How often do you bath your toddlers?

I usually shower my son every other day or sometimes more if needed but I’m wondering when to start washing everyday? I’m just picturing him hitting puberty and having body odor and not having that desire to wash up everyday because it wasn’t established..

Every other day

i do every other day normally as well, unless he gets dirty from being out and playing outside or anything like that. When we just stay home i usually do every other day because my kids have sensitive skin

Same as you guys. My 3 & 5 year old usually bathe every other day unless we've been outside running around sweating. We're usually barefoot all day outside so we just wash our feet before bed.

Bath every night since he was a baby but many times is water only

Everyday

Every other to every two days, unless we’ve been swimming or outside getting dirty and sweating a bunch.

Every day. Since she hit the floor. Once she started walking it was necessary germs and what not. Keeping her clean was priority. But that’s just me

She is in pre-k now 3 and she takes her clothes off at the door and we go straight to bath. No germs over here I just can’t lol

I see everyone that’s been saying everyday stay in different climates as well.. I’m in Ohio but if I was somewhere where he was in humid hot weather all year round, personally for me it would be everyday. Being in Ohio, we experience all seasons and every day for me is a bit much especially since he’s not in daycare or pre K and only is watched by his grandma when me and my fiancée do go to work! I just am unsure as to when I should at least try getting him into the bath everyday just so that will start becoming a habit for him.

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 🙂

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

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.

Pumping advise

FTM to a 2 week old! I’m breastfeeding and then giving one formula bottle last in the evening before bed. I want to start expressing milk to give me some breathing room and also allow my partner to be more involved in feeding. I’m finding the idea of introducing pumping into my day quite overwhelming though. I don’t want to take milk away from my baby by pumping if he needs it during the day when being breastfeed.

Can anyone advise how I start pumping and when to do it? Thank you!
