Random thoughts:

  • If you’re nursing, are you avoiding caffeine?
  • When you put him down, have you tried both “scooped” (like a snug-a-puppy) and flat (like a bassinet) surfaces?
  • Have you tried Happiest Baby on the Block soundtrack? (Hair dryer one sometimes works for our second. Always worked for our first.)
  • Pacifiers? (If you’re not opposed to them and his latch is pretty established)
  • Have you tried rockers with vibrating motors built in?
  • Do you have a mobile? (We have a cheap one. The really tinny sound works sometimes, even when top-quality versions of the same songs fail to help when played over our high-end speakers)
  • Have you checked his temperature? (I’d recommend using a skin thermometer, such as: Braun Forehead Thermometer https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00EP1ZLO0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_ElgRBbEK6DAY1)
  • If he has a low fever, check with his pediatrician to see whether you should give him baby Tylenol.
  • Does he sleep when you take him for a drive?
  • When you swaddle, do you make it tight enough that he can’t wriggle at all? (I recommend SwaddleMe, the straight jacket of swaddles)

    Hopefully something in here helps? Good luck!

I also have a bunch of stuff on my registry that is inexpensive ($10-$25) for friends and if my coworkers decide to do a shower here which they have done for other new moms in the past. Here are some of the things I have on mine
Sleeping gowns so you don't have to unsnap the onesie for midnight changes

A baby tub

Tub Thermometer

Baby thermometer

Nose Frieda which others have mentioned

preferred bath/care products

Cloth diaps which make fantastic burp cloths/cleanup

Nursing pillow also good for tummy time


Plus some other odds and ends. People will also buy stuff that they like, so you'll probably get stuff that was not on your list and that is ok. You can also request to have a "diapers n wipes" shower which a friend did since she was on her 4th child, and she probably got 2 months worth of diapers and wipes out of it if not more. Also, make sure you get multiple covers for your changing pad, it'll be nice to have more than 1 when it needs washing! Congratulations!

Where do I start? I'm 19, a premedical student at SUNY, University at Buffalo.

Over the summer my brother was diagnosed and passed away from an extremely rare form of stomach cancer at the age of 37. The doctors told us that in their 30+ years they haven't seen this kind of cancer in someone under the age of 70.

During that time I developed similar symptoms, nausea, extreme weight loss, GERD, etc. My doctor ran the whole shabang, CT w/ contrast, Barium Swallow, Blood Tests, Upper GI Endoscope. I just had some stomach inflammation, probably from the stress, and IBS from the stress. That since has gone away. But those tests came over the course of weeks. I was fantasizing about the worst everyday.

Fast forward into the semester, I'm doing fine, until I hear about this ebola thing on the news. For the first couple weeks I joke about it and how the media exaggerates it like its in the water system. Until I get a bit sick (probably a cold, around a 99.5ish temp) two weeks ago. I obsessed about symptoms and checked my temperature every ten minutes, all in the 99.0 - 99.3 range for the last 12ish days. I don't even know how accurate my thermometer is, since its a forehead one.(http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EP1ZLO0/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1)

I finally started getting over the ebola panic until I stumbled upon this article,(http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/09/03/rare-infection-prompts-neti-pot-warning/?_r=0), then I realized that I used one of the squinter bottle variations to clean my sinuses Nov. 5 - 7. I didn't use tap water, but I may have used filtered water from my own water filter thing that my dad installed. I think I boiled that water too, but I don't remember, but I'm 90% sure I did. I spent around 5 hours last night researching my water filter and the bacteria the causes the infection. I finally calmed down when I realized I probably would have been dead by now and that I don't even think this bacteria lives in upstate NY, since it's too cold...but I'm still counting the days...


Jeeez, I could go on forever, but ya, it sucks. I used to have a little hypochondriacal attitude, but never this bad. My stomach problems are coming back, probably the irritable bowel syndrome. But damn, ever since I read about that bacteria it kicked in my hypochondria hardcore mode.

I take 0.5 mg of Clonazepam as needed. Normally every couple of days before bed.

Oh wow! Congrats! My cousin just has a baby and she had dozens and dozens of diapers on hand. Never enough. Also some first aid supplies, for a thermometer I'd suggest one of the forehead ones because it can be hard for the baby to hold it in their mouth long enough to get a good reading. Here's one I found on amazon, but you can always get it at a drug store :)
