I’m currently attempting to wean my 2.5 yr old cold turkey who is only nursing to sleep/throughout the night for comfort. I weaned my eldest the same way who also only nursed at night at 2 yrs and some change and it was difficult the first few nights but she adjusted well within a week or 2. My youngest is farrrr more strong willed and unyielding lol…. Right now I’m just snuggling her and comforting her while she screams and thrashes around (worked w my first) hoping she will eventually tire out. The problem is that time doesn’t seem to come. It has been so hard and I’ll admit I have given in many times. Especially so when she’s waking during the night screaming endlessly…. Did I mention my eldest (4 yo) is also in the bed with us, having another child in the bed is something I didn’t have to deal with weaning my first and makes the middle of the night screaming sessions feel more frantic as I’m worrying about my eldest’s sleep quality while weaning. She just screams and screams for hours with no end in sight. I feel like I’ve failed her making her so reliant on nursing to sleep. Should I be more concerned with getting my eldest in her own bed first? I’m not bothered by the cosleeping and don’t want to move her out of the bed, but maybe weaning is hopeless until I tackle that first. I’m struggling w nursing through the night so much, as well as the guilt that comes with weaning and possibly moving my eldest into her own room. Feeling all around awful about the whole situation!! :( please give me any tips or advice you have!!

Just watched last night and was like ??? When the neighbor had taken photos of an obviously bumpless Taylor who was supposedly full term or nearly there AND Wade in their front yard I was like there’s no way he couldn’t have known she was fully lying! He’s living with this woman who seemingly isn’t trying that hard to upkeep the image of a pregnant woman in their home as far as a baby bump goes. He has to see there is an undeniable difference in her belly between her maternity shoot/social media posts and the way she looks in real life? I just find it inconceivable that he would even doubt she was lying about being pregnant given not only all the evidence presented to him by outsiders, but what was in front of his own eyes in his own home!! There were many other things like the 10 months overdue pregnant and supposed to be driving 4 hours away to help him deliver pigs like when would that ever even be an option for a woman in that situation to go that far out of town? I feel like he was not as oblivious as he makes it seem. Obviously I don’t think he knew what she would do but how could he just even loosely play along w this for that long…. And the friends/family just dropping the issue too when they were the ones who had suspicions and found the evidence proving her lies like HOW did it get that far! The only people who even tried to do anything were bound by HIPPA and even then they did the most they could! Not blaming anyone but Taylor but omg

I’ve been practicing yoga since December and more seriously since just this March, so obviously still very new. At home I can throw a handstand up and hold it for a million yrs, hold crow for a good min, ya know among a few other misc. inversions and arm balances. In class I cannot even get into tripod or any arm balances idk why! I don’t feel like I’m focused on the envr and there being people around but I guess I am idk. I feel really confident in the skills I’m attempting in class but they just don’t hold. Maybe just something that comes w more comfort and time? Not like it matters I guess bc I know I CAN do and DO do it but I just wonder what the diff is between my personal practice and being in a class. Prob focusing a lot more on outside things than I’m realizing. Talking (typing) myself through it lol sorry if this post is dumb, like I said rn I’m very much a hobbyist. I don’t have any people in my life who practice or care about yoga and haven’t really immersed myself in yoga culture like that yet sooo throwing this into the void
