Where does your baby sleep?

My 10-month-old has been co-sleeping since 2 months old. I like it but now I kind of wish I had gotten him used to his cot, which we haven’t used at all since we started co-sleeping.

We do both. If he’ll stay there. Awesome. If hes woken up 9 times, I’m tired I give up. Depends

We transitioned from cosleeping to pack n plays for my twins when they started rolling on top of each other at night. They’re still in our room tho

Combination for us- Co sleep for her morning nap, I'll attempt the next to me downstairs or her cot for the rest of her naps (huge fail rate, usually ends in a contact nap 😂), and she's happy to sleep in her cot at night

I said "crib only", but we do occasionally bring mine into bed with us if she wakes up and cries. It's fairly rare at this point and she goes right back to sleep so I don't mind. I think sometimes the idiots with loud trucks and motorcycles on the road outside scare her. We get street racers from 1-3 am. 🙄

Crib mostly but my little guy (6 months) has been a bit sick lately so I always have him sleep next to me in my bed when he’s sick. I don’t sleep as good when we cosleep though lol

We coslept when needed but my toddler was in his basinet until 4 months and then his crib until a year and then his floor bed,he started every night in his own bed and then if he would wake up and have trouble falling back asleep he would snuggle in bed with us. Now he sleeps amazing on his own and almost never wakes in the middle of the night he’s 2 now

Did you know this was a thing?

Didn’t know this existed! I’m actually not breastfeeding 2nd time round (though wish I did) after a bad experience with my 1st baby. But this is something I 100% needed 1st time round.

Circumcision, please help

I know it can be a really sensitive topic, but I feel really underinformed about whether I should choose to circumcise or not if we end up having a boy.
For context: we are very non-religious, but I worry about the stigma of being non-circumcised when he would start to get interested in dating, navigating cleaning it and the risk of infection especially as he gets older and navigating potty training at daycare and stuff. I also worry about the increased risk of penile cancer. But then I also hate the thought of making my baby go through a major surgery unnecessarily and would prefer for them to make the choice when they are older if they choose to get circumcised.

How did you make your choice? Does anyone regret their choice?

How do I end this friendship

My best friend of 15 years and I are in similar stages of life and her behaviour has gotten increasingly erratic and triggering. I am about to have my first baby and she is struggling with postpartum from her second who was born last August. All the “normal” post partum depression symptoms I totally understand but she has also in my opinion made a lot of selfish choices recently.

She is constantly yelling and berating her husband and kids as well as flying off the handle at the tiniest things and it’s super triggering for me coming from a previous abusive relationship. She’s honestly being abusive to her family.

I feel like she always makes everything about herself and her reasoning has gotten soooo misconstrued. She acts only on her emotions and doesn’t care about anyone else’s. She never accepts any constructive criticism or advice even though she complains 24/7 about everything.

She says she hates being a mom and doesn’t want to be around her kids , hates her marriage, hates her job, and complains 24\7 and refuses to do anything to change. She also makes everything about herself including my baby shower we just had. She’s made rude comments to my spouse as well.

I don’t have many mom friends but at this point she is just not the type of person I want to be around because she is being so mean and wanting to bring everyone down with her. Also I am about to have my first baby and just want to focus on me.

no screen mums!!

are you absolutely 0 screens household? my boy is 6mo and me and my partner agreed no screens till 3yo, but I'm a sahm and showering is HARD when I'm alone, I've been thinking about recording myself singing the songs he likes and showing it to him for being able to shower.
What do you do?
