Double pram or no double pram?? 🫣

I am due my 2nd baby in June and my daughter will be 2 years 3 months when he arrives. Would people recommend a double pram at this age? I have no idea what to do for the best!

Do I get a single pram with a buggy board?
Do I get a double pram for the 3 days per week I will have her (she will be in childcare the rest of the week) but then it will annoy me using a double pram most days when I don’t have her and only have my son… 🤣
If a double pram is recommended, do you have any good recommendations?

My daughter also doesn’t nap anymore and is in a phase where she wants to walk everywhere but I know this will probably change and if she’s tired of her legs ache she will want to rest them if we’re out and about …

Help please mummies 🙏🏽😊

My boy will be approaching 2 years and 4 months when baby is due in June. Im thinking to carry baby in a carrier and let my boy sit in the pushchair as I drive and I don’t go out much. Double pushchair when he’s at nursery will be so annoying so I’m going to use the one we have now for both of them. If my husbands with me then my boy can ride the stroller and baby take the pushchair.

Maybe buy a secondhand pushchair if you consider it, just to save money as you may not use it all the time. If little miss wants to walk, then more reason to get a board

I was debating the same however I know the second I buy a double my son (2 years 9 months) won't want to go into it. I'm looking into a buggy board with a seat on that way we can stand/sit and won't be too tired/slow when we're walking into town etc.

My boy will be 21 months when my second arrives. We’re going to keep our single pram and then look for a double out and about so on walks if he gets tired it’s handy and can be used out and about if needed. Xxx

I have double pram, my all kids are 2y apart. They sometimes have a nap in the pram 😊 and I have where to put stuff 😁 I have bugaboo donkey double pram that you can convert to single, It's amazing, best purchase we ever made 🥰

I was thinking the same, although my little girl will be 3 when little one arrives. I’m just going to try with buggy board and carrying baby in a carrier as it’ll be limited when I’m out with them both on my own as my daughter goes to nursery in the week. Was tempted by the bugaboo donkey mono, as I’ve got the fox but will see how we go.

I’m due in June and my daughter will be 23 months, we went for a bugaboo donkey 5! I love it! Soo happy with it. Had a mamas&papas ocarro before and I didn’t like it. 🌟

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!

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.

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 🙂

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?
