    I’m so tired of hearing what other people did/ are doing with their babies

    @charity78777 Mr family is doing the same thing right now to try and get me to fly with the baby to California for a wedding at the end of this month and to Texas for Thanksgiving next month (we're on the east coast). It already would be really hard to do that but the sickness risk from bringing...

    I don’t have a mom or a lot of family. Give me some motherly advice and tips about my first born

    @madscribbler Congratulations! I am almost 15 months in to becoming a mom and I am the first in the family to have a baby for decades so I felt like a lot of the advice I got from family was outdated or unhelpful. I relied a lot on advice from the internet and it contributed to some pretty...

    Setting up a routine isn’t a priority right now

    @terrastorm We're at nearly 11 months and any routine we get into has been driven by her and she ends up changing it after a month or two anyway. When she was that little, the "routine" was diaper check, feed, sleep. We added more play and activities in between as she stays awake longer. But...

    do you tell your pediatrician?

    @tjschaffer We didn't start until around 6 months and at her next appointment I was honest and our pediatrician said "Well, she's not a newborn anymore. Just try to get her back in the crib at some point" She didn't even ask about it at the 1 year.

    Anyone else walk into a big box store and feel like they’re the only ones awake in some sort of toxic capitalist matrix?

    @doubra I have a hard time trusting any big company and it's exhausting. I got a few toys from Amazon early in postpartum from reputable brands because I was trying to be safe before I found out that those could also be fake. I have a hard time buying anything new that isn't consumable. I really...

    How to deal with being away from your baby

    @henryjoshua You might enjoy the r/AttachmentParenting sub! My daughter is 15 months old and I still don't really feel comfortable with it for very long. I think I will feel better once she can communicate a bit better.

    No Screens Possible for Short Flight with 13 month old?

    @lostinthepast We did an hour long flight with our then 14 month old last month and she was not interested at all in screens. I had all kinds of snacks and I specifically brought a post-it note pad, masking tape, and small tupperware container for her as well as some books which were way more...

    What do you tell your pediatrician about sleep?

    @yoshinat0r I'm honest because it doesn't seem to matter. I got judgment when her naps were over 3 hours, judgment when they were 45 min, judgment when she slept through the night at 3 months, judgment when she was waking 3-4 times at 7 months. She's 11 months now and still nurses 2-3 times at...

    Did r/ScienceBasedParenting just shut down?

    @forumfan This is incredibly upsetting. That subreddit is a great resource for so many people. To shut it off to the world because of one person is infuriating. Is there no other recourse we can take? This shouldn't be allowed.

    Pet Peeve On These Parenting Reddits..

    @jsphalford11 I get what you're saying and that is annoying. When I see a book rec I'll usually google around to get more opinions before I invest my time in it. And I stop reading if it just feels like it isn't for me (I did this with Precious Little Sleep, actually). And there is time to...
