Bum Shuffler

anyone else’s babies have no interest in crawling?
My LO bum shuffles EVERYWHERE - ok, slight lie… she will walk aided, but won’t even entertain the thought of crawling…🙈

A lot of people I know have said they’ve never seen a baby do this before, I just wondered if I birthed a crazy child😂

P.s. we call it a ‘boot scoot’ to make it sound cuter, then I sing “my boot scooting baby is driving me crazy” to her😅

Same here with mine,who refused to crawl but rather did back strokes n boot scooting

My first did this- and she had 2 different ways of scooting, one of them being quicker than the other… she only crawled after she was already walking 😂 also I bum shuffled as a baby

My LO learned to walk a month before learning to crawl. But she can do both equally well now.

My friends LO did this and she got quicker and quicker and could literally get from one side of the room to the other in seconds 🤣 too cute

back strokes? I bet that was interesting to watch😅

I apparently had no interest in crawling as a baby but I eventually done it… I reckon my LO will be like yours, crawling after walking

Oh bless her. I reckon that’s what my LO will do, walk then crawl…

She’s really quick now, this videos a few weeks old… I literally can’t contain this child now😂

My boy just drags himself around with his arms, no bum shuffling, no crawling, no walking yet but he does love a stand.

Poop question

Hey mommas I’m a ftm and my babygirl hasn’t pooped in two days she’s formula feed and is 12 weeks old. I can tell she’s uncomfortable and I feel so bad. I’ve been doing belly rubs and bicycle kicks and all the things like that. Also gave her some gas drops and gripe water to relieve the gas but still no poop. Does anyone have any tips or tricks for me. Pic so we don’t get lost💕

Health Visitor Home Visit

Hii, could anyone explain what the health visitor does on their home visit?

Also if anyone had a home birth, what the midwife home risk assessment involves?

I’ve got 3 home visits coming up in the next two weeks (health visitor, midwives and doula) and it’s making me nervous for some reason. I think having 3 just feels like a lot and a bit invasive if that makes sense!

Who else is out there holding a baby thru the night so his noises dont wake up the house?!

I cant believe im still doing this at 15 months old!!!

My 2nd child is not just the noisiest sleeper but they have always been weird with breastfeeding

I think currently he is having some kinda developmental leap and growth spurt, eating and drinking like crazy and in the middle of the night if he wakes up , it takes ages to put back to sleep and he rolls around making sooooo much noise!!!

And i either have a low supply now OR he loves a fast flow and so he just jumps off the boob when it slows and complains loudly or just talks cutely but loudly! and i have to keep swapping boobs OR i have to get up and hold him and feed so gravity helps and the flow is faster and holding him means he eventually sleeps or at-least is feeding properly so is bloody quiet now! So at 1 am or 3am or often 5am onwards im holding n feeding until he wakes up 🥲🥲🥲

Any tips?

How’s everyone’s babies sleeping?

My little one is 19 weeks, she used to sleep through when we would put her to bed at around 10pm, she would sleep through until 6-7 am.
Now she gets so tired around 8 pm so we moved her bedtime here, but coming with this is 1-2 night feeds and she’ll be wide awake at 6 am, which I know is still amazing but I am currently as sick as a dog so hasn’t been the best for my flu 🤣.
I’m unsure whether this is the regression though as her naps are very scattered throughout the day with the max nap being 30 minutes through contact only.
Does this sound like the regression? When did your little one start sleeping through again if they ever did? Thanks in advance 🤗❤️

Sleeping position pregnant

29 weeks pregnant.. read only to sleep on left side but end up waking up on my right side..

Im just so uncomfortable sleeping 😩

How are we entertaining our babies

What toys does everyone have for their 7 month old?
Nothing is satisfying my little girl she's got blocks, rattles, playmats loads more. She would much rather hold my hands and walk all day but I cant physically do that and whenever I put her down to play she just wont, is this just a faze?
