Moods

My baby hasn’t been himself. He hasn’t been smiling much, talking much, not wanting to roll or play. He’s been very whiny and unhappy. And so spacey. He’s always been so smiley and active and talking non-stop. He’s not teething and he’s not sick. He turned 6 months on the 15th. What’s going on with my once happy baby. :(

How long has it been going on for ? Has he recently gotten his shots? And he could be teething even though no teeth have erupted yet ? Could also be sleep regression if there have been changes in sleep he could also be cranky

yes he just got his shots yesterday but he has been like this for almost 2 weeks. Might be teething but no swollen gums or teeth emergence. He’s like a totally different baby. It sucks :(

babies go through phases , if he isn't sick I wouldn't worry too much just try to engage as much as possible.but definitely could be early stages of teething.however if you don't see a change over the next few weeks then just keep notes of it and maybe contact his doctor to discuss it .

Sleep regression girl. My daughter does it each time she’s about to turn a new month 😂

He might be going through a developmental leap

Hi I know this is an older post but did you get to the bottom of 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!

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 🙂

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.

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
