Refusing nappy

Wondering anyone has any words of wisdom. So my LG 21 months is refusing her nappy after every bath at moment. Like hysterical screaming 🫠 I don’t know why but literally she tries pulling it off 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’ve literally spent the last 15-20 battling when she’s had a nice time in bath and happily got out. She tells me when she’s pood, the odd occasion in the day she also battles with us changing her.

I had this around 13months 😴 we literally had to hold her down, which in itself creates its own problems 🙄🙈 we tried distracting her with toys, songs, giving her my phone and playing baby shark on youtube over and over again. Some times it worked, sometimes it didnt. But she finally got out of it and happily has her nappy changed now.

But if you have any advice on how to have a nice relaxing bath time would be much appreciated 🤣🙈 little one starts screaming and climbing out as soon as her feet touch the water 😩

I had to start getting in the bath with my girl and having joint baths because mine started doing that. She’s fine again now to have them solo or with me x

is it possible that the nappy is irritating her? I think you can buy nappy pants, could you try those? She can step into them and you can pull them up? Maybe she’s ready to potty train?? 😅 x

yeh I think we will start potty training soon. I’ve started using pull up and actually it’s made such a difference 🙌🏻🙏🏻

awesome!!

forgot to suggest bath crayons they’re usually a good shout

Can someone pls help i keep making this post and nobody is responding

My boyfriend booked a trip for us to go to mexico for a week as my push present. I have severe anxiety leaving my 7 month old with my mom. I know she will be in good hands but she’s exclusively breast fed for the most part but accepts bottles just fine. i have all my pumping parts packed and will pump when baby normally eats but i don’t want baby to forget me or have latch issues when i return!! any mommas ever experience this?

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.

Rapid cool/ hot shot method

Sorry if this sound stupid but how are we doing the hot shot method?
Are we boiling the kettle and letting it cool a little before adding to hot flask? Then with the cool water do you boil the kettle and leave it to cool right down before putting into another flask?
My baby brain is fried trying to work out the easiest way!

Night time routine

Heya, my 3 week old daughter is currently exclusively breastfed and I’m not pumping. Can anyone recommend the best way to share the load with my partner? At the moment I’m doing all the feeds/burbs/settling and my partner is sleeping through which obviously isn’t sustainable, I’m trying to work out the best way to get him involved. Any advice very much appreciated!

i just want someone to talk to😔😔😔😔

when things get hard i have nothing not any support from my partner im convinced he doesn’t even love me anymore but thats another story
I have a 3 yo and a 2yo that are in bed sleeping only just now. I have a 1 yo that’s been sleeping from 8 o’clock to 10 o’clock. I just gave her her milk and she would’ve gone back to sleep if it wasn’t that
I lost her dummy earlier in the day when I went out
so now she won’t go back to sleep and she won’t accept any of the other dummy’s i have!😔😔and it’s 10 o’clock and I’m gonna be up until 3 o’clock with her and when she does want to go to sleep i won’t have any dummy to give her she will accept and she won’t sleep without it i just wanna cry 😔i have nobody to talk to and i feel so alone i get no support from anybody i’m so tired and i don’t feel well to top it off😔
