As a mom of 5 I can attest to the truth of this too! 🖤

“Put them in water or take them outside.” It was the first useful parenting advice I ever got. “Sleep when the baby sleeps”? I think the polite word for that gem is poppycock. But this particular axiom has saved me many times over.

I don’t remember how old my son was when I called my mom in tears because I couldn’t stop his, but his age was probably measured in weeks. Maybe days. “Nothing is working; I don’t know what else to try,” I sobbed. “He’s not hungry or sleepy or wet.” “Try giving him a bath,” she suggested. “Or bundle him up and take him outside for some fresh air. I always say to take them outside or put them in water, and usually, the grumpiness goes away.” It worked that day, and it’s worked many times since. We’ve done baths at 10 a.m. I’ve paced our driveway with a baby in my arms at 2 a.m. And today, at 5:15 p.m. when my children were fighting for the 17th time since they got home from school and I was about to lose it, instead I put one in the bath and I sent the other outside and now maybe all three of us will survive until Dad gets home.
Almost nine years later, it still works.
I can’t give you advice about sleep schedules or feedings or Montessori-approved toys. I don’t know what we’re gonna do about Tik Tok and Snapchat in a few years. But when they’re falling apart at the seams for no apparent reason, take them outside or put them in water.
Oh, and it works on grown-ups, too."

Haga! 😍

The innocent new dad questions are so endearing. 😅😅 We've also heard many partners say innocent-yet-hilarious things during labor, too! What innocent-yet-hilarious thing has your partner said during their transition to parenthood?

Nuchal cords are a variation of normal! The cord is made of squishy Wharton’s jelly which allows oxygen to continue to be provided to your baby. Here is a great evidence based post from the fabulous Aviva Romm, MD

Hospitals in several countries saw dips in premature births, which could be a starting point for future research.

One of the few positive things about all this chaos. ❤️

Nationwide, expectant parents are avoiding the hospital and turning to midwives.

Look at our baby who was born this morning. Her entire back was covered with that thick white, pasty substance called vernix caseosas. This substance is covering the skin of the fetus during the last trimester of pregnancy. Vernix coating protects the skin and facilitates extra-uterine adaptation of the skin during the first week of life. It protects our babies against bacteria and infections while it also keeps baby’s skin soft and supple. Don’t wipe it off or wash it away. Wait a few days before giving baby his or her first bath.
