Well played sir!

What is this? I'll also put it in critter id.

hair worm, probably looking for food. They eat left over stuff. Harmless, amazed the fish haven't made it a snack yet.

Spaghetti/Medusa... Harmless as @Goaway said.

Thanks. He was floating around when I caught him. I'll put him back.

Nap time.

Cute?little worm. I’ve got a bunch in my big tank. And at least one pretty massive bristleworm that I saw a few evenings ago. I think the thing was 9 inches+ . Hard to tell because how it was slinking around while looking for food.

What's that? Exhaustion?

I have no clue what that looks like... I avoid the mirror!

I took care of baby, husband took care of me. But, no one took care of him :*(

When our babies wouldn't go to sleep, she'd come in bawling and hand me the baby. I'd put the baby in the crib and it's all silence and sleeping. My wife was usually asleep before I got back into bed she was so exhausted. Then off to work in the morning.

I understand but mom needs rest too.

I had no issues putting the little one to sleep, thankfully. Husband did try once. Isaac would scream and the dog would go off. Husband never tried again.

This next one... one day at a time. We'll adjust as needed.

My daughter had to be held a very specific way and she was out in a matter of minutes.

Isaac was colicky, for over a year. He had to be held a certain way, or he'd throw up. We learn our babes. But, they learn us quicker.

My second was up every 45 minutes from 4 months to a year. I was a walking zombie.

Thanks. I had to laugh at that picture, cuz Mom had just gone down for a nap too. And he's not yet old enough to do the "dad puts baby in danger" stuff yet.

What's that? Exhaustion?

I think that's just the unkempt hair. I didn't feel too tired at that point.

It's what we do. When we do what we should. I'm still learning that.

I've been calming him for months now. Even in the womb I would put my hand on her tummy and he'd chill out. it really frustrated her cuz she wanted me to feel him move.

Mine sleeps well when he's down. Then he gets a bubble in his tummy and throws an absolute fit. I want to look up some massage stuff to help that.

It's a lot easier once he's older. There are several methods to relieve the toots. You'll find videos of laying baby on back and in slow movement, moving legs toward abdomen helps the gas pass.
