I bought these pouches at Costco hoping to give some to my 6 month old, only to see that they're for older kids, but there's no warnings on the box. Can I still give it to him?

I would suggest trying it yourself to assess the texture you know what consistency of food your baby can eat. X

Usually it's recommended when you start solids at 6 months to slowly introduce foods, one food at a time every 3 days in case there's an allergy you can quickly identify the cause. Then slowly move up to more complex foods with 2 flavors at once, then eventually 3. These have 3 so I'd probably hold off for now until baby is more established with eating solids.

Probably ok but depends how long youve been doing solids. At 6 months we were still testing allergies so make sure you've introduced all the flavors.

I would check how much sugar and other stuff is in them 🙂and if clean give only around 8 months 🙂

It’s perfectly fine. No different than putting all those things in a blender and feeding it to him.

Does that say low calorie or i am crazy?
I agree with above though if there is no added sugar, no honey, then it's safe to give them just maybe not like super ideal. Those who wean the blw way wouldn't give the texture thing a second thought x

@Mou I think it says "not a low calorie food" because it is fruit so there's a good bit of natural sugar

Avatar

@Anna👼👶👼👼 weird because fruit usually is fairly low calorie... in any case for babies the higher the calorie the better, hence full fat yoghurt over low etc

Yes u can. My oldest kid loved those when she was a baby💖

Thanks all, no sugars or honey added to these. But they do contain an added probiotic so that's kinda why I was wondering. They also contain spiraluna?

@Annie spiraling is a good thing I just don't know if for that little, never used for baby 🙂

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 🙂

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

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.

Pumping advise

FTM to a 2 week old! I’m breastfeeding and then giving one formula bottle last in the evening before bed. I want to start expressing milk to give me some breathing room and also allow my partner to be more involved in feeding. I’m finding the idea of introducing pumping into my day quite overwhelming though. I don’t want to take milk away from my baby by pumping if he needs it during the day when being breastfeed.

Can anyone advise how I start pumping and when to do it? Thank you!
