My little girl is 3 years old and for about 4 months now it's been taking her an hour and a half to go to sleep, we do the usual books and nursery rhymes and no matter what time I put her to sleep it still takes her ages. I try and put her down earlier in case she's overtired and that doesn't work, if I put her down later then that'll take longer for her to go to sleep. I'm getting very stressed about it and then she gets stressed. Anyone got any suggestions on what else I can do with her.

No advice but just to say you’re not alone. Bed time with mine used to be a dream, I loved that time. Now it’s a nightmare and has been for the last 6 months x
How many times a month in the first year postpartum do you and your husband have sex? (Trying to figure out what the normal range is for partners with a baby!)

My three month old cries before every nap. He’s fine in the night when fed to sleep, but before every single day nap there is 5-25 minutes of crying. We follow wake windows as best we can but it doesn’t seem to matter whether he’s awake one hour or three hours!
Did anyone else have this, and has come out the other side?

Some of my daughter's clothes have become so stained and most of these stains have happened while she's been at nursery.
I am struggling so much to get the stains out!
I feel like if I send her in stained clothes I'll be judged or looked at weirdly like I can't afford to clean her clothes or something?
What do you do with stained clothes?
Does anyone have tips for stain removal? Red/orange food (I know sunlight but we're going into winter where it's scarce). Brown knee stains? Just like dirt stains? And yellow curry stains 😣 help me please

If your partner didn’t force you to go to bed at a certain time, but got annoyed if you went to bed before he was ready or wanted to stay down for longer when he wants to go to bed, would that be considered controlling? Seeing as there’s no forcing involved just getting annoyed by it?

This is my 4 year olds bedroom.
Can anyone recommend a bed that would fit in the room but not take all her space ?
She’s 109cm tall not sure if that makes any difference 👀.
She does not have 2 tvs the video was taken whilst re organising😂

Hey! I’m really interested to hear people’s thoughts/experiences with swaddling for newborns? I’ve heard it’s supposed to be great to keep them relaxed etc but also was told yesterday it’s not a method that they use anymore which is completely new to me!! Any thoughts?
