High chair recommendations?

I’ve got a £40 mamas and papas voucher so ideally from what they sell on there! But nothing too expensive!

I got the Mamas and Papas snax highchair and I quite like it, having difficulty figuring out the straps though cause they're tighted to the max and still to big for my little one 🥲

Could you use the voucher for something else? The Ikea Antilop is highly recommended for positioning, easy to clean etc and you can buy bits off of etsy if you don’t like how plain it is.. It’s also only £19 so that’s a bonus

I dont have one from Mamas and Papas but mine has good foot support and a harness to keep him inside lol And my straps as well are too big on him slightly. But with the tray on he’s not going anywhere.

I asked in a local mums group and 90% of the girls said the IKEA antilop, we ended it getting it and it’s fab, only £19 and all plastic so easy to clean, can buy extras aswell xx

Chloe I’m having the same issue with the straps. There must be a way to tighten from the back!?

It's so frustrating there has to be a way hahaha! The instructions don't help in the slightest 🤦‍♀️

We’ve gone for a cosatto waffle as my little one is very small and we needed something which could be fully adjustable and supportive xx

I have this high chair and I thought the same like there should be something at the back to stop it pulling through, but then my sister came round and was like Gemma you’ve got it on the loosest so… if you have a mum brain like me, double check the straps and move them the other way to see if they get tighter or not. I was convinced there was some part missing and it was me being stupid 😂

Thanks and I’m going to try this now. Glad I’m not the only one

I have the 8 in 1 maxi cosi and have to say it’s really good. We’d previously bought the maxi cosi Ava which was awful

Thanks & @Gemma I'm going to try this, hopefully it'll work and stop my girl chewing on the straps 😂

8 week immunisations

My 8 week old has his first set of injections tomorrow and I’m abit nervous. Does anyone have any advice for after the jabs? I know they get a temp after so have got some calpol to give just before hand. Should I put him to bed in less clothing to make sure he doesn’t get too hot? Any tips from your experience with first set of immunisations? Am I worrying more than I need to? 😅

Of these two, which seems more overall “demanding” to you, overall? Lighthearted poll, not putting anyone down 🫶🏼

As a mum who breastfed for 3 years, I think formula feeding seems 100x harder and more demanding. I give those mamas all the credit because I could not keep up with that faff haha. I truly don’t understand why people say breastfeeding is more effort, other than the fact that no one else can do it. But personally I’d take that over endless bottle prep & cleaning.

Signs of Neurodivergent Toddler

Any moms of neurodivergent toddlers who could help me out? My son is 13 months old. I know that is technically too early for a diagnosis, but I have a gut feeling that he is on the autism spectrum.

The main sign he shows is hand leading. He does not point at all, and instead will take my hand and lead me anywhere he wants to go,
getting very frustrated if I do not follow.

He is also extremely sensitive to being touched, especially when it comes to hats and putting clothes on. He won’t let anything touch his head or face and I have to fight him to brush his teeth, comb his hair, etc.

He’s very interested in things that aren’t toys and will repeat the same behavior over and over. He can go in and out of doors or walk up and down stairs for hours. He loves taking things out of containers and putting the back in repeatedly.

We recently took him on his first vacation and he REALLY struggled with the change. He struggles with any type of transition or change in routine.

He laughs, makes eye contact, mostly responds to his name, but doesn’t do any other gestures.

Normal toddler behavior or signs of ASD? Let me know your thoughts!

4 month sleep regression

Does anyone else feel like they’re back in the newborn trenches through the 4 month sleep regression ?? 😭😭 my boy turned 4 months yesterday and the past 3 nights he’s woken up every 20-40 minutes. He does manage to get back off to sleep after I give him his dummy. It’s so strange though because his daytime naps don’t seem to be affected? He has 2 x long naps a day (around 2 hours) and a couple 30-40 minutes here and there and seems fine during them, it’s just his night time sleep! I read it can last for 6 weeks, I pray it doesn’t because I am shattered 🤣🤣

11 month old constantly standing in cot

Please tell me someone has some advice for this cause wow it’s trying. My almost 11 month old is fully on the move now and his new favourite thing is repeatedly pulling to stand in his cot. The problem is that he wears a sleep sack (mainly so his legs don’t get stuck between the bars tbh lol) so he’s not stable enough to lower himself down. So earlier he fell backwards and hit is head and now we feel like we can’t just leave him to it. Typically it’s his first full day at nursery tomorrow and my first day back at work IT’S LIKE HE KNOWS!!
Please tell me someone has some tips. Currently we are quietly placing him back on his back every time but he just keeps doing it! 🤣🤡
