Brushing teeth

I keep forgetting to brush my girls teeth 😭😭😭 how do you always remember to do it morning and night?

I’ll try do one at least but sometime I forget to do both morning and evening.

And no I don’t forget to do mine lol but bedtime with twins is SUCH a hectic time that I just about have time to breathe

We brush together or I brush him after me.

I keep forgetting too, I’m gonna have to try work it into her routine maybe before her morning nap?

Make it part of ur morning and bedtime routine. Leave toothbrushes somewhere prominent until its cemented into ur day. I used to forget my oldests teeth sometimes initially but now I do them without thinking about it. Am hoping that when my Sept 2022 baby finally gets some teeth (!) I'll just do his at the same time and it'll be easier than with my oldest lol

I do it in the morning before getting him dressed and either in the bath at night or just before I get him dressed again for bed x

Bevause I have one child
When I brush mine I brush his
And even if I’m not sleeping that early lol
So his aware

Do it almost together

I do it in the morning when I wash her face and then before bath time. Sometimes we forget too though! X

I leave her toothbrush downstairs in the kitchen. I brush her teeth straight after breakfast in the morning and straight after her bottle at night. Leaving the tooth brush where I can see it helps with that, I have to leave her vitamins next to it aswell or ill forget them

We make night brushing part of bathtime routine and morning brushing he does with me

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!
