3 year old keeps touching our hips

Our 3 year old (boy) keeps touching and pinching my husbands and my hip. We keep telling him no but he doesn’t listen and it probably happens at least 10x daily. I can’t find anything about it on dr. Google - does anyone else deal with this and what to do?

My son pinches my butt 🤷🏼‍♀️😂

I ignore it and he doesn’t do it again

He randomly does it though at times but I’ve learned to ignore the undesired behaviors because the more you draw the attention to it, they tend to it

My daughter copies her dad. So if he hits/grabs/pinches my butt she does too. Could it be your son is seeing this type of behavior somewhere and mimicking it? My daughter is 18 months, so we try to redirect her behavior when she does this. Switching from smacking my butt to giving me a hug to try and get her to stop. But also my husband tries to make sure she isn’t looking before he does something we don’t want her copying.

What can I do to help him fall asleep in his own room. Please help a mamma out x

Nursery help!

11 m baby boy did great in his settling in sessions. Only cried when I picked him up. But since starting properly this week it's been a nightmare. He's waking up earlier so a long wake before first nap , having 30 mins naps there so he's exhausted when we pick him up. They said he's crying and upset most the day, they cant put him down. I picked him up early today because he's so exhausted he's struggling.
I feel so so awful that he's struggling.
Does anyone have any tips or just reassurance that it will get better?

Struggling to go out with baby

Hi! Ftm to a 3.5 month old and tbh haven’t really gone out of the house with baby except with my husband. I get really bad anxiety and the thought of going out alone with baby is so hard to handle.

I’m also embarrassed that I don’t even know how to use our stroller/car seat. I’ve tried practicing putting baby in and out of car seat and into car but I’m scared if I don’t know what to do if I can’t handle it by myself when I go out. Also haven’t met any mom friends.

And also wake windows? Naps? How do I deal with all this when going out? I just feel so lost and alone in this. Any advice or comments to know I’m not alone.

Baby routines

My baby is 14 weeks old and still in no routine as such. He typically goes to bed at 8.30-9pm and we have a wind down routine from 7pm. But he wakes up at different times and has never slept through. He doesn’t nap at the same time each day and everything is very much baby led. I read about people who have routines and their baby sleeps though.
What’s your experience? I feel like I’m quite a disorganised person and feel bad if it’s on me not being more structured!

Bedtime

What time does your 4 month olds go down to bed at and how long do they sleep? Also any night feedings?
