@christopher000 Most pediatricians are overpaid hacks Please switch. Ours was trying to get us to wean our son and put him on formula and cow’s milk at four fucking months old

@jackstack We are doing this to wean our 22 month old. But this is the EARLIEST we are considering it and he is staying with my parents because they are younger and more spry. And they actually have a bed for him. My in laws are salty over this but they are old enough to be MY grandparents.

@summer63 I turned it off when I got pregnant. It was so easy. I hated the 8-5 grind. Just train yourself to realize that caring for your baby IS the job. And people get paid to do that for parents who are working. So your work is valuable. Even if and when you are just sitting there watching...

@laura100 Ok but the genes won’t soooo

@zman0101 We use the tv for music a LOT of the day and this has encouraged my son to go read and do independent play Never feel guilt about needing some static and background. It’s not going to lead to chaos.

@zman0101 It’s not bad. Think about how many of us actually grew up watching tv on occasion and all of a sudden were fearing the mere proximity to one

@merekas People who say this are usually jealous and projecting on you

@johnd Flying with a child was the opposite of soul destroying for us. I think most people either live on the negative or maybe their kid is genuinely difficult.

@tradesman No. That’s also missing the point. I’ve been in OPs shoes. Our first pediatrician wanted us to wean our son at four months and I had social pressure come from all ends to sleep train him. Why? I don’t know. But I ignored it. I fed him on demand. Let him sleep when he needed to. He is...

@cleo721 That’s not really a routine that’s just normal caregiving I’m talking about RIGID Nap and meal times

@chux7 I guess because I’m so introverted I’m grateful he has to do that instead of me. So there’s no jealousy. Instead I just get our son out of the house to do one of the free parks he likes, library, or we splurge and go to a cute indoor playplace/amusement park

@terrastorm Who is doing a routine for a newborn. Sounds like they’re lying. We didn’t have a routine until my son was literally nine months old

@irisnicole8405 She doesn’t watch your daughter NEARLY enough to need that

@ahead Not a mistake you just need a break/vacation/date weekend or SOMETHING. Think about it. Full time employees get PTO. We do not. My husband is gone Monday through Friday. Nights included. I would LOVE 12 hours because then he would at least be home!!! So as someone who can relate to what...

@myownmynativeland Oh yes our son LOVES him some Little Bear. We just treat our house like a 90s house and it’s great

@christianwomanljc Steve Irwin’s show from animal planet is good Zaboomafoo Anything on National Geographic but we stuck with a show called Planet Earth Go to YouTube and type in types of documentaries you want to watch and countless good ones are free. My son likes dolphins and pigs and...

@myownmynativeland Elmo is a LOT.

@ezek1234 I was raised by a sahm and I can honestly say The constant background tv did not harm me in any capacity whatsoever. I graduated college. I was top of my class. I’m an apparel designer. And an excellent chef. I also was watching a lot of science shows So with my toddler, I pick...

@mikeytosh Go shopping, go to the zoo, museum, make a curbside order because eff grocery shopping lol, go to a really nice outdoor mall and get lunch All with baby in tow. It is WAY easier at that age although I wouldn’t say it’s hard now that my son is 2.
