MomCozy Bottle Washer?
I'm expecting my second baby in November and washing pump parts and bottles is possibly my least favorite part of motherhood. Anyone use the MomCozy bottle washer or a similar one? Is it worth the price tag? How long does it take to wash/dry? We used our Baby Brezza sterilizer/dryer on the dryer setting religiously with Feb baby.

Should I get a bottle washer or sterilizer or neither?
5 month old baby, pump when at work and she gets bottles. We have a dishwasher, but nothing ever dries and I hate washing/drying and having all the pieces out to air dry all the time. Would it be worth it to get a bottle washer or sterilizer (to dry) at this point? I nursed first baby to 18 months and hoping to similar with this one submitted by /u/AccountNervous6273 to r/ExclusivelyPumping [link] [comments]

Bottle washer sterilizer vs just sterilizer
Update: Thank you all so much for your feedback. You’ve convinced me to get the all-in-one! Makes sense to just spend a little extra up front rather than have to manually wash all that stuff or risk food contamination in the dishwasher. Thank you again!!! Trying to figure out if getting a Momcozy or Baby Brezza all in one sterilizer is worth it, or if I should just get a sterilizer/dryer like Dr. Browns. I like that the sterilizer is smaller. However, my husband works overnights so I will have baby almost 24/7 which gives me a little less time to do small every day chores. Anyone that has the all in one, any feedback? Any regrets? And people who wash by hand or with the dishwasher and sterilize after, I’d also like to know your opinion and if you wish you’d gotten the all in one. My situation: Ideally, I will be primarily breastfeeding and pumping when necessary. I will be a SAHM for a while. I have the counter space, but I hate clutter. I run the dishwasher normally every other day. I really hate doing dishes (my husband usually washes them haha). Money is not really an issue, but I do like to save money whenever possible. So I have a pretty balanced amount of pros and cons. I appreciate you all! Thank you! submitted by /u/night-ly-owl to r/NewParents [link] [comments]

baby had gastroenteritis, because the bottles weren’t cleaned properly by my mom😢
a few days ago, my daughter kept spitting up and had persistent diarrhea, so we took her to the hospital. the doctor diagnosed acute gastroenteritis, caused by a viral infection. after asking about my daughter’s feeding routine and daily habits, the doc said that the issue was baby bottles cleaned not enough. because too many busy work, we always rely on my mom to help take care of the baby. but I never expected something like this to happen. mom clean the bottles with boiled water after each feeding, just a quick shake, she thinks it is ok. I regret not realizing this earlier. now we’ve bought several bottles, every day after work, I take the time to fully disassemble each one, clean all the parts thoroughly with a brush, let them dry, and then sterilize them in a sterilizer. hope our baby will grow up healthy...😔 submitted by /u/NoseIll7230 to r/newborns [link] [comments]

Found Serratia marcescens on my baby bottle brush
I am so upset and kind of need a little reassurance. I was washing my baby’s food tray with a bottle brush as I normally do, but when I pulled the brush out of its holder today, I noticed it was dripping wet. When I looked inside the holder, I saw there was pink film in it. The kind of pink film you typically find in your bathroom, in a shower, etc. I don’t know how long it’s been there, but I was so upset because I didn’t notice it before. I immediately got a new brush, but I only use that brush for her food tray and that never gets sterilized. I googled what could happen if ingested and while most issues could be mild, I’m just so upset I didn’t see it before and don’t know how long it’s been like this. I’m not the only one who washes her tray, but I’m the only one who uses the brush. This was the first time the brush was dripping wet when I brought it out so I can only assume that maybe it just occurred. Tell me it’ll be alright 😭😭😭 submitted by /u/No-University8570 to r/beyondthebump [link] [comments]

