Stupidity?

Personal opinion if you don’t agree sorry but not sorry. I just don’t get why people wouldn’t want to get your child vaccinated when it’s to fight against disease and to keep babies safe so much research go into these I’m sure if it harmed them they wouldn’t make them at all.

Vaccinate your children! It's the only responsible thing to do. Side effects from vaccines are incredibly rare. Many of the diseases they prevent can be fatal. Don't believe the conspiracy theorists.

I had all the vaccines and I’m healthy and mentally ok. So my baby will be too!
If something bad happens to your baby u wont forgive yourself for not vaccinating them!

Ignorance.

My older son has very very bad reaction for vaccines so i haven't vaccinate my younger one

Vaccinate!!! Not vaccinating is the reason that whooping cough etc is on the rise. My friend vaccinated her child. Everything was fine. Then came into contact with a child not vaccinated, with whooping cough. We buried my friend's child last week. Not vaccinating impacts everyone. Not to mention the health complications your child will face later in life.

Doctors and hospitals are not as educated and equipped in the diseases that the vaccines are for as they used to be.
The fact that there is a resurgence of diseases that were almost extinct is an issue.
If nothing else take that into consideration.

Whoever wrote this post, look at the meningitis outbreak that’s happening in Kent now, and the 2 young people who have died and the baby who has just caught it and is in hospital. I’d be going to get those jabs done asap such a silly thing not to do.
My partner does his own washing (great!) and I do mine and our toddler’s.
Sometimes I put toddler’s clothes straight in the washing machine if they are ditched, with a view that I’ll do a load later.
But this morning, my partner needed to do a load of washing and instead of washing our toddler’s clothes with his (toddler had a vest, jumper, and a top), my partner took our toddler’s clothes out, put them on the side, so he could wash his own clothes???
Why not just chuck our toddler’s clothes in with his?
This has happened twice now and he’s never washed our toddlers clothes

Husband wants me to stay off my phone when breastfeeding day or night. He says the phone is too close to the baby's head. Husband is annoyed that I said No. I'm up doing nights and baby's in my arms and I should stay off my phone. Ridiculous. He said i should read or listen to something instead.
😒
Thoughts? Anyone else doing this.
FYI i'm not on my phone all feeds. Just at 3 something in the morning when I have had minimal sleep yes I am on my phone trying to stay awake.

My little girl is 15 weeks and for the last 3ish weeks has been fighting every day time nap, and bedtime.
She doesn’t have strict wake windows and I just follow her sleepy cues, which are usually rubbing eyes, yawning, and staring into space. When she gets to this point I will give her her dummy to soothe into sleep, but she resists it to the point I have to rock her whilst she screams for 20 minutes before finally falling asleep.
She only wakes twice in the night around 1:30 for a feed and again at 6:30.
Is there a way to stop this or will she just naturally learn to fall asleep peacefully one day? 😂

My baby girl is 3 months old now and fights and screams whenever I try to lay her down to breastfeed. When/if I can finally get her latched she is really hungry but getting her to latch when she is that frustrated is very difficult. I have tried to sit her up when I feed her but with the way my boob hangs we just end up in a more awkward position and she gets even more frustrated. Any advice?
