Pls send your tips and suggestions 🙏🏼

Hey mamas,

Does anyone have suggestions and tips they’d be willing to share for how you encouraged and taught your bubs to get into the sitting position by themselves AND to pull themselves up? My little one still hasn’t gotten these two down. I’ve tried helping him get into the side sitting position. For climbing/pulling up, we have those big blocks and he is able to climb up them via the triangular ramp block and he can get half his body up on the regular blocks but has no interest in climbing them further. He also doesn’t have any interest in pulling himself up in the crib or in his playpen. We have those grab rings hanging in the playpen as well.

Any tips would be appreciated! He’s 11 months now (born at 37 weeks). I get many babies just go at their own pace, but sometimes I worry.

I did the same thing Haley did. For crawling and walking too!

It came up as a reel on instagram for me but basically every time you pick them up from lying down roll them onto their side and then glide them up to sitting. It didn’t take long for him to do it himself after that. I don’t know about pulling to stand but there’s also no need to rush.

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 🙂

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.

Pumping advise

FTM to a 2 week old! I’m breastfeeding and then giving one formula bottle last in the evening before bed. I want to start expressing milk to give me some breathing room and also allow my partner to be more involved in feeding. I’m finding the idea of introducing pumping into my day quite overwhelming though. I don’t want to take milk away from my baby by pumping if he needs it during the day when being breastfeed.

Can anyone advise how I start pumping and when to do it? Thank you!
