I'm at peace with it. Other than that I've pretty much stuck to my guns. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-i-have-kids-ill-never-or-will#post-576608 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 15:42:24 +0000 autumnlove 576608@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No pacifier...that didn't last long! We bought some on the way home from the hospital! :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-i-have-kids-ill-never-or-will#post-576599 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 15:39:26 +0000 lovehoneybee 576599@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsmenow: "I'm going to wear my baby everywhere" (reality: he hated the Moby, K'tan and slings, he only likes the Infantino and he's heavy enough that it hurts my shoulders fast). I ordered an Ergo, I'm hoping we'll both like it and I can wear him more on walks and such. </p> <p>@hilsy85: Haha I was only willing to give him a pacifier on the car ride home from the hospital. A few days later we were desperate for some sleep and tried to give one to him--and he refused! Would not take it for MONTHS (not until about 2 weeks ago, actually--and it's more of something to chew on than a soother). </p> <p>@TurtleDoves: We held out for the 6 months as well even though we got the go-ahead for rice cereal at 4 months.</p> <p>@crash806: Still hoping to do this...so far so good, but it's only been a week or two so we'll see. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-i-have-kids-ill-never-or-will#post-576325 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 14:45:28 +0000 lavender 576325@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was going to make all of LO's food--that lasted a month. Oh well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-i-have-kids-ill-never-or-will#post-576280 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 14:36:52 +0000 runsyellowlites 576280@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ummmm I didn't want to use the paci but ended up really needing to. She weaned herself from it already though so no biggie. Otherwise I've pretty much stuck to my nevers &amp; wills. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-i-have-kids-ill-never-or-will#post-576275 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 14:36:06 +0000 keiki_mama 576275@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't want to expose him to TV much but we pretty much have the TV on all weekend. His first word might be Chumlee! We are big Pawn Stars fans. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-i-have-kids-ill-never-or-will#post-576256 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 14:33:34 +0000 mrsmenow 576256@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TurtleDoves: I hope his first word is Obamacare, lol! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-i-have-kids-ill-never-or-will#post-576239 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 14:31:08 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 576239@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hilsy85: hahaha...nope, I like to expose my infant son to killings around the world and the fiscal cliff! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-i-have-kids-ill-never-or-will#post-576223 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 14:28:05 +0000 hilsy85 576223@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TurtleDoves: ha better CNN than what I usually have on (real housewives, hgtv...) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-i-have-kids-ill-never-or-will#post-576214 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 14:26:38 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 576214@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hilsy85: pacifier! damn pacifiers. How did they suck us in?</p> <p>Basically nothing else. I said no co-sleeping and we haven't. I said no solids until 6m and we haven't , although ped said go ahead. I never said no TV hehe. I don't put shows on for him but I will also turn the TV on in the house just to not feel so alone and LO were turn his head while in the swing and watch it haha...even if it's CNN:) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-i-have-kids-ill-never-or-will#post-576192 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 14:23:47 +0000 hilsy85 576192@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I thought I would never use a pacifier. Now we use one every time we put LO to bed/down for a nap! I also thought I would have DH take over at least one night feeding/feeding during the day. But I hardly ever have anyone else feed LO--first, i hate pumping, and 2nd I love the time I spend nursing him so I get a bit possessive of that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-i-have-kids-ill-never-or-will#post-576173 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 14:22:10 +0000 mrsmenow 576173@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With my first two I rolled my eyes at baby wearers- it was never going to be me I LOVED my huge stroller- now with number three she is in the sling almost every day. I even wore it to the mall this weekend and skipped the stroller all together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-i-have-kids-ill-never-or-will#post-576151 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 14:19:44 +0000 Bao 576151@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Rock my LO to sleep, which I don't always do but sometimes I like to cuddle. Baby wear, I thought it was silly but although I don't do it much I have and occasionally do. Feed LO solids before 6 months, I started at 5 months. Be so picky about LO being around sick people. I never understood the big concern, now I do. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-i-have-kids-ill-never-or-will#post-576134 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 14:17:01 +0000 lovehoneybee 576134@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Co-bed was our big one! But it was the only way we both got any sleep! And television...I swore no TV at all for the first 2 years, but I put on shows for him sometimes so I can do the dishes/cook dinner/have a break. Plus I like the noise, makes me feel less alone. Usually it's TMBG Here Comes Science music DVD but occasionally Yo Gabba Gabba or Pingu. </p> <p>What have you done that you swore you'd never do before you had a baby? </p>
