Dropped phone on baby’s head…

I was nursing my baby at 3am and was reading on my phone to try to stay awake. I accidentally fell asleep and dropped my phone on their head 😭. They woke up and cried for a couple of minutes but after that I nursed them back to sleep no problem.

I think it fell around the ear/side of face area, maybe the temple. Should I be concerned? Baby is 10 months old. I feel so awful and guilty. I can’t believe I let that happen 😭.

Phone is an iPhone mini with otterbox, if that helps at all to know approx size and weight.

I feel like such an awful mother.

🤣 I've done this a couple times to my 7 month old, and she's done it to herself once. I feel bad too but.. it happens. And shes fine. I wouldn't worry about it too much.

Happened more than once over here, when my LO was much younger than yours🫣. Try not to feel bad, and I wouldn't worry as long as there is no sort of lump amd babybid acting normally

Babe should be fine we’ve all done it. I think it’s the shock of it that makes them cry more then pain/hurt. I’ve done it my little guy has also done it to himself and he’s only 6 months. Don’t bang yourself up about it. As long as their no bumps & everything seems fine babe; carry on.

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 🙂

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.

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.

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.
