Favorite shows yet?
I never planned on having my daughter watch screens this early, but we wanted her to sleep with loud sounds right away so she's used to it and wouldn't wake up from small things and it definitely worked. She is just like my fiancé it makes me laugh sometimes. The way she sleeps and eats is just like him too. She’ll sit in her bouncer or swing and watch SpongeBob for hours now. It's her favorite show and I can’t get over it. she even laughs and reacts to it, it's so funny. It calms her down when she’s fussy sometimes, and she really loves the music. I can't wait until she's older so i can show her what my favorite shows were growing up, like strawberry shortcake🍓 or the barbie movies 💗
Do any of your little ones have a show they're interested in yet? Or specific music they like?

Sesame Street or miss Rachel is my go to shows. They’re not overstimulating and teach the kids language and others. I forgot to add the wiggles
For my older son we first introduced the Dancing Fruit. So far baby does not watch any TV intentionally so basically whatever we are watching.
The ceiling fan is the only show my baby cares about right now. I show him occasionally clips of slower paced shows and he admires it for a second. He did try to sneak a peak of the Thor movies while I watched them. 😄
Ms.Rachel, Blippi and the dinosaur train he’s obsessed he’ll sit and watch for hours

PEPPA PIG WORLD
Has anyone been to Peppa Pig World / poultons park on their own with a toddler before? I want to take my 2 year old (25 months) but his Dad doesn't have any annual leave left, and it seems quite expensive to ask grandparents to come along.
Also, would you take a buggy? I fear having to chase after my toddler with a buggy in tow would be a pain, so thinking not?

I am REALLY struggling 😭
My 29 month old has never been very adventurous with her food and wouldn’t often try new stuff although she eats whatever at nursery. She had sickness 2-3 weeks ago and ever since, even her safe food she won’t touch. She’s asks for pizza and eats only the cheese. Her eating is really starting to upset me and stress me out. Every night I cook a meal and she cries at it and pushes it away.
I don’t know what more I can do

Here for advice really, I'm going back to work early January.
I am struggling already money wise, with Christmas, kids birthdays, bills, cannot go back to work sooner as there's no spare money for childcare costs and I have no village outside of us and nursery would be the only way.
But I just feel really miffed and husband doesn't seem worried about it, he has a job but just over minimum wage. Still expects 50/50 split, worried I won't be able to afford Christmas until new year but said I would pay it back later date.
I just don't know what to do. I have spoken to him he seems to just laugh is he really just going to watch me go into debt willingly? Then the next breath he wants to do things like coffee etc on our days off together I don't have the money obviously. He is just tight fisted and hella selfish. My mum would help me but she is under mental health section. LIKE genuinely what should I do ? Sell all my stuff or ?

Weaning!?
So I have older children (15,10) I now have a 5 month old, I decided to wean at 4 months. But now the guidelines are strictly 6 months….Anyone eles started at 4 months? I did tiny spoons of baby 4+ porridge in the morning (3 max) soon as she turned 4 months. Now at 5 months she wants food! She loves food! I’m still only doing 5 maybe tiny spoons of say baby porridge in the morning, and blended veg in the eve while we have our tea. She still has 4/5 bottles during the day and her bedtime bottle.
In the next few weeks up to 6 months I plan to do blw where she helps herself to soft solids.
Please no judgement just interested to know if there’s many other people who weaned (a little!) from 4 months? 🙂
