Word Count

Does anyone else absolutely adore the bones off your child/children but oh my gosh how does someone so small have so much to say πŸ˜‚πŸ« πŸ™ˆ

I actually counted this morning just for fun and he hit over 1200 words in an hour πŸ˜‚

I’m exhausted πŸ« πŸ˜‚ Where is the off button for a three year old?

It's interesting how different kids can be. I barely spoke at 3 years old but am a chatterbox now. Excited to see how my baby will be ❀️

my twin daughters started school this year. They are going to be 6 years old on the 18th. Omg they talk so much and tell me every detail about what happens at school. I told them don't be telling ppl at school our business. Once they said some kid threw a chair in class

I don't think my son has ever had a thought that he hasn't immediately spoken out loud πŸ˜†

I try very hard to be grateful because i know there are parents who never get to hear their child's voice, but I do feel like there has to be a happy middle ground somewhere. Like, bud, it's not even 7am, I am not awake enough to talk about why Pluto isn't a planet with you right now.

I finally understood the saying "take a breath" after listening to my daughter. I swear I don't know how she doesn't pass out sometimes!

It's a safety feature. "I like unicorns. I ate string cheese today... I'm going to jump off the table!!!" You'd think it's better when some of those thoughts go internal, but for now, it's still important to catch everything. πŸ˜…

Seriously! My son isn’t even one yet and he just goes on and on. Here and there he adds words like β€œbanana” or β€œdog” πŸ˜‚

Health Visitor Home Visit

Hii, could anyone explain what the health visitor does on their home visit?

Also if anyone had a home birth, what the midwife home risk assessment involves?

I’ve got 3 home visits coming up in the next two weeks (health visitor, midwives and doula) and it’s making me nervous for some reason. I think having 3 just feels like a lot and a bit invasive if that makes sense!

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.

Fighting naps

Does anybody else feel like they spend all day trying to get baby to nap? I get tempted to give up as he must not be that tired but he is too cranky to play or do anything else!

Any experience with different teats?

Hey Mamas

So my little girl is exclusively breastfed but she wont even take FRESHLY PUMP milk from the bottle. I had a whole 4oz that was going to waste and baby girl was just massanging her gums and smiling lol :/
Ive tried adding extra holes with a needle, the ol' switcheroo (BF first then switch ti bottle) but she's very keen and notices straight away.
Im currently using Nuby and Tommee silicone bottles, and I would like to try more softer, boob-like teats.

Id ideally like her to take a bottle so Dad can give me a REAL break yknow.

Has anyone had this same experience? Any teats one would recommend?
Thank you in advance!

How are we entertaining our babies

What toys does everyone have for their 7 month old?
Nothing is satisfying my little girl she's got blocks, rattles, playmats loads more. She would much rather hold my hands and walk all day but I cant physically do that and whenever I put her down to play she just wont, is this just a faze?
