help

is it normal for my almost one year old to have no interest in learning to walk and seems nowhere near ready for his first words? i’m getting quite worried as my health visitor has booked another appointment in a couple months to see how he’s doing

They tend to start to show concern at 18 months if not showing any sign of either. It's great that you're seeing your HV regularly to check in 👍🏼❤️

My first born was 18 months when he started walking. He is absolutely rapid at running now ( age 4).
My 16 month old still not walking independently. No concerns. They do it when they are ready.

Do you hit your husband?

Like a smack on the back of his head or back
Or straight up hitting him and beating on him
Or not at all

Breastfeeding

I’m 4 days postpartum and up to now we have been bottle feeding. I think I have decided I want to try breastfeeding. My boobs have gone hard today and I think my milk has come in. Is it to late to try

Great grandma kissed my babies face

My girl is 5 weeks, we spent over 2 weeks in the NICU and I am very germ conscious because of everything, she had sepsis and needed resuscitation at birth so I’m very overprotective. We took my girl to see her great grandma and she kissed her on the face, like on the lips, I am now absolutely freaking out that my daughter will now get seriously ill, we’ve seen several members of the family and this hasn’t happened yet, but now she’s been kissed and I haven’t even kissed her face because of the germs. Its my partners grandma so I didn’t feel like I could say anything at the time, which I now regret but it was all so fast and made me so uncomfortable. I am like very stressed now, any advise on how to stop it happening again and anything that can be said that will stop me having a panic attack over the next few days worrying she will get sick?!

Please

Please please please tell me I'm not the a-hole here or I'm not overreacting because I would have to take accountability and responsibility for my words and apologize. So a little backstory yesterday I did the overnight for our 4-month son. He's going through sleep regression. He was up every hour on the hour and I got maybe 2 hours of sleep. He got to sleep the whole night through. He didn't work yesterday and said he wasn't feeling good. Which okay. But I managed to get all the laundry folded and put away and go grocery shopping and make dinner. That's 2 hours of sleep I had to adult on. Now today he did the overnights last night and my son slept longer. We have my two daughters from her previous marriage. I am not only doing laundry. I'm doing dishes. I'm making lunch for them and I'm also trying to take care of my 4-month-old. He comes in and says he's tired now. I told him to do the laundry because I can't always get to the laundry room because I live in an apartment and the laundry room is on the other side of the building. He left a basket of clothes that were still damp and he came in and said I'm tired and I don't feel good. He's highly allergic to cats and we have three and on top of that he smokes and he has horrible allergies so his sinuses are probably pissed off. Am I wrong for being angry? I don't get to have a day off even when I'm tired. He does right now. He's sleeping because my son is sleeping. WTF 😒😒😒

To shave or not to shave

What is everyone planning or done in the past when it comes to shaving downstairs for labour and delivery. And if it’s not shaven when waters have broken has anyone stopped to shave or planning on doing it. Just wondering…