My husband (32M) is insisting that "we" impregnate his friend after finding I (32F) am unable to conceive
I am not The OOP, OOP is u/doctormcpuffy My husband (32M) is insisting that "we" impregnate his friend after finding I (32F) am unable to conceive TRIGGER WARNING: Stillbirth, infertility shaming, emotional infidelity Original Post Nov 23, 2015 I am honestly in a bit of shock after everything that has transpired in the past 24 hours and need some unbiased opinions to get me through. A little background, my SO and I have been married for four years and together for seven. He is a civil engineer who is more so ambivalent to his career, his real passion lies in his hobbies, our relationship, and his friends. I am an emergency medicine doctor and this is my passion. I love my husband, my friends, and I have hobbies but my work is my absolute passion. Becoming a doctor was my dream since I was 12 and I have made it a reality. Now my issue, about 14 months ago my husband was pushing me to get pregnant, he wanted a baby. I honestly did not, I was finally hitting my stride at work, we just bought our first condo together, and weren't living a really friendly kid life. I did not tell him this, mostly because I was a coward and we had never really disagreed before, so I kept my mouth shut and decided it wouldn't be a huge sacrifice to have a baby. I could make it work. We got pregnant. I was miserable, pregnancy did not suit me and I wanted it to be over. I felt disconnected from everything, especially my pregnancy, and sought out therapy. My therapist told me that I was holding resentment against this baby as I was in a great spot in my career and was more worried about that then my unborn child. She was right. I worked on this and towards month six I was really excited to have this baby. My husband and I were in a better place (my resentment and attitude really hurt our relationship during this time). Everything was going well, until it wasn't. Around seven months in our baby was born as a stillbirth and I had some horrible complications which have caused my chances at ever getting pregnant at an incredibly low percent. I know that I am never getting pregnant. After the initial shock, recovering from the physical trauma and the emotional trauma, I won't lie but I felt relieved. Massive relief. I didn't want to be a mother then, and I will down the road but I am a firm believer that this was just not meant to be. My husband took this harder, but with some therapy on both our ends. We seemed to be in a good spot...until last night. Last night my husband approached me, he said that he really wants us to have a kid and "forgives" me for losing our son. He knows that I cannot conceive, but reminded me that he is more than capable. I had to remind him that we have no options, if we want a baby then we need to look into adoption or getting donated eggs and going the surrogacy route, and right now we aren't in a financial position for either. Then he asked what if there was another way? Naturally I asked, what? He told me that there was a woman at work that he has known for several years, apparently she knows about ALL of our marital problems and knows ALL about my health issues over the past year. He said that they recently went to drinks together (I was on an overnight shift) and after a few drinks she offered to not only donate eggs, but to be our surrogate. This seems too good to be true right? Yep. She will ONLY do this if my husband impregnates her the natural way. Having sex with her during her ovulation period until she gets pregnant. I was baffled by this. First, he was considering it and seemed genuinely excited for this. Second, that this woman would offer such a thing without ever having met me. And finally, that he had shared such intimate details with her. He said that he then followed up with her when they were both sober via text and she responded "Oh, I would love to have your baby!" This seems odd to me and I question the mental stability of this woman. But then my husbands entire demeanor shocks me. I told him I wasn't sure about this, if we go the surrogate route I would prefer it be all anonymous and our surrogate be a stranger. I don't want this getting messy or having to worry about running into the egg donor. Instead of seeing the validity of my opinions he told me that having a baby with him was non-negotiable. That this "friend" wants to help us, he wouldn't mind doing it her way, and it would be the most cost efficient since we just discussed how cannot afford it at this time. He told me that if I love him and want a baby, then I will do this for him. I tried to explain to him that I am not sure if I am ready for this, and that I don't know if I am comfortable with all of this. Especially with him sleeping with someone else. He brushed that off, telling me that it is "no big deal" if he were to sleep with her and that I am overreacting. That he has stood by while I got my dream and he was left alone/ignored (I never knew he felt this way) and that I owed it to him to let him do this. Today I looked up this woman on Facebook, and she is VERY attractive. I would say that my husband and I are both average looking but she is definitely striking, which makes my anxiety go even higher. Why do this for us? I don't get what she gets out of this. Am I overreacting? This seems completely bizarre for me and I am questioning everything in our relationship, what should I do? tl;dr: Lost our baby last year, husband wants to knock up some work friend since I can no longer conceive, making me feel guilty because I think it is weird. RELEVANT COMMENTS When asked if the friend isn't already pregnant I don't think she is. He told me that they mapped out her cycles (and insinuated that I could help figure out when is best for her) and that we could aim for a January insemination date so that we could have a fall baby. There is no way that if she is already pregnant (assuming 6+ weeks) that they could fool me with a fall baby. Update Nov 29, 2015 (6 days later) Thank you to everyone who commented on my last post and to those who PM’d me. This is long. I spoke with my husband on Tuesday after he got home from work and before I had to leave for work. I explained to him that even though I do want kids down the road, I would not be comfortable with his friend being our surrogate and that this would not change for me, ever. All of it made me uncomfortable and honestly made me question his fidelity. He was shocked by this. His exact words were “Are you saying that I cheated on you?” I laid it out for him, pointing out a lot of things that were pointed out to me from my OP and stated that even if he hadn’t yet physically cheated that he emotionally cheated. He said that he did have an emotional connection with her, but beyond that nothing else. I asked him if they had sex, kissing, anything sexual at all? He was baffled that I would even think this and adamant he did not have any sexual contact with her. He reiterated that he loves me and I am the only one he wants. The whole idea of this was because he wanted to give us a family and help “repair” the loss, this was just a way to do that and he never saw it as cheating because it would be something we would both agree to. I told him that isn't true because he emotionally manipulated me, or tried to, into going along with it. I told him I needed to know what their relationship was like. He admitted that over the past year, even while I was pregnant, he confided in her about my obvious lack of interest in the pregnancy, my disdain towards motherhood, his fear of me hating our baby, and the issues that persisted in our relationship. Apparently she was shocked that I would feel this way towards a baby, she told him that she has only ever wanted to be a mother. Since then they have