I didn’t teach my little boy and he started actual crawling last week after about 6 weeks of army crawling. They really are all so different.
My younger brother never even crawled, he went from bum shuffling to walking 😂

my son didn't stay crawling till 2 weeks before his first birthday, I've heard girls do things much faster and so far she has done everything much more sooner than my son which I'm over the moon with just when she's on the floor she rolls everywhere but when she's on her tummy she's rocking herself back and forth on all 4's and when she's reaching for something she's leaning onto her side almost standing onto her feet, so I'm trying to help her. Like just yesterday we were putting our TV remote Infront of her and she was pushing herself towards it with her feet and slowly reaching for it she's so close and I'm just trying to encourage her.

honestly I'm seeing so many babies in this group doing so many things, crawling even pulling up onto furniture. I know I shouldn't compare my baby to others but sometimes just sometimes I cant help it. I panic because my son did everything late

Get someone to help you. What we did was put her in all fours and I would move her legs one by one and the other person would pull her arms one by one, like the movement they do when crawling

Our little one randomly started crawling after we spent a weekend away, he was around older kids who were crawling around him, then the day we got home he was crawling haha

Help! First time mum -

I have a 4 month old and now all of a sudden when he’s been asleep for 1hr30/2hrs he will wake up screaming (high pitched) I’ve tried winding him sometimes that helps, I’ve tried bicycle legs & bringing his knees up but that doesn’t seem to help but he brings his knees up himself sometimes but nothing happens. I’ve noticed since the 4 month mark he has started to struggle passing wind downwards! Any tips?

Bath Time

Help! My baby is 3 and a half weeks old. Every bath she goes in quite happy but will only stay like this for a very few mins, if I try to clean her or move her we have tears and after a few mins the same. It's like she is scared. Our current baby bath is quite big should I try a different one? Looking for any suggestions as want her to enjoy bath time not be upset and I'm scared I'm going to make her hate it😢💗

Breastfeeding

Does it ever feel better? The actual feeding part of it is going really well and baby boy is growing so well. I’m struggling with how my boobs feel day to day - it’s really getting me down most days. The let downs make me feel awful and sounds silly but, I am also really missing not wearing a bra! 9 weeks postpartum and still getting fairly engorged, even with comfort pumping.

Any advice or just shared stories would help. I’m so torn between carrying on because I enjoy the feeding side of it or switching to formula.

Big nursing bras!

I’m looking for recommendations for good nursing bras for bigger breasted ladies!

I’m currently in a 38H which seems to be the biggest size done at M&S (UK based mama here) and it’s snug and not as supportive as I’d like. When I look online, they mainly seem to be sized S, M, L, XL etc rather than bra sizes.

Any recommendations please?

Strange question

Hello. I would identify myself as asexual but yes i am married and i have a child. But now that ive had my baby. I think its solidified that im done having sex. I feel bad as my partner keeps asking me but i just dont want to. Any advice on what i can do? Any other asexual moms out there? I guess this could be confusing but im not huge on being bound by a label. I have just always felt it represented me best since highschool.
