Prep question

Hi! Quick question, I’m starting to
combo feed using Kendamil and have a safety question about prep. I am making a batch of formula to keep in the fridge for the day. I boil the water, let it cool, then mix what I need. I cool it a bit, then throw the pitcher in the fridge. Is it still safe to reheat individual bottles later using a bottle warmer? I am worried that since it was already warm once that this isn’t safe. Any recommendations anyone has on prep are welcome, I have definitely overthought this entire thing.

I just used to make up all my bottled as normal and fridge them for 24 hours, as long as baby hasn't had the teat in their mouth it's fine :) x

Yeah, so we make and prep bottles instead of doing one batch. We usually only prep so many bottles as should only be kept in fridge for 24 hrs. And we reheat using bottle warmer. Is very useful during night (still waking up 2x) but also when I was very ill and was struggling looking after little one when husband was working.

Wdy think of this for a toddler to learn word construction?

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.

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 🙂

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.

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.
