@mh86 Thank you 😅 and yes, totally this. When we were breaking the feed-to-sleep cycle my son was a bit older so the deal was he could nurse until full and if he wanted more he could have milk from a cup but obviously this is unrealistic before a certain age haha.

@allfree15 Ok hear me out: earplugs. (Hahah pun not intended) Cry it out in my mind is messed up. I could never leave my baby cry alone. But the crying you’re hearing, while you rock her, knowing that she is fed, clean, are not cries for a need. Her needs are met. She’s protesting. You will...

@acuriousgirl That sounds a lot like gentle parenting to me? Gentle parenting =/= permissive parenting.

@earthenware I think I just wanted to point out how unrealistic some people are with their babies when fully grown adults can’t even do the same 🤣

@earthenware Ok maybe I’m just being pedantic but I can’t sleep on an empty stomach, I totally feed to sleep as a full grown adult. My four year old can’t sleep without a glass of milk either 😅

@letterforms Wow you said it all, this is the way.

@011235813 I’m also in Canada. Let’s be clear you have to be in a very nice position, economically to benefit from the 18 month maternity leave, but anyway. I had my son signed up for swimming lessons at 8 months, which was cancelled due to the pandemic. I didn’t have a pool at home and so by...

@oldaussie Piggybacking off this, OP if your daughter is dyslexic in the French school system in Quebec you will absolutely need to advocate for her and the school will not without a note from her doctor. Just a heads up.

@guevaraj I’d definitely say half-read the study vs. Misread 😅 sorry it’s been a long day lol. Anecdotally I can see the differences in pre-pandemic babies and pandemic babies. Personally, my son actually got to experience more one-on-one parental interaction during the pandemic; Sure, there...

@anonymous9090 The long term effects of not socializing your baby in the effort to avoid getting a virus that they’re going to get anyway once you can no longer avoid it are worse...

@starlightviolet199 Don’t curb it, use it for sake!

@machoke47 Not necessarily sold that the community language will become the dominant language in our case. We live in a pretty bilingual city where French is the community language but a lot of kids also speak English… my son will be going to a French school so I’m curious (now his English is...

@ellyflowers I breastfed for a long time and when I finally said fuck this I had a cold and the little angel bit me! Sudafed for my cold and earplugs for the protesting kid 😅

@angelod This is some Facebook mom-group level nonsense and the last thing I expected from that sub -.- Maybe should have put her kids in daycare hahaha

@kairete You hit the nail on the head, the lesson she hasn’t learned yet is that not everyone speaks both… my son also learned this lesson at daycare

@ericaa The only thing I heard is that if your water is too acidic adding vinegar can wear out the elastics prematurely. I always forget so it’s probably one wash out of 4 or 5 that gets vinegar? No issues at all (my sons ebf though so we’ll see how that goes in a few months haha)

@walkwithme I’ve been using a cold rinse with vinegar, warm wash and cold rinse and it seems to be fine 🙊

@myfaithislost Also, there are soooo many similarities between French and Spanish that dad speaking only French to him is almost like second hand learning Spanish if that makes sense? I do not speak Spanish by any means but I am fluent in French and I can read quite a bit of Spanish and...

@myfaithislost Look for Spanish activities on the weekend?
