Curious on height
Has anyone measured how tall their child is recently?
My partner just done it as we needed to measure our washing machine and he stood still for his height as we measured the washing machine. The kid is 3ft3. Im 5ft2. My son wont even reach the teens before being the same height as me

I wouldn’t worry so much about height - it’s something completely out of our hands ahah if they are short or tall as long as they are healthy i would say .. but my son is a little small for his age (turning 4 end of the year) and he is about 100cm ish - my husband is 170 and I am 172 and funny enough everyone is super tall on my side and super short on his ahah so we shall see how he will turn out 😂
Mine is 110cm, but he was also big and long at birth
Measured my boy recently as I was unsure if he had outgrown his car seat. He's 103cm. He's always been tall for his age and super skinny. Built like a runner bean 😅 we've recently had a second and he's in the 80th percintle for weight and height so another tall boy.

Am I a bad mom
I let my son (4) watch videos while he’s going to sleep.
He gets put to bed at 7 and is never awake past 8.

Floor Play
Do you really get down on the floor to play with your baby (not crawling yet) for more than 2 mins? It's so uncomfortable for me and also I don't know how to play with my young baby for more than 2mins at a time!?

Am I overreacting?
So I do have OCD. I was pushing the pram along the pavement the other day and noticed a used pepette of something with the toxic symbol all over it. I couldn’t be sure whether or not the pram wheels went over it so I gave them a quick wipe with a dettol wipe and put the pram back in the boot of the car like normal. Thing is I’m now spiralling over it and think everythings contaminated . After some advice on what you would do and also why on earth is it ok for people to drop these where kids may be walking etc . Appreciate this may sound strange just after some advice

Toilet trips
Hey guys,
My baby is 7 weeks old today. He has gone from having 3-4 dirty nappies a day to pooing every 12-24 hours just the once. When he does poo, it’s been super watery/runny but still dark mustard colour. He strains all day and night until this poo comes seeming really uncomfortable. Has anyone got any tips for this or experienced the same thing?
I have tried infacol and have now moved over to gripe water which he won’t really take to and I don’t want to force it. (Bottle fed baby)

Anxiety as a new mum
Has anyone got any advice. My newborn is 11 days old and I've been really struggling with anxiety about making sure he is OK, feeding schedules, waking through the night and a few other things. I'm seeking help but wondered if anyone can share their experiences?

2 YO sticking fingers in his butt
Ok, something I have never thought I’d have to post and ask. But idk what to do. I get exploration is normal at this age, (just turned 2 a month ago) and at first it was digging in his diaper. But then at bath he keeps sticking his fingers in his butt hole, and not just a little. I caught him the other day about to try to put a toy in there. I continue to tell him that is ouchy and can get sick or hurt as he obviously still sticks his hands in his mouth as well. I also tell him that he can play with his toes or belly button instead but he just ignores me. I’m worried he is going to hurt himself among other things.
Anyone else’s child did/does this? Will he just stop one day? Any solutions? I’m at a loss here 🫠