only gotten closer, but he denies it has ever gotten physical or that he felt any romantic inclinations towards her. He said that the surrogacy was completely her idea and she has been hinting at it for weeks. Telling him how she would carry our baby for us, how he deserves to be a dad, but he informed her that we did not have any frozen eggs so our options were egg donation or adoption, which we couldn’t afford. No problem, she suggested to use her eggs. Which is how the plan took shape. He said that they could do artificial insemination but she said she didn’t want medical records of this, and natural insemination would keep costs down. I asked him what the fuck was he thinking talking to her about stuff like this and thinking that this was okay?! He looked like a deer caught in the headlights. I asked him how he would feel if I did this? If he was the infertile one and I had an attractive doctor friend knock me up with no strings attached at HIS suggestion, how would he feel? He had nothing to say to this. I told him that I felt absolutely betrayed by all of this. Clearly she has some sort of mental health problems and an unhealthy attachment to my husband but beyond that his relationship with her is inappropriate. He said “obviously I shared too much.” No shit. I told him that I am upset that he “forgave” me for the loss of our baby which I had no control over and that he used that to emotionally manipulate me. He apologized for that, he never meant it to come out like that and in no way blames me. After that everything calmed down but I told him I needed some space from him for a bit. He asked if our marriage was over? I told him I didn’t think so, but this has been a really emotionally turbulent few days and I need to process it. He told me that he does not want our marriage to be over if this was something I was considering, he loves me more than anything and cannot bear to lose me over this. That losing our baby was devastating and has made him depressed, confused, and angry but he does not want to lose me at all. I told him he should have thought about that before planning to stick his dick in crazy (not my finest moment). I told him that if he wants to keep open communication, he needs to cut ties with her, obviously he works with her but nothing beyond whatever work contact they have to have, he needs to go to individual counseling and come to at least one counseling session with me per week. Before he left he changed his phone number, blocked her on Facebook and deactivated it. Told me that he would give me access to whatever I wanted to see that the “relationship” is severed and that it was nothing more than what he has told me. His parting words were "I just wanted to build a family with you" which absolutely gutted me. Wednesday afternoon I checked his email, there wasnothing. Nothing in the deleted bin or recover deleted items bin in Outlook. Facebook was hard to look at, there were a lot of chat messages between the two of them spanning the last eight months when he added her on Facebook. Overall his messages were friendly, a few times he was flirty but never sexual or what I what consider too much for what should be friends, but hers were pretty clear in her meaning. The messages are clear, she's making some kind of play for him. I took screen shots of all the conversations (don't worry I triple checked for any deleted messages, hidden apps, or other messaging services) and re-deactivated his Facebook. I have his iPad so I was able to look at the iMessages on there, they appear to delete every 30 days which left me with that to look at. Overall all the texts and chats line up with his story, but the whole exchange about the logistics make me sick. She talks about making the baby as though it's a date, that she doesn't want it to be sterile or feel like she's being used. Her comments were inappropriate but he never stopped her or corrected her. She even insulted me several times when he expressed concern about how I would feel, saying things like "she's cold hearted" and "maybe you should just do this on your own so you don't have to worry about her rejecting the baby," he didn't really stand up for me but said that he didn't think I would do that. It was all very hard to read but I feel better about my decision overall. We didn’t really speak on Wednesday, he checked in a few times but I let him know that we would talk Thursday. Thursday morning he let me know that he turned in his letter of resignation Wednesday morning. He hasn’t heard from her but doesn’t intend to seek her out to say goodbye either. He apologized, he just thought he was doing the right thing and thought this would make me happy. I still feel extremely betrayed, he is still dealing with the loss and other things. We both agreed that our communication has really deteriorated in the past year and that we need to fix this. So, no lawyer, no gym, just therapy for us. tl;dr: Confronted my husband,got the real story, and now we are going to work on things. FINAL COMMENTS [deleted] Jeeeez. I still don't think he understands exactly how bad he messed up, but hopefully he realizes it in therapy. I read your last post, and I'm really surprised he was willing to do all the "right" things ro fix this. If he really is that committed to working things out, there might be hope, and I'm glad you are giving it a try. Even if he doesn't understand the depth of betrayal against you, hopefully he understands how wrong it was to do everything he did and said. Hopefully you can come to some sort of agreement and peace about your future. Best of luck to both of you. OOP I think he talked about it with his brother who was probably like "bro this is absolutely the worst idea you have ever had and she is probably going to drop some divorce documents on you immediately" because when we did talk he mentioned that he thought about this a lot and realized how awful it all sounded after he left. When we spoke Thursday (and in the days since) he seems more aware of how bad this was on his side. ~ MissTheWire OP, I'm so glad he realized the error of his ways regarding this woman and he's doing very concrete things to make this right, but it feels like the bottom line was that he pushed you into having children before you were ready. Is that from severe baby-fever or self-absorption? I guess I'm wondering if his basically ignoring your career dreams/reproductive timetable, blaming your miscarriage on your attitude and then ignoring this woman's obvious scheming have a common root that he needs to work on in therapy. OOP The first time? I think he had baby fever, his two closest friends just became dads and I theorize that he felt left out. We were a "good" age for having kids, good careers, and working on financial stability. It seemed right to him. I wasn't ready, didn't feel that we were ready financially (just bought a condo, owe $$$ in student loans that I want to pay down as much as possible before kids, want to travel a bit) to take on a baby. But I didn't tell that to him which I think is where a lot of our problems started. He didn't ignore me, I didn't speak up. He has always been super supportive of my career, but I guess feels that a lot I put it in front of him. And he wouldn't be wrong, this is something I need to work on because going to work for two days and questioning if my marriage was going to survive made me realize that work is not above my marriage. We clarified a bit on the attitude. He doesn't really blame me, but it was easy to direct his anger at someone rather than just have it bottle up. We need to work on this. ~ IncredibleBulk2 Consider adoption? OOP In a few years, maybe. Either that or getting an egg donor and doing the surrogate thing. I want kids and it's completely possible for us to have multiple but I'm just not ready.

