Standing independently

My almost 14 month old can’t and won’t try to stand independently - is this an issue? All the babies we are friends with his age are walking or at least took 1st steps. He is just not interested. I get embarrassed because constantly asked “is he not walking yet?” Any advice on how to help him along?

What are your guys experience?

Sleep training?

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🥲.

exclusively breastfed baby learning to take bottle

hey everyone! i did a Keeping in Touch day today at work for the first time and left my little one with grandma, she was absolutely fine playing but when it came to nap time she cried so much because she usually feeds to sleep with me, around 4 months old she used to take a bottle no problem when I had my mum look after her but now she is refusing the bottle, I guess at 8 months she is obviously able to tell the difference and just doesn’t like it… Im just worried that she won’t nap properly when i go back to work fully because she won’t like feeding from the bottle.

Has anyone got any tips to teach baby to take the bottle too if they’re exclusively breast fed? Luckily today was just a half day so i ran to my mums to feed her and put her down 😀

Cut toddlers bangs or grow them out?

My little one is two years old. We put her hair up or clip it back so it's not in her eyes. I had bangs when I was little and so did my sisters, so my mom naturally asked if I was going to give my daughter them. My husband has also asked me if we're going to. I'm not sure about it. Obviously if she asks for bangs when she's older she can have them, maybe I just have bad memories of trying to grow out my bangs for a while lol and having them be crooked when my mom tried to cut them herself.
