Does your baby sleep in a different room?
Do you visit the room for their every cry?

Heck no I would die. My baby sleeps in a bassinet right next to my bed IF she’s not in the bed with me

And yes I pick her up every cry and snuggle and feed her back to sleep. It’s my favorite thing.

Mine used to sleep in her room and I got much better sleep but lately she wakes up right after I put her down anywhere even in her bassinet in our room 😭 I used to only wake up when she would cry to eat and I’m hoping that routine comes back

I’m changing from the bedside bassinet to the crib just depends on the night but if he’s in his crib I’m less inclined to get up for every little fuss and noise he makes. Sometimes he falls right back to sleep.

Just putting this out there, AAP recommends room sharing until at least six months to reduce possibility of SIDS

Baby will be in a next to me until she is 6 months that’s what’s recommended for our health visitor x

Like others have said we’re waiting until the recommended 6 months, room sharing and she’s in her bassinet until then.

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!

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.

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 🙂

Naps

How is everyone doing for naps?

Little one is 9 months old and will have 2 half hour naps and one solid 1 hour - 2 hour nap a day

Then settles for night around 9pm. Wakes for a feed around 3:30 then sleeps until 6-7

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.

Pumping advise

FTM to a 2 week old! I’m breastfeeding and then giving one formula bottle last in the evening before bed. I want to start expressing milk to give me some breathing room and also allow my partner to be more involved in feeding. I’m finding the idea of introducing pumping into my day quite overwhelming though. I don’t want to take milk away from my baby by pumping if he needs it during the day when being breastfeed.

Can anyone advise how I start pumping and when to do it? Thank you!
