Vaccinations

Hey ladies ! I’m neither pro vax nor anti vax, but I was reading a lot about autism and super worried about my baby. Definitely won’t try any new vaccines on my baby. But is there a safe way to vaccinate with only some necessary vaccines? That has been on market for a long time? Any ideas are appreciated. I was thinking maybe to wait until she’s 2 and then slowly start vaccinating..

You can totally do a delayed schedule but know that you might have to go to a private practice pediatrician because most major hospital doctors won’t allow you to deviate from the CDC schedule because they get paid for them essentially

I am personally not for vaccines and I think they are bad regardless when you give it to them. But i am a big fan of doing your own research and make your own decision. There is another Crunchy mom group on this app with more members and that topic came up a few times lately. There are some really interesting articles and documentary recommendations what you can look into. If you want me to share some info too let me know.

can you share this info please i’m very undecided to vaccinate my baby

Yes, I’ll send you a dm :)

Hello can you share that to me to please

Sure! I’ll send you a pm :)

Vaccines don’t cause autism.

When does it get better?

I was crying on the phone with the perinatal mental health team today and the lovely lady, bless her, kept assuring me that it gets better. I kept telling her I hope so because people have been saying that since having my LO and it just feels like it keeps getting worse. She assured me it gets better....

Rant/WWYD

My sister (youngest, 24) has two kids, 4 & 1, and i (oldest, 30) just have my one who’s 6mo old right now, so i ask her for advice or call her to vent about things sometimes. Well im tired of her turning around and telling my other family members that I’m “losing my sh*t.” Literally have not lost my sh*t nor have i ever freaked out to her about my baby, i just call her to talk and tell her what stage my baby is in or talk through how im feeling, but she chooses to tell people that im like a complete nutcase or something which worries me that my family is going to start being judgmental about me as a mother or looking at me funny like I’m some fragile ticking time bomb.

What would you do in this situation? I’m already pretty much decided that I’ll stop telling her anything about my struggles, but I’m almost at the point where i feel like it should be confronted because she, of all people, should understand what I’m going through.

Night time routine

Heya, my 3 week old daughter is currently exclusively breastfed and I’m not pumping. Can anyone recommend the best way to share the load with my partner? At the moment I’m doing all the feeds/burbs/settling and my partner is sleeping through which obviously isn’t sustainable, I’m trying to work out the best way to get him involved. Any advice very much appreciated!

Rapid cool/ hot shot method

Sorry if this sound stupid but how are we doing the hot shot method?
Are we boiling the kettle and letting it cool a little before adding to hot flask? Then with the cool water do you boil the kettle and leave it to cool right down before putting into another flask?
My baby brain is fried trying to work out the easiest way!

i just want someone to talk to😔😔😔😔

when things get hard i have nothing not any support from my partner im convinced he doesn’t even love me anymore but thats another story
I have a 3 yo and a 2yo that are in bed sleeping only just now. I have a 1 yo that’s been sleeping from 8 o’clock to 10 o’clock. I just gave her her milk and she would’ve gone back to sleep if it wasn’t that
