Yoto or toniebox?

Hi ladies I have a 13 month old and lately I’m feeling guilty that he is having a bit too much screen time! I find myself having to put it on when I need to get stuff done/ get ready for work/ or just have 5 minutes! At first he would still play and it would be just on in the background but now when it’s on he’s just glued to the screen! I have to also put it on whenever I change his nappy because soon as I lie him Down he just rolls over which makes nappy changing rather difficult ! Someone mentioned a toniebox so had a look and I’ve seen some good reviews, but I’ve also seen people mention a yoto box! Just wondered what people’s thoughts were ? Thanks x

I’ve got yotos for the kids and we’ve loved them for years.

My son is 16m and uses his independently, puts music on in his room as he plays.

It’s cheaper, has more content, more actual voice actors, more languages, make your own ability. It’s a night light, white noise machine, room thermometer, has lullaby radio and the daily quizzes.

My son is the same, especially with nappy changes

I agree, the yoto is amazing. We have the mini one, and my daughter LOVES it. She's just turned 2 and can work it herself. I couldn't recommend them more!

We got my son a Tonies box and he loves it, he likes it more at bedtime for the stories, he’s 21 months. Some days if he’s not at nursery he uses it for the songs

Wake ups

Anyone else’s almost 9 month old ready to start their day at 5:30am?😭
He’s been doing it the last couple of weeks and I am one tired gal

Effects of heat - is this normal?

It's 30 degrees where I am. My 8 month old is in just a nappy, there's a fan on (not pounting at my daughter), and the door is open. She woke up at 4 am and ended up sleeping in our room as it's cooler until 06 30.

She's extra tired and cuddly (has already slept 2.5hrs today and she's asleep on me again) - is this normal in this kind of heat?

She's eating normally and no concern about wet nappies (I think her top teeth are about to cut though)

My mother in law is getting upset that baby girl, who is almost 3 months, doesn’t look at her when she calls her name. She proceeded to yanked at the binky which causes baby to shake lightly and cry.
Mind you baby was half asleep as we had a long car ride over a hour.
I told her to try not to do that and she was upset as she just wants the baby to know she’s there.

Also tell me if it was before or after they took their first steps

Health Visitor Query

Hi, I’m a FTM, and have a health visitor coming this morning. Everyone I have spoken to hasn’t experienced them coming before baby arrives so feeling a bit nervous. I’m 32 weeks, what should I expect from her visit?? 🤍
