April 2025 Babies 🇺🇸

my husbands family are big drinkers, and with my sons first birthday coming around i’m asking that we do not turn this into an excuse for everyone to get drunk. my side of the family is totally on board, but my husband doesn’t think his family will be. i want this day to be solely focused on our son, his first celebration of life and keep it family friendly! it’s being hosted at my husbands grandparents house but im doing all the preparing, but his grandparents have alcohol at the house anyway.. my husband says i can’t dictate what people do and that i can’t tell people what they can and can’t do, but im just trying to set the tone for the party im hosting.

Find a baby that has the same birthday as your baby. I'll start. My baby's birthday is April 11. Even if we live in different places I will video call or send a present to the birthday twin. Babies need friends too.

Any food or fun activities does your family do?

Is anyone else lowkey dreading their babes 1st birthday? I’m like devastated.. I think a lot of it stems from thinking back to how traumatic his birth was but it’s like flooding in at once and like your telling me my baby will never be a baby again?! Like I’m so saddd. don’t get me wrong I’m definitely excited to see all of the new things he learns and continue to see his personality grow but I’m also just feeling all the feels rn 😭❤️

Is any one weaning from breast feeding to trying to get little one to stop breast feeding? If so I need help 🤣 I have been trying to wean little man for over a month maybe 2 now and it is so hard! As when I refuse to give him the breast he screams… I’ve stopped pumping completely and only nurse to sleep/when he wakes up and after work and when he falls and gets hurt is a big time he wants the boob. I try so hard but then I give in and give him my boob. Like rn I am waiting for a therapy session and he’s screaming because I am in my husband and my room and he’s down stairs with dad and he just wants me and wants to nurse 🤦‍♀️ and I’m fighting the urge to say just bring him here
