I carry my 5 month old in a baby carrier or sometimes just in my arms. But if he's asleep or calm in the carrier I can get some stuff done :)

Yep my girl basically lives in the carrier haha, it's the only way to manage getting anything done with my toddler at home aswell

I don't know how you guys carry yours around, you must have spines of steel x I put mine in the highchair in the kitchen so she can help me prep dinner or beanbag, bouncer playmat she's usually happy playing and watching me do things xx

I tried using the carrier once but felt pretty limited in what I could do so just wait until nap time or we have a rocker in the kitchen and a bouncer upstairs so he is usually where I can see him.

Mine goes in a baby chair and move it around if I change rooms. He sits, plays with toys, looks around.

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Baby names

My daughter‘s name is valentýna and I’m struggling to find other nice girl and boy names beginning with V I’ve got a few and I’ve got loads that aren’t beginning with V, but I feel like I wanna go for all vs and I also love girl and boys names that match so because my daughter’s name is valentýna I would love to call my son Valentino my husband does not agree 😃

Induction or c section?

As a last resort, would you rather be induced or have a planned c section?

Really not liking the thought of being induced from people’s experiences I’ve read!

Almost 37 weeks + told to do another growth scan

I just had my second to last doctor’s appointment this morning, and my OB told me she wants me to do another growth scan because my belly is measuring small. She says it’s probably just because I’m a smaller woman, but they like to be safe. It’s hard to hear though, since I just did one a couple months ago.

I did this with my firstborn around this time of pregnancy, so I do think I just carry smaller (even though I don’t feel like I look “small” at all). My first baby was 6lbs 15oz when she was born at 41 weeks + 2 days. I’m having this baby at 39 weeks on April 7. I hope she’s still at least 6lbs.

Anyone have any stories similar to this?
