Anyone else’s little one experiencing extra clinginess and refusal of sleep. My daughter is 8 months old and refusing to nap during the day. We cosleep at night and lately that’s how I’ve been getting her to nap. She doesn’t take pacifiers and uses the nipple for comfort.

So I go to meet w/ my therapist tomorrow at 12 and I'm so nervous like I don't even know where to start to even tell her what's going on with me. Im constantly having to fight with my brain to keep going and to stay alive for my kids. I literally hate my living situation, me and my partner are constantly arguing, I...

Working through birth trauma and trying to come to terms with/understand what I experienced as I was neglected quite a bit. One thing that’s been playing on my mind is I was told to remove the Pessary myself as she forgot to come check me (I had to go find her in the corridor..) she said she had other things to do ...

How long did it take everyone else after they stopped breastfeeding to get their period back? I know it’s different for everyone and can even come back while breastfeeding. I stopped breastfeeding almost 2 weeks ago and just want to be prepared!

I’m currently 2 weeks into trying to dry up my breast milk. I was pumping 30 minutes every 3-4 hours, about 5 or 6 times a day. Now I’m down to 20 minutes every 5-6 hours, about 3 times a day. And I feel like I am not drying up…I cannot go cold turkey because unfortunately I am prone to mastitis because I clog very ...

Any advice on sleep training?! My boy just turned 4 months on the 18th of this month and we’re in his sleep regression era at this point. And hes only staying asleep for like 1 hour to 1.5 hours While tackling that, we’re also trying to sleep train him. He’s still in the bedside bassinet so at this point we’re jus...

My baby boy is 4 weeks and starting to make cooing sounds and also starting to smile at me... it's bittersweet and so cute lol are y'all babies doing the same?

My 8 week old doesn’t go down for naps during the day! If he does he needs to be held and usually will wake up when out down into his bassinet. He’s a really light sleeper and won’t sleep for more than 20 mins so he’s overtired and teary by the end of the day. He’s sleeps pretty well during the night going back down...

Thanks in advance! 🪥🦷

What time does your little one wake up for the day? How old are they? Do you believe a baby’s wake up time is their natural biological clock or it can be adjusted to meet your desired wake up time?

Tonight is my daughter's first night in her toddler bed. I'm due with baby #2 in July so we're starting the transition now to try to make it easier lately. We have a baby gate set up outside her door so she can open the door but can't get out and she keeps going and crying at it and shaking the bars. How do I make t...

For those of you whose preschool is in elementary school and does carline drop off same line as elementary drop off, how do you drop your child off when your child can’t unbuckle seatbelt by themselves? Especially the red buckle part that you have to press really hard to get it unbuckle? I’ll definitely ask the sc...

My baby hasn’t pooed in over a day (maybe 30 hours?). We’ve tried exercises and also Infacol. She is passing wind but not pooping. Any help? She is uncomfortable (16 days old)

I almost lost my baby last night and when I say so many thoughts was on my mind like what would I do if I did and I’m already dealing with pain I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy and then not having nobody to help really made me realize how strong I really am and I thank the most high because lord knows ppl say I’m t...

I had my little girl on Friday all is good but the only thing I’m struggling with is getting her to sleep in the next to me every time I put her down she squeels iv tried white noise and rocking and nothing she just refuses any tips would be great

I’m overwhelmed by the amount of choice in high chairs! Which one do you have and would you recommend? Also, why is the stokke trip trap so expensive for just the stand 🤪 EDIT: for those of you saying IKEA does your baby have another chair to chill in when you’re eg. In the kitchen or in the bathroom, I feel like…

Hey everyone, My 4 month old has been getting a bath everyday for the past 2 weeks but today we heard that we shouldn’t be doing that because it dries out their skin. He does seem to have eczema but baths calm him down at night and we want to set a bedtime routine with him. Just wondering how often you give your b...

My baby is 8 days old now. He is heavy (well at least for me he is heavy) I can only hold him if someone gives him to me and I’ve got back support (chair/bed). I can’t really pick him up and walk much as my whole upper back will be in pain the rest of the day. I am not that interested in belly bands (heard mixed r...
