Sleeping Position

My daughter has started sleeping in this position with her legs spread out and bent. Is this normal?

Until about 3 days ago, she slept like a starfish with her legs stretched out and straight, but has now started bending her knees. She’s 14 weeks old.

I’m worried that her hips are at a weird angle

Also, I know she’s right at the end of her crib. She likes to scoot closer to me in the night, no matter how many times I move her

Yes perfectly fine, my girl sleeps like that.

She is comfortable. Take her to a chiropractor for children if you are really worried.

That is absolutely 100% normal and the natural way for babies to sleep.

My step son is 4 and still sleeps like this ☺️.

My girls does this that’s how I know she’s in deep sleep 🤣

Absolutely normal, my little one loved to sleep like this until she was around 10months then she took to laying on her front with her bum in the air, face down! She still sleeps like that now at 17months xx

This is exactly like my baby boy- arms up, legs up & scooted all the way over to the side lol 😂

Yep 👍🏻 my son still sleeps like this sometimes and he’s 2.

Baby girl used to sleep like this and has now moved to the face down in the mattress and butt up 😭😭

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!

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?
