I love co-sleeping with my LO.
Been doing it since he was 2 weeks old, he’s now 6 months old.
Just wanted to share. That’s all.

I love cosleeping as well.
I have been doing it since my little girl was four days old she is now five months old

I love it to haha I have with every kid

Guys- can you pls share some advice on how to do this safely? I'm very nervous as a first time mum- planned to try a cot/snuzpot but have to go with co sleeping as my baby cries uncontrollably unless he is on me (so being next to me) should hopefully work (fingers crossed)!

For my LO I block off all sides of the bed so he can’t roll off (normally shove pillows under the fitted sheet) he has his own blanket, I’m not one to move in my sleep I never was so the fear of rolling on him wasn’t a huge concern for me. However I would say my motherly instincts kick in when needed. My LO isn’t one to really move a lot either. Him and I are both side sleepers. It honestly just came natural to me. I didn’t want to co sleep because I was scared but due his reflux it was so much easier for me to grab him next to me Vs in that bedside cart.
DONT LAUGH but I used the pregnancy pillow for the first 2 months with him. He needed to be propped up while sleeping or he choked on his spit up. So I did the car seat for a week (per the pediatricians recommendation) and I felt horrible about it so then I got the idea of the pregnancy pillow. I rolled it up like a cinnamon roll and put him in the middle of it. Use to call him my little Cinnabon 😂

Any September 2025 babies crawling yet

My little one isn’t crawling yet but he loves tummy time

Did you know this was a thing?

Didn’t know this existed! I’m actually not breastfeeding 2nd time round (though wish I did) after a bad experience with my 1st baby. But this is something I 100% needed 1st time round.

How do you dry your 🐱?

Looking to settle a debate with husband, he is teaching our girls to dry themselves after they shower, i am teaching them to dry to a certain point on the inside but not between

Circumcision, please help

I know it can be a really sensitive topic, but I feel really underinformed about whether I should choose to circumcise or not if we end up having a boy.
For context: we are very non-religious, but I worry about the stigma of being non-circumcised when he would start to get interested in dating, navigating cleaning it and the risk of infection especially as he gets older and navigating potty training at daycare and stuff. I also worry about the increased risk of penile cancer. But then I also hate the thought of making my baby go through a major surgery unnecessarily and would prefer for them to make the choice when they are older if they choose to get circumcised.

How did you make your choice? Does anyone regret their choice?

no screen mums!!

are you absolutely 0 screens household? my boy is 6mo and me and my partner agreed no screens till 3yo, but I'm a sahm and showering is HARD when I'm alone, I've been thinking about recording myself singing the songs he likes and showing it to him for being able to shower.
What do you do?

How do I end this friendship

My best friend of 15 years and I are in similar stages of life and her behaviour has gotten increasingly erratic and triggering. I am about to have my first baby and she is struggling with postpartum from her second who was born last August. All the “normal” post partum depression symptoms I totally understand but she has also in my opinion made a lot of selfish choices recently.

She is constantly yelling and berating her husband and kids as well as flying off the handle at the tiniest things and it’s super triggering for me coming from a previous abusive relationship. She’s honestly being abusive to her family.

I feel like she always makes everything about herself and her reasoning has gotten soooo misconstrued. She acts only on her emotions and doesn’t care about anyone else’s. She never accepts any constructive criticism or advice even though she complains 24/7 about everything.

She says she hates being a mom and doesn’t want to be around her kids , hates her marriage, hates her job, and complains 24\7 and refuses to do anything to change. She also makes everything about herself including my baby shower we just had. She’s made rude comments to my spouse as well.

I don’t have many mom friends but at this point she is just not the type of person I want to be around because she is being so mean and wanting to bring everyone down with her. Also I am about to have my first baby and just want to focus on me.
