SEX QUESTION?

Me and my husband did a quickie in our room today while our toddler was in the living room for only 5 mins. He was watching tv but i definitely feel bad because we always wait till night time to make sure they are asleep. So do you…

Personally I don’t think j would be in the mood while looking after my baby but As long as your baby is fine by themselves for 5 minutes and can’t see or hear you it’s okay don’t feel bad

Girl sex is important, ofc there’s seasons of your life where you just won’t be able to have sex and that’s fine. But in my opinion and experience, a healthy sex life aids a relationship! Get that quickly in, if you’re both in the mood, your toddler won’t notice and then both his parents will be happier after 🤷‍♀️

I think as long as everyone is happy, safe and cared for then it’s okay. I personally get really paranoid that I’ll traumatize him (I think I’m projecting my own trauma 🫠) by having sex where he can see/hear etc even though he’s only 4 months old. It’s my personal thing but I might loosen up a bit as he gets older and is entertained in a different area for a while.

Little one was watching tv and content. I think as long as they can’t see or hear you, it’s fine. We would do that too sometimes, just to get a little connection before the day went on especially if we knew one of us would be gone in the evening.

We mostly end up doing it in the morning before she wakes up. Sometimes at night. Or during nap time. I feel like we’re too busy during the day to get it in. If y’all can do it while he’s awake, then you go girl! You do what you think is right.

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.

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.
