@emmiejoy It brings it back to the point that often sleep training is just being consistent and setting and enforcing healthy boundaries.

@maves I’m so proud of you

@sakura656 What a dreadful woman. I would have asked if she had a recent head injury, because it can drastically change your personality and turn you into a real a$$hole.

@monsieurhauddennifels Babies are such weirdos, aren’t they!

@mazince514 Share baby’s full schedule and routine. Does the last feed end half an hour before baby is placed in the crib awake (not rocked to drowsy)? It’s a schedule issue and a sleep crutch issue, likely. Don’t offer a feed until 1am.

@randomelement I had a loud and unexpected laugh at “ Is it because the plastic-y material works like a little balloon, capturing his farts and slowly releasing it throughout the day? Is he just constantly dutch ovening himself?” You poor thing!

@candies Yes. Be consistent. Make sure the last feed ends half an hour before she goes into her crib awake, and don’t offer a feed until after 3am so it pushes the calories to daytime. Be consistent. Move her to a pack n play if you are worried about her standing up and falling against the bars.

@fcb349 Thank you for sharing this.

@rescuedsheep My first thought.

@bigadolph420 Yes. And is baby on meds for reflux?

@arseniusthesilent I’m glad you pushed back on that.

@seventy Would it also be worth getting a couple of Dr. Brown’s formula pitchers? That way you could make up a whole day’s worth of bottles at once and keep the pitcher in the fridge - just pour bottles as you need them. You can even give them cold from the fridge, which is a lifesaver when...

@ellen45 Yes. Maybe they’re just ignorant, bless them.

@hman Get the person who is closest with her to sit down with her and her lawyer, and get the ball rolling for the life insurance paperwork. People rally around the family in the two weeks after the funeral, but not after. That’s when they’ll need the most help.

@bloodinthewater I don’t know what the program is but daycare babies take a couple of weeks to get used to putting themselves to sleep and then often work it out really well and sleep when the other kids sleep.

@drrick And do Eve Rodsky’s Fair Play cards to rebalance the mental and domestic load.

@question In the first eight weeks and only in a bassinet or crib. No swaddles otherwise.

@mirchev Is it a sucking reflex? If so, introduce a pacifier. If you’re sure it’s hunger, then feed. Check in with baby’s doctor if you’re not sure.

@celise This is good!

@erikaleanne I’m so happy for you!
