New blog names. Former Foster daughter's Mom = Kenya

Former Foster daughter's Grandma (who is raising her) = Nene*

*I'm currently working my way through all 15 seasons of Real Housewives of Atlanta. These are characters names.

Last night we heard from Nene that her daughter Paige was in the hospital because she was having seizures. All three kids (6,2, and 1yo) were with the Paternal Grandma of the 6yo. The 2 and 1 year old have a different father. The paternal Grandma said she would call ACS if she didn't come get them.

This morning Kenya called to ask if could take all of the kids until she gets out of the hospital. No timeline for leaving. No answers for why she is having seizures but after two high risk pregnancy she's had a lot of medical issues. She's maybe 28yo. I said no. I found some safe family/safe haven organizations she could call. But no luck with them. Due to all of her recent troubles, before the hospital, I've been expecting this call.

I feel shitty because we could take them for a few days. Or until Sunday as I start my new job on Monday. Adding three kids, even for a few days, would be a lot of work but we could do it. We don't have extra cribs but we could do packnplays. I think if that was all they needed we would have said yes. If she had a job/home to return to we could step in as a support system. The need is clearly much more than that. Due to her current circumstances it feels like she needs an idealized version of foster care. A great family who has space for three kids while the Mom gets her life together. Again, in a ideal world the family would be willing to adopt all three if she does not get her life together. Everybody knows the foster care system is not ideal. There will be overreach. There will be racism. There are certainly plenty of good foster families but I think there are just as many bad ones. Its doubtful anyone will take all three kids. The system is overwhelmed. If you get a strong case worker (=doubtful) you can assume they are super overworked.

Anyway my minds been on the kids all day. We all know many kids live chaotic lives that are not fair to them. Its another thing when you know there are three specific kids that are going through it right now. Paige herself grew up in a chaotic life. It all feels hopeless.

Another One Bites The Dust

Annabelle Lee died 10 hours after receiving the MMR, DTaP, varicella and half of a Flu shot. Her mother took her shopping afterwards and said she was grouchy.When they returned home she laid her down to relax for the night and watch cartoons. Her mother’s words... "She was quiet, she was asleep. No sounds except the low sound of the cartoons. No cries, no whines, no groans, no screams, nothing. " Nothing. It was 11 something, I felt in her packnplay at her diaper, it was wet. I picked her up, she was facedown. It all went so wrong so fast. I screamed for her dad. I don’t recall any color even being gone from her face, she didn’t look dead. I called 911, we gave her cpr. We caused vomit to come up, it was all over us. It was all over me, I still taste it. I will never ever get that taste out of my mouth. I ran outside. Her dad kept giving her cpr. I just laid outside in my driveway and screamed. A cop was trying to get me up, I couldn’t move. I saw her rushed from the house into an ambulance. She was missing a sock. I was missing a sock. I refuse to think that was just coincidence. We both lost our socks in the commotion. I remember asking a cop that was at my door while we were waiting on my inlaws to pick us up to go to the hospital if it was bad. If hed ever seen any baby survive. “It’s bad.” Shuffled us into this room at childrens, I just pushed myself up against a dresser. The nurse that came in was pregnant, and I was furious. It took forever. It might have only been 5 mins but it took forever for some doctor to come in. They tried to start her heart a few times, with adrenaline I think. It didn’t work. She was gone. Their was nothing they could do. The first question I asked. Could shots have killed her? She just got http://shots.It’s not even been 10 hours since she got the shots, did the shots kill her? What happened!? That doctor lied to my face. Any doctor knows that vaccines can kill people. She didn’t know what had happened in her body, she just said no. She reassured me it wasn’t the shots. Again and again. To be honest, she made me feel stupid for even questioning the shots. Just like many doctors do. Thats the right thing to do, vaccines. The greater good, nothing bad happens, the risk is minimal. Lies, it’s all just a lie. I didn’t want to see her, I regret it sometimes, but most of the time I know it was right. She was gone, and I didn’t want to remember her like that. I didn’t let anyone else go see her either, I didn’t want ANYONE to see her like that, to have those images. I told my mom she didn’t want to see what I saw. I’ll never really know if my parents went back to see her, I left before they did. The doctor said her fever was 114 degrees. So within 30 mins she went from normal temperature, alive, to dead with a 114 degree temperature. That’s not Sids. SUDC Sudden Unexplained Death in Childhood is what they call it. SIDS for 12mo +. It’s a crapshoot, it’s a catchall. Truthfully, it’s lazy. That is what the coroner told me it was ruled as of that night. So I asked him. Was it the shots? He said, “It’s very suspicious she got shots and died so soon after, but I will not know anything until lab reports and tox screens come back”. He doesn’t recall saying that, but I recall him saying that, perfectly to me. And she was gone.