Should I get a bottle washer or sterilizer or neither?
5 month old baby, pump when at work and she gets bottles. We have a dishwasher, but nothing ever dries and I hate washing/drying and having all the pieces out to air dry all the time. Would it be worth it to get a bottle washer or sterilizer (to dry) at this point?

Bottle washer sterilizer vs just sterilizer
Update: Thank you all so much for your feedback. You’ve convinced me to get the all-in-one! Makes sense to just spend a little extra up front rather than have to manually wash all that stuff or risk food contamination in the dishwasher. Thank you again!!! Trying to figure out if getting a Momcozy or Baby Brezza all in one sterilizer is worth it, or if I should just get a sterilizer/dryer like Dr. Browns. I like that the sterilizer is smaller. However, my husband works overnights so I will have baby almost 24/7 which gives me a little less time to do small every day chores. Anyone that has the all in one, any feedback? Any regrets? And people who wash by hand or with the dishwasher and sterilize after, I’d also like to know your opinion and if you wish you’d gotten the all in one. My situation: Ideally, I will be primarily breastfeeding and pumping when necessary. I will be a SAHM for a while. I have the counter space, but I hate clutter. I run the dishwasher normally every other day. I really hate doing dishes (my husband usually washes them haha). Money is not really an issue, but I do like to save money whenever possible. So I have a pretty balanced amount of pros and cons. I appreciate you all! Thank you! submitted by /u/night-ly-owl to r/NewParents [link] [comments]

baby had gastroenteritis, because the bottles weren’t cleaned properly by my mom😢
a few days ago, my daughter kept spitting up and had persistent diarrhea, so we took her to the hospital. the doctor diagnosed acute gastroenteritis, caused by a viral infection. after asking about my daughter’s feeding routine and daily habits, the doc said that the issue was baby bottles cleaned not enough. because too many busy work, we always rely on my mom to help take care of the baby. but I never expected something like this to happen. mom clean the bottles with boiled water after each feeding, just a quick shake, she thinks it is ok. I regret not realizing this earlier. now we’ve bought several bottles, every day after work, I take the time to fully disassemble each one, clean all the parts thoroughly with a brush, let them dry, and then sterilize them in a sterilizer. hope our baby will grow up healthy...😔 submitted by /u/NoseIll7230 to r/newborns [link] [comments]

Found Serratia marcescens on my baby bottle brush
I am so upset and kind of need a little reassurance. I was washing my baby’s food tray with a bottle brush as I normally do, but when I pulled the brush out of its holder today, I noticed it was dripping wet. When I looked inside the holder, I saw there was pink film in it. The kind of pink film you typically find in your bathroom, in a shower, etc. I don’t know how long it’s been there, but I was so upset because I didn’t notice it before. I immediately got a new brush, but I only use that brush for her food tray and that never gets sterilized. I googled what could happen if ingested and while most issues could be mild, I’m just so upset I didn’t see it before and don’t know how long it’s been like this. I’m not the only one who washes her tray, but I’m the only one who uses the brush. This was the first time the brush was dripping wet when I brought it out so I can only assume that maybe it just occurred. Tell me it’ll be alright 😭😭😭 submitted by /u/No-University8570 to r/beyondthebump [link] [comments]

