Help!
My little boy has just turned 2 and for a few weeks now he’s keeps playing / getting his private parts out. We keep telling him no and he seems to think it’s funny.
I wondered if anyone else is experiencing this and how I can get him to stop doing it.

We try to keep him dressed so like pants and diaper or whatever and we try not to bring it up often enough because the more it’s brought up the more he’ll want to do it. But if he physically pulls it out then we just say hey don’t do that it needs to stay in your pants. And we just keep doing that. And he’ll learn eventually
My 3 year old is always doing the same, playing and pulling even if he’s wearing clothes. We just remind him that private parts stay in his clothes and will redirect his attention to something else where possible.
my son is almost 2 & does this exact same thing 😩 everyone just tells me it’s normal & a boy thing but even with me telling him stop he won’t ☹️

Car seats
What the fuck is that.
Looks like no seat belt, just some bar thing, and a kid that’s small enough to be rear facing in a forward only car seat?? Someone tell me there’s more to this and it’s not as crazy as it looks

Plane seat purchase
Why are we having to pay extra for seats?! I really can't afford to add any more on to the expense. So I'm going to check in, and hope we are next to each other. We are a family of 5, 2 adults and 3 children.
How likely is it that we will be split - and staff care enough to give seats together? Please let me know if this has happened to anyone. I really can't be adding £300 more just for tickets.

Are your little ones walking?
Just wondering if most September babies are walking. We’re on holiday and so many people have commented on my just turned 1 year old walking, which I didn’t expect, I thought 12 months was average age for walking, his older brother walked at pretty much exactly 12 months too

Breastfeeding or screaming - no in between
When it comes to our late afternoon and evening feeds, we seem to hit the same problem; he just won’t unlatch! Baby boy is 5 weeks and will just chew on my nipple, I assume to soothe, and if I ever try to take him off he screams. He’ll even be falling asleep and still hates it, and then won’t sleep at all!
Any one experienced something similar and know how to work around this? I’m sore and need a small bit of my evenings back!

Social anxiety.
Hi guys, I just wanted to ask- does anyone have advice that genuinely works?
Bit of a backstory- I had a meeting with a client, and oh my word, was I jumbling my words and struggling to get my points across because I genuinely struggle with social anxiety. I find it hard to put my points across because it’s like my mind takes over and I freeze. Honestly, I try to put my self in these situations to make me try overcome the hurdle but it just reinforces that I am almost incapable and it breaks my confidence quite a bit rather than help me overcome it. I find that this is something I genuinely need to at least overcome, as I want to be a better mom and I don’t want to feel like my quality of life will always be hindered by this…
They say to go through it and the more exposure the better, but is there anything else that people can recommend?
