Duvet & pillow

Has anyone introduced a duvet and pillow to their toddlers yet? I'm not sure whether to get the next size sleepbags or start to introduce a duvet.

We’ve done sleep bags again as she moves too much for duvet but have a few friends that have tried. When I do try we will get a coverless duvet as I’ve seen a video on Tik tok where someone’s toddler got themselves inside the cover between buttons and was stuck!

@Becca this is what is worrying me about a duvet! Will definitely look into coverless x

Yeah I think it is a safe option, I see dunelm do some! I’ll probably try after summer now as these bags will see her through till it’s hot then will try a duvet after.
My friend who used one said her little girl just ended up laying on top of it! X

We’ve got a toddler pillow as he uses our pillow when he cosleeps and he loves it and is much less fidgety. Still use a sleep bag though.

My 15 month old had a duck feathers pillow and blankets my 9 week old just has blankets

We tried a blanket and he just kicks it off so we’re going stick with sleep bags for a bit longer x

Id like to move over to duvet as I don't really want to keep buying sleeping bags, but she moves around so much all around the cot I really have no idea how to make it work practically.
Im lucky she's a good sleeper and don't want to jeopardise that so just gunna stick with bags for the time being and hope she grows out moving around 🤷

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!

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.

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.

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?
