I wonder if the Saudi government would be interested? The Saudi's own major soccer teams in Europe, WWE in the future, LIV golf, etc. They would sure as hell spend to win.
Do you really think the MLB would allow that?

We use the Nanit camera which has been great, really never had a problem with it and the app works really well.
We also use a Hatch sound machine, which both helps her sleep and also keeps out other household noises.
We have the hatch, not sure which camera my wife decided on but she typical doesn't hold back when it comes to the baby's safety.

Unless something has changed in recent years SIDS is a very young baby thing primarily. I want to say by six months the odds have dropped off a ton.
I need to look into this, we sent our pediatrician a list of questions so we can prepare accordingly.

Gotcha. We had a few rough nights with the transition to the crib but basically took the cry it out approach and she seemed to adjust pretty quick. But obviously if there is something wrong, or they are coughing, or really working themsevles up we go in. How long has he been in the crib now? I remember watching ours on the monitor during that phase and just having to go in and flip them over when she would roll, which sucks, but it doesn't last very long.
Yeah we just bought a new web cam type monitor so we can see what's going. We are essentially letting him cry it out if he wakes up in the middle of the night, but we want to monitor to make sure he's not in a compromised position.

Do you use a sleep sack?
Yeah and we allow his arms to be free.

So we had easy mode for the first six months since we had a SNOO bassinet. We had to return it since he just turned six months. He is rolling like crazy these days. We transitioned to a crib and he obviously isn't sleeping as long. He will wake up fussing on his stomach and he's also getting his limbs stuck in the crib bars. I wanted to put on some mesh linings so he can't stick his appendages through the bars but I was told that it could be a SIDs risk.
This is crazy.

The problem is that when they hit the teenage years you get a whole new list of things to worry about...
Yeah, I have to eventually realize that all I can do is prepare them the best I can for the world. I'm sure my parents worried about me all the time too.

Bro they have to put a salary cap on baseball...

Definitely because of experience, and a comfort feeling of having done it once already.
Makes sense, but I almost feel like the anxiety would double. I always have an irrational innate feeling that I need to monitor my kid 24/7. With technology these days, that's possible to. I don't think I'll be a helicopter parent but I think some of my anxiety is not wanting to f*** up a kid? I don't know if that makes sense or not.

First congrats on yr newborn son! Happy for you! I'm in my 60s and never married or had kids (the price I paid for being a player for most my life) but all my friends have told me theres nothing like having a kid, which I can believe. You care to comment on what its like? And despite minor annoyances, its gotta be the most wonderful feeling in the world! Good for you!
Thanks brother! I would post pictures, but I feel most of our forum colleagues would think it's probably cringe. He's a laid back baby for the most part. Doesn't cry unless he wants to eat or sleep. I'm grateful he's been easy to care for, and I know the storm is coming soon. The kid is ridiculously cute and I have to fight off mothers at the daycare when I pick him up. Even his teacher doesn't want to give him up when I pick him up. I don't know if it'll translate when he is older but if it does. He's going to be fighting off people haha. I know, I know you might say it's parental bias but I'm as pragmatic as they come. It's a wonderful thing to become a parent, I have seen my own personal changes as result.

2nd kid or teenage years, which ever comes first.
Is this because the anxiety shifts to the newest kid?
-
Does the constant anxiety of having a child ever go away?
He started rolling over on his own yesterday. It's crazy to see the development of a baby!

I think I answer this every year but I do the Almond Nog. I tried Oat Nog this year and it gave me the runs.

It's not even just that anymore The USA isn't even dominant in men's basketball anymore. They're certainly not dominant in baseball. They can possibly continue to be fairly dominant in some "American" sports, but probably not in most more global sports.
US won the last WBC. I think they have a good shot this upcoming one too.

Depressing times yall. Let's hope for a miracle or should I succumb to the numbness?

They have always lacked the true striker. It is a historical weakness and Behralter hasn't made it better with some of his usage whne it comes to some of his more elite pieces.
Yeah it's sad the USMNT is not on par with the USWNT in terms of dominance and winning. Zero excuses the US shouldn't be the top of the food chain in soccer.

I HATE prevent defense - wow that was an intense finale but nice to get the win. On to the Netherlands on Saturday...maybe they can somehow shock us, but either way - after 4 years ago disaster - this was nice. Now lets hope the injury to Pulisic is not too bad.
I will be honest. The US offense is abysmal. They should have put Iran down 2-0 or 3-0 but they couldn't convert on chances that elite teams will not miss on. They have their work cut out for them.

USA handing out L's to Iran in sports too. 😃

USA! USA! USA!

I don't want to derail the thread, but wasn't he found no guilty or whatever? I think the MLB just has beef with him over him consistently shitting on the league over the years.
