Does your 2 year old have a nap?

My LO is showing signs of dropping naps so wanted to see if other mums are still giving naps

I do try get my son to nap but it takes him 1 hour to fall asleep so most the time we skip it

My daughter is doing the same it’s been going on for months taking 1-2 hours to fall asleep

My little monkey (2y5m) usually naps around an hour and a half or couple of hours at home, an hour at nursery and nothing (or very little) with her dad. At home, she naps in bed, in a quite dark room... and if it has been at least 5 hours since she woke up in the morning, she usually goes down pretty easily x

Yes one hour waking no later than 1:30 for a 9pm bedtime. He can’t survive all day without a nap and getting horribly over tired x

Oh he napped until 3. Granted he’s exhausted from wherever we went that day so he usually falls asleep in pram or car if we’ve left early. Otherwise he naps in pram while I push him around. I didn’t stop using the pram until he like 4. When he started 3yr kinder was when he stopped his naps

My little boy wakes around 7:30/8am and then naps from 12-1/1:30pm and then bedtime is at 7:30pm. He will be 2 and a half in March

My daughter can't get through the day without a nap, but they're getting shorter now, no longer than an hour and a half and sometimes at nursery just under an hour. Her day is roughly 6:30 wake up, nap 12:30-1:30/2 and then asleep around 8

When did you circumcise your baby?
If you DID NOT or DO NOT have a circumcised son DO NOT comment this post is not for you!

Did you wait a certain amount of time or have it done immediately?
Again respectfully, this is only for the parents who choose to do so.
opinions about how not necessary it is will not be appropriate for this post. Thank you in advance. 🩵

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?

Postpartum

I’m only 3 days postpartum (FTM) and already have extremely bad anxiety. I’m crying every night, as I think of another night of no sleep. My baby will not settle in his cot, he cries every moment we put him down unless in his chair rocker. So me and my partner are having to alternate after 3/4 hours of being awake with him downstairs. I’m trying everything to get him to settle. It’s a load of overwhelming stress. I’m 23, I was desperate for a baby and now I have one and feel completely useless. I miss it just being me and my partner.

I feel like just a milk cow

Hi I have a 16 day old via c section, I'm a FTM never having been around babies before as I am the youngest of my household and from a small family. My husband is fantastic with our little one. But ever since I've had the baby I just feel like the only thing I'm good for is producing milk. I feel disconnected from my husband like the only reason he's around is because am producing milk. We were having some issues before the baby and we're struggling it took a while to feel like he was onboard even though he said he was from the moment we found out. I dunno if I'm feeling like a spear part because I'm lacking confidence with baby or because I feel like he wouldn't mind being a single dad. Is this postpartum hormones or something else?

How long did it take for your child’s circumcision to heal and you could give him a bath?

I’ve just been wiping him down with a fiber wash cloth but I just wanted to know from others experience on how long it took

Guilt

Does anyone else feel guilty for every little thing they do? I feel like I need to be entertaining my little one at all times. If I have to put her in the activity center to finish a task, instant guilt. In the car for too long, instant guilt. Replying to work emails instead of interacting with her, instant guilt. I know independent play is good for her but my brain thinks otherwise. Please tell me it gets better, I’d love to shower for more than 10 minutes without it feeling like the world is going to collapse.
