Washing baby clothes separately

Are you still washing your baby’s clothes separately to yours and your partners/rest of the family? I am and baby is 5.5m just wondering if I should start washing together or not.

I've never washed my babies clothes separately. With all 3 kids.

I’ve never washed separately - too much washing to get through as it is!

I’ve never washed separately I just changed our washing powder to the fairy non bio stuff

There’s only me and her so I do it together

Never ever washed babies clothes separately x

I’ve never washed separately, didn’t even know it was a thing!

I do, but my husbands a mechanic and I’ve got a horse so I tend to wash his work stuff and my horse clothes separately but don’t worry too much about separating our normal clothes for LOs

Have never washed separately . But I do use non bio and sensitive stuff for all washing

Also never washed them separately yo ours

Never done them seperate just changed to fairy non bio for a while but back to usual detergent now cause he seems fine with it! Xx

I never knew that was a thing..? 🤷‍♀️

Wash together

I’ve always shoved all our clothes in together - me, my son and daughter!

I used to wash clothes separately but it got to the point we got really far behind on our washing that we decided we had to wash them together with ours.

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
