Need help asap

Hey, mamas , so today I spent an hour with my baby in her CPE . It was our first day
I felt that the lady didn't like me , the one that was supposed to take care of my baby girl , I was anxious already, and her attitude made it worse.
I asked her if I can stay another hour with her tomorrow as I don't want her to feel she is left with strangers she said no, I said okay then I will let her for one hour each day for the next week and then build up to 2 , because I donn't want her to cry and feel abandoned all of a sudden, she said Don't tell you don't want her to cry she will cry ! I couldn't say anything.
After that, I noted the first day we met that my baby had an allergy to latex . When she was 7 months, she scratched her face , I put a bandate on it and it was latex her face started swelling and it became like a burning scar ,I took her to pharmacy because I didn't understand and they told me it's because of the latex.
I tell thus story to the administration, they said okay , I tell it to her a week ago she said okay , today she tells me , take her to the doctor because I need a doctors note proving it !!!!!
I told her it's not easy to find a doctor, we are still on the waiting list , and she tells me to take her to a private clinic, I told her it can coast at least 350 cad , she said we use latex to change their diapers, I told her but you do have other types of gloves and other types of bandate, she said yes but I need the doctors note!
I am not Canadian, I ve been here for just 3 years , I might be wrong and I really have to get a doctors note, but I really want to make sure I am not making ideas in my mind because I am anxious.
Please, if you have insight, let me know.

You need to remove her from that place and find another one asap.

Okay I will try to find another place tomorrow, and i will talk to the administration about it in the meantime.
I won't let her stay there for more than an hour per day

Frankly, I couldn't sleep all night, I might not even take her to spend one hour ! Even if I risk to lose s place in the cpe 😥

I agree with everyone here, trust your mom gut and take her somewhere else because these people sound horrible. And that lady should not be caring for children to begin with. See if you can go somewhere else because this is unacceptable.

I would definitely not bring her back there. Hope you find her a nicer place with nicer staff 🙏

I am really thankful to you ladies , you empowered me . Today, I had a huge fight with my husband because I refused to take her, but I am standing my ground.
Thank you so much I really needed canadian people to tell me what to do , I know no one here and this app has been a blessing 💖
I won't take her back for sure ! Thank you mamas

Take her out of there. If the workers are unable to work with you and understand your needs (mom knows best), then she shouldn’t be there.

Sorry to hear this happened to you. I'm on a waitlist for a few CPE and want to make sure this one is not want of them. Which part of the city is it located ?

its stand for Centre de la Petite Enfance, it’s the childcare centrr she is refering to.

Montreal macadam

I didn't take her back,I stood my ground, now we go to another place, CPE la fontaine, been going there for 2 weeks , I stay with her almost the entire time and leave her just for 20 minutes,she cries and I go straight back
I will take it gradually
I will not let her suffer, they play with kids , hug them ,sing to them ,do activities with them .
Thank you ladies for helping,for making me stronger

I am almost 3 weeks postpartum and still bleeding. Can I use tampons yet?

I am so sick of using pads. It’s been almost 3 weeks and I am still bleeding. Can I use tampons yet?

Baby cutlery

Out of curiosity.
If we have to sterilise baby bottles, dummy’s ect.
Do we also sterilise baby cutlery?

Moving while asleep

My 12 week old has been sleeping through the night (8 hours) for the last week and a half and since the 3rd or 4th night he's been wriggling his way to the other end of his crib to the point where his head is cocked to the side
He seems fine but it looks uncomfortable and ive always been told he needs to have his feet touching the bottom of his bed and if I move him back he wakes up.
Has anyone else experienced this? Did you leave it? Are there any potential issues if I do leave it?

5 am wake up🫩🥱

My 3 year old … lately has been waking at 5am 😭
I’m exhausted!

He winds down half an hour before bed - we get ready for bed, each of us read a book each, kisses and cuddles, a drink of water and up to bed. He goes down easy, I sit for 2 minutes literally and he’ll self sooth himself to sleep by 7:30pm he’s out! But the past 3 days he’s been waking and coming into my bed at 5am … me thinking he’ll go sleep he’ll just toss and turn and wants to go down…

Anyone in the same boat?

Help

Hi mamas! Has anyone dealt with their baby’s hair clumping at the back of their head? I tried baby oil to loosen it but no luck so far. Any advice?

Blood in baby’s poo

Ladies, I’ve just changed my baby and noticed some blood on his poo and on the diaper. The poo was quite soft, not pebbly and he wasnt straining or anything like that. Anyone had anything like this before? What is it? Shall i call the GP?