My husband (32M) is insisting that "we" impregnate his friend after finding I (32F) am unable to conceive
I am not The OOP, OOP is u/doctormcpuffy My husband (32M) is insisting that "we" impregnate his friend after finding I (32F) am unable to conceive TRIGGER WARNING: Stillbirth, infertility shaming, emotional infidelity Original Post Nov 23, 2015 I am honestly in a bit of shock after everything that has transpired in the past 24 hours and need some unbiased opinions to get me through. A little background, my SO and I have been married for four years and together for seven. He is a civil engineer who is more so ambivalent to his career, his real passion lies in his hobbies, our relationship, and his friends. I am an emergency medicine doctor and this is my passion. I love my husband, my friends, and I have hobbies but my work is my absolute passion. Becoming a doctor was my dream since I was 12 and I have made it a reality. Now my issue, about 14 months ago my husband was pushing me to get pregnant, he wanted a baby. I honestly did not, I was finally hitting my stride at work, we just bought our first condo together, and weren't living a really friendly kid life. I did not tell him this, mostly because I was a coward and we had never really disagreed before, so I kept my mouth shut and decided it wouldn't be a huge sacrifice to have a baby. I could make it work. We got pregnant. I was miserable, pregnancy did not suit me and I wanted it to be over. I felt disconnected from everything, especially my pregnancy, and sought out therapy. My therapist told me that I was holding resentment against this baby as I was in a great spot in my career and was more worried about that then my unborn child. She was right. I worked on this and towards month six I was really excited to have this baby. My husband and I were in a better place (my resentment and attitude really hurt our relationship during this time). Everything was going well, until it wasn't. Around seven months in our baby was born as a stillbirth and I had some horrible complications which have caused my chances at ever getting pregnant at an incredibly low percent. I know that I am never getting pregnant. After the initial shock, recovering from the physical trauma and the emotional trauma, I won't lie but I felt relieved. Massive relief. I didn't want to be a mother then, and I will down the road but I am a firm believer that this was just not meant to be. My husband took this harder, but with some therapy on both our ends. We seemed to be in a good spot...until last night. Last night my husband approached me, he said that he really wants us to have a kid and "forgives" me for losing our son. He knows that I cannot conceive, but reminded me that he is more than capable. I had to remind him that we have no options, if we want a baby then we need to look into adoption or getting donated eggs and going the surrogacy route, and right now we aren't in a financial position for either. Then he asked what if there was another way? Naturally I asked, what? He told me that there was a woman at work that he has known for several years, apparently she knows about ALL of our marital problems and knows ALL about my health issues over the past year. He said that they recently went to drinks together (I was on an overnight shift) and after a few drinks she offered to not only donate eggs, but to be our surrogate. This seems too good to be true right? Yep. She will ONLY do this if my husband impregnates her the natural way. Having sex with her during her ovulation period until she gets pregnant. I was baffled by this. First, he was considering it and seemed genuinely excited for this. Second, that this woman would offer such a thing without ever having met me. And finally, that he had shared such intimate details with her. He said that he then followed up with her when they were both sober via text and she responded "Oh, I would love to have your baby!" This seems odd to me and I question the mental stability of this woman. But then my husbands entire demeanor shocks me. I told him I wasn't sure about this, if we go the surrogate route I would prefer it be all anonymous and our surrogate be a stranger. I don't want this getting messy or having to worry about running into the egg donor. Instead of seeing the validity of my opinions he told me that having a baby with him was non-negotiable. That this "friend" wants to help us, he wouldn't mind doing it her way, and it would be the most cost efficient since we just discussed how cannot afford it at this time. He told me that if I love him and want a baby, then I will do this for him. I tried to explain to him that I am not sure if I am ready for this, and that I don't know if I am comfortable with all of this. Especially with him sleeping with someone else. He brushed that off, telling me that it is "no big deal" if he were to sleep with her and that I am overreacting. That he has stood by while I got my dream and he was left alone/ignored (I never knew he felt this way) and that I owed it to him to let him do this. Today I looked up this woman on Facebook, and she is VERY attractive. I would say that my husband and I are both average looking but she is definitely striking, which makes my anxiety go even higher. Why do this for us? I don't get what she gets out of this. Am I overreacting? This seems completely bizarre for me and I am questioning everything in our relationship, what should I do? tl;dr: Lost our baby last year, husband wants to knock up some work friend since I can no longer conceive, making me feel guilty because I think it is weird. RELEVANT COMMENTS When asked if the friend isn't already pregnant I don't think she is. He told me that they mapped out her cycles (and insinuated that I could help figure out when is best for her) and that we could aim for a January insemination date so that we could have a fall baby. There is no way that if she is already pregnant (assuming 6+ weeks) that they could fool me with a fall baby. Update Nov 29, 2015 (6 days later) Thank you to everyone who commented on my last post and to those who PM’d me. This is long. I spoke with my husband on Tuesday after he got home from work and before I had to leave for work. I explained to him that even though I do want kids down the road, I would not be comfortable with his friend being our surrogate and that this would not change for me, ever. All of it made me uncomfortable and honestly made me question his fidelity. He was shocked by this. His exact words were “Are you saying that I cheated on you?” I laid it out for him, pointing out a lot of things that were pointed out to me from my OP and stated that even if he hadn’t yet physically cheated that he emotionally cheated. He said that he did have an emotional connection with her, but beyond that nothing else. I asked him if they had sex, kissing, anything sexual at all? He was baffled that I would even think this and adamant he did not have any sexual contact with her. He reiterated that he loves me and I am the only one he wants. The whole idea of this was because he wanted to give us a family and help “repair” the loss, this was just a way to do that and he never saw it as cheating because it would be something we would both agree to. I told him that isn't true because he emotionally manipulated me, or tried to, into going along with it. I told him I needed to know what their relationship was like. He admitted that over the past year, even while I was pregnant, he confided in her about my obvious lack of interest in the pregnancy, my disdain towards motherhood, his fear of me hating our baby, and the issues that persisted in our relationship. Apparently she was shocked that I would feel this way towards a baby, she told him that she has only ever wanted to be a mother. Since then they have