We're going to bed an hour early tonight. I've already set the clocks ahead and we skipped the nap for the little one to help make sure he goes down. I hate daylight savings time it's such loving bullshit.

watched The Sandlot with my kids and they actually sat through the whole thing and loved it. had a few side-conversations about consent (like you do with movies from the 90s) but overall it's fine.

Yeah my Kindergartner had homework that we gave her so she didn't feel left out when the older kids were being forced to do their homework.

Me, an idiot, a loving moron: six ounces will be enough for the dream feed, you only eat 5 a feeding and it wasn't that long ago. Baby, wise: *screaming at the top of the lungs for more while gurgling because she wants to spit up too*

One year old eats the same amount of breakfast oatmeal I do. Except afterwards he also eats half of his mom's yoghurt. Little dudes can eat.

Proud of myself for handling a situation Daughter trailed off during an activity because she was thinking about a bad dream she had involving bears. Apparently she has them a lot. By the end of the chat we had about bears viz. them being just as scared of you as you are of them etc etc she was talking about how she could fight at least five bears at once, scare them away by bouncing her ball at them and so on. I dunno if it's just false bravado but at least for the time being she seems convinced that bears are nature's biggest pussies. Hopefully that helps with the nightmares

my daughter (15 months) is in many ways the perfect baby: she naps, she sleeps all night, goes to sleep on her own, almost never fussy, smiles a lot. except. boy does she hate diaper changes. it's a huge ordeal, one of us has to hold her down while the other one cleans her up, and it takes her like 20 minutes to calm down. agony. i hope everyone is coping with spring forward today.

i guess one silver lining about the ongoing nap at dayacare/10-11 pm bedtime thing we are enduring with my son is that the time change sleep and bedtime disruption, being only an hour, is surely going to be milder than what happens every weekday lol

My oldest hated diaper changes too, until we found out that he's a gigantic coward and afraid of heights. So instead of him being on a table, we put him on the floor, and he was okay with it again. Might be worth a shot?

i'd change wipes and assume there's some kind of rash thats making it painful also if you get dry wipes and wet them with warm water it feels better than a cold wipe

Oh yeah when you know your kid is going to hate something you gotta plant the seed 20 minutes early and water it constantly so it doesn't come as so much a shock when they finally have to get changed /leave the house /go to goddamn bed

My son (10 months old) doesn't hate changing per se but he has reached the stage where he hates having to lie still long enough to do it. Gotta give him something to play with (either a toy or the clothes you're changing him into) or he's gonna just, like, get up and leave in the middle of it

The drawback is that your child will eventually learn and develop powerful wrestling ground game from this and become an unstoppable champion
