Once they grow up a bit, they’ll be on solid food and will probably empty half our fridge. image

I’d eat way more if I actually had the time.. image

Look, I get it... ☕

Yesterday just completely drained me. For the first time ever, I actually ran dry.

Everyone here is obsessed with dogs, but I’m actually sitting here thinking about getting a little cow... or maybe just a goat. 🥱

Grace Sanders24 said:Has he learned anything yet?😲

Yeah...

He usually just goes, "Yes, honey... You're right, honey... Goddammit..."

Basically, that's the pattern. 😁

@stormygardener93/">@@stormygardener93, that might be a trick question! 😁

@Grace Sanders24/">@@Grace Sanders24, Hans is learning because he actually wants to, it's not like anyone's forcing him... 🙂

Walter Baker2... If he’s talking like that, I wouldn't be with him. I've run into people like that before, but I've met way more people who don't discriminate—people who would make those first types shut their mouths pretty quick. Maybe you've heard of the "Black Lives Matter" movement against racism.
Anyway, these topics belong in other threads or PDFs.

The little one is going to learn American alongside Dad 🧐

He just smiles after eating and that’s about it... I think the actual laughing starts around the second month. People say he’s such a serious kid, though. He's probably already contemplating the global recession or something... 😁

Wiki, can you see if I'm going to win the Powerball in an ultrasound? Or maybe Mustachio can read my future in coffee grounds...? 🤔

We’re basically studying our baby’s babbling just to figure out why they're fussing or crying... Most of the time, "NEH" means they're hungry, "EAAAAR" means they've got gas or a tummy ache, and "EH EH EH EH" means they need to burp.

Well, you aren't far off.🤔

Anthony Nguyen81 said:I’ve been dark-skinned since birth 🤣
and my oldest 😁
My wife has a similar complexion, but she’s fair-skinned 😁
The other two kids aren't quite as dark as the oldest; they're a bit lighter.

The hair color is actually pretty interesting—there's a subtle gradient.
My wife is the lightest, and as you go down to the younger kids, they get progressively lighter 🤣
Not to mention how skin tones can darken over time.

Based on that, your fourth kid might end up even fairer with light eyes 🙂so the baby will have some blue-eyed comradeship going on. 🙂

I have no idea how much of a handful I was during labor, 🤔 but they told me I was like a little dandelion, constantly scowling.

Walter Baker2 said:I was actually blonde until about fourth grade. Everyone called me "Goldie," but then my hair started darkening and the nickname finally died out.

Smoking can definitely make hair darken faster. My late grandfather was a total blonde when he was a kid. If I hadn't seen old photos, I wouldn't believe it, because all I remember is him having dark hair.

Grace Anderson3, I know this is rough and you’re feeling lost on what to do when things get this intense. 🙂

I can only tell you what I've seen around me. Most Babies deal with colic; they cry and struggle constantly. For some, it drags on until they're 6 months old, while others get through it sooner and much easier.

A friend of mine figured out her Baby gets cramps depending on what she eats. Once she cut out peas, cabbage, and spicy foods, things got way better. You might want to try tracking if your diet affects those cramps.

Probiotic drops helped some people too.

Everyone used to say you shouldn't hold your Baby constantly because they'll get used to it, so everyone ended up holding them day and night anyway. Honestly, all you can do is try everything. 🙂

Baz 🙂 I just saw this post because we were both posting at the same time yesterday and I missed it. I cut out foods that cause bloating. But, honestly, it might have been that grilled chicken because Hans bought seasoned pieces instead of plain ones. I also suspect it could be from a tea I was drinking for some mild bladder irritation; I jumped on prevention quickly because I really don't want a doctor putting me on antibiotics, since then I wouldn't be allowed to breastfeed.🤷

hiddenmarlin14 said:That’s exactly why they make up some random infection just to keep you staying longer. 🐔 Even my mom got spooked by the nurses; they kept pointing out "moles" on her face, but they were in different spots every single day. My mom was losing her mind—what kind of mole just migrates around like that? 🤦

So, you were a very sweet Baby. image

Walter Baker2 said:The nurses picked out my name, so I've loved them ever since.

Were you a sweet Baby though...? 🍿

Grace Sanders24 said:😍
That's how my mom still treats me today.🕺

... how about you? 🍿
Bobby! in Off-topic ·
Hehe... thanks, guys. He’s still at the hospital, basically running circles around all the nurses. 😁

Morning, everyone. Hope things are staying chill on your end too..

Yeah! 😍 😍

I don't touch beans, cabbage, or half the other stuff on the grocery list... Thanks, Walter Baker2!
We’re getting two tool sets for the house: a heavy-duty kit for Dad and a little rubber one for the kid image

Nicole Myers said:It just hit me—one of my friends had a baby who slept like an absolute dream while she was working as a dishwasher. I should probably mention she worked nonstop; she’d just pop the little one in a bouncer and bring them right into the kitchen with her. 😬

Was the kid hanging out in the kitchen later too? image

stormygardener93 said:this was playing 🙂🙂

I could have guessed that. 🙂

Hans says he’s going to record the sound of a power drill and play it for the kid. Apparently, the plan is to see if that gets him hooked on tools from day one. 🤔

stormygardener93 said:Josh, I really value your advice. It’s a shame I didn't come across it sooner. 🙂

I know a kid who was basically out cold from the very first notes of Grdović's hit, and just seconds before that, he was having a total meltdown. 🤣

Did they play "It's Not All About the Money"? 🍿

Walter Baker2 said:So, are you actually going to let him sleep on your shoulder after you eat?

Yeah, I’m doing that... but sometimes you just have to hold them upright in different positions because even after a few burps, they start crying all over again. Today's been okay so far—no spasms. 👍

Walter Baker2 said:The more you hold him, the more he's going to demand it. He won't want to be left alone in the playpen. There's one trick: once he's full, put him over your shoulder with his head tilted back so he can burp. Otherwise, he'll just keep throwing up until he does. Just keep a burp cloth on your shoulder

We have at least two of those cloths in every room. He hasn't thrown up on me yet.

hiddenmarlin14 said:A dad told us about how they used to put classical music headphones on their baby during diaper changes, and it made the whole process way easier 🤔—and they aren't even musicians, let alone classical ones 🤔

With some babies, it isn't even about the music. It’s just finding any sound that happens to soothe them 🤔 One woman I knew actually recorded the sound of a hairdryer and played it whenever she needed to calm her baby down 🤔

Grace Sanders24 said:Don't sweat it. I was screaming every time my mother changed my clothes, even in high school...

🤣 🤣
Your mother probably earned her retirement through you. 🙂
Grace Sanders24 said:Basically, Baby's just unhappy with his outfit choice, and that's that...

Next time I'll dress him in this.
