April 2016 Moms

Baby, I love you, but could you please...

STOP kicking up a storm when I change your dirty diapers!! That'd be greaaaat.

Baby logic: Hates to be dirty. Fights you during a diaper change. Little monster, haha!

What crazy things does your LO do?

Re: Baby, I love you, but could you please...

  • Go back to sleeping at night. I love how alert you are during the day but momma likes her sleep. And you're still not old enough to belly sleep.
  • Loading the player...
  • Taking a freaking pacifier!!  I can not be the human pacifier...because then you eat too much and are a pain until you throw up and I am sick of doing laundry and constantly smelling like baby spit up.

    And yes she's been checked for reflux.

  • Please nap in places other than the Moby wrap. My back is not happy. 
    @Ready4theParty ditto on the pacifier. Tried all of the brands. He acts like they're torture and gets super pissed.
  • @K&Elizabeth @Ready4theParty have you tried putting a little of your milk on the pacifier before you offer it? We had to do that with our baby. It took several days but she came around to it and seems to like it now. 

    Also we tried every brand under the sun and the only one that she tolerated is the Mam.
  • ...slow down when you're eating. LO chomps on the boob as if it's the last time he'll ever get to eat. There's more where that came from. :lol:

  • @runningwild Same here. My Dh thought I was crazy for getting a bunch of different pacifiers. Now he gets it. She refuses all other pacifiers - she makes a face like we gave her hot sauce, then spits the paci out at us. She's so dramatic :D

  • Here's another - stop putting your fist in your mouth when I'm trying to feed you. You know nothing is coming out of there. 

    It drives me nuts when she does this. She clenches so hard and it's impossible to move her arm away. Then she starts screaming because she's hungry and clearly I'm not feeding her. *rolls eyes*
    This!!!!

    ...just wait one sec while I unhook this nursing tank, no need to be upset!


    So much this
  • @runningwild we tried the milk thing a bit but I am off to pick up several brands this am that I can't get at the local target and I am desperate so I will be soaking those suckers.

    I don't think the pacifier would be such a big deal if she could just stop soothing on the boob.  DD1 refused one but did OK with soothing herself without one.

  • I know how you feel about the boob thing. :s

    Even with a pacifier, my baby still wants the comfort sometimes. She ends up falling asleep on my boob. Then she nibbles the nipple in her sleep, and the feeling of it drives me crazy. It doesn't hurt, it's just....annoying, like an itch. But, taking it away wakes her and I don't always have the energy to deal with that.

  • ...stop screaming and crying every minute that you're awake and not on a boob? He gives me about 3 content minutes after a feed, but then it's crankiness. Looks like I've got another colicky baby.

    I'm right there with you. If he's not on the boob or sleeping in the Moby, he's screaming. My new mantra is "this, too, shall pass". I think it's harder on my daughter. She's so routine driven and Thomas is throwing her off her game with all his unpredictability. I can't imagine how you're coping with 3 other kiddos .
  • ... Stop having a cold! It hurts my heart to see you go through it. Even though I caught it from you and am two days behind you on it. Experiencing what you are and not being able to do much about it is heart breaking.

    A couple weeks ago, I remember responding to your post about colic. My first did nothing but scream for 5.5 mos. It seems like it takes forever, but you're right, it will pass.

  • @Ready4theParty Have you tried the mam pacifier, my little man rejected all but that one. They are my favorite baby item so far!
