Holidays with toddler

Do you let your toddler stay awake past bedtime and forget their routine to enjoy your holiday or do you stick to usual routine and put them to bed earlier and suck it up? (Preferable for mums of toddlers before 2)

Diaper fibers & Boys

Hello. I didn’t grow up with brothers or boy parts. So i have a question. Does it hurt for me to pull the diaper fibers off from around the tip? I have been needing to do it more frequently with these diapers.

Partners …

Hey! Whose partner gets up with the kids in the morning? I can’t remember the last time mine did. It’s just become the norm that I get up everyday at 6:30am with both children & my partner swans down at about 8:30am (self employed)
Is this the reality for many others or am I being taken for a push over?
I also do bedtime every night & he barely makes it up the stairs to say goodnight. Is this normal?

How many of you are putting baby down to nap/sleep on their front if you’ve found they have a preference for that?

General Anaesthetic in babies

My 10 month old had tongue tie surgery under general anaesthetic on Thursday. His sleep has been terrible since. He always sleeps throughout the night but for past 2 nights he has woken up and would not settle back to sleep for over 3 hours. Also every time he wakes up from sleep he screams hysterically. Anyone with similar experience? Heard that this can be normal but wonder how long it will last?

How to get into the mindset of loving being a mum?

I have a 4 month old who I love to bits but I can’t help everyday miss my old life and wish I could get it back and then get angry at the fact that I’m a mum and hate it. I feel trapped and miss my freedom. I want to work on looking at things differently and love it but it’s hard. Any help? I have an amazing supportive partner and my boy is amazing but I can’t see it like that.
