3 a day, mainly because he will cry if anyone is eating and he isn’t. 😂 2 meals and 4 bottles a day sounds plenty at this age.

My little girl has breakfast and either lunch or dinner. She’s 7 months this week and hasn’t taken to weaning with much enthusiasm - her older sister was the same! They all catch up eventually, don’t listen to anyone else just follow your instincts x

Breakfast and evening meal ❤️ plus milk whenever he wants it. Xx

Now 3 a day only because he won’t drink his milk (not related to giving too much food as milk is always offered first he just doesn’t like it) so advised to give 3 meals a day.
2 meals plus 4 bottles sounds pretty good at this age especially if he’s finishing all his bottles

My LG gets breakfast and dinner... But she doesn't actually eat that much yet so she still has about 5-6 bottles. She hasn't taken to weaning as fast as her brother did, I will drop her milk as she no longer seems to need it. They're all different and you'll know if your baby is hungry.

Isn't the guidance that at this age they should be eating to get used to tastes etc not actually filling up as main source of nutrition should still be milk. Your baby will tell you if she is still hungry so I wouldn't worry what people are saying
I go with how my baby is on that day but definitely one meal a day which is usually breakfast and another light meal of pureed veg if he is hungry after his early evening (4pm) bottle

My little boy ended up being born end of Feb but he's now having 3 meals and 3 bottles. We also got criticised because he was only on 2 meals and 4 bottles 🙄 sometimes he ends up with an extra bottle but I now give him lunch before he goes down for his nap x
My man’s constant comments about my postpartum body got my head f**ked up. At 24 yo I just had my second son in June 16 and am already down from 150 to 118 pounds and I’m proud of that…but my man (who’s very into fitness) is constantly telling me to go to the gym or sending me workout videos grabbing my tummy fat, whenever the baby’s relaxing he tells me to do squats or sit ups and even sending me A.I pictures of my body edited to what “it could be” he doesn’t see how much it messes with me even tho I say that’s not nice to say. I’ve been going to the gym 3x a week the last 2 weeks and a 2 mile walk daily with the kids sense 6 weeks pp like I’m trying but sometimes I’m just so tired… I’ve always been a very petite person and I know this might sound stupid but I feel rly anxious to just try and get back to how I was. Idk what to say to him because at the end of the day we want the same thing I just want to look in the mirror and pretty again🤦🏻♀️

So I came with an idea to split the day with my sons father because it will be our sons first holiday season. We got a letter in the mail to go by even and odd but I think for his first year we should split the day in half so he both get to experience his first with each family. I originally told him that I wanted Odd number years but then I started thinking that we could just split the day instead, and then go by even and odd. Do you think it’s a good idea? And do y’all think my child’s father will agree? He just start coming around and truthfully if it was up to me I wouldn’t let him get any holiday at all but a part of me is trying to be fair and still cordial with him.

Hello my partner has managed to get us into a lot of debt to the point we don't have the money to pay for bills and food etc. Obviously with baby arriving very soon as you can imagine we are very stressed to be in this horrible situation. I am in tears everyday, my eldest birthday is soon and I havent got him anything yet as cant afford it. I am super fed up and having horrible thoughts which I shouldn't be as i should be so excited this baby is coming but all I can think about it money troubles 😪 my partner has said about writing off the debt which will mean it will leave him with bad credit and we are renting as cant afford a mortgage but going forward I feel like its not the best decision? Can anyone advise please

Am I being a bitch or is being asked “how areee youuu” in that patronising tone 17 times a day by staff members SO annoying. A child said to me this morning “woah your tummy is getting really big”. I’ve had staff members tell me “my pregnant Mrs isn’t that big”. The kids have an excuse but adults??!! WHY do people make ‘big’ comments. It’s crazy because if I turn around and say ‘and so are you’, I’m suddenly the bad guy. How are we all coping doing this job whilst being pregnant. I’m 6mo now. I’m clinging on by a thread 😭😭😭😭.

My little boy is nearly 10 weeks and with the longer wake windows I’m wondering what’s the best ways to keep him entertained!
Please share any toys or exercises you’re doing with your little ones that also help with their development 💙
Including a picture of his bath toys so it doesn’t get lost!
