr More than normal - with that many words he’s advanced.

@nsummer12 Changing her diaper seems weird to me. Why does she need this at midnight-2am? I wouldn't even do water unless she asked for it. Maybe time to drop the nap? It's early but not unheard of, yeah? I know it's rough but I would wake her up on time at 8am, and if you do let her nap...
