wake windows

Just looking for some advice, my daughter is 10 months old on Tuesday and just curious as to what everyone else’s babies WW are around this age? We are still on 2.5/3 hours for the first WW then 3.5 for the second then 4 hours for the last before bedtime. We are on 2 naps and around 2.5/3 hours daytime sleep but trying to get her out of the habit of the 2 nighttime wakes she’s doing! Any advice?

Thank you! ( she’s also BF and won’t take a bottle 😆 if that helps with the advice haha so am feeding her to sleep on the second wake but not the first!)

No advice but it's definitely still quite normal to have nighttime wakes! My 14 month old still does at least 2, often more

I know! I’m just running on 0 as she just constantly wants to be breast fed so won’t settle for my partner 🥲

Sounds super similar to us I just wanted to reassure you that you aren't alone in that! It's totally exhausting, if give anything for a full night's sleep

the things we do ay!! We will get sleep one day! Xx

I see this so often with breastfeeding babies. My milk dried up on its own whilst I was EBF so I switched and a couple weeks after switching she slept right through. Maybe try and offer water and not milk as she might be waking up thirsty and not hungry🤷🏻‍♀️

She’s so nearly 1 I don’t want to stop BF yet! But I think when she’s officially 1 I’ll still BF as I’m so use to not spending money on milk 🤣 but if she wakes in the night from 1 my partner will give cows milk!
Thank you 😆

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.

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 🙂

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.

Naps

How is everyone doing for naps?

Little one is 9 months old and will have 2 half hour naps and one solid 1 hour - 2 hour nap a day

Then settles for night around 9pm. Wakes for a feed around 3:30 then sleeps until 6-7
