Doc a Tot and snuggle me

I just found out this product has been deemed unsafe for babies to sleep in. How ever my baby has been sleeping in one for about a month now. She has a flat head pillow in there that prevents her squishing her face into the sides. My spouse things she will be fine cause of the pillow especially cause we also have a video monitor/ owlet sock on her. I’m just curious here cause she has had no incidents with it but I don’t want one to occur. I. Don’t want any hate from using one cause I honestly didn’t know. I’m just looking for honest opinions (picture of her sleeping in it this morning and before you say anything I just found out this morning too )

There's no hate, it you didn't know then you didn't know. But now that you do know, look up AAP sleep guidelines and recommendations. Read into why this could be unsafe and make changes from there. I personally follow all of their guidelines as that is how I am most comfortable. Do what makes you the most comfortable and secure as a parent

My girl slept in the snuggle me for about the first month and some 😅 I knew it wasn’t technically safe but it was the only way she would sleep without me holding her, not even swaddling would help!

Eh idk how babies aren’t safe in them. We have a snuggle me and my son and daughter have both slept in it. Our bassinet is big so just laying them down in a hard big area wasn’t nice b vs they were used to being all warm and cozy. There’s no way for them to push their face up against it so I think it’s fine. Idk how it’s not safe. There might be some parents who have done crazy things with it. I’d say maybe try without and see how baby does but if babies sleep sucks then go back to it

we use a Vtech, it was 80 bucks and in my opinion works amazing!

what kind of nursing pillow is that

did y’all transition out of swaddles or have you not used them at all?

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.

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?

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.

When did you circumcise your baby?
If you DID NOT or DO NOT have a circumcised son DO NOT comment this post is not for you!

Did you wait a certain amount of time or have it done immediately?
Again respectfully, this is only for the parents who choose to do so.
opinions about how not necessary it is will not be appropriate for this post. Thank you in advance. 🩵
