Are these cot liners ok and safe? Anyone else use these?

My 5 month old keeps getting his arms and legs stuck on the side of the cot. He also has bumped his head too. Are these ok? They’re saying they are breathable too?

Big fat no from the lullaby trust, don't use any bumpers/liners etc as they're not safe

I’m with on this one. They’re just not safe. My Daughter also used to get her legs and arms caught and probably within a month or so she figured out how to get them out on her own and stopped crying over it. Every now and then if I noticed she was sleeping and had a leg out I would just pop in her room and move her back to the middle of the crib.

I’d err on the side of caution. Mine actually quite likes having his legs through the bars 😅

I actually have them, have since mine was 5 months old, he kept putting his foot through the gaps and getting stuck, since having them, hes been absolutely fine, but just keep a close eye out x

Are we having regular sex?

We're averaging 1-2 times per week. What about you? I thought this was normal but my husband just told me we're not having enough sex. We have a 24 month old and a 12 week old I thought we were doing decent considering....am I wrong?
This has been the average since my son was born 2 years ago.

Post partum hair loss

3 months pp and the hair loss is crazy! When did peoples pp hair loss settle down/stop? Honest answers welcome, aware I may be in this for the long haul 🤦🏻‍♀️😂

Would you rather have A) a fussy baby all day and I mean whining and crying but then sleeps through the night or B) a chill baby during the day and one who wakes up once at night who struggles to remain asleep for whatever reason but tries?

You all have the baby you have lol. Hubby and I were having a conversation about this as we have baby B but he said he would rather A bit then again he isn't on mat leave at home all day with the baby. I am just interested what others would prefer.

8 month olds

My baby will be 8 months at the end of this month and struggling is not the word. All she does atm is cry, and winge and fight. Shes fighting her naps all day long and at bedtime, Theres just a constant crying or winging going on and I really don’t know what to do anymore. I could’ve done everything and she would still be crying. I’m really getting inpatient and struggling because I’m literally shattered, doing it all on my own most days and just feel like it’s gonna be like this forever.

Sleep Training - Cry it out method

Just curious if anyone sleep trained their baby using the cry it out (full extinction) method when they were old enough? How hard was it and when did you start seeing the results? How old was your baby when you tried this?

Tongue tie assessment with infant feeding team

Hi ladies,

I had an assessment with the infant feeding team and the result was borderline. They said she had a milky coated tongue at the back and a high palate. Not sure what all this means. My baby hiccups before and after feeds and sometimes the latch is sore but she has been gaining weight steadily so weight isn't a concern. Not sure if it's related but sometimes after a feed she also coughs, maybe this is related to fast milk flow... The team has referred me to the tongue tie team but just not sure or convinced she needs the snip or not. Is it fair to snip if she doesnt really need it? There is no pain relief for the baby so don't want to get it done unnecessarily. Anyone else had a borderline result?
