Re: sleep training, they have shown that sleep trained babies, while they cry less at night (i.e the training), they have higher cortisol levels at night. Additionally, recent research has suggested that it may have an effect on attachment.

This is terrific advice.

We experienced many of the same things you mentioned and ended up fully embracing co-sleeping.

When our son was 2 and a bit he was ready to be in a toddler bed beside our bed. This happened more or less naturally with a bit of encouragement. It was around this time that he started “sleeping through the night”.

We recently had another baby and our eldest (almost 3 at the time) decided for himself that he was ready to sleep alone in his own room.

This process took a lot longer than some of the other people I’ve spoken with. However we’re okay with it because we never had to do any sort of sleep training, our son feels secure & has a healthy attachment with us, and in retrospect this whole process was shorter than it really seemed at the time.

So I guess what I’m saying is, try not to compare your situation to others—every child is so different. Do what you have to do to support your child and yourselves. And finally, this will pass more quickly than you think—you may even think fondly of these times later.

Good luck!

@Servais@discuss.tchncs.de, not that I don’t appreciate these posts, mostly just curious, but why do you continue to make regular posts if you do not have children?

For us there was no first word. Chatty babbling just sort of evolved into speaking. It was a spectrum of development with no clear divisions.

Yes, it’s some Stripe thing. Stripe requires you to create a customer to be able to vault payment methods and make charges. However it’s possible that not all users in their product require this functionality.

SourceHut is crap. I’ve found that just because something is open source it doesn’t mean it’s automatically good.

This was very easy to find, I’m sure there’s more.

That’s quite an intentionally misleading headline @hal_5700X@lemmy.world

Being openly gay is not a political statement.

You, in fact, cannot install Windows 10 on a Pentium 4.

I don’t currently use macOS, but macOS support is typically about 7 years, sometimes up to 10. Apple supports the 3 latest versions of its operating system.

Mainstream Windows support seems to be about 1-3 years.

I can’t wait to play this! Quake II and Quake III Arena are my all time favourite games. God they were just so cool when they came out. Quake II especially was light years beyond anything else out at the time. And they were FAST too!

He literally just explained why.
