  2. Does your baby seem to nap best when they’re lying on your chest? You are NOT alone! 😴⁣ ⁣ I’m Brooke a Pediatric NP 👋🏼 Follow @simplywell.baby to learn more about your baby or toddler.⁣ ⁣ It’s common for babies to nap on their caregivers, especially when they’re small & when they’re not feeling well as older babies or toddlers.⁣ ⁣ 🙅🏻‍♀️It does not lead to a spoiled baby. ⁣ ⁣ 💁🏿‍♀️It may allow your baby to get a good nap. ⁣ ⁣ 🙅🏼‍♀️It is not your baby manipulating you. ⁣ ⁣ 💁🏾‍♀️It might be comforting for your baby. They are able to hear the familiar sound of your heartbeat. ⁣ ⁣ 🙅🏽‍♀️Is not safe if you are napping too. You need to monitor them. Set yourself up with a television show or a good book that you’ve been wanting to read. ⁣ ⁣ 💁🏻‍♀️They will be outgrown. Many babies outgrow contact naps between 4 & 8 months of age. Though older babies & toddlers usually will find your chest quite comforting if they don’t feel well. ⁣ ⁣ 💤If your baby wants to always nap on you and you prefer that they don’t, you can get them to nap in a crib with patience and consistency. ⁣ ⁣ 👇🏼 Comment below if your baby naps on you?⁣⁣⁣ ⁣ Disclaimer: The American Academy of Pediatrics says that the safest place for your baby to sleep is on their back on a firm mattress, without any pillows or blankets, and in close proximity to you. ⁣ ⁣ 🥰Did you find this helpful?

  2. “The real danger is not that computers will begin to think like humans, but that humans will begin to think like computers.” Sydney Harris I don’t find as much value in social media as I used to these days, mostly because it has become severely perverted by AI which has majorly taken out much of the authenticity and creativity. Don’t get me wrong, there are some things that I do still find helpful, and there are some genuine humans and creators out there that are still sharing wonderful wisdom and beautiful artwork and creativity, but more and more, a lot of the content is becoming like an overwhelming digital slop or “junk food”. Not to mention the amount of harm that it’s doing to our kids and parents just keep handing over these devices, with an illusion of “parental controls” not understanding that really doesn’t make much of a difference in terms of what it’s doing to your child’s brain and the risks that exist either way with putting the weight of these devices onto their shoulders. You won’t find me spending as much time on here, or posting nearly as much at all as I used to, as I’m pouring more of my time and energy into my family and my community, where I just think it matters more. This post, though, this felt relevant enough for me to take a few minutes to put together for anyone else who may be feeling similar. ❤️ “I FEAR THE DAY THAT TECHNOLIGY WILL SURPASS OUR HUMAN INTERACTION. THE WORLD WILL HAVE A GENERATION OF IDIOTS.” ALBERT EINSTEIN

  2. If there’s anything I’ve learned in the last 16 years of parenting, it’s that kids don’t feel safe because you shield them from the oppression and injustice of the world.   They feel safe because you stand up against it.  Children are some of the most marginalized people in our society; they are inherently drawn to justice. Raising your baby in an environment of liberation is good for your baby! And while linking liberation struggles to sleep is in some ways it tongue in cheek, in other ways it’s not. Most Western narratives around #infantsleep reflect the demands of colonial capital more than they reflect the needs of infants (or their parents). It’s no coincidence that the field of developmental psychology and “parenting experts” (most of whom were yt men who had no direct experience parenting) flourished contemporaneously with industrial capitalism. Most of the “sleep training” theories that still haunt us today ultimately serve colonial capitalist demands for worker productivity more than anything else, and rely on us internalizing the message, from our earliest moments, that biologically and developmentally appropriate needs for connection don’t matter or must be “trained” out of us. Colonial / industrial capitalism has spent a lot of effort fracturing kin networks into individual consumers, leaving new parents alienated from tradition and support and vulnerable to myths that further its agenda: that we cannot trust our instincts, that we are ultimately alone and only responsible to ourselves, that the solution for most things is consumption. It’s continuing to rely on these message to currently manufacture consent for g3noc*de. Disrupt it. Your baby will thank you. Love, Your Midwife Robina In this time of 🤐s h @ d o w b a n s🤐and 😶c 3 n s o r s h ! p😶 it’s so important that you like, comment, save, and share.

