It doesn't answer your question, but we got these cheap Ikea shelves and use them like this (not my pic).
Well we didn’t avoid RSV for too long. Cough since Thursday, positive test on Sunday. Been fairly mild but urgent care prescribed a steroid that made him insanely restless. Hopefully we’re on the other side of it being on day 6/7 of symptoms.
Anyone here ever accidentally give your baby day old formula? Doctor says he’s probably fine and he seems fine now but just curious.
Definitely on occasion. I often would give all 4 of mine when they were newborn-3 months formula that had been out for longer than the recommended 1 hour or whatever it is. We'd refrigerate it and feed it later regularly, don't even worry about it

My oldest turned 10 the other day... which is just bonkers. She's legit thrived since we moved to OK in 2021 with theater/film/commercials and it's been so fun seeing her try out and get so many roles. Insane how big OK is for film/tv industry. Shot this tonight along with some tryout rolls for a bit. Meanwhile, our youngest kid has been sick for the last three days with a fever over 101... took her to the Urgent Care this morning and did any test you could think of and she was negative for all of them (RSV/Covid/Flu/etc), sooooo this is interesting.
our daughter turns 1 a week from today. Just absolute insanity. Still hasn't started crawling. She's soooooooo close
3 year old daughter we are working on potty training but she straight refuses to poop in the potty. Absolutely nothing has worked to get her to stop going in the pull-up. Other 2 kids weren't too bad about potty training, this one is infuriating
We have been trying the training underwear that's thicker and she just ends up peeing in those more often. But then she doesn't poop for 3 days. Trying to figure out the balance Thanks for the advice
yeah we definitely had to deal with that for a few weeks too! I don’t know, maybe it was coincidence, but eventually she didn’t want to have accidents and just built up the courage to use a toilet. Fingers crossed for you guys!
My 10 month old has like all his teeth coming at once and he’s so miserable. He also just started walking
So how real is the 12 month sleep regression? Because we're right there and she's suddenly sleeping horribly lol
My kid hit every sleep regression. It usually lasted a week or two. That’s what I had to tell myself, this sucks but it’s just phase.
yeah mine did too. usually last like a week or so. related: my kid is two and sleeps wants shes asleep but holy hell is it still a fight to get her to go down some nights.
So, sleep training. My wife and I are at a crossroads. Neither of us want to do it, but where she's dreading it because it goes against every single maternal instinct she has, I think that we really should at least give it a try. Even just for one night (not that that would solve anything). But it will really tell us what kind of parents we are. As it stands, we don't really let our daughter cry that much, at least not genuinely. My wife gets anxiety at the mere sound of our her crying whereas I'm a little more resilient (but not by much). I feel like this is something we need to do. There are some nights where our daughter is in bed with us all night. I never wanted to be that type of parent, but we all know about best laid plans when it comes to having kids. A major reason I feel like we need to do this is because we're moving next month to my sister's house and the baby will have her own room (we currently have a one bedroom apt so her crib is in the corner of the room). While that might help, it'll be much different when we have to get out of bed and actually go to the room next door and bring back her into our room to soothe her as opposed to just walking to the corner of the room and picking her up. Not only that, but we don't want to start sleep training there because it will be hard on everyone. They have a six year old next door so that would only add to everyone's stress if he's kept awake by our screaming baby. So I figured with a month left before the move, we try it. If it sticks, hallelujah. If it doesn't, well we tried and we'll keep looking for a solution. Anyone have sleep training advice?
I'm with ya, we're about to ahem.... "try" sleep training as well. He'll sleep in his crib at least, but he has to be completely deep asleep before putting him down, so we want to try and change that. Maybe we fail, maybe we don't, we'll see....
I can’t sleep train because mine likes to make himself throw up if he cries too much. And to top it off he has a stomach virus right now so he’s throwing up every couple of hours anyway
