is it wrong to be frustrated that my daughter acts like she can't do certain things with out my help. she plays dumb a lot and I wish I could be like no girl show what you know. she acts like she can't trace or match shapes so shes ask for "mommy finger" to help her so I barely hold her hand and she magically can do it but if I dont hold her hand she just scribbles and acts like she doesnt know the pic is how she traces when I'm "helping her" otherwise it'll just be scribbles all over the page
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no, his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me and did something else with an other girl.... and it's 10:51 am now and he hasn't texted me at all. and after he dropped me off I texted him saying what I felt and nothing. I don't know if I'm over reacting or what or what should i do. do i wait until he text me?
omg... I'm so depressed my child cries more than she doesnt..The only time she's not crying is when she's alsleep.. but she only sleeps 30 minutes each time. she won't sit in her carseat, her crib, pack n play , her swing, bouncer nothing!!! I have to hold ger 24/7 even when she's sleeping or else she will wake up. I'm tired I don't get any sleep nothing soothes her I don't even remember the last time I had enough time to bathe :'( I love her so much but this is so challenging
Opinions on crying it out? My baby is 8 1/2 months old. I've tried the no tears method and it worked a couple times but now it doesn't anymore. I do squats while holding her and rock her (21 lbs baby) for over an hour each nap all for nothing. My friend said she did cry it out and by the 3rd day her baby would only cry 5 minutes and now he's totally fine with sleeping in the crib. Opinions please? I am the only one who actually raises my kid. My fiancé does not help and I have no family that helps. So it is very hard on me. Thank you Edit: because clearly some of the women on here think I'm a monster. I am an EMT. When I go back to work, I will be gone 24 hours at a time. My daughter is almost 9 months old and cries every minute she is not in my arms. As much as I want to comfort her every second of the day, I can't. And it's better I get her used to sleeping on her own now, than not letting her cry and all of a sudden mommys gone for 24 hours at a time and she completely loses it and I can't just get off work to comfort her.

I would leave her but rub her tummy or something to soothe her

@aliya0915, it's so confusing because if I disrupt her while she's sleeping it'll make it worse and she keeps soothing herself by sucking her paci back into her mouth...she's been teething pretty badly lately so I think that's the cause it's just heartbreaking hearing her cry out while still sleeping 😔💔

I know the feeling and just want to pick her up but at the same time don't wake her..,

My boss children do that and also have something called night terrors where they scream and she was told to leave them alone and that it isn't good to wake them! But I would just do whatever you feel is best!

@emilywebb, @heather-sophia. I've been just leaving her but it still makes me feel bad I was mainly curious if I was the only one that was like I'm not about to wake her cause she'll really freak out...Pai's eyes stay closed the whole time and as soon as she sucks her paci back in she's fine again

@firstbaby_girl, I ended up doing that and rubbing on her tummy...she's constipated and teething so it's been a LOOOONG day especially since she REFUSES apple juice and I didn't have any prune juice so I tried using grape juice to help her go and it hasn't helped yet 😔 Idc if she blows up a diaper in the middle of the night and I have to get up bathe her and change her I just want her to gooooo

i know you still give her bm but what about giving her just a little breast milk and then a little juice . that used to make Kyler go easy. does any baby food make her poop? I understand that. having a baby that can't poop is frustrating to both cause they can't go and we are like did you poop yet lol.

I tried giving her some milk then switching to a bottle of watered down Apple juice and she gagged and spit it out so then I tried grape juice and she took that...I stopped giving her cereal bc of the iron and I make her baby food and she has one of those nuby net things so I put some watermelon in it hoping that will help because TMI I know that can help get things moving for me 😂 ...hoping I wake up to poo in the morning, if not I'm calling the dr