How Many Hours Sleep Your Baby Needs?

Newborns do sleep a lot of the time.  But their sleep is in very short segments. 

 As a baby grows, the total amount of sleep slowly decreases.  However, the length of nighttime sleep increases.

Generally, newborns sleep about 8 to 9 hours in the daytime and about 8 hours at night.  But they may not sleep longer than 1 to 2 hours at a time.  

Most babies don't begin sleeping through the night (6 to 8 hours) without waking until they are about 3 weeks old, or until they weigh 12 to 13 lbs.  

About two-thirds of babies have the ability to sleep through the night on a regular basis by age 6 months.

Babies have different sleep cycles than adults.  Infants spend much less time in rapid eye movement (REM) sleep (which is dream time sleeping ).  

What are the signs of infant sleep issues?

Once a baby begins to regularly sleep through the night, parents tend to be unhappy when the baby starts to wake up at night again.  

This often happens at about 6 weeks old.  This is often a normal part of development called separation anxiety.  

This is when a baby doesn't understand that separations are short-term (temporary).  

Babies may also begin to have trouble going to sleep due to separation anxiety.  Or because they're overstimulated or overtired.

Frequent responses of infants having these night awakenings or difficulty going to sleep may include the following:

Waking and crying 

one or more times in the night after sleeping through the night

Crying when you leave the space 

Refusing to go to sleep without a parent nearby

Clinging to the parent at separation

Sleep problems may also occur with illness.  Talk with your baby's healthcare provider if your baby begins having trouble going to sleep or staying asleep, especially if this is a new pattern.

Signs of sleep readiness

You can help your baby sleep by recognizing signs of sleep readiness, teaching him or her to fall asleep on his own, and reassuring him or her with awakenings.  

Rubbing eyes

Yawning

Looking away

Fussing

Helping your infant fall asleep

Babies might not be able to produce their own sleeping and waking patterns.  Surprisingly, not all babies know how to put themselves to sleep.  

And not all babies can go back to sleep if they're awakened in the night.  When it's time for bed, many parents want to soothe or breastfeed a baby to help them fall asleep.  

Developing a bedtime routine is a fantastic idea.  But don't let your baby fall asleep in your arms.   

And your baby may begin to expect to be in your arms in order to fall asleep.  When your baby briefly wakes up during a sleep cycle, they might not be able to go back to sleep on their own.

Infants who feel secure are better able to handle separations, especially at night. 

Cuddling and comforting your baby during the day can help them feel more secure. 

 Allowing time for naps daily as needed for your baby's age.

Not having any stimulation or activity close to bedtime.

Developing a bedtime routine, such as bath, reading books, and rocking.

Playing soft music while your baby is getting tired.

Offering a transitional object that your baby can take to bed.  This might be a small blanket or a soft toy.  

But don't do this until your baby is old enough.  Your baby should be able to roll up and sit.  This will prevent the danger of suffocation.

Tucking your baby into bed if he or she is drowsy, but before going to sleep.

Comforting and reassuring your baby when he or she is afraid.

For nighttime awakenings, comfort and reassure your baby by patting and soothing.  Do not take your baby out of bed.  Repeat as needed.

Being consistent with the routine and your responses.

