@JenaFriedman We have a 10 month old. Bring toys outside and play. Read books. Sing songs. Carry him and look at things. Count down the hours until it’s nap time again.
@JenaFriedman We did it as our son (now 5 months) was only sleeping 3 hours at a time. It was a night and a half of hell. My husband did the check ins and I put in ear plugs. 🥴 He would go in after 12 min increments and say I love you. Our son now sleeps 12 hours a night and it was worth it!
I’m 5 years past being part of the “youth vote” and that hurts my head but also I’m so proud of younger voters for getting out there and doing the thing #GenZVoterTurnout#GenZ
@JenaFriedman I feel like we haven’t talked about it in the past and it’s just when one woman opens up the convo (like you are doing) the floodgates open and everyone has a story to share. First time mom here and appreciate the support I get from my other mom friends.
@laurakr415@cctex@clhubes@JenaFriedman Ah yes! 7 months of nausea and every moment said to my husband “yeah we’re a one and done” but he’s here and just so wonderful. Also, thanks for creating this space @JenaFriedman for moms and partners to be real about this postpartum experience. Just finishing my 4th trimester.
My baby just turned 3 months today which also is means the end of my 4th trimester. Healing, breastfeeding, sleep deprivation are all a part of this. Our country needs to take better care of our mothers and women should ALWAYS have a say in what happens to their bodies. #vote
Hi! The global Jewish population has still not rebounded from the Holocaust. There were 16.6 million Jews in 1939, then 6 million of us were annihilated in a genocide that happened when "It's A Wonderful Life" came out in movie theaters, and now there are 14.8 million of us.
@mindykaling@neverhaveiever I was four days post partum and feeling “blue”
