2014 - 2016 Older Sibling Stimboard with Games and Agere Themes!! 💗🎮

carer who says it's naptime but tiny refuses n insists they're big n they wanna keep playing. carer who nods along like "okay sweetheart, we're just gonna get you a warm baba and cuddle up now. papas gonna dim the lights and put some brown noise on the tv-- he just thinks it's a bit much in here." regressor who agrees and falls eep.

regressor who keeps trying to or taking off their padding. carer who is tired of taping them back up or getting new pullups all together, so they use their noggin and just puts them in a onesie. regressor whos too tiny/motor skill nerfed by regression to unsnap it. baby grabbing weakly at the fabric n pulling in hopes of it magically coming off as carer watches and does a silent fist pump

regressor who has something they shouldn't and refuses to give it up. carer who has to shush their whines and negotiate with them. carer who finds something they rlly want and introduces it as a trade. "hey, look what I have hun-- yeah it's sharkie! isnt she so soft? I know! hey hey, mama will give you sharkie if you give mama that bottle cap you're nibbling on, yeah?" regressor who will give up the item for their paci, stuffie, toy, bottle, etc. "good girl baby!!"

regressor who cries without their emotional support stuffie, blankie, pillow, etc. carer who washes them when they're big or sleeping so the next time they're little, it's all clean n ready. carer who goes great lengths to stay on top of your schedule to ensure success "good morning bubs, you gotta be a big kiddo today at work yeah? aww, I know, but once it's over, you can be bubbas little baby again. they'll make sure all your stuff is ready"

If you're going to vent in main agere tags at least use vent tags too so we can filter it out :/ You really need to trigger tag your posts if you're talking about stuff that could be upsetting for regressors IN THE REGRESSOR TAGS. There are literally AGERE VENT TAGS.

No, regression isn't happy all the time, but that doesn't mean that all of us want to see it untagged in our online safe space. Some people keep their vent separate from their online blogs and that is OKAY. Some people use their online blogs to escape from triggering topics and that's OKAY. The general tags are supposed to be safe. Posting stuff untagged pulls people out of it. You dont even have to just Not Post It. You dont have to tag every post you make with agere tags. People scroll those tags to RELAX! Ugh.

Nautical baby

Mama who always has sensory toys in their bag to help ground their baby. Crinkly toys, spin gadgets or pain fidgets to help ground them via their hands or fingers.

Mama who always talks them through it and pulls them aside if the episode happens in public places. Quiet spaces work best to bring their baby back

Mama who talks to them in a firm voice to get them out of it, but no anger and no fear. Cause fear makes situations worse.

Mama who holds their hands tight and bear hugs them to reassure them that they are here and not in that dream state. Mama holds them and pats them to make sure they're able to notice that they're body is here, as well as their mind.

Mama who breathes with their baby and doesn't rush them so they know that they're safe and ok to go through it, even If it is scary.

Mama who has snacks to bring them back like sour candies or spicy foods.

Mama who coos and tells them that it's alright and gives them stuffies or comfort items after it passes.

Mama who doesn't discourage them from holding onto their items or them after. These episodes are super scary and babies need their mamas and/or stuffies.

Remember kiddos, derealization may be super scary, (I suffer from it so I totally understand how you guys feel!) But with the right items, words and coping mechanisms, it WILL pass! Even if it comes again n again. It will always pass. You are so much stronger than those icky episodes and feelings. And your mamas, papas and bubbas are always there to comfort you all. You are NOT a burden. And you give so much love to your caregivers, and they love you just as much!

baby regressor sniffling and clinging to their carer... not particularly upset over anything in specific just feeling emotional in general... head buried into their shoulder as your carer gently bounces you in their arms... carer letting you drift off to sleep against their chest, head on their shoulder...
