Yes.
For sure, no question about it
Yup
Yes, he was fine after the 12 month one 🙂
Yes. Gave my son his first MMR at 6 months old due to concerns of measles cases and has now had 3 doses plus varicella and no issues at all.
Never.

MIL keeps planning to have a sleepover with my EBF 6 month old
She’s too pushy and I’ve said no endless times. It’ll be very stressful for him. I don’t pump because I don’t like it and my baby doesn’t like bottles. I’m currently trying to break nurse-sleep association. It doesn’t make any sense to attempt a sleepover because it’ll be just stressful for baby and I. I just can’t be asked to keep saying NO. It’s almost harassment. I said it’ll eventually happen once I’m back to work, not while I’m in mat leave as I don’t want to be away from my son yet. How can I approach this in a friendly way? She’s just too much sometimes and I’ve been very friendly and open about the idea, but not about the timing.

Due in 2 weeks, what is better for postpartum for bleeding? Using pads or diapers?

Numbness
I’m SURE it’s been asked before, but I’m over a year postpartum and still have no feeling in my scar area. I sometimes get an intense itch that can only stop with wicked hot water but that’s it. Anyone else have the same?

When to stop sterilising?
My baby girl is 3 months and already so curious, grabbing things she shouldn’t, touching things that are a bit dirtier than I would like eg the floor and the rugs lol. Then she puts her hands straight in her mouth. I plan to keep sterilising her bottles etc for a while.
But curious when to stop, because at some point they are digesting bacteria anyways? Or is it still important to sterilise up until 1 year because of milk bacteria etc?

Sleep
My 6 week old is currently waking every hour at night. The only way to put him back to sleep is if I give him my boob again (EBF). He is not really feeding, he uses it as a dummy. I have tried a few dummies and he refuses to take any. Anyone going through this ? Any advice ?
I am not sure how long I can do this for 😓
