3 year old fears

Hey mummas my 3 year old girl is scared of the “move it move it” song from Madagascar she’s never heard it before until my oldest daughter played it and she’s been terrified since she heard it! Also vacuums all of a sudden she will run and hide under her bed! Any advice will be wonderful thank you

Being intimate after an episiotomy

I gave birth 4 weeks ago and the delivery was difficult, my baby was in the wrong position and with the cord around her neck, but the midwife didnt check and got me to push for an hour with no luck. I then was taken to the operating room and had a forceps delivery with an episiotomy. Im now 4 weeks post partum and I am conscious of my intimate area as I can always feel it but its not exactly painful just not comfortable like it was before. A few days ago a midwife said my stitches look to have gone now and it looks healed but I know ill get it properly reviewed at the 6 week medical check. My husband and I do want to be intimate as its been a while now, but im conscious that my area doesnt look or feel the same as it did before and I dont know what it will be like when I do have sex again. Im curious what others experiences have been who have had an episiotomy.

Own room

When is everyone realistically thinking of putting their babies in their own room? I feel like we would all sleep so much better if mine was in his own room by now!

People with 2 or more children!

What ages did your children share a room? I have a 2.5 year old who sleeps through the night no issues, and a 7 month old who currently still wakes at least once in the night and has a bottle, we have a 2 bed house so they will be sharing a room and some point but just wondering what ages people moved their youngest in with other kids !

Cot blankets

I just need advice what age did you get a cot blanket for your lo I have a 13 month old and he is waking up in the night I am assuming is because he is cold but he won’t sleep with a sleeping bag he will just scream until I take it off but I am so nervous to give him a cot blanket and pillow

It’s crazy being with someone for so long and a baby changes your dynamic that you almost break up before the child is even one is this a part of postpartum balancing motherhood and my relationship with my significant other 7m pp

Any success stories breaking up and getting back together

Advice on how to get my little one to sleep in the cot

Hi, mum to a 6 month old here. My little one used to sleep in the cot and wake up a few times. Since his 4 month sleep regression, we have been co-sleeping and he sleeps in bed with us. I’m worried about safe sleeping and would prefer he sleeps in the cot, however he cries as soon as I put him in the cot.

Any advice on how I can train my baby to sleep in the cot?
