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!

I love it!!

This is perfect for him.

If I didn't have a wishlist I would have more than that in my cart for this child even though I know it he's just going to be like my dog where I buy him 20 toys and then he just wants cuddles at the end of the day he doesn't even go and sniff the toys anymore he just cuddles me

My husband says you think your kids got to be spoiled just like your dog I think our kid is going to be more spoiled than our dog hahaha

Great for building vocabulary too. Make sure you teach all the sounds of the letters not just the letter names.:)

Temu has these wipeable books where he can practice tracing letters let me see if I can find one and I’ll drop the link

My 22 mo is obsessed with this! He learns the letters so well with this and always sounds the phonics out and recognises all the letters and where to put them! But make sure you get a bag or someyhjb for it we lost like half the letters now😂

How long did you wait?

Obviously you’re meant to wait at least 6 weeks after giving birth but is it still safe to do it before the 6 weeks?

Need advice!!

Posting as incognito as I don’t want to feel judged! I’ve tried getting hold of my health visitor but she never answers the phone.

My little boy is 13 weeks old and is breast fed, he won’t take to dummies or anything like that.

Since around maybe 11 weeks he has point blank refused to sleep in his next to me (he’s not been too much of a fan sleeping by himself in his own bed since birth but would sleep in there for a good 5 hours) at night time so for 2 weeks I’ve only been able to get him to sleep in bed next to me on the boob, now he also has not been able to sleep without boob in his mouth and if I move an inch or even go for a wee he kicks off immediately (he just wants to be on my boob throughout the whole night) nothing myself or my partner has tried has worked, I’ve tried pumping and giving him a bottle before bed but that made everything 10x worse to the point he refused to sleep for 4 hours. I’ve even tried leaving the room so my partner can try patting him off/ cuddling him but my boy screams to the top of his lungs until I come back and then he’s fine. He also sleeps absolutely fine during his naps too with the occasional fighting his nap time.

He’s had a sleep regression at 12 weeks and is now out of that sleep regression and is also teething but I just genuinely don’t understand why he’s is like this now! I honestly feel like a prisoner in/ tied down to my own bed at night and I’m also starting to dread bed time as I’m not getting a full nights sleep from where he’s stirring looking for my boob constantly/ looking to make sure I’m still there and where my body won’t let me be in a deep sleep where he’s sleeping next to me.

It’s genuinely getting to the point where I’m feeling down and emotional all the time and where I’m not sleeping properly I’m a lot more snappy with my partner/ others than usual.

Milk coming in 27 weeks!

Hey just wanted to check if it’s normal to be leaking a small amount of milk at 27 weeks? This is my second baby and my milk didn’t come in with my first until around 36 weeks🫣

Nappy Caddies

I have bought two nappy caddies one for upstairs and one for downstairs, please tell me what I should have in each!

Second baby but brain has frozen!!

Thank you 🤍

Sex postpartum

I’m only 2 weeks postpartum and all I want is my man! It’s actually awful having to wait so long! He doesn’t want to take any risks either even though the NHS advice these days is “whenever you feel ready” but he’s struggling to wait for 6 weeks too.
We’re gonna wait because it’s the safest thing to do but damn, it feels longer than the wait for the baby to be born 😩😂

Swaddling??

Just curious, who all swaddles their babies and if so why or why not?
Me and my partner don't we never have and honestly think our LO hates being restricted anyway!😆
