willow spanish equivalent

i reaaaaally want to name my next child willow, but we are spanish household. i dont want to hear “just name them what you want”, i want my children to feel connected their community through their names. im looking for something like willow but that has more hispanic roots to it. its genus name is salix (say-lix), which i like, but i feel like it may be too out there. open to boy girl and neutral names

Maybe just babe to them that but give them a Hispanic middle name. In my family where I grew up we used half of our first name for females and the boys were named after dads so they were big June or little June white June etc. My husband they all had weird nicknames. I now only use my kids middle names that people get them confused on what's they're real names lol

Do you like the name because of the sound or the tree? Like are you looking for Spanish names that sound like willow or Spanish names that have similar meaning to willow?

By Spanish household, you mean just the lenguage or from Spain? Because depending wich country you come from, you might find nicer names in a native or indigenous tongue from the country you are from, for example , I’m Mexican and a native name is Xochitl wich means flower.

I see your dilemma. There are over 400 types of willow trees. Maybe one of them translates a little better?

Do men really enjoy fellatio?

Been together more than 10 years, but it's been a while since he even seemed remotely interested in me getting on my knees, or vice versa so to speak. I think it was once last year. Must be something I am doing wrong 🤔. Generally everything else in that department is great and we have two young kids with no extra support, so it's quite surprising we can't keep our hands off each other but may need to try new things. It's basically 2 positions each time with some foreplay.

Vanilla extract

Has anyone used alcohol free vanilla in their babies formal to help them drink?
I’m 100% sure my baby refuses her bottles as she doesn’t like the taste of it!

Just anxious to try it, don’t want her to get used to it and then refuse bottles again after two weeks of using (correct me if I’m wrong but I’ve read you use it for 2 weeks max)

TIA 🙂

Car seat crying

My 6 month old PANICS the second I put him in a car seat and screams, cries, chokes and recently even projectile vomited on a 14 minute drive. It’s gotten to the point I don’t even bring him out unless it’s to a doctors appointment. I’m a stay at home mom with no family in my state and it has been very isolating. We’ve tried 3 different car seats with no improvement. Has anyone had a baby who hated the car seat? Any advice? This started at 3 months. I will add it does seem worse when he’s tired. He does cry on every trip though. He only contact naps and co sleeps so he reaches for me and will not sleep in the car seat.

Sex post C section

Hi ladies I’m 4 weeks 5 days postpartum and I had a C section. I’m not bleeding properly anymore just some brownish discharge stuff that starts on and off. I’d like to do the deed with my partner; is it okay to do so or shall I wait the full 6 weeks. I feel up for it but also worried because the advice is 6-8 weeks.

Little one is 9 months old and will have 2 half hour naps and one solid 1 hour - 2 hour nap a day

Then settles for night around 9pm. Wakes for a feed around 3:30 then sleeps until 6-7