Reducing the risk for sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) and other sleep-related infant deaths

Here are recommendations from the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) on how to reduce the risk for SIDS and sleep-related deaths from birth to 1 year old: 

An infant who is fully immunized may reduce his or her risk for SIDS.

Breastfeed your baby.  The AAP recommends breastmilk just for at least 6 months. This can reduce the risk for SIDS, breathing in food or a foreign object (aspiration), and choking.  

Never place your baby on their side or stomach for sleep or naps.  If your baby is awake, give your child time on their stomach as long as you're watching.  

This can lessen the chance that your child will develop a set head.

Always talk with your baby's healthcare provider before increasing the head of the crib if your baby has been diagnosed with gastroesophageal reflux. 

If your baby is breastfeeding, don't use a pacifier until breastfeeding has been fully established.

Use a firm mattress that is covered by a tightly fitted sheet.  This can prevent gaps between the mattress and the sides of a crib, a play yard, or a bassinet.  

That can reduce the risk of the baby getting stuck between the mattress and the sides (entrapment).  It can also reduce the risk of suffocation and SIDS.

Share your room rather than your bed with your baby.  Putting your baby in bed with you increases the danger of strangulation, suffocation, entrapment, and SIDS.  

Bed sharing is not recommended for twins or other multiples.   But infants should be in a separate bed or crib appropriate for babies.  

This sleeping arrangement is recommended ideally for the baby's first year.  

However, it should at least be preserved for the first 6 months.

Don't use baby seats, car seats, strollers, baby carriers, and baby swings for routine sleep and daily naps.  

These may lead to blockage of an infant's airway or suffocation.

Don't put babies on a couch or armchair for sleep.  

Sleeping on a couch or armchair puts the infant at a significantly greater risk of death, such as SIDS.

Do not use illegal drugs and alcohol, and don't smoke during pregnancy or after birth.  

Keep your baby away from others who are smoking and regions where others smoke. This will keep them from getting overheated, reducing the risk for SIDS.

Don't use loose bedding or soft objects (bumper pads, pillows, comforters, blankets) in your child's crib or bassinet.  

Do not use home cardiorespiratory monitors and commercial apparatus (wedges, positioners, and special mattresses) to help decrease the risk for SIDS and sleep-related infant deaths.  

These devices have never been shown to decrease the risk of SIDS.  In rare cases, they've caused infant deaths.

Always place cribs, bassinets, and play yards in areas with no dangling cords, wires, or window coverings.  This can reduce the danger of strangulation.

Am I going to hell for overreacting or???

I feel like I’m a bad person for being salty sometimes and regretting providing baby things to my sister. She’s due before me and I wasn’t even trying to get pregnant, but I have almost everything I need for my baby while everything she has for hers I also bought or like I said, I was given so many free baby things today and split it with her. Because I feel like she’s not doing anything to get her baby anything and won’t ask anyone for help. I don’t want my nephew to not have diapers clothes and wipes. And it’s her job to provide, my mom has enough on her plate.

I have no problem buying baby gifts, but I’m not working just like she’s not. I had less support than she has. I was homeless while pregnant with Kai, I have an apartment NOW, and even tried to get her to do an application because it’s low income but really nice to only pay this super low rent and so much room. She didn’t listen and is living on my moms couch. I gave her Kai’s old things I still had and bought new things for my new baby. Then bought her a packnplay brand new and bought a used bassinet for my baby. I don’t regret helping. But I wish I didn’t feel like I had to. I have two kids now and had no help with either. I would’ve been set on newborn and size 1 diapers today if I didn’t split them and give her a whole case plus a few packs while taking 3 small packs for myself, because I already started buying a few cases. I just wanna scream sometimes. Am I going to hell for being mad I found a blessing and basically gave away $60 worth of diapers, $30 of bath stuff, and a $75 rocker to her? Everything we got today was brand new btw, the lady had miscarried and wanted her loss to benefit someone in need, and I just happened to be up early and was the first to respond to her post asking who was pregnant with a girl. I didn’t even think the stuff was free, I was going to buy it off her she had to tell me so many times it was free before I believed her. And my sister is having a boy, so she couldn’t do anything with the clothes or baby tub, so I kept those but now I’m like “wow I really gave this girl over 300 diapers that was meant for me, just because she’s due any day now and hasn’t prepared for shit”

[papi-griffin]

Griffin hated himself for what he said the other night and he wouldn’t be upset if she was mad at him. In fact it was because of this that he hasn’t really said anything to her since. “hey monkey. where’s your mommy?” He asked, picking Legend out of his packnplay.