only gotten closer, but he denies it has ever gotten physical or that he felt any romantic inclinations towards her. He said that the surrogacy was completely her idea and she has been hinting at it for weeks. Telling him how she would carry our baby for us, how he deserves to be a dad, but he informed her that we did not have any frozen eggs so our options were egg donation or adoption, which we couldn’t afford. No problem, she suggested to use her eggs. Which is how the plan took shape. He said that they could do artificial insemination but she said she didn’t want medical records of this, and natural insemination would keep costs down. I asked him what the fuck was he thinking talking to her about stuff like this and thinking that this was okay?! He looked like a deer caught in the headlights. I asked him how he would feel if I did this? If he was the infertile one and I had an attractive doctor friend knock me up with no strings attached at HIS suggestion, how would he feel? He had nothing to say to this. I told him that I felt absolutely betrayed by all of this. Clearly she has some sort of mental health problems and an unhealthy attachment to my husband but beyond that his relationship with her is inappropriate. He said “obviously I shared too much.” No shit. I told him that I am upset that he “forgave” me for the loss of our baby which I had no control over and that he used that to emotionally manipulate me. He apologized for that, he never meant it to come out like that and in no way blames me. After that everything calmed down but I told him I needed some space from him for a bit. He asked if our marriage was over? I told him I didn’t think so, but this has been a really emotionally turbulent few days and I need to process it. He told me that he does not want our marriage to be over if this was something I was considering, he loves me more than anything and cannot bear to lose me over this. That losing our baby was devastating and has made him depressed, confused, and angry but he does not want to lose me at all. I told him he should have thought about that before planning to stick his dick in crazy (not my finest moment). I told him that if he wants to keep open communication, he needs to cut ties with her, obviously he works with her but nothing beyond whatever work contact they have to have, he needs to go to individual counseling and come to at least one counseling session with me per week. Before he left he changed his phone number, blocked her on Facebook and deactivated it. Told me that he would give me access to whatever I wanted to see that the “relationship” is severed and that it was nothing more than what he has told me. His parting words were "I just wanted to build a family with you" which absolutely gutted me. Wednesday afternoon I checked his email, there wasnothing. Nothing in the deleted bin or recover deleted items bin in Outlook. Facebook was hard to look at, there were a lot of chat messages between the two of them spanning the last eight months when he added her on Facebook. Overall his messages were friendly, a few times he was flirty but never sexual or what I what consider too much for what should be friends, but hers were pretty clear in her meaning. The messages are clear, she's making some kind of play for him. I took screen shots of all the conversations (don't worry I triple checked for any deleted messages, hidden apps, or other messaging services) and re-deactivated his Facebook. I have his iPad so I was able to look at the iMessages on there, they appear to delete every 30 days which left me with that to look at. Overall all the texts and chats line up with his story, but the whole exchange about the logistics make me sick. She talks about making the baby as though it's a date, that she doesn't want it to be sterile or feel like she's being used. Her comments were inappropriate but he never stopped her or corrected her. She even insulted me several times when he expressed concern about how I would feel, saying things like "she's cold hearted" and "maybe you should just do this on your own so you don't have to worry about her rejecting the baby," he didn't really stand up for me but said that he didn't think I would do that. It was all very hard to read but I feel better about my decision overall. We didn’t really speak on Wednesday, he checked in a few times but I let him know that we would talk Thursday. Thursday morning he let me know that he turned in his letter of resignation Wednesday morning. He hasn’t heard from her but doesn’t intend to seek her out to say goodbye either. He apologized, he just thought he was doing the right thing and thought this would make me happy. I still feel extremely betrayed, he is still dealing with the loss and other things. We both agreed that our communication has really deteriorated in the past year and that we need to fix this. So, no lawyer, no gym, just therapy for us. tl;dr: Confronted my husband,got the real story, and now we are going to work on things. FINAL COMMENTS [deleted] Jeeeez. I still don't think he understands exactly how bad he messed up, but hopefully he realizes it in therapy. I read your last post, and I'm really surprised he was willing to do all the "right" things ro fix this. If he really is that committed to working things out, there might be hope, and I'm glad you are giving it a try. Even if he doesn't understand the depth of betrayal against you, hopefully he understands how wrong it was to do everything he did and said. Hopefully you can come to some sort of agreement and peace about your future. Best of luck to both of you. OOP I think he talked about it with his brother who was probably like "bro this is absolutely the worst idea you have ever had and she is probably going to drop some divorce documents on you immediately" because when we did talk he mentioned that he thought about this a lot and realized how awful it all sounded after he left. When we spoke Thursday (and in the days since) he seems more aware of how bad this was on his side. ~ MissTheWire OP, I'm so glad he realized the error of his ways regarding this woman and he's doing very concrete things to make this right, but it feels like the bottom line was that he pushed you into having children before you were ready. Is that from severe baby-fever or self-absorption? I guess I'm wondering if his basically ignoring your career dreams/reproductive timetable, blaming your miscarriage on your attitude and then ignoring this woman's obvious scheming have a common root that he needs to work on in therapy. OOP The first time? I think he had baby fever, his two closest friends just became dads and I theorize that he felt left out. We were a "good" age for having kids, good careers, and working on financial stability. It seemed right to him. I wasn't ready, didn't feel that we were ready financially (just bought a condo, owe $$$ in student loans that I want to pay down as much as possible before kids, want to travel a bit) to take on a baby. But I didn't tell that to him which I think is where a lot of our problems started. He didn't ignore me, I didn't speak up. He has always been super supportive of my career, but I guess feels that a lot I put it in front of him. And he wouldn't be wrong, this is something I need to work on because going to work for two days and questioning if my marriage was going to survive made me realize that work is not above my marriage. We clarified a bit on the attitude. He doesn't really blame me, but it was easy to direct his anger at someone rather than just have it bottle up. We need to work on this. ~ IncredibleBulk2 Consider adoption? OOP In a few years, maybe. Either that or getting an egg donor and doing the surrogate thing. I want kids and it's completely possible for us to have multiple but I'm just not ready.

