Does anyone else get irritated when you hear "you gotta do this, you gotta do that" especially from someone who is not even a mom themselves?
@lovelily, I know but she thinks I need to put him in his own room but I'm not ready to do that yet
@taraduffy79 You do know that sleep training is not the CIO method, right? I sleep trained my daughter without the CIO method.
Sleep train? Really? Can't believe anyone actually lets their babies cry to sleep if they can help it. Tell them to take their criticism elsewhere and keep if for when they become the parent 😒😞
Nobody knows best than you. Many people will disagree, but from the little experience that I have, every baby is different and the mom always knows best. Remember when you were pregnant and you knew he was ok? It's the same instincts. You know best. You have the best connection to him. Just listen to those instincts and tell everyone else to fuck off (in a slightly nicer way maybe). I know I only have one kid, but my mommy instincts tell me I know best, just like I'm sure yours do
@thebombmom, seriously like it's annoying enough when it comes from someone who is a mom but then when it comes from someone who is overwhelmed taking care of a dog so she says like don't try to tell me what I have to do with my infant when you can't even manage a dog without being stressed
Omg you have no idea. I have at least 10 people telling me what I gotta do, but I just listen to my instincts.... Even when it comes to my husband
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...

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
@gabriellerose My comment was directed to another poster.
My 1 year old has a crib in my room. She's fine, I'm fine. She has a bed time, but before that I feed her very well so she won't wake up hungry, and bathe her. Until my daughter can sleep in a toddler bed she will continue to sleep in my room. I don't see why some people see that as an issue.
