I'm going through this with my kids, oldest is 3 in November, I have noticed when I get frustrated it is si much worse!

I agree but I stay sooo calm and remove myself from the situation but I don’t know what else to do

Recently I’ve noticed my toddler loves sensory things to calm down. I’ll pretend to “make a pizza” on her back. Knead the dough (rub her back) sprinkle the cheese (back and forth motion) pop the pepperonis (she loves this part and I tap random places on her back while doing a pop sound) and put in the oven (sweeping motion on her back) then eat the pizza (nom nom nom) it makes her laugh and calms her down! Try it (:
So a few weeks ago I went to see my cousins baby she's now 5 months old I held her once and interacted with her ect then gave her back to her dad they offered me to hold her again
It just came out and I said I'm okay I'm not really a baby person
I know some people love to hold baby's and cuddle but that not really me.
I wish I had t said it now I feel like a knob I just ment that's I was okay not to hold her again and that I would be more interactive once she's a lil older eg sitting up and crawling ect I find smaller babies quiet fragile I was even like this with my own , I didn't mean it wrong , how can I apologize or am I over thinking it
I didn't mean to offend them at all.

The doctor told me you can't circumcise your baby boy with out the vitamin k shot, but I don't want him to have the vitamin K shot, but I do want him to get circumcised.
What are your guys experience?

He’s 4.5 and he’s just so silly all the time like he makes stupid faces when I’m talking to him and he’s just so loud and obnoxious majority of the time. Sometimes it was funny but now it’s just annoying and then he instigates his younger brother’s behaviour. Is anyone else going through this? Is it normal? What are ways to cope because I just keep rolling my eyes lol.

I am waiting for my daughter to be 6 months to start a sleep training method. Currently, she only does naps on me and nights are divided into two where my husband keeps her until 10:30-11:30 (she sleeps on him) and then we co-sleep. I am not sleeping obviously since she eats often or wakes up because she wants comfort🙃.
Any advice? What did you do? What do you recommend?
She’s extremely attached to both of us and we tried the cry out method when she hit the 4month regression and it was HORRIBLE. I cried with her, she was way too young. She’s 5 months now and we’re going on a trip but as soon as we’re back, for my sanity we need to do something about it🥲.

I need help with independent sleeping. My little one is 9 nearly 10 months now and I’m considering teaching her to fall asleep on her own but I’m not sure where to start. I know a lot of people do the crying it out method but idk if I want to jump right into that 🤧. Right now I usually rock her to sleep or she’ll fall asleep on the bottle or occasionally if she’s really exhausted and can’t switch off, I soothe her after she cries a little. But I can see that she’s starting to get frustrated at she can’t fall asleep on her own and trying to close her eyes and lay down to sleep but she’s struggling. So any tips on how to start or what helped other mums would be much appreciated. 💕

Can I let my 6 month old “cry it out” when I’m putting her to sleep? She’s bathed, fed, cuddled, burped and just takes her time to fall asleep I have to sit next to her cot. I also have a toddler so it’s hard when I’m committing all of this to her and just letting him go to sleep it’s ruining my mental health sitting here for ages.
