Crawling in Crib

My girl finally got good at crawling right when I finally decided to start sleep training. Now she crawls around her crib crying because she keeps bumping her head on the walls. This makes her angry, and causes her to not sleep. She just sits there screaming the entire time I’m out because she’s mad at me for leaving, and now she’s also scared to move.

Any tips?😅

Ohhh my god! ❤️ she’s adorable!!!

I’m sorry I don’t have any suggestion. I’m just an admirer of this cutie.

A pack and play has the soft netting but if she's able to roll back and forth I would say crib bumpers but I know now everyone likes those

thank you!(: it says, “E is for Eily”. (Eily rhymes with Miley) I got it on Etsy!

that sounds like a really good idea, but my girl hates her pack n play :/

My baby has been in a crib for a while and has been fine. Until the 8 month sleep regression and she started to learn to pull herself up to stand. She would stand and then cry cause she can’t sit back down. I read some things about it and learned that playing with baby in the crib (with whatever new milestone they keep trying to do - for us standing and for you crawling) to help them practice it helps. It makes the new thing not feel so exciting anymore.

It helped us a ton and she’s back to sleeping well. Don’t do it during naps or bed times. Maybe a little when they first wake up or a few minutes here and there through the day. Also just keep practicing the new skill outside of the crib. Once she masters it, she won’t bump herself anymore and it won’t be a new things she keeps wanting to try.

Hope it helps!

thank you!! I feel like I knew that was the simple answer all along and just needed someone to actually recommended it😵‍💫

Aww you have a cute red head too! 😍

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!

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 🙂

Car seat crying

My 6 month old PANICS the second I put him in a car seat and screams, cries, chokes and recently even projectile vomited on a 14 minute drive. It’s gotten to the point I don’t even bring him out unless it’s to a doctors appointment. I’m a stay at home mom with no family in my state and it has been very isolating. We’ve tried 3 different car seats with no improvement. Has anyone had a baby who hated the car seat? Any advice? This started at 3 months. I will add it does seem worse when he’s tired. He does cry on every trip though. He only contact naps and co sleeps so he reaches for me and will not sleep in the car seat.

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.

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.

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?
