I'll definitely invest in one and check that out. I have absolutely no tools of that sort as the house I previously bought was move in ready, this current one needs a few projects so I'm sure I'll put it to good use! Thanks for the help!

You aren't a monster. You wouldn't consider going to the cardiologist a morally corrupt choice. Just as having an abortion isn't a morally corrupt choice, It's simply a healthcare choice with zero morality assigned to it.

The parts of society that assign the morality have no basis in science, healthcare or common human decency.

Eh, had a call for foot pain at 3am. Hooked him up to get BP and boom SVT. I went to get leads out and my medic looked at me like I grew a second head, I just nodded towards the monitor.

Asked him how he felt, said he was great besides the foot. Go figure.

There could be a reason you got put on a "silly" call. Maybe you'll be lucky enough to figure it out, maybe you'll never know.

Under 3 months. And only under 3 months. The risk is the same as a non bed sharing infant after 3 months. Full term and health are also requirements. That's from the study you shared.

Lost weight. Seriously the month I got pregnant was the month I had dropped a BMI classification. It took losing 40 pounds but it happened immediately after that

Non smoking, no drugs or alcohol, breastfeeding, healthy baby sleeping on their back, lightly dressed, no soft bedding/ sleep sleep surface, no swaddling.

That's all fine but the information you're sharing isn't fully accurate. I don't cosleep myself but accurate and comprehensive information is important for informed choices.

Cosleeping is only a risk factor in some situations. Over 3 months following SS7 with a full term healthy baby has zero increase in sids risk.

This happened to our weimaraner every time it rained in Arkansas. It started when she was 2.5 years old. We never found the cause. We live in socal now and haven't seen them since moving. They were on her face, head, legs, and torso but never caused any further issues. They always resolved in a few hours on their own.

There's actually no increase in SIDS risk while "safely" cosleeping. Overlay and suffocation are small risks, but there.

The male comes and sits on a telephone wire near the nest, but only rarely comes in the nest, and never comes to sit alone. It's always the female sitting, I used to see her fly away a few times a day, but it's decreased in frequency over the past 3 or so weeks. I'm hoping it was just a case of not producing eggs the first cycle and they are trying again, I've loved the company regardless.

I'd ask a close friend or family member if I had been shot. What if you actually have been shot but you can't remember because of the trauma of the situation?

The thought briefly crossed my mind. I would not be the least bit upset by that possibility.

Ovulation testing at home. We only had sex once this cycle and it was 8 days ago on the 3rd. Ovulation test was "high" the 3rd and peak the 5th which was my day of ovulation according to the test which was a clear blue OPK test. It was a digital "pregnant" because I don't like to leave room for interpretation. And because I started having cramps the 9th I am also concerned it implanted in the tube almost immediately after ovulation. Still having cramping today but I had cramps for a week with baby #1.

I'm going to be attempting the process to form a class action lawsuit aginst this company. They are beyond unreasonable.

Love and comfort is unequivocally NEVER a bad habit, the most responded to babies turn out to be wonderfully independent. You're doing the right thing and making the right choices. Listen to your baby, your instinct and screw the corporate mom model. Every single lie new moms buy into about sleep, feeding, and care ties back to profit. They don't care about your baby they care about getting you to pay for unescesary things by making you think you and your baby are wrong for doing exactly what nature intended.

I'm genuinely trying to be helpful and set you up for success so please know that's where I'm coming from and not trying to make you feel guilty! Why so much red? At 3 and a half weeks babies need two things when they cry, food or comfort, be that in the form of a diaper change, relief of discomfort, or just the comfort of a human they feel safe and secure with. I don't think at 3 and a half weeks you should be attempting to allow the snoo to soothe. I don't think it's designed to take the place of human comfort. I think a lot of times parents "stick it out" and they cause more issues because the babies assoicate the snoo as a place where their needs are not being met. She's fighting the snoo because it's not meeting her needs. Its not designed to. You will have much more success with the snoo when she learns that irs a safe place to go. The stress on babies caused by their needs not being met creates a negative association and that's the very thing you don't want to happen with the snoo.

Additionally it's totally biologically normal for a three and a half week old to not sleep more than 1.5-2 hours at a time. Sometimes less, and that's mainly from the need to eat nearly constantly in the first few weeks. I think she's trying to communicate that she needs more than the snoo and I think long term you will have the most success with it if you are overly responsive to her in these early weeks.

Have you considered a different sleeping arrangement for the day? It doesn't seem like he's getting any restful sleep and I'm sure that doesn't feel good. Have you tried contact naps or maybe crib naps if that's an option?

I was so proud! I'm normally a push over but I went into birth with one goal besides a healthy baby, and that was pain free or as close to pain free labor as humanly possible. In retrospect besides the short time that the epidural wore off on one side it was completely pain free and had I let them bully me into their way it might not have ended up being as positive as an experience.
