Mountain buggy or bugaboo donkey 5?

So torn between these two buggies. Any recommendations from anyone who has these? I’d really like them side by side! Thank you ☺️

I have a mountain buggy and it’s great. Fits through all doors. When I looked at the bugaboo donkey I felt it was just a bit bulky for me. But it’s all down to preference!

I have pushed the bugaboo and it was nice and smooth and easy round corners but yes it does feel pretty big!
do you know where wells the mountain buggy? So I can trial it? Can only seem to see it online! Also any particular make from the mountain buggy? Thank you! X

I have an icandy but wanted a side by side for options. Settled on the mountain buggy nano duo as its slimmer than the bugaboo donkey with 2 car seats attached and more versatile so we could travel with it also

I have the mountain buggy duet and absolutely love it! It’s fit through every door so far and on the bus only thing I’m not a big fan of is the clips to put the bassinets on and off I struggle to get them undone

do you know if any shops sell them so I can actually push one? X

I looked on here then rang the shops near me to see if they had one I could try push around

Ah amazing! Thank you x

I was in exactly the same position but went for the Bugaboo Donkey in the end as felt it was more sturdy and the beds/ seats clip in and out of it. I don't believe you can clip car seats into a mountain buggy x

ah really! I just wanted to push the mountain to compare although we are really keen on the donkey as it was so smooth and nice to push around. Xx

My son “wiggles his bum” not sure how to approach it

He is 3. He lays face down and goes left right - wiggles his privates on his bed/sofa etc. Calls it “wiggling his bum” should I be concerned or is it a good idea to set boundaries? Not sure how to approach this. Advice appreciated

thoughts…

it’s my birthday in a few weeks and i’ve just found out my partner has bought me some lingerie… a few years ago this would have been fine, except i’ve just had 3 babies in 16 months (singleton and twins) and im currently 8 weeks postpartum… i currently hate how my body looks and know i won’t want to wear anything like it.
i’ve also recently discovered he is watching porn and pleasuring himself nearly every day… this isn’t something i would normally mind, but i think the frequency he is doing it makes me feel “icky”. it feels like he’s bought me the underwear to make me more appealing to him, without thinking about whether it would be something i’d want.

am i just being overly sensitive..?

Breastfeeding past 12 months

Guys im getting irritated. Ive been ebf now 8 months and my mum keeps saying in diff ways that “oh ur mummys gonna wean you off the breast soon” when shes 12 months.

And today shes telling me you cant breastfeed past 12 months.

And when i said i am going to and want to reach at least 2 years. Shes not saying “oh so u wanna breastfeed till 5”

Like what?

And then she’s saying because i still have baby weight i should go on manjaro. But obvs cant do that while breastfeeding.

So cant you still loose weight while breastfeeding past 12 months through diet and exercise?

Is anyone else’s family saying this about breastfeeding past 12 months? My mums just making me feel like im doing something wrong.

Is it not normal? I feel just annoyed because this is my baby and if im good with still breastfeeding her and if she still wants to breastfeed why should i stop.

How does breastfeeding past 12 months look like ?

Thank you! My rants over💗💗

Don't know what to do

Hey im a first time mom to my baby girl. she is 20 days old and last night was up most the night. I've had 2 hours sleep total im so tired but she won't sleep at all. She will wake up and have some of a bottle and then when I put her down after burping her she will start crying half an hour later for more. She's on 6 ounces of hungry baby formula. Im just not sure why this is happening. Could it be sleep regression?

Dummy removal cold turkey at 8m

My LO (8 months) wakes constantly, hourly sometimes because she needs the dummy. I wouldn’t even mind if I had to just reinsert it. But if it falls out she wakes and will escalate until I hold her. Depends on it strongly to fall asleep. Even holding her I need to give her the dummy. Takes ages to get her back in cot. This is all night. I’m so sleep deprived and can’t function. I’m considering removing cold turkey. Any advice ??? Is this the right thing to do

Wake window ideas

Hi All my LO is 9.5 weeks, sleeps really well at night (a 5-7 hour stretch, followed by a 3-4 hour) but that means she is awake lots in the day, she’ll have 30-40 minute naps and is wide awake 1.5-2 hours at a time, before I can even think about trying to get her back to sleep.
I’m just looking for age appropriate wake window ideas, she hates lying under her baby gym, she’ll do probably max 10 mins a day, we do tummy time, but again she’s not a fan. She loves just sitting and chatting with me face to face and reading books, we probably read 6 a day.
I’m open to all ideas please
