August 2023 Babies 🇺🇸

I’m currently 7 weeks with baby #2. Haven’t seen an obgyn bc im currently waiting to get approved for insurance. I’m very uncomfortable like my back hurts sometimes when im sitting for too long my sides hurt when I do a lot of movement, and just overall. I never had any symptoms like this with babygirl so this is definitely new to me. Unsure if this is even normal this early 😕

motherhood is lonely because you reach out to 6 other people besides family to chat or vent they don't respond for days at a time and by then it's over and no point.... I'm going nuts

So I started skipping naps recently so she would go to sleep early (8pm) she wakes up at 9 or 10.

But thats a longgg wake window. Its supposed to be around 5-6 hours of wake window.

Yesterday she woke up at 9am and she napped for two hours at 2:30. Then i got her to sleep around 9:30pm. Welp she woke up at 7am 🥲

Should i keep the schedule from yesterday? Or tweak it somehow? Helppp. I like waking up at 9 bc I have a one year old that still wakes up in the morning 😭🫩

So I have been potty training my 3 year old son and on first day he had bare bum out and had 8 accidents however I got pull-ups for naps/ bedtime or if we go out for all day.

He peed on toliet very well yesterday however not pooped.

Peed every 10-15mins but after nap time he held for every 20mins

And today is day 2 and today he had 3 accidents and one leak as today he went out all day?

This morning he done well on toliet and peed but then poop on potty training pants.

He kept the pull up dry on nap time and last night bedtime.

Today he held or 30mins or 45mins

Is that meaning he doing ok or is that just me?

Hey mommas, looking for any tips. My 3 year old is sleep trained but for the last two weeks he's been waking up every night between 1-3am crying saying he wants to come sleep in our bed. We've let him in our bed a couple times but have kept the separation in general. I'm pregnant now so we really need him to want to stay in his room. We compromise with him at night to leave the door open for his room, but we don't want to keep doing this because we live in a single story and when the baby comes the noises will wake him up. Side note, he's still in his crib so he can't get far. Our ped said to transfer him to a bed, but now I fear he's gonna just walk to our room. He has light in his room, we've asked him if he's scared and what he wants but he says he wants to come sleep in momma and daddas room. Any suggestions are welcome. This pregnanct momma can't keep waking up every night because it's been increasingly harder to get back to sleep. Help please.
