2 year sleep regression or just sick?

My son turned 2 in august. The last two nights he’s been waking and just crying. Or more so like whining in his sleep and tossing and turning a lot, also he’s sweating quiet a bit. Anyone know what could cause this? He has a doctor appointment next week so I will bring it up to his pediatrician but just curious what could cause this because he’s been sleeping through the night for the well over a year so it’s throwing me off.

Also I should add, he hasn’t been sick so I’m wondering if maybe this is the start of an illness since he just started back in his early head start program a couple weeks ago.

My daughter went through a phase of waking up crying for nothing when she was just over 2 it only lasted a month or two and she’s back to sleeping through x

could be sleep regression sometimes they might need a little comforting or something to comfort him and my daughter has been sweating since about three months but her doctor said it was normal and she is 4 and still sweats and is healthy

Same thing happened to my girl when she was 2.5. It lasted a month or so and finally stopped. Her bottom molars popped up around the same time (not sure if it was a coincidence 🤷🏻‍♀️). You'll get through it!!

Little update for you guys my LO has HFM unfortunately but that explains what’s been going on. Thank you all for all the advice ❤️

I'm sorry to hear that! My 2.5 year old, 3 month old and I just got that last month. Hope it passes soon and no one else gets it!

Wdy think of this for a toddler to learn word construction?

I'm open to anything else to start teaching him to read and write. He's 3!

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.

Naps

How is everyone doing for naps?

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

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.
