Tummy time and milk spit-up

Hi,

I’m wondering how/when do you do tummy time with your baby to minimize spit ups.
My LO is 4 months and everytime we do tummy time, he spits up different milk amounts. He’s a happy spitter so he doesn’t really mind it.
We burp and hold him upright for 20 minutes after every feed to try and minimize the amount of spit-up but it’s still happening.
Any other ideas? A different position maybe?

We found my little girl did this so we did play time first then her bottle and she doesn't spit up and enjoys it so much more :) x

We had the same issue, we now wait at least 50 mins before tummy time and he no longer spits up ❣️

Same happens with my 4 month old. I even wait 1 hour and do tummy time as soon as I put him on his tummy spits up milk and just cries

Our lb is the same! We just try to do some tummy time before bottles briefly and then again maybe 45 minutes - an hour after otherwise he just just throwing up 🫠

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
