Mine is about to be five months on the 21st and he is drinking 6 ounces each bottle and he drinks between like 4 to 5 but he is also eating baby pureed food

thank you! Did you know to give 6 oz because he would whine after a bottle less than that? I’m having trouble deciphering my daughter’s feeding cues right now except for crying because she’s all about her fingers at the moment, whether it’s exploring her hands or teething.

Yes, so before I was giving him 4 to 5 ounces and he would like whine and like he would still like go towards his fingers like if he was actually hungry and so I would give him like one or 2 ounces extra and he’ll be more calm

thank you !

No problem glad I can help

My little one is 4 months drinking 32-36oz a day
But mostly 36oz lol he’s a hungry little guy. Has 5-6 bottles with 5-6oz.

Our little one is drinking on average 5-6oz and will have 5-6 bottles in 24 hrs

Thank you ladies. I appreciate you!

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!

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.
