| 0:00.0 | Hi, welcome to Big Fat Positive with Shauna and Laura. |
| 0:05.0 | Today on the show we have our weekly check-ins. |
| 0:07.0 | We have a new special segment called Never Have I Ever Parenting Edition where things |
| 0:11.6 | get scatological and we close with our BFPs and BFNs for the week. |
| 0:15.9 | Let's get to it. |
| 0:17.0 | Hi, everyone, welcome to the show. |
| 0:19.2 | This is episode 38 and Shauna, hello. Hi. everyone. Welcome to the show. This is episode 38. And Shauna, hello. Hello. Hi. You want to tell us what's going on with your week this week? |
| 0:26.9 | I do. All right. So my baby is 10 weeks old now. |
| 0:30.8 | Oh. And we've talked a little bit about like the Wonder Weeks and being in leaps and stuff like that. And my baby's wrapping up a |
| 0:38.6 | leap and I'm starting to see signs of new development, which is really exciting. But she's done |
| 0:43.9 | this week as she started reaching for her toys. Oh, fun. It is. I'm so cute. I'm so anxious for |
| 0:50.8 | stuff like that because I'm just like, start doing something, kid. Yeah, yeah. It just came out of the blue. It is so cute. So I have a pack and play, which has like a little mattress that is like kind of up more towards the top that I put her in and put a bunch of toys in. And she's got like this butterfly toy with rings hanging above her. And all of a sudden, and the other day, I just noticed that she's like grabbed the rings and is holding onto it |
| 1:14.4 | and like moving the thing around and like giggling at it and laughing and totally entertaining |
| 1:19.0 | herself. And it's awesome. Oh, go CC. Yeah. It's so cute. And what else is great about that |
| 1:25.4 | is now she can entertain herself for longer periods of time, like in that area or on her play mat. Whereas before, I think she would either get bored or confused or just sad that she was alone and want to be held a lot. Yeah. And so I'm noticing now I could put her in there. And if she's in the right mood, she'll reach for her toys and, like, laugh at them |
| 1:44.5 | and interact with them a lot more. And that gives her more time on her own and gives me a little |
| 1:49.4 | more time to make coffee and do things like that. So it's really exciting. That sounds heavenly. |
| 1:55.2 | Yeah. And then another thing I wanted to report is, you know, and listeners probably know, |
| 2:00.2 | that Cece's been sleeping in the |
| 2:02.0 | snoo, the robot crib. |
| 2:04.6 | Robot crib. |
| 2:05.6 | And that comes with an app that gives you a lot of statistics about your baby's sleep. |
