if ur child has a unibrow SHAVE IT!! 🪒

i don’t understand why people let their children walk around like that unless not removing hair is for religious reasons.

Wow… this is so uncalled for… you have no right to judge a child this way or their parents!!

WTF

Absolutely not.

...you could just teach your child not to make fun of people for how they look or not to judge someone for the way they look. Unless you're an asshole raising little assholes. 🤷🏾‍♀️

If my kid had a unibrow I wouldn't shave it because you said I should. I'd wait until they were uncomfortable with it and then wax it together if that's what they needed. But if they never wanted to, that'd be okay.

Can I please ask what u have against unibrows? This sounds like a personal u problem. My husband has a unibrow and my son inherited that & im not abt to shave it off him to make ppl like feel comfortable. What is wrong with u.

YES !!!! Even if they don't say it. They probably feel bad about it or they get teased about it

Source: i had a unibrow AND a tiny stasche to go with it. I reprecent all the kids that suffered because of fácial hair and I'm here to tell you SHAVE IT hace mercy

same! I used to get teased about my mustache. Wish my mom shaved it off lol.

I would say pluck or wax like sugar waxing though both hurt but it'll be tiny only if they 5 and up

I can’t even handle the pain as an adult, there’s no way I’ll make my child go through that. Why make them go through pain just for body hair. A little razor won’t hurt for temporary removal

Let's see how perfect you are anonymous 😂 picking on children because of natural body hair.

If my kid was older and asked for it to be removed that's one thing, and I'd do what would make her feel better. But as a part indian mama with a half mexican baby we're just fuzzy girls, her unibrow and stache isn't going anywhere anytime soon. Facial hair is typical thing amongst ethnic ethnic women so it's not that deep. I get waxed occasionally for events or whatever but that's for cosmetic reasons not cause I'm ashamed and I want my kiddo to feel just as comfortable.

I have a unibrow and used to wax it and now I don't bother because I realised it wasn't bothering me it was purely for other people and if it doesn't bother me why should I?

It depends on the age for me personally

No. Instead I would be teaching my children not to make fun of the physical features of others.

Imagine you post here a photo of yourself and we all start giving advice on what you should change because we don't like it.

Come out of incognito then be judgemental. Maybe because our kids aren’t our fashion accessory? Maybe because loving parents teach them to love themselves and not bully them into thinking how they look is wrong?

If the kid asks and wants it shaved, then yeah.

Agree with Raven 100% people who want to control CHILDREN'S body hair are weird af. 🤔 Now if my child wants body hair removed then that's a different story but to just go up to them and be like "you got a uni or your legs are too hairy, leme take care of that" is teaching them horrible things and going to make them insecure about that for the rest of their lives and turn in to people like... well, you. 🤣

such an interesting mix of answers. thanks for sharing ladies!

Weird to apply toxic societal beauty standards to a child

Once again we see an adults vanity and insecurities projected onto innocent children 🙄

My youngest has a unibrown thanks to my genes lol. But I haven't touched it at all. And he doesn't get picked on either. As he gets older and feels like he needs to maintain it, then I'll leave it up to him

My mom let me walk around w my stash n unibrow when I was a kid n I still do to this day. Fuck it. Y’all care too much, it’s hair. Men have it🤷‍♀️

Hour night wakes and 5am get up

Can anyone shed some light as to why on earth my child doesn’t want to sleep??? My eyeballs are bleeding!!

Never been a good sleeper, but the problems always changing. He’s nearly 9 months old.

Beginning of the month he dropped to 2 naps. We could put him to bed at 7pm and he’d get up for the day at 6am, with multiple wake ups every 2/3 hours.

Now we put him down at 7pm, he can do a good 4/5 hour stretch, but come 1/2am he’s up every hour then getting up for the day at 5am. This then completely messes up the day because I can’t keep him awake long enough to even get to 7pm, let alone later.

He has 2 naps, roughly about 1hr10 each but it changed based on when he wakes and trying to get him to a reasonable bed time.

What could be the reason for this? 6am is fine, but 5am is not 😩😩

Help! First time mum -

I have a 4 month old and now all of a sudden when he’s been asleep for 1hr30/2hrs he will wake up screaming (high pitched) I’ve tried winding him sometimes that helps, I’ve tried bicycle legs & bringing his knees up but that doesn’t seem to help but he brings his knees up himself sometimes but nothing happens. I’ve noticed since the 4 month mark he has started to struggle passing wind downwards! Any tips?

Don’t want to leave my first born😭😭😭

Anyone else extremely sad and anxious to leave their first born😭

He’s 2 and we have never not put him to bed or be here for when he wakes up😭

I’m so sad and anxious about leaving him

Help meeee

!!All advice welcome!! My 5 month old (nearly 6mo) is just not sleeping . Not for naps and not at night . She can’t connect her cycles . We started sleep regression at 3 months but in like how is this nearly been going on for a further 3 months . Like surely not . She has 10 min naps in crib ( which take so much effort ) and maybe 20/30 min naps in my arms/pushchair . She wakes minimum every hour at night with guaranteed false start 20 mins in . I combo feed. I breastfeed her until almost asleep then place her in the next to me crib give her the pacifier and put my hand on her cheek/face for 20 seconds and she drifts off . It’s not really getting her to sleep that’s the issue it’s she just won’t stay asleep . She doesn’t even need to feed much at night usually 1-2 breastfeeds . The rest is comfort wakes needing her pacifier or my hand on her cheek . I’ve looked into sleep associations and independent sleep and I broke the feed to sleep association and rocking and do bedside comforting instead for most wakes which has now lead to my hand being a sleep association on her face . I’m just so exhausted my husband is working mon-fri 9-9 and it’s just me . I haven’t had more than 4 hours in a row since her birth . I can’t get anything done during the day . She is so clingy and cries if I leave room /put her down etc. I love her so much but we both need rest . If anyone has any tips or a routine that could help PLEASE tell me I’ll try anything 🥲❤️❤️

Feeds

How many times a night are your little ones getting up? My daughter is every 90-110 minutes. I am absolutely exhausted and don’t know how much more I can cope

Sleep

My baby is now 8 months and we have a sleep problem.. he refused to sleep during the day , I need to rock him for about 40min then have break and try again even though he's clearly tired , sometimes he doesn't have the last nap because it is impossible to put him down. For the last few nights he wakes up every hour with cry and most of the day looks tired. I was at the GP and everything seems fine. Don't know what to do anymore. Does anyone have the same issue? How to deal with it?
