3 month bedtime routine

What are or have everyone done at 3 months with a bedtime routine..
we think my little one may be going through a sleep regression at the moment, he doesn’t sleep very well at night.

I’ve always tried from about 7 to close the blinds and put a dim light on start bath time, changing and feed to get him to settle to sleep, however sometimes this isn’t until between 8-9.

When do you start putting them in the crib (with a camera of course) as I tend to just hold him until I go to bed and then do a feed etc then before he goes in his crib.

I feel completely clueless!

3 months baby girl here. For the past 5 weeks, she has gone to bed around 9.30pm, sleeping through until 6.30/7 am. The last few nights, she occasionally woke up around 1/1.30 am for a feed. Not every night, though. 🤷🏻‍♀️

that’s sounds great! He used to have a feed at around 11 then sleep till 3/4 and then get up at 7ish but at the moment he’s getting up at around 1 and not properly settling again unless I’m holding him

I think it could be a growth spur. My girl used to do last feed around 11pm, then 1.30/2am then 3.30 and then 6.30. Now she woke 3 nights (not in a row, though) around 1.30 am 🤷🏻‍♀️

Our little babe is 11 weeks. She goes to sleep around 10/10:30 and wakes up around 5:30/6:00. Occasionally, she will wake up around 3:30 and will nurse for about 30 minutes

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?