Overbearing MIL insists on naming our child
Basically what the title says. My MIL has said to us multiple times now that she has picked out a name for our son. (her first grandchild and due in March) When she first said this to me I told her we have already chosen a name and she responded that “her’s comes first” I just awkwardly laughed because I was so confused and didn’t know what to say. She’s now mentioned multiple more times to her son that she’s picked our child’s name and will be naming him. He very firmly said no every time. She still continues to casually say this and she’s not joking either. I’m not really sure what to do here because she has always been overbearing and controlling with him and it causes a lot of fights/tension. She listens more to me than my partner but I don’t know how to get it across to her that she doesn’t get to decide these type of things. I find the naming to be extremely disrespectful especially because I chose to give our son the same middle name as my grandfather, who I was extremely close to. She hasn’t even bothered to ask what name we picked. She’s also said things about how we don’t know what we’re doing because I put books on the registry and not a bottle sterilizer or diaper cream. I don’t intend on using a sterilizer or even bottles that much at first as I intend on breastfeeding. We’re also very much aware that babies use diaper cream I just didn’t care to add every little thing to the registry. I also just don’t feel the need to explain/justify this to her or anyone else. Any advice on dealing with an overbearing soon-to-be grandparent? ETA: My partner is a lot more strict with her than I am since he’s been dealing with this since, well, forever. We’re fully on the same page about not telling her when I go into labor and things like that. I’ve already gone NC with my own parents over 10 years ago at this point. He’s been mentioning it with his own parents more and more lately and while it makes me sad considering the great relationship I had with my grandfather, I do understand that they aren’t him and it can be unfortunately necessary. Also, I do have bottles on the registry, I just think all the random gadgets like bottle sterilizers or wipe warmers are unnecessary. submitted by /u/Troobaby to r/whatdoIdo [link] [comments]

