Bedtime

I think someone posted something similar here recently - but I'm curious what time your babies are going to bed for the night ?

My girls bedtime is all over the place at the moment and can range anywhere from 6pm to 8:30!

My LB goes up at 8 and is asleep in his cot between 8:20/8:30 but he wakes up around 6 every morning. He's definitely a 10 hour a night sleeper x

Late sleeper here which fits perfectly into our routine. She sleeps anywhere between 10pm-11pm. Has a feed at 4/5am and wakes up for the day at 9/10am! Can’t complain 😆

Mine is in bed between 6-6:30pm, a dream feed around 10pm and will get up around 7am

My sons 8 months and he can go to bed between 7-830 each night. Depends on when he wakes up and how long since his last nap. He's been horrific with his naps lately. So trying to be flexible for him. He's defo a 10 hour night sleeper.

Same but ours like like between 6:30 and 9

We generally aim for 7.30pm

Again aiming for 7-7:30. He still gets up multiple times for milk (EBF) and in the process of dropping down to 2 naps

What age did you put your babies in their own rooms? I know nhs says 6 months, but we keep waking each other up 😂😂

8 week jabs 🙈

When should I give my little one Calpol before or after?

The doctors have told me to give it to him before and other people have told me to give it to him straight after as it could hide some of the symptoms.

Blackout curtains or blinds?

Now the days are getting longer trying to keep my little ones room as dark and cosy as possible to keep her through the night, what do people use curtains or blinds that are blackout? And recommendations of ones that aren’t too expensive please!🩷

Do your boobs ever feel sexy again?

I breastfeed and so obviously my baby is always touching, feeling, massaging, drinking, licking all over my boobs.

My partner then goes to touch them either looking for sexy time or during sexy time and I feel like he's doing a milk massage... It just feels bleghhhh

Does this ever go back to normal?

Silly question...

We are having a day out in London next weekend with our 6 month old...

What do we do regarding bottles? We use a rapidcool to make bottles on the go using the hot shot method. But we only have a flask that holds enough for 2 bottles of hot water.

Do we get a massive flask to take with us (will it keep hot enough?) Or is it normal to ask coffee shops/ restaurants for boiling water?

Leaving toddler for dad

Does anyone else leave their toddler in the morning for their dad? Like I can hear her shouting (not crying) but I wait for him to wake up to go get her out of bed.

The reason I do it is because if I were to go and get her, he wouldn’t get up, like I mean would stay in bed for an another hour or two whilst I’ve already been up and started the house work. Also, during the week when we have work and she has the childminder, I’m always the one to get up, sort myself out, the house and the dog out, then get her up and ready, then he gets up 10 minutes before he has to leave and does nothing.

So am I wrong for leaving my her in the mornings sometimes on our days off? Cuz he’s making me feel as though I’m wrong for doing it.

Would also like to point out our daughter never wakes up before 7:30 (except childminder days), most days she doesn’t get up until 8:30/9.
