YESS!! I haven’t heard this struggle with any other baby. My boy doesn’t care about toys at all and hates tummy time. I’ve tried to put them in his hand and he just lets go of them. I tried to take him into a toy store to see if anything interested him and he just didn’t care. He seems pretty observant and has reached the other “milestones” for his age but never wants to touch. Does your little one prefer standing as well?

My son is the same way! 3 months on the 22nd! The past couple days though I’ve been putting silicone teething toys (like a banana shaped toothbrush) in his hand because he’s been AGGRESSIVELY eating his hands lately and he’s taken an interest in that but any other toy is a no go, doesn’t care, won’t willingly reach for anything

My baby doesn’t care about toys but when I make her do the tummy time, I put cartoons from my phone in front of her and she finds it interesting

My baby loves looking in a mirror and looking at toys that light up like our Little Einsteins keyboard. Has almost no interest in holding toys, just likes to look so far!

My baby is not even 4 days old and loves to roll on his left side to sleep.

No matter how many time I correct him back on his back he still rolls over. Should I be concerned? His bassinet isn’t wide enough for him to fully roll. When he side lays he can’t go farther than that.

First birthday party timing

What’s the best timing for a first birthday party? (Garden party at home)
Currently 9.5m old, on 2 naps roughly 9 & 13:00. Thinking 11:00-14:00? Is it likely they will drop to 1 nap by then?

What wrong with my baby

So I’m calling doctors tomorrow but just wanna check in here see if anyone knows what’s wrong. My daughter is 5 months old and in the past 2 weeks she’s started making these noises like she struggling for breath it doesn’t seem to bother her much and I thought it was bc she was getting excited before as it does happen when she’s exited but it’s started to get random she could be just sat there and it happen anyone know what’s could’ve going on !

Health visitors

I’m just wondering if any of your health visitors have made you feel like you’re not doing a good job as a mum by asking questions?

At what age did your baby start using pillows and duvet?

Perhaps a silly question, but as a FTM, I'm not sure when I should introduce my baby to sleep with a pillow and duvet. He is going to turn 12 months soon and that thought just came to my mind- I have no idea when it should happen!

What tog number is the recommend one?
