We had a lot of gender disappointment when I found out at 10weeks that we were having a boy. My husband especially. Because he took a long time to get on board with the idea of having a baby, and when he envisioned it, it was always a little girl. So we knew that, more than likely, we’ll have only one child. So when he saw the Y chromosome, we struggled. We were excited for the baby, but, like you said in your post, so sad. My husband especially, struggled for the next 29weeks & 4 days with the idea of having a son, some days more than others.And when I spoke about it semi-publicly (not with families or friends, but an online community) we were hit with nothing but backlash. It’s a hard thing to talk about and accept, then another to let other people know they’re not alone in this feeling, especially if people are just going to attack you. But until you’re not the position, you don’t understand. And you can NOT control how you feel. You’re not any less grateful for the baby, nor do you love it any less, but you’re at an internal conflict. I could write a whole novel on our GD & pregnancy journey, but this comment is getting long enough.But for any other mommas & poppas out there experiencing Gender disappointment, it passes! Even if it feels like it won’t. It will. Even though my husband kept the whole pregnancy at arms length, once that little man was in his arms, he was melted butter. Now, at 8 months old, I like to tease my husband about it since they’re thick as thieves. They’re peanut butter & jelly. He’d give up anything and everything for that boy.

Help! Diaper Rash and Diarrhea :(

My LO has a pretty bad diaper rash on his bum and he is having such a hard time when I try to change him or clean him up. I can tell he's in pain when he is using the bathroom and when I change him. The difficult part is he also has a little diarrhea. I'm breastfeeding and he usually poops a little with every change but right now it's pretty wet. I had let him lie naked for a little while but he poops so often that it's difficult for his bum to dry out. I feel so bad. I'm putting desitin extra strength and A&D. Any other suggestions? He's just over a month and it breaks my heart to see him in so much pain while I'm changing him

My 11 week old had a bum rash that turned out to be a yeast rash at his 2 month checkup, not just a diaper rash like I thought. He was prescribed a medicated ointment that cleared it up. Maybe something worth checking in to to either confirm or rule out.

I need help thinking of a boy name!

I cannot for the life of me think of a boys name that we both like. I LOVE unique names, they can’t be too common. And my Fiancé HATES last names (which is funny because my last name is 10 letters long and his is 4 lol)Our son is named Niklaus (Ni-Klaus, like Blouse but with a K) and we normally just call him Klaus. I am having no luck with names 😣 my fiancé likes the name Kai, but I’m not a huge Fan of kids names starting with the same letter, which I know technically Niklaus and Kai don’t, but we just call our son Klaus. So I need help ladies! I need unique, rare, not too long, doesn’t start with a N or a K names! My last name is Smitherman, and fiancés last name will be Zylus, but baby will be having my last name until my fiancé and I get married.

Kai is becoming very popular. I hear it all the time where we’re at. What did you come up with?

Looks like slugs. Extremely seedy green breastfed poop

Is this amount of seedy/chunky poop normal? My son is 9 weeks old and is exclusively breastfed. He’s been having green poos for 6 weeks now, but the past week they have been extremely fatty?Seriously looks like a pile of slugs to me.

Re

Looks normal to me!

Does anyone know what this rash is? It started roughly 6-8 weeks ago but with no color and it just seemed like a dry spot. Today it looks like this. It doesn’t bother him at all. No new foods introduced. Thanks!

I did that with my youngest son too. He was extremely low. My water ended up breaking when I was 38 weeks 3 days. It's painful and annoying, but normal is you're carrying really low.

There is a sleep regression around that time, so that's probably why! More than likely it'll go back to normal!

3 month baby doesn’t reach for toys

My prince just turned 3 months yesterday and doesn’t seem interested in reaching for any of the dangling toys on his bouncer,, should i worry at this stage? He seems more interested looking at curtains and chandeliers.. is there an exercise i should do with him to start grabbing things..

My son didn’t care anything about grabbing for toys until he could actually hold them. He just wasn’t interested. I wouldn’t worry just yet.

Pro circumciscion mama’s. What’s was it like? I’m freaking out.

It’s set for tmrw morning.I’ve been googling cuz I asked the front desk what it’s like and she said she had no idea, but knows he will be strapped down. 😢

my son couldnt be circumcised in the hospital when he was born, he had penial torsion. it was basically twisted to the left. we literally just had his penoplasty (thats what our urologist called it since there isnt really an exact term for what they did) .. the procedure was done at the hospital, he was put under anesthesia & had to fast from that morning. he’s almost 9 months old now..honestly, i was stressing our for a while before the procedure. he’s so young & going under anesthesia at any age scared me. mostly, we had family members that really wanted this done too so i sometimes felt this decision was out of my hands....BUT we had a really good doctor & a really good anesthesiologist. once we were at the hospital the nurses came to check on us & everyone asked if we had questions about what was going to happen, which really helped me to feel better about everything. the only downside was that i couldnt go in with him (due to covid).. i had to leave him with them once they got to the surgery hallway..previously, i guess we could hold them when they’re being put under so its not so traumatic for them...baby boy cried a bit once he was waking up, he was a little fussy for the next couple days, and wanted lots of carries but he’s young, he heals fast. i’ve been home with him for a week & aside from taking the bandage off, everything has gone really well. his stitches will dissolve in another week or two but he’s back to his normal self! i feel the choice is 50/50.. theres no right or wrong answer when it comes to circumcision 🤷🏻‍♀️ so do whatever you (and baby’s daddy maybe) feel is best. it took me a while to come to terms with my decision. sadly, i had gotten a bunch of mom shaming when i posted about this for advice a while ago which caused me to freak out alone in my own head up until his procedure. but do what YOU feel is best for your son 🙌🏼 and it will work out ☺️him in his little hospital gown pre-op 🧡 hope everything works out for you! 💞

Happy Easter!!!❤🥚🐣🐰 I can't believe how big hes getting! He'll be 3 months in 2 days!!

I'm a first time mom too , sounds to me your little one is teething

What is this?

My 2 year old has this cut in the crease of his fourth toe. I noticed it a few days ago. The cuts are a little red and looks a little deeper than a paper cut. What could this be from? How should I treat it? Should I take him to the Doctor? 😩🥺

Not worth it. They will just fall off and even if they don't the pee will still get everywhere ( it's not like it absorbs all of it). If you are worried about getting peed on either use a towel to cover or work.on the expose and recover up. I find it easiest to prep the other diaper before I even open his old one, open for a few seconds, close for a few and then change.
