Coconut oil I’ve used it on my toddler and works great

I used the earth mama organic nipple butter and it went away within 2 days. Also, if you keep scrubbing it’ll just get worse since it’s dry skin….

Baby scalp exfoliator every night during shampoos and a lots of coconut oil 🫶

I melted down some coconut oil into a small glass jar and mixed like 1.5-2oz of my breast milk in it, then let it solidify again. I rub that on my daughter’s scalp everyday. Huge improvement with her cradles cap AND her hair is growing in longer, thicker, and faster than before. We also use it as lotion daily and after baths. Her skin is smooth and hydrated. Even her eczema patches have nearly disappeared. I try to use it up within 7-10 days and store it in the fridge since it contains my milk.

A nurse gave me a small knit comb and I used that after the tub and some coconut oil to get rid of it

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!