Why Parents Searching For a Safe Co-Sleeper?

Co-sleeping is one that pits many parents against the medical establishment, a fraught issue. 

Why is the establishment in the United States so adamant about making sure that parents don't sleep with their children, if the hazards of co-sleeping are so low? 

The idea appears to go back to the Roman Empire, so it was, when rocking cradles and bassinets were a indication of status and wealth. 

Then the Catholic Church forbade parents to sleep in the same bed as their children. 

This may have been driven by classism and the belief that the poor parents are worse. 

The rules were designed"to prevent poor girls from intentionally suffocating an infant whom they didn't have resources to care for," writes Doucleff. 

By 1576, the Church went so far as to excommunicate women who slept with their babies.

Since the Belly Belly image went viral, it has been four decades, and parents around the globe are waiting for hospitals to install co-sleepers. We won't have to wait another four years for the AAP to get the message.

Research indicates that physical closeness between parents and children, in addition to direct skin-to-skin contact, has a host of physical and emotional benefits for adolescents.

The truth is that parents in America want to sleep with their children, and many, in reality, already do. 

Between 1993 and 2015, surveys reveal that co-sleeping spiked from 6% to 24%, despite doctors' warnings.  

Additionally, there are many sleeping devices on the market for home use that permit you to attach a bassinet so you can sleep near your child, though the American Academy of Pediatrics declines to comment on their security. 

Which brings us back to the co-sleeper designs in the market. 

Shouldn't hospitals work with designers to make a variant of the co-sleeping beds, and make it regular issue in neonatal wards, given the benefits of skin-to-skin contact the moment the baby is born?

The notion of separating children and parents seems cruel. Anthropologists have identified co-sleeping in 40% of all documented cultures, especially in Asia, Africa, and South America. 

In China and India, parents sleep in the same bed as their kids, often until they were several years old.  

In such countries, co-sleeping is still widely practiced, and there is no evidence that it increases SIDS. 

But the look of the co-sleeping arrangements in these states matter. This might explain why co-sleeping is safer in these countries.

Some doctors are pushing back to the AAP's recommendations. They argue that the dangers of babies dying because of co-sleeping are actually very low. 

Lots of the studies about SIDS were conducted in the early 2000 and discovered that it frequently happens when parents sleeping in the same bed as their children. 

However, when you take a good look at the data, the cases of sleep-related infant deaths mostly fell under a few categories: 

They involve parents who drink or do drugs, they involve premature babies or parents that smoke, and they involve babies sleeping on sofas with their parents and then becoming trapped in the cushions.

According to NPR, which published a comprehensive article about co-sleeping in 2018, physicians and statisticians have recently reanalyzed the data to assess what the risk would be without any of these factors; two studies revealed that the risk of a child dying from sleeping is very low. 

According to a pediatricians, parent who does not drink, do drugs, or smoke and has a healthy baby is only going to increase the possibility of sleep-related death by 0.004 percentage points by co-sleeping with his or her child.

On co-sleeping, their stance has loosened in New Zealand and the United Kingdom. There, doctors personalize co-sleeping's risk based on the parents' characteristics and the health of the child. 

In cases where physicians feel it would be too risky the danger is articulated by them clearly, which could assist those parents avoid SIDS.

The American Academy of Pediatrics' formally recommends that infants sleep on a separate surface from their parents, such as a crib or a bassinet, to"decrease the possibility of sleep-related deaths"  

According to the AAP, physicians worry that parents will crush or suffocate the babies by accidentally placing their hands on their tiny faces.
