Is anyone else getting angry at random things (but holding it in?). MIL is here and she's been great but like I hate when the bottles don't match the bottom and top (I have anti colic mam bottles). I also am tired of answering questions of when he last fed, what's for dinner, and being asked when I'm doing certain house projects.

She's also made it easy for my husband to disappear all day and not help. She's here until May. 😭

On top of all that baby was diagnosed with Laryngomalacia and start of bronchiolitis so we have to suction his nose every feed (whether I'm home or not) and she's scared to do it, I go back to work in 2 weeks.

Ugh. I'm sorry for you. That's rough. And I can commiserate with the disappearing husband. Mine can't wait till my sister visits again for the same reason. She's convinced he leaves everything to me...I told her it's just cause she's here 🤦🏻

And don't hold your anger in. Mine usually results in me crying, but that's better than having it explode when least convenient. It's ok to be angry, it's what you do with that emotion that makes it good or bad.

@Sara I'm also very Type A & a if I haven't said anything that means I haven't thought about so do it yourself kind of person. 😅😅 so the only household project i have thought of is cleaning up my office before I go back to work and some minor things in the nursery. Which means everything else literally, not important.

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.

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 🙂

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.

Can someone pls help i keep making this post and nobody is responding

My boyfriend booked a trip for us to go to mexico for a week as my push present. I have severe anxiety leaving my 7 month old with my mom. I know she will be in good hands but she’s exclusively breast fed for the most part but accepts bottles just fine. i have all my pumping parts packed and will pump when baby normally eats but i don’t want baby to forget me or have latch issues when i return!! any mommas ever experience this?
