I think that’s too early to start applying stuff to it

when would I be able to start putting it in her hair?

I’ve been applying olive oil to my babies whole body since he was 2 weeks old. His hair has grown so much and it’s so thick.

lol honestly idk , I’m curious myself as to when to actually start cause my girl has a head full of hair but she’s 6 weeks and so far I haven’t done anything to it than use baby shampoo to wash it but in my opinion I think 3 weeks is a little early.

I use organic coconut oil about every other day and I started at 4 weeks to prevent dry scalp and cradle cap. My pediatrician said it was okay but of course ask yours. I do live in a colder state so it’s more drying to the scalp.

My baby boy has a head full of hair at 8 weeks. I got the sheamoisture baby leave in conditioner and have silk pillowcases in his bassinet and lounger where he spends the most time. I am also using the tubby todd cradle cap treatment twice a week

Ms Rachel ??

How many of you are putting ms Rachel on??? I’ve just introduced it to my 8 month old and it’s like sorcery. I feel so guilty putting it on because LO don’t take his eyes off the screen, but it’s the only way I’m getting 20/30 minutes during Velcro baby stage. I’ll put it on twice a day for up to 30 mins at a time, the rest of the time we’re out the house, playing with toys or he’s with me doing jobs around the house. Should I even feel guilty?😩

Leaky nappy advice

We use mamia nappies and have had no issue until now. We are using size 3 but she is leaking through them every night as she sleeps through the night. We’ve tried 4+ for night but they are still too big. Does anyone have any advice or any other brand that might hold more in a size 3?

Thoughts on this pram?

I’m 18 weeks pregnant and thinking of prams to get my baby. I saw this on Amazon and it seems affordable, plus the reviews are very positive about the quality of the product. Are there any mamas in the group that got this specific model? If so, how did you find it?

Toddler tippy toeing

My daughter is two been tippy toeing ever since shes learned how to walk. Not sure if it’s a phase or if it’s autism. If it helps shes also a really active baby. Has anyone experienced this with their toddler?

TBH

To be honest- I’m starting to hate that my husband gets to sleep peacefully , getting virtually uninterrupted sleep, while I’m being woken up every other moment by our 5 month old 🙃 I’m so so tired, my body hurts, and I have a little cold that won’t go away. My baby sleeps next to me and feeds on demand (it’s my fault, I know). I tried to regulate him without the boob, tonight, and he started crying. My husband tried to soothe him for less than a minute, but I took him back when I saw my husband was getting irritated by him crying. I ended up feeding him until he was mostly asleep, now he’s sleeping on my chest. I’m awake, I have to use the bathroom, and forgot to take my contacts out, and put nursing pads in, but I’m stuck. Meanwhile, my husband went back to sleep immediately 😮‍💨😤 how do people do this long term? 😩
