Does your baby have a schedule?

Like everyday you make sure to do things at a certain time. Not just a routine. And how old is your baby??

We’ve got an incredibly loose routine right now. I have a 5 week old and a 2 year old.

I’d say my baby has a routine, but not a strict schedule. It’s flexible. We pretty much do the same flow every day wake up, bottle, read/play, etc. The times shift from day to day. It makes it easier for us on days when we’re out and about. She’s 13 months.

It highly depends on the baby’s temperament!
Mine can’t work clock wise, it needs a rhythm. Some can have specific times and don’t care
Mine is now 18m

I work full-time so we have a schedule. I wouldn’t survive without it. My kids are 4 and 2 ish. We deviate from the schedule from time to time, and it’s not the end of the world. Except in the mornings because we need to be at daycare/ school/ work at specific times.

No schedule…. Not too much of a routine.
9 months

I don’t have one for me. When I’m sleepy I sleep. When I’m hungry I eat. Now it’s it about the same time most days yeah but sometimes not.

Why would I not tray them like I treat myself. Babies are people too!

10 months today and no schedule at all! She leads whenever she wakes, wants food and naps etc I just follow her lead😅it works well for us

My baby is 9 months old soon to be 10. Everyday after breakfast we go for a long walk(10k steps) he takes his first nap of the day there along the way

I try but everyday she is different and I’m different and needs change daily. I want to be the mom on a set schedule and routine but it’s hard to do when I’m not fully stay at home mom. The most schedule we stick is she naps by 1-3 pm depending how cranky she is

Nope. We have a routine that’s adjusted based on her age, but never a time schedule like waking up at x time or breakfast at x time etc.
The closest to a time schedule is me setting a timer for tv time, and a timer for no phone time for me so I can be 100% present with her. She’s 3.

19 months and we've never had a real schedule. We have a general flow for the day

My son is now 2 and half but I kept as close to possible for food and sleep not necessarily at the same times more to the wake windows/food gaps. I know ppl who were very strict and would go home for naps and I know ppl who had no routine at all, just what worked for each of us

Baby is on a schedule at 2, didn't really even try until about 18 months old. Flexible by an hour or so each way but these days a little more rigid and his body has adjusted well.

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.

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.

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 🙂

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.

Can someone pls help i keep making this post and nobody is responding

My boyfriend booked a trip for us to go to mexico for a week as my push present. I have severe anxiety leaving my 7 month old with my mom. I know she will be in good hands but she’s exclusively breast fed for the most part but accepts bottles just fine. i have all my pumping parts packed and will pump when baby normally eats but i don’t want baby to forget me or have latch issues when i return!! any mommas ever experience this?
