Transition from Next2Me to crib

As our LO will soon be half year old what are your plans for transitioning to crib/bed?
At the moment she sleeps next to us in her Next2me but suggestion is to move them from 6 months into their room in the crib as Next2me is also meant to be used only up to that time too. I though half year is a long time but now that its almost here I am not ready for her to sleep away from us.
We do have AI smart baby monitor (Cubo AI) which is great with HD video and sound and it also has smart alerts but I still feel that she is so small.
Anyone else feeling the same? 🥺🙏🏻

Yes! We decided to not move him to his bed just yet for many reasons. He still using the snuzpod but soon we will upgrade to a crib and set it next to us half open

thank you for
replying, ah I see. Unfortunately thats not
an option for us as we have no space in the bedroom for a crib as it is a big wooden crib which will
be her bed until
she is 4. I am
currently abroad with LO for 2 months the photo is not taken at home.

Yes she is my last and Im not ready to move her 🤣 some people switch to using their travel cot in the bedroom with them. I might do that for a bit! Xx

My lo won’t be moving out our room until she is too big for the next to me or can sit up on her own (from lying down)

Her nursery is still an office 😆

My little one will eventually be going into her older sisters cot but she’s not ready for a big bed yet so waiting for that first, for now we are about to start using her travel cot in our bedroom. She is also still waking in the night for feedings and to replace the dummy so I’m not ready to actually have to get up out of bed and into a different room to get her haha

We've just moved into a cot but shes still in our room (5 months) and its unlikely she'll be going into her own room for a few more months. Shes still too small and tbh we have to rejig everyone's rooms to give her her own room and that's a job I am not ready for haha xx

We moved our little man over to his room just before 4 months but like you I wasn't quite ready. The regression hit so we started co-sleeping on a mattress in our bedroom which was so much easier. Although he's doing well now, I can't bring myself to move him back. I love that the first thing I see when I open my eyes is his gorgeous gummy smile 🥹

We’ve put her cot in our room and omg she is so busy now with all the space!! She does spins, rolls around and now has decided she will only sleep on her belly!! Absolute caos lol I’m going grey!! And she only rolls from back to belly, doesn’t really roll from belly to back! 🫠🫠🫠

My little girl moved out sooner because she’s quite long and chubby so she just outgrew it. No need to move her out of it if she still fits 😊 My LG has her travel cot directly next to us now so she’s not far at all.

No plans to move little girl into her own room until at least 1 year as SIDs is a very big fear of mine so I like to keep her very very close 😂

Wdy think of this for a toddler to learn word construction?

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
