Teething

My little guy turned 4 months on Friday and yesterday his ped confirmed he’s starting to teeth 😩 he also got the green light to start baby food, it’s all happening so fast. Anyone else in the same boat? I’m emotionally not ready for teeth and introducing baby food lol…but I am at the same time, parenting is so weird 😅

So true, not in the same boat as you... yet! Have a feeling our doc will tell us the same thing when we see her tomorrow for her 4 month appt. It's like milestone after milestone which is fantastic but I'm so not ready!

We go on Monday for his 4 month appointment and we already got some baby food for him to try 😂😂 he was teething when we went at 3 months 😫 im so excited for him to try food, but it seems to be going wayyy too fast and im definitely not ready for teeth especially since im breastfeeding 🤦🏻 I feel like hes doubled in size since birth too 😫

Yeeepp I'm right there with you. I feel like he's been teething for awhile but it isn't official yet. His 4 month appointment is next week. He also for the first time rolled from back to belly while swaddled last night in his crib 😳🤯. Luckily I was awake and watched it happen. I was like oh my goodness...no more swaddles. Holy crap 😭

@Christian Nicole you can continue swaddling just take baby's arms out

oh yeah I know - I've already got the armless swaddles on deck 😉

School pick up mums

Trying to work out the school pick up routine. When you have a baby and a school age kid what helps you to be ready on time? Advice welcome

Male nursery worker

Am I being unreasonable? I feel uncomfortable with a male nursery worker changing my daughter’s nappies. I was told he was “helping out” for a day? But no explanation was given. Can I raise it with the head without being seen as problematic? To be completely honest, I found it unsettling and odd he just appeared out of the blue..

Screen-Free

Any other moms doing no screens? How do you get anything done or deal with the crying?? I feel like I never get a moment for myself or to even do things that need to be done like cleaning or cooking. My baby loves to be held all day but hates carriers. No judgement please! We are trying to do no screens for the first two years. Sometimes I have to just let him cry for a bit while I do something for myself and it feels awful. And let's not even get into the screaming in the car...I don't know if it's true and I feel kinda bad for saying this but I feel like screen-free parents just deal with a lot more crying 😞

Childminders

After a bit of advice. My son has been at a childminders since September last year. I'm finding her to be increasing unreliable, so far this year she's had 4 days closed and multiple times when I drop him off she informs me I need to collect him early, sometimes 2 hours early.
This is losing me money as I have a job that I can then not go to, as it's too short notice to arrange alternative childcare.
I've not had a childminder before, so I'm unsure if this is the norm?

Does anyone homeschool toddlers 2-3 years old?

If yes can you share what resources you are using, where you find them etc…
