This is a re-watch for me, and I just have to say that I love how natural your conversations are. You can get from sleep training to a talk about how to live within different cultures where there might be chaos and societal problems. Love it!
I'm behind on these episodes... But all babies are good babies. Not all babies are easy babies. Compliance/ease is not the same as goodness! We have done bed sharing since day 1 (well, day 4, because of hospitals...) (thankfully, a friend blazed that trail for me) and our daughter did go to daycare for 5 weeks! She has been the most independent sleeper since she was around 4, and she's 11 1/2 now! The other three have had varying levels of independence, but overall... Bedsharing FTW. Loving finally catching up on the podcast!
I so enjoy listening to you two. I'm way beyond the infant and sleep issue years with my kiddos (yeah, they are in their twenties, so I better be -- ha ha). Some of your discussions bring me back to when I was the weirdo crunchy mom and struggling with not being mainstream, but just knowing I was doing the best I knew how. Did I make mistakes? Yup. But the kiddos are now amazing adults doing the best with what they know and believe -- and I'm so proud of them! You guys are genuine, you look stuff up (thank you) and are light hearted and wholesome. Thanks for being you, sharing your humour with your comedy reels, and now, your thoughts on everyday stuff. May your ducks always face one another! (I'm sure that's from a previous podcast, but I'm all out of order now that you moved them to this new channel... ha ha).
When you let a child cry it out it means that they have lost all hope that help is coming. Children cry because they need something. If you let them cry it out you are denying them their needs and they'll stop crying when they become hopeless. personally I wouldn't co-sleep with an infant just because if I rolled over onto them or something and they suffocated in our sleep I would never be able to forgive myself.
The good baby. We had the perfect baby. So much that my oldest brother was like. Its wrong how good she is lol, but I remember my chiropractor saying " you must be doing it right, cause shes so well behaved" and i said "we're new parents, we're doing what we can but i think we could be doing the same things with a different child and theyd act completely differently. Its all her personality and who she is" and i still believe that. For at least 90% of how she was. I know i shouldve taken it as a compliment but i want more kids and I hate to think I oranyone else would think of them as a bad baby if they fuss or cry more etc.
My littlest is 18 months in my bed with me still nurses through the night and nurses on demand during the day. My eldest NEVER did any of it. She did not want to be snuggled and such. She weaned super fast. Not only will it be different for each family but each child. If I ever tried to let my youngest cry it out she would cry until her voicebox burst. She is way too stubborn for that. I am pro whatever works best for your family. A tired mom and dad do not serve well. Tired babies do not learn well or enjoy the day.
My dad is a pastor and believes in the cry it out method, but. I cant imagine him claiming biblically that thats the only or best way or God designed etc. 😂 thats pretty wild!

A children's story podcast would be great
I think I could listen to you two talk about any topic. Haha
