Diaper size

Hey Mamas,
My toddler is 17 months now. He's on the smaller side coz, so are we. Right now, he uses Pampers Cruisers 360 size 7. Any suggestions on what to use after this? I am confused!

I started using pull ups since my son was 12 months! I sometimes mixed them up! Pull ups and size 5/6

I started to introduce the potty last week.

smaller side but in a size 7??? 😭 my baby will be 18 months next week and she’s still in size 3 💀💀💀 but i suggest that you just start potty training cuz isn’t size 7 the last size before pull ups?

😂 it doesn’t have to be you can choose to buy pull ups at any stage you feel your kids can wear it! For my first kids I never made it to size 7 once I felt she can start potty training, I started buying pull ups! For my son he wears pull ups and size 5 Huggies diapers! He is 17 months and I did not start potty training yet since he wasn’t walking yet now he started walking! Once he gets full balance! I will start potty training!

i’m really just commenting on the fact that they said their baby is on the smaller side but they’re in size 7 diapers which is intended for 41 pounds+

meanwhile my baby is only 18 pounds 🥲🤣

I understand

My 17 month old is 27 lbs & was in a size 7 LUVS. Thats the largest size they go up to, so I wondered the same.
But if baby isn’t ready to be potty trained & you’d like to continue wearing diapers, go with the Rascal & Friends brand!
He fits a size 5 in those perfectly! & they have larger sizes as well. It just all depends on the brand, I learned.
Hope this helps!

mine too 😆

I was just about to say the same thing! My daughter will be 18 months on the 31st and she’s in a size 3 also! I bought size 4 once and they swim on her!

Size 7 is not small lol. My son is 17 months and 22lb 4 oz he is in size 4 during the day and size 5 night time diper with one of the extra pad things at night

My son is 17 months and he’s a size 3 😂 he’s 20 lbs. just a tiny little guy

Diaper sizes all depends on the brand. They’re not all the same.

@Nia my baby weighs just 20 lbs. But the coverage on the back is better with size 7. Yes from front it looks a lil big but I think it's better coverage for Poops. Pampers Cruisers 360 are pull ups actually! I am trying to potty train him but he's not ready yet. So, going easy with it!

@Gabrielle same. My baby is 17 months and 20 lbs as well... I ise Pampers Cruisers 360 size 7 solely for the back coverage being better n less blowouts!

@Ashley my baby is 17 months 20Lbs... I use Pampers Cruisers 360 size 7 for better back coverage n lesser blowouts. Yes they might look bigger on him, but he's comfortable n no red marks...

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.

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

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 🙂

Pumping advise

FTM to a 2 week old! I’m breastfeeding and then giving one formula bottle last in the evening before bed. I want to start expressing milk to give me some breathing room and also allow my partner to be more involved in feeding. I’m finding the idea of introducing pumping into my day quite overwhelming though. I don’t want to take milk away from my baby by pumping if he needs it during the day when being breastfeed.

Can anyone advise how I start pumping and when to do it? Thank you!

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.
