@poppa51 Oh I’ve done this. A mom was carrying a newborn wrong and I offered to help her fix it. I could tell she was embarrassed but got defensive and said it was intentional… I’m just hoping she checked once she got home

@jar1437 ED is the fucking worst. I used to be so proud that I hadn’t eaten in days. It’s such an obsessive disease. Hoping she gets into an inpatient program asap. I know it’s hard but I’d personally not force her to eat until there’s some level of therapy involved. If it’s really bad, take her...

@chevy_dude Oh is that a new rule? Just make sure to let subs know so we can upvote

@christfollower1993 It’s likely someone else is taking over it and taken it offline while they revamp if not Someone should request it via r/redditrequest. Looks like this one exists too https://www.reddit.com/r/sciencebasedparentALL/s/CpUKCrHQ8N

@15gb2 In short, sleep training that is seemingly pushed by everything on the internet. And apps. We didn’t bother, we took the r/possumssleepprogram approach of following baby’s lead. It was way less stressful and felt like we could live our lives. Do what works for you.

@mystichaze I don’t have research but many babes sleep through by this age. As long as weight gain is okay it’s usually not an issue at four months. I’m curious to see what others say!

@parnellj83 People are full of unsolicited advice around pregnancy. It’s the fucking worst.

@nazpastor Meh. He’s 14 weeks old and being a typical newborn and infant. You didn’t do anything to make him like this.

@dragonfly11 I love that IG account but promised myself of all the sleep aids I’d buy I wouldn’t give IG influencers any money. If you want, join the hey sleepy parents fb group and someone there will probably tell you the clutch pieces! Regressions/progressions all suck but they pass...

@coufalm Not everyone has time or resources to make everything at home fresh. Again. It’s a privilege. Some people have three jobs, are single parents, have chronic health issues. Everyone is just trying to survive.

@carolus Whining, protesting, yelling. But no tears

@doubra Yikes the judgment on this thread is wild. Folks are doing their best and being a ‘clean’ household with whole, homemade meals is a privilege.

@francescapl It’s very normal at this age. Mine was like this from 15-20 weeks

@mrmovie1983 There are sleep training methods without crying but just fussing. If you google no cry sleep training you can read up on it

@steveepperson You need to remind him he has equal responsibility parenting the child he helped create. Parenting isn’t easy. Sacrifices are required. He needs to realize this now and start pulling his weight or this is just going to get progressively one-sided

@chenml60 Cosleepy on IG covers this often. Based on her explanation which is based on Sids rates, four months onwards it’s okay to bedshare even if formula feeding. That said, I think only you know if it’s okay for your babe. Are you a heavy sleeper? Do you take prescription meds? How firm is...

@patrick226 You need to forgive yourself for the breastfeeding thing. It doesn’t work out for everyone. It’s not your fault. Your baby will be fine. Forgive yourself. Im also south Asian and I had my baby during peak Covid. It’s hard but your baby is going to be fussy no matter what because...

@patrick226 That’s a staggering long time for dad and baby to be separated. He will never get this time back with baby. If there are other options that can support you while keeping your family unit intact, I’d explore those. Why do you feel trapped where you are?

@omnitude I had a scheduled c sec too because he was breech so 7 lbs with all the extra fluid from c sec drugs. Realistically he was 6 lbs 13 oz or so. 39 weeks

@patrick226 I think you’re fine to travel but all I’ll say is that it sounds like you could use some counselling. Being a new mom is hard and going to your home country may or may not ease some difficulties but it’s not going to be a magic wand to improve your mental health or milk supply. I...
