    @robert777 It’s crazy that they tell new parents this. I don’t think this works for most babies until at least 4M, maybe even, 6M.

    @nader1 We combo fed for five months before switching to formula, my son didn’t sleep through the night until 18 months, regardless.

    Anybody else feel like a bit of a failure?

    @ladyknox I had a dream pregnancy, birth and recovery (except for the COVID part.) The lack of sleep, stress and outright lack of time for self care ruined me in the fourth trimester. I just feel like I'm starting to recover a bit 19 months later. So I don't have anything to say other than...

    2 month old won’t nap during day

    @themadbaron We did contact naps until 6 months for thIs reason. He’d sleep 2 hours if we held him and that was easier than dealing with Mr Crab 🦀

    Stop f*cking telling me I’ll change my mind

    @i_love_you_lots I feel for you so much, I was there as well when my son was four months old. Even if he was sleeping I couldn’t because I get insomnia based around anxiety about finally being able to sleep. I’m generally an anxious person and motherhood hasn’t exactly helped.

    Stop f*cking telling me I’ll change my mind

    @i_love_you_lots I'm aggressively stubborn, most people believe me when I say I'm one and done. I like people and am perfectly friendly, but my face is honest to the point of being a hindrance, at times. I miss sleep waaaay to much to do this again. I hate feeling like my brain isn't working...

    ParentData is expanding and hiring a writer

    @thiago You don't, but people do. I've found that some people are incredibly stupid and others incredibly selfish and will take any source as as valid as the others if it says what they want it to say. That's my problem with Emily Oster.

    ParentData is expanding and hiring a writer

    @sendmelord You don't think Drs know how to analyze a study? I have a paltry (relative to Dr or PhD) BA in Speech Pathology and I had three courses on data/study interpretations for my degree. There are whole boards created to create guidelines. Whose members have the benefit of whatever...

    17 month old starting daycare: more short days or fewer full days?

    @lizhoney I’d do short days for naps and the consistency of a routine.
