Is anyone here a working mom? I work full time as a pedi ER nurse on night shift. The demands of this job are astronomical and are VERY stressful but I absolutely love what i do. I just worry that it is hard on my daughter because lately she has been acting increasingly attached. She wants to sleep next to me, eat sitting on my lap, to be held everywhere we go. last night she lost it when I was heading to work. I reassured her I would be back in the morning, gave her lost of kisses but she...

Valentina had a fun pool day this weekend. How are all your little ones doing?

Considering Hospice Nursing

Anyone work as a nurse in Hospice in this group? How does it affect life with two kids? I'm contemplating a job change but I want to make sure it is something I can reasonably manage. My husband works a lot so I deal with most of the child raising and want a job that will not conflict with being a mommy. What are the hours like? I work as a skilled nurse for medically fragile/medically complex in the home setting so I've seen a lot.

Well, Valentina loves Santa. ???

Barney and friends is a hit! Thank goodness too bc dd wants to be held ALL the time ?. I finally get my break! ?

Came home to this goofy girl. Love this milestone! ?

Valentina will be 9 months next week and is officially crawling today!! She skipped army crawling entirety and just went straight to traditional crawling. She is also trying to pull up in everything. So proud of this little girl. ?

Baby not sleeping through the night

I am so tired!!!!!! My dd use to sleep all night and a few weeks ago started sleep regression. I don't know if it's teeth or what but I'm so tired I could die. She also needs to be rocked back to sleep in the middle of the night and it is killing me!!!! How do I get her back to sleeping through the night? I feel like a total zombie???

Babbling

Any November moms still waiting for their babies to babble consonants like Mamama dadada? My lo hasn't started yet and I'm trying not to worry. She also isn't army crawling, pulling to stand or scooting... We see the ped in a week and I'm going to bring it up. I just feel worried that she is falling behind.. She will be 8 months on the 23rd.

Postpartum depression

Lately I feel like I just cannot cope. I have a son with with autism and a daughter that is 7 months old. Im worried about her development and i just cannot go through therapies and Doctors again. I'm losing energy and feel like a terrible mom. I can never go anywhere. My husband doesn't understand. I just want to feel better. Anyone else struggle with ppd? What helped? I already got a prescription from my Obgyn but it will take some time to get it thanks to insur...
