Daddy
Nanny
Ganda (grandad)
Bubble
Wahwah (water)
Bah (bag & bath)
Ball
Baby
Oh no
Duggee
Row row (for the song)

There may be a couple more but cant think. She also reacts to certain theme tunes and “sings” but not actually saying words, more shouting lol x

I actually started making a list this morning. I got to 60, so maybe 70-odd? She's a right chatterbox though, and I'm pretty sure she thinks she has more words than that, I'm just too dumb to figure out what she means 😅

Mum and Mummy, daddy but very rarely, rawr rawr rawr for a dog or any animal it seems lol! Oh dear, boo, ball, baby, wow, hey hi and hiya, Coco for cocomelon, yee-yee for Lilly, yeah, up, all gone and all gone away... that's all I can think of off top of my head. She makes the actions of wheels on the bus if she wants that on, which is all the time lol! She also smells feet, socks or shoes and goes pwoah lol! 😅

just mama nana baby and dada lol

Mine is pretty lazy with speech. She just points and big sister delivers- just like I was when I was a baby apparently. From the top of my head she says
Night night
Bye bye
THIS! (Her fave, while pointing 😄)
Here
Mama
Dada
Cat
Horse
Yes

Mine says:
Mama
Auntie
Uncle
Cocomelon
Nana (banana)
Apple
Socks
Shoes (she's obsessed with shoes)
Sit
No (of course)
Yeah
Law (her uncle called Lawrence)
Oh dear (I say this constantly)
Night night
Hello
Bye bye

I'm sure there's more. She also responds very well to things. I.e if I say get the remote, shoe, open the door, sit she does these things.

These are the things I can think of on top of my head

I have a boy and he says up…. Believe me, we talk, sing, read and say words to him hoping he’ll repeat them…. We always have done this. He just growls or roars, laughs, runs away or goes and plays with his toys… I have a feeling he’ll go from 0-100 just randomly out of the blue 😂

When does it get better?

I was crying on the phone with the perinatal mental health team today and the lovely lady, bless her, kept assuring me that it gets better. I kept telling her I hope so because people have been saying that since having my LO and it just feels like it keeps getting worse. She assured me it gets better....

Rant/WWYD

My sister (youngest, 24) has two kids, 4 & 1, and i (oldest, 30) just have my one who’s 6mo old right now, so i ask her for advice or call her to vent about things sometimes. Well im tired of her turning around and telling my other family members that I’m “losing my sh*t.” Literally have not lost my sh*t nor have i ever freaked out to her about my baby, i just call her to talk and tell her what stage my baby is in or talk through how im feeling, but she chooses to tell people that im like a complete nutcase or something which worries me that my family is going to start being judgmental about me as a mother or looking at me funny like I’m some fragile ticking time bomb.

What would you do in this situation? I’m already pretty much decided that I’ll stop telling her anything about my struggles, but I’m almost at the point where i feel like it should be confronted because she, of all people, should understand what I’m going through.

Not drinking

I’m going crazy. Baby born at 2.26kg. Slow to put on weight. This last week hasn’t put on any. Been trying to feed him at night and he’s not interested at all. Fast asleep. During day he will have 5 minute gulps and that’s it. He don’t cry for milk. I’ve got to keep offering to him. I try to offer it every hour but I don’t know what I’m doing. HV said nutrition comes after 5 minutes so I should pump first and then give him. I find it so hard. I tried to pump one boob nothing came. The other abit came. Tried giving him express he’s not interested in that too. Sometimes he will go for a longer a feed but not long at all. He’s 4 months and is currently 5.46kg. I have no family or friend support here and wish I had a cook, cleaner and nanny to help with everything so I can concentrate on the little one. I don’t know what’s wrong with him but I’m loosing it. It doesn’t help that my also stressed generally about my relationship and life circumstances. Any advice that will work. Any comfort you can give. I’m fed up. Is this regression - not feeding. He’s fast fast asleep. I’ve been trying to push the nipple in but that mouth is closed shut. I took some clothes off. Changed his nappy but he’s still asleep. Please help

Sleeping bag

8 week old in sleeping bag for first time as big enough! Do you feed your child in the night whilst in the sleeping bag or taken them out, feed then transfer back to sleeping bag before putting down?

Leaky nappy help

What nappies are you using to stop leaks?? We use pampers ultra dry size 5, and for the past few nights he has lashed through and we’ve had to completely change him during the night. Last night he leashed through twice!! He sleeps on his front and stays leaks through at the top of his leg where the tabs connect. Didn’t know whether to size up, he has a bit of a belly on him but he’s smack in middle of weight guidance so shouldn’t need too

Has anyone died their kids hair a fun color and have any recommendations for kid friendly hair dye that actually works and stays in the hair for a bit? 👀👀👀