Best Bottle Sterilizer and Dryer for New Parents?
I’m a new parent and quickly realizing how much time I’m spending washing and drying bottles every single day. Boiling water and waiting for bottles to air-dry isn’t really cutting it anymore, especially during late-night feeds when I just want things ready to go. I’ve been looking into bottle sterilizer and dryer combos and noticed there are so many options (Philips Avent, Baby Brezza, Papablic, etc.), but reviews online seem all over the place. Some people say certain models break down fast, while others swear by them. For anyone who’s actually been using one, what’s the best bottle sterilizer and dryer you’d recommend? Ideally something reliable, easy to clean, and that doesn’t take up too much counter space. Would also love to hear: Which ones dry bottles completely (no musty smell)? Any models that handle pump parts or pacifiers too? Is it even worth buying, or do you find old-school boiling just as good?

Guilty for using plastic baby bottles and frequently heat them for sterilization
When I first buy baby bottles, the majority on the market shelf are plastic. So I just chose a plastic one. Following the instruction saying it is safe for electric sterilizer, I bought one and sterilized baby bottles every day. I once had concern whether it is ok to sterilize plastic bottles using steam, which is 212F, but I finally trust the instructions and thought they must be using safe material designed to be heat resistant. I once ordered a few glass bottles, but they came broken. So my husband decided to we just stay with plastic to avoid getting hurt by broken glass. Now my baby is 9 month. I notice a lawsuit towards the baby bottle I am using for release micro plastic when heat. Also check online to know, even if they claim bpa free, it may contain bpa alternatives such as bps or bpf, which are similar and potentially have similar bad effect. I feel so guilty that I did not use glass bottles. Also, I was just too clean to sterilize bottle every day, which even worsen the issue. I can barely sleep for two nights. But still, it already happened. Seems I can only just pray that my baby to be fine. Update on Mar 5 2025 Thank you so much for the kind replies. I am better in sleeping now but still cannot let the anxiety go. A few summaries I have 1. Heat plastic bottle is a bad practice but that is not end of world 2. We do not know what we do not know until we know, just do correction afterwards. 3. I do have slight PPA for losing sleep over this matter But also a few points on the otherside 1. Although micro plastic is wide spread in daily life, but the amount from heating plastic bottle really can be much more than intake from environment. Also given it is for baby, it is bad they got exposed so early. 2. Although some lawsuit is for payout, I do feel this one has its merit in some sense. They should warn the risk of heating plastic rather than state it is safe for electric and microwave sterilization in its user manual, which is really misleading. submitted by /u/PigAndWhale to r/NewParents [link] [comments]

⚠️Mam baby bottle turning water Blue ⚠️
Hey everyone, I recently bought a MAM baby bottle for my little one, and I’ve noticed something weird—when I fill it with water, the water sometimes turns a blue tint. I’ve followed all the cleaning and sterilizing instructions, so I’m not sure what’s causing this. I’ve also tried rinsing it multiple times and even switched to filtered water, but the issue keeps happening. Has anyone else experienced this with MAM bottles or other brands? Is this something to be concerned about, or is it safe to keep using the bottle? I’m planning to email their customer support, but I figured I’d check here first to see if anyone has any insight.

I had no idea I had to do more than just washing after each use with hot water, clean dish soap (no fragrance or dyes), and a silicone baby bottle brush? And then air dry.

Our volunteer found this baby crying inside a dumpster tied inside a plastic bag left to die 💔 Some people are just monsters 😔💔 How can people be so cruel. Im so happy we were able to save it and give it a chance at life. Our volunteer is bottle feeding every 4-5 hours even during the night
This baby was crying inside a dumpster and our volunteer found it tied inside a plastic bag left to suffocate or get squashed by the garbage track, whatever happened first 💔 it was so heartbreaking, the poor baby was so scared and weak. Im glad our volunteer found this baby in time and now it gets a second chance in life filled with love. Our volunteers is taking care of it at her home now. The baby is about 10 days old so she is bottle feeding it every 4-5 hours. The baby needs special newborn cat milk which we have bought for it. It needs a lot of care but the baby is worth it 🙏🏻 i cant believe people can be so cruel and treat this adorable kitten like garbage😔 Im so glad we saved this baby ❤️ Our policy is to keep kittens until they are 6 months old, sterilize them and give them out for adoption if we can find a family so hopefully this baby will soon find its forever home, and I hope people will stop being this cruel to animals or will get punished for it 😔 If you would like to support our organisation and donate to the care or this baby we have links on our page submitted by /u/stray-cats-cyprus to r/Feral_Cats [link] [comments]

Our volunteer found this baby crying inside a dumpster tied inside a plastic bag left to die 💔 Some people are just monsters 😔💔 How can people be so cruel. Im so happy we were able to save it and give it a chance at life. Our volunteer is bottle feeding every 4-5 hours even during the night
This baby was crying inside a dumpster and our volunteer found it tied inside a plastic bag left to suffocate or get squashed by the garbage track, whatever happened first 💔 it was so heartbreaking, the poor baby was so scared and weak.

When do you stop sterilizing bottles?
Our baby is 4 months old. I boil his bottles every day before using them again. My husband asked when we stop sterilizing them and I didn’t really think about it. A quick google search says the NHS recommends keep going until the baby is 12mo, but the CDC recommends only to 3mo. Curious when y’all stopped/plan to stop. For what it’s worth our son is formula fed. Edit (January 2025 One year later) I’d like to thank everyone who commented and continues to comment even today (I think this thread shows up on Google searches). I did stop sterilizing bottles shortly after I put this up and have had a mostly healthy baby (now 16mo) since (obviously daycare viruses exist) I’m really glad this thread is helping new parents out. submitted by /u/SandalsResort to r/NewParents [link] [comments]
