How many bottles do you have?

Typically how many bottles do you have? I know it depends on how often you wash them etc. We have 4 at the moment but looking at buying a couple more to avoid washing as often.

Been having the same thought lately! We have 5 that we use daily but I’ve bought 5 more just so I’m not constantly washing.

7 that are out, if home tend to keep on top of sterilising and mainly rotate the same few

We have 6 big bottles and just wash 1 once a day

I hate dishes in my sink so I just have 2 bottles wash one, use the other and rotate

I have 8 but I’ll wash as I use and sterilise 5 at a time

Hope this helps, but my baby girl loves the mama bottles I already had a few anyways, but I bought tommee tippee aswell. However she won’t use them as the teats arent for her, so I bought more mama bottles in a different colours so I have a few sterilised and prepped and the others ready for the day or night and then just switch so there’s always fresh ones to alternate between.

12 😂🤦‍♀️ just because I was obsessed with trying new bottles.. managed to find MAM bottles were better for my baby girls tongue tie x

Post partum sex

VAGINAL BIRTHS, NO STITCHES OR COMPLICATIONS -

How long did everyone wait until they had sex? I usually hate these posts now I’m finding myself asking the same question hahahaha. The sexual tension we both have is unreal, we’ve not slept together since 2nd May😮‍💨 i usually have more self discipline than this! Baby was born 10th August so I’m 3 weeks and 2 days, not much blood is on my pads anymore however it’s there when I wipe. We almost tried the other night but I chickened out in case it hurt 😢

Chickenpox at nursery

The nursery has contacted on my sons second day at nursery to say that a baby has chickenpox. This baby was in the same room as my child.

Is there a high chance of him getting it? The baby was removed within 3-4, hours.
I havent had chickenpox myself so I am a bit worried hence me asking.
Are there any steps I can take?
Thanks all

Toddler toothpaste

My son is 2 and we use the Orajel toothpaste non fluoride. His teeth have gaps and I’m already scarred by that so I want to make sure he’s getting good oral care. What toothpaste and toothbrushes do you guys use. Rn he likes to brush his teeth ( let’s me do it) because he likes to eat the toothpaste 😅 but any advice and he has a dentist appointment coming up too so hopefully all goes well.

Night feeds

Please tell me I’m not the only one doing 2 night feeds and up a lot settling 😩

How did you encourage your LO to take their first steps?

My LG is 11 months (1 year in 3 weeks) and she is ALWAYS wanting to walk holding my hands. She does it really well and is barely putting any weight on my hands any more and she cruises confidently!

I've been trying to encourage her to take an independent step but every time I do, she crawls to me instead.

Any tips would be great!

Baby bath with stand and breast pump recommendations needed!

Hi all,

As we only have a shower I'm looking for any baby tubs which come with a stand ?

Also trying to research breast pumps but there are so many and always prefer to hear actual reviews. Please give me any recommendations you may have! :)