  3. If you’re looking for a deep dive into this topic, with concrete examples from my own parenting community, you can find it in my newest Substack piece — the link in bio takes you there! As someone who’s done a lot of organizing with children, I get asked “how do you do it?” a lot. At root these questions are testament to the way in which caregiving creates in us a drive to build a world that gives more care. But long work hours, limited childcare, and household responsibilities make finding time for organizing meetings, or even finding the right organizing meetings to go to, let alone participating in direct action that might get you arrested, feel virtually impossible for the average parent. This is where I think it’s important to challenge us to get back to basics about how we are in community in the first place. Learning how to radically be in community is a potent political act in an industrialized, capitalist culture that has eroded collectivism and connection in favor of individualism and isolation, that has siloed us into “nuclear” families who are responsible only to ourselves. It is the kind of work that will get us ready for the world to come, the world we or our children or our children’s children will have to build on the remains of the unsustainable empires that now teeter on the verge of collapse, because in the end it is the only world that can be. You know the phrase, “we keep us safe?” This is the work that allows that to be more than a slogan. Because all the organizing in the world is for naught if at the end of the day we don’t actually know how to care for each other. As kids get older, the possibilities for more “traditional” political mobilization become more accessible. But it’s always easier if you already are rooted in a community who can support you in it. In that way, radically committing yourself to the work of community building comes full circle. Head to the substack to keep reading.

  1. One of the greatest gifts we can give our children is the solid ability to analyze, weight facts, and draw rational conclusions. In a post truth, post facts, post all sorts of things culture, the arts of logic and rational thought are becoming exceedingly rare...and necessary. We live in a culture that constantly bombards us with messages about what we should think. Our children especially are exposed to everything and its opposite regarding what they should think and believe about themselves, others, in the world. It is far more important to teach our children how to think than teaching them what to think. If our children are equipped with the skills needed to think through facts, social messages, and all of the information that flows past them, the “what” will take care of itself. We can show our kids what it looks like to form opinions and positions based on facts rather than assumptions. We can show them how to relate to others based on factual observation and patterns rather than stereotypes, beliefs, and assumptions. We can teach our kids what it means to ask great questions and dissect things through the Socratic method. We can teach our children logic and rational progression through ideas. We can teach our children to distinguish between facts and stories. We can teach our children how to effectively engage the world and draw their own solid, rational conclusions. . . #raisingboys #raisingdaughters #raisingreaders #margaretmead #raisingstronggirls #raisingsons #dadlife #dadlifeisthebestlife #singledad #singledadlife #yogafamily #christianfamily #familyvalues #valuesmatter #homeschoollife #fatherandson #fatherhood #parentingtips #parentingadvice #divorceddad #bonusdad

  2. Last week, Grace saw the neurologist who told us she was a *textbook case* of a puppy who indeed had distemper. I know we told you we got multiple negative distemper tests, and it’s true- we did. But as it turns out, she was likely done actively shedding the virus by the time she came into the care of our rescue on 6/3, therefore providing a negative result. It definitely makes sense with all the symptoms she had, some of which will be with her lifelong now (her little head bob and body tics, for example) The neurologist doesn’t anticipate those things worsening over time, which is really great news. Currently, all her puppy teeth are all falling out like CRAAAAZY and a bunch of weird-looking distemper teeth are coming in their place. Just another strange side effect of this disease for pups who get it as their adult teeth are developing. We also just sent in another stool sample today, because she’s still not over that fun (🫠) symptom. We’ll get there, though! Despite these things—right now— ✨our girl is thriving✨ She is up well over 3lbs now, she’s growing like a weed, she’s eating, has energy, loves to play, and loves to roll over for belly rubs and yell at us if we dare lock her cute self in a pen. All I know is that the puppy I met 4 weeks ago who I thought was dying in my arms? I don’t know her. Gracie is a fighter, now going by the title: *Survivor* (cue destiny’s child🎶) In honor of Grace’s littermates who weren’t as fortunate as her…can we commit to educating ourselves, our friends, our social reach about the risks/dangers and perpetuation of harm when supporting a breeder like the one Grace came from? (More on that soon, I hope.) Thanks for all the support for this golden girl. I think she feels it 🫶 #survivor #puppytransformation #dogtransformation #sickgoldenpuppy #backyardbreeding #rescuepuppy #goldenretrieverpuppy #supportyourlocalrescue #distempersurvivor #theanimalpad #california #scambreeder

