Mama Thoughts

You can call me Sunny, Sunshine, Mama Bear, Mama, or really anything else! (Don’t worry I’ll let you know if I get uncomfy!!) I use she/her pronouns, and I identify as bisexual!

I’m 19 years old, and a caregiver! I love cuddling with my little ones, watching movies, making snacks, and reading stories!

I love writing, and I have a fairly popular story on both Wattpad and Ao3 called “Little Secrets, Little Bucky”. If you’re ever wondering what kind of caregiver I am, give it a read! Bucky’s caregiver is based on myself!

This is a safe place that I created for myself to share my thoughts and vent about my feelings as a caregiver! I have a lot of maternal instincts that tend to build up and I’m hoping that this will be a good outlet.

I’d also love to make some friends. Fellow caregivers, littles, both, neither, I don’t mind a bit! I love talking to just about everyone, so feel free to send in asks or DM me! I am new to tumblr (sort of, it’s complicated!) so bear with me if I make any mistakes!

(If you want to immediately become my favorite person ever, send me asks about my fictional littles!! It’s a bullet train to my heart :) )

I’ll probably update this over time, but that’s all I can think of for now!

Loki isn’t one of my main fictional littles, but I absolutely adore him and I’d love to read it!!

Also I would love to request a little Bucky fic!!!

Hello! I’ve got a couple activities that I think are lots of fun!

The first is going outside and laying in a blanket! Look at the bugs in the grass, the clouds in the sky, and the leaves on the trees. Let Mother Nature mesmerize you!

Movie days! Super fun, and there’s no need to get off the couch or out of bed. For extra fun, have some themed snacks!

Blowing bubbles! Blow them yourself or have a caregiver blow them for you! It’s so fun to look at the bubbles and maybe even try to pop them!

Waking up to my little one’s quiet voice calling out to me, and opening my eyes to see them standing by my bed with their favorite stuffie, still rubbing at their sleepy eyes.

“What are you doing up my little love? It’s too early to start the day.”

Pulling back the covers to make room for them, and quickly finding my arms full of a very sleepy baby.

“Get some more rest, Mama will still be here when you wake up.”

Hello!! So when I’ve had to help my babies be big, I’ve had a couple of techniques that made it a little easier for both of us.

The first was that they had 20, 10, and 5 minute warnings so that they wouldn’t feel blindsided.

I also gave them plenty of time, instead of having them rush. If they needed to be big by a certain time I would start the process much earlier than necessary, a minimum of thirty minutes.

One of the most helpful tips I can give you is that if they have comfort items, do not take them away just because they need to be big. All it will do is distress them. Personally, I would have them help me put away their other things. For example, one of my babies had a very special blankie. So he would help me put away his pacifiers, teethers, sippy cups, stuffies, toys, etc, but me could keep his blankie with him until he was ready to let go.

Also, I’ve found it VERY helpful to separate nicknames. Now I’m not saying that you have to completely keep every single nickname in one category, I’m just saying that there should be certain names that are only used when they are big and certain names that are only used when they are little. This can help with the transition.

And last: talk to your baby!!! Communication is key, always. Ask them what would make the process easier. Ask them what they feel is the most distressing part so that you guys can find a solution. The biggest mistake that I see caregivers make is assuming that they need to have all of the answers. You guys are a team! That means you can work together to find answers!
