Anyone else’s baby have thick bushy eyebrows/monobrow?

Night sound silly but bear with me…
My little girl was born with dark eyebrows which have gradually got bushier and turning into a monobrow. I don’t mind I think it’s cute, but I ended up googling it because both me and her dad were fair with practically no eyebrows as babies so have always wondered where she got this from. Anyway… Google kept coming up with genetic disorders and all sorts of issues 🙈 and now I’m just after some reassurance that babies can have thick bushy eyebrows even if their parents don’t, and grow up just fine.

This is completely normal. She'll grow into them

It can be normal… Can you get genetic testing for her at all though?..

My niece did! Her hair was fully blond but her eyebrows were the same as your baby. She’s absolutely fine though

no the doctor just told me to stay off Google!

As soon as I got a notification and read your heading straight away thought of that same genetic disorder (sanfilipo syndrome) 😭 I would definitely get genetic testing to be safe because early intervention is best BUT that's just me being my over paranoid self, I'm sure it's fine ♥️

I didn’t want to say it but that’s exactly what I thought. I too would get the genetic testing. Hope all is okay 🫶🏻

no, shes nearly 2 and has a proper monobrow now, she also has dark hair on her back and shoulders. But absolutely no symptoms of any genetic disorders, no recurrent illnesses or issues, meeting her milestones on time or early.
I went to the doctor about the hairiness and managed to get referred to a paediatrician and he assured me some kids are just hairy, including their eyebrows, it’s not always linked with disorders. Shes just a healthy little girl with a lot of hair! Try not to worry chances are your daughter is fine too

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.

Can someone pls help i keep making this post and nobody is responding

My boyfriend booked a trip for us to go to mexico for a week as my push present. I have severe anxiety leaving my 7 month old with my mom. I know she will be in good hands but she’s exclusively breast fed for the most part but accepts bottles just fine. i have all my pumping parts packed and will pump when baby normally eats but i don’t want baby to forget me or have latch issues when i return!! any mommas ever experience this?

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.

When did you circumcise your baby?
If you DID NOT or DO NOT have a circumcised son DO NOT comment this post is not for you!

Did you wait a certain amount of time or have it done immediately?
Again respectfully, this is only for the parents who choose to do so.
opinions about how not necessary it is will not be appropriate for this post. Thank you in advance. 🩵
