LO is 15 months old. He's not walking yet. We've always gone for 2 walks a day, for about 30-45 mins each. I've found this helps LO's mood and also my own mental health. It's occurring to me that perhaps this is too much "container" time. When we're home, I encourage loads of floor time and he enjoys pulling to stand and cruising on furniture. His only other "container" time is in his high chair 4 times a day for meals, and for about 10 mins at a time when I'm getting his food ready, unless someone else is there to watch him (our flat is small and not open plan).

The 10 mins at a time is meant to say in his activity centre/jumperoo thing

Glad you clarified the jumperoo is used while prepping meals, my only worry was bring left unattended in high chair š

It was the only time my son would sleep for me, in the pram š¤£
I don't drive so I walk everywhere, so he'd be in the pram ages!

Thatās fine, I do so much more. Weāre out from 10-2 most days he wasnāt at kinder. That includes play time like at playgrounds, out to eat etc but he uses to nap in pram for 2hrs while I push him around. Youāre good ššš¼

I put mine in the pram just to contain him for 20 mins here and there. Even without walking anywhere just so I can get some house stuff done and he will chill and watch me or have a snack. Donāt worry about it.

Going out is so important!!! Maybe go to a playground and let Lo crawl around and explore
Mine would never sit for 45min in a pram š¤£

Does your little one use push toys/walkers? My little guy loves pushing his stroller or shopping carts when we are out. It may slow you down a bit at first but itās been a fun way for my son to explore the world and practice walking.

My son started walking at 15 months, my daughter round about then too. My daughter never crawled, my son crawled from about 7 months and was constantly cruising for monthsssss. Itāll happen when it happens! Donāt think too much pram time is a problem - at least theyāre getting fresh air
Only lived at my address for 5 months, I canāt go into detail of everything thatās happened with this 1 neighbour because itās too much 𤣠but basically heās weird and creepy as f*. Heās wanting too much information about my toddler, i am 4 weeks pp and havenāt answered the door once (since giving birth) to his parcels being left here or him ringing my bell. I feel like Iām being a bad neighbour but heās just too much. I donāt want to stand at my door having the same repetitive conversation of him delving too much into my life, while I have a baby and a toddler now to watch.
Also my dog only barks at himā¦
He stares into my window every time he walks by (he lives right next door) honestly I wish I could spew every encounter Iāve had with him here but itās too much š¤£š
anyway - how do I stop feeling like a nasty neighbour? I donāt want him to hate me incase he is a psycho and tries anything but I also donāt want him to speak to meā¦

I have just had my 5 day appointment and my baby has dropped 9%. I've been booked for a reweigh on Monday and told if she's lost more we will be sent to hospital. I said that's fine but I will refuse any feeding plan as I was put on one last time ( triple feeding) and it made my daughter projectile vomit and my mh plummet. She then asked if I had through about pumping and I said no I won't be pumping 5 days PP and 1 day after my milk has come in. Honestly the whole appointment has left me so angry at the pressure they put on us to get back to birth weight in 10 days. My partner also said she was weighed wearing a hat and blanket ( I had a c section so couldjt se)

My hasnāt had a poo for almost 6 days now. Heās mostly breastfed and once in a while on formula. Have spoken to health visitor but was adviced to
Monitor. Iāve also done lots of exercises with my baby like bicycle ride and tummy massage but nothing. His tummy is soft and winds a lot but no poo yet. Should I still be worried ? Almost 7 weeks
