Starting foods for my 6 month.
Hey, mamas.
My baby girl just turned six months four days ago… And I’ve been trying purees once a day. How often did you guys feed, and how often did you try a new food? This is all new to me!

At 6 months, I was doing just once a day (lunch only) and she tried a new food every 2 or 3 days. Make sure you start introducing allergens early on as well.
We started with purees but had an earlier teether so we used the mesh pacifiers and put frozen berries in them.
Highly recommend introducing allergens early!
thank you ladies! I deff will!!!!!! ☺️

Transition to 2 kids is killing me 😭
Anyone else totally overstimulated?? I never imagined it would be so hard! 3.5 week old and 2y9m old and the absolute exhaustion is making it soo hard to cope with the two of them! I feel bad writing this but OMG! One is constantly on the boob and the other never stops talking or jumping or whinging. Today she did a poo on the floor, peed on the pouffe and bit my husband 🆘😭 I know its normal for the toddler because its a big adjustment but it doesnt make it easier to deal with day to day. Then she goes to bed and its up all night with the baby ahhhhhh. I feel like this is going to kill me! Hope its not just me 💀💀💀

Nursery struggles
My nearly 11 month old daughter did her second day of nursery today, she cries as soon as we get into the room which I know is normal, but she’s refusing to nap all day or have any milk (she’s breastfed). It’s meant she’s so overtired on a night she just cries and cries and I can’t get her down, I think its made her a bit anxious about me leaving her.
I honestly don’t know if she’s ready for nursery yet and I feel so sick of guilt but financially I have no choice as I need to go back to work 😭
When does it get better?!

Food pouches/jars
Hi girls, anybody who’s still using the pouches/ jars (Ella’s kitchen, Heinz etc)… how much of the jar or pouch do they eat? Like half or the whole thing? 😊

How bad really is TV
Is tv really as bad as the internet makes it out to be, how often do you let your LO watch it and does turning it off cause tantrums?
I have a 7 month old and he does watch little bits of tv so I can get things done around the house but I’m always seeing about how tv should never have been introduced. Obviously as soon as I’m finished what needs done and I turn it off and begin interacting again he just forgets about it but I worry soon he will cry and want it back on again.
Honestly just curious of how mums handle housework and baby and how often screen time is allowed in peoples houses 😊

Talking with partner
Hi, just wondering if anyone else's partner works 12 hour days? My partner always says he is too tired to talk about things with the kids (like dates for parents evenings etc) and so we just skip talking about it. Are there any good tactics on how or when to best time a conversation?! He seems either always at work or so tired from work he doesnt want to deal with life admin.....
