Anyone else’s baby keep turning sideways in their crib?

My baby thrashes her legs around in her sleep which moves her sideways in her crib like this! I usually just turn her back but is there a way of preventing this? Anyone else have this issue?

Same! I’ve taken his arms out from the sleeping bag and he also started with his 4 months sleep regression 🫣

Our LO did this and we ended up using a blanket over her legs, so wrapping it
half under the mattress at the one side and at the bottom, leaving the one side untucked, then when we put her to bed we tuck that side in tightly. It stopped the leg thrashing / moving / waking herself up etc x

Amazing thanks guys! Yes I feel like she might roll soon, so will transition to an arms out sleeping bag. She’s 14 weeks today so not quite 4 months yet

oh god okay perhaps that’s it then… she did wake like 20 times last night…didn’t go longer than 54m asleep 😬

thanks 😰

My LO has been doing this she’s always been one to move her arms & legs a lot in her sleep but the last week or so I have to keep picking her up from the bottom of the crib and from being sideways, I use an arms out sleep bag but she still seems to be doing it! I’m trying her with a cellular blanket tonight 🤞🏼 xx

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. 🩵

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 🙂

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?

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.

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.

Postpartum

I’m only 3 days postpartum (FTM) and already have extremely bad anxiety. I’m crying every night, as I think of another night of no sleep. My baby will not settle in his cot, he cries every moment we put him down unless in his chair rocker. So me and my partner are having to alternate after 3/4 hours of being awake with him downstairs. I’m trying everything to get him to settle. It’s a load of overwhelming stress. I’m 23, I was desperate for a baby and now I have one and feel completely useless. I miss it just being me and my partner.