  2. Let's talk boundaries. Setting limits/boundaries/rules does not mean you need to be mean or punishing. Remember, YOU are the one creating the rule so you can do what you want with it. THERE ARE NO RULES ABOUT MAKING RULES 😜EXCEPT THAT THEY MUST BE CLEAR AND HAVE FOLLOW THROUGH. Always, make sure that your child understand what's expected of them and what happens if the rule is broken before implementing it into your routine. A clear rule outlines natural consequences. For example, "we go outside in regular clothes. If we are wearing a costume, we can't go out until we change." when the child repeats back "but I want too.." I'll say something like "I know, I wish I could let you but that's the Rule." I allow the rule to become almost an imaginary person in our household. Now, the follow through must happen. There is no need to fight or yell. Just stick to the limit in a neutral, calm manner and if that means that we stay inside for the first day while he tests the limits for costume wearing out of the house, that's OK. Setting boundaries is difficult in the beginning and takes time to finesse. But just as in drawing, the more you practice, the better you get at it. #behaviorboost #aba #bcba #appliedbehavioranalysis #abamemes #abahumor #behaviormanagement #behavioranalysis #abatherapy #abatherapist #bcbalife #behavioraltherapy #behavioraltherapist #behaviorintervention #socialskillstraining #behavioralscience #communicationskills #communicationtraining #boardcertifiedbehavioranalyst#bcaba #settinglimits #hackingbehavior #boundaries #parentinghacks #classroomrules #behaviortraining

  2. For complete transparency know that all of the curriculum, supplies and books you see here were all purchased by me with a monthly budget because everything adds up if I don’t take advantage of sales through out the year 😬 I am a regular homeschooling mama that works part time to cover some of the costs of homeschooling. I am blessed to have a job that I can work from home because my boss is super lenient and forgiving (it’s my husband, he’s my boss 🤭). But he likes to remind me I’m actually HIS boss sooo a win is a win 🏆 Anyways, here are some REALISTIC and PRACTICAL tips that have worked for me in providing the best and well rounded education to my kiddos without breaking the bank: ✨ take advantage of sales. Avoid paying whole price if you can. ✨ if you have multiple kids and planning on reusing materials, don’t write directly on consumables. If you have to, see if you can purchase a digital version so you can print for future kiddos. ✨ if you have an ink efficient printer, invest in digital copies. Usually it’s cheaper and you can save a lot of money by printing and prepping on your own. ✨ shop local thrift stores for books. I have found so many good ones by doing this. 80% of my books in my home library consist of books I’ve thrifted over the years. ✨ thrift books, abe books and eBay are all great sources to buy used books. eBay is my favorite place because they usually have buy 3 get 1 free and each book is usually priced at $3 ✨ check out marketplace on FB for gently used curriculum or books. Some mamas are very generous as to how they price their items as long as you assume the shipping costs. Mamas, did I miss anything? If I did, share how you budget your homeschool 👇👇 . . #homeschool #homeschoollife #wildandfreechildhood #thecmec #charlottemasoneducation #charlottemason #charlottemasonhomeschool #homeschoolcommunity #homeschooling #homeschoolingmom #homeschoolroom #natureschool #natureschooling #homeschoolroom #homeschoolroomtour #homeschoolcurriculum #homeschoolcurriculumplanning
