Parenting after a Loss

BPF and a thank you

So here's my little girl earlier this morning, if your on the CD board you already saw it but it's so cute I can't help but share, she usually screams every time I change her clothes or diaper so I was very excited!

Thanks to all the ladies who recommended the RNP for my lo. It wasn't an instant fix and to be honest at first I thought it was just another waste as she seemed to hate it at first as well, but the last two nights Annabelle slept exclusively in it! After over a month of her screaming for hours any time we tried to get her to sleep anywhere other than in bed with us (including in the RNP at first) it was so nice to have her out of our bed for the entire night (aside from feedings of course). I'm amazed how easy it was to put her down the last two nights, I just swapped out myself for the paci when she'd start falling asleep hold her for a minute until she was sucking on the paci and then put her in the RNP. Some how it worked out quite well even tho she wasn't completely asleep when I set her down and each time she got up to eat she went back down just as easily. I'm trying not to get too excited about it but after two seamless nights and even getting her to fall asleep in it again while I took a shower and made and ate breakfast this morning I can't help but get a little giddy.

  • Cute! My DD wouldn't sleep in the RnP at first either, she liked the little newborn napper thing that came with the pack n play. Now she loves her RnP, and sleeps well in it.

  • She's so cute! Glad the RnP is working for you. It took a little bit for D to warm up to it too but then he really liked it. I was very sad when he outgrew it.

    Yes it is a lil joey diaper, they're the only diaper that currently fits her tiny legs. 

  • Cute diaper and adorable LO! 

    I agree about the RNP, my DS wouldn't lay flat anywhere. He doesn't even really his swing. I'm a little worried about when he grows out of it and we have to transition him to the crib but its been a lifesaver for us for these last few weeks.

    It's a lil Joey diaper by Rumparooz. She had tiny little legs so this is the only diaper she fits into yet, I had to scramble to find enough of them from Ebay and Diaperswappers to get by until she gets big enough for her p&ns. I still have to do laundry every 1-1.5 days but it's doable for now.

    I know how you feel! I figured DD was going to be on the small size so we bought GMD newborn workhorses and Thirsties XS covers. She wore those for two months plus before I tried putting her in her OS diapers.

    heh I sold off her newborn workhorses to buy lil joeys because the leg holes were huge for her. Her xs thirsties cover is huge too but I still have that lying around.
