Signs for non-verbal kids
My Lo (14m) is not really saying words, it’s mostly sounds mama, baba, gaah, cah, dada etc but won’t say words and squeals at things he points at.
He makes a few animal sounds when connecting them with a certain animal but my first was saying full words like mummy and actively pointed to 70% of her body parts when I asked
I only wonder as he has two cousins who are non-verbal and I’m slightly paranoid that it could be the issue or It is just me being paranoid…

My 2nd didnt say much really until 2, i had my 3rd baby and her words keep coming now they are getting clearer each time. I think its because she has someone else to talk to whereas when its me i understood her odd sounds etc so she didnt need to try lol
Not saying have a 3rd baby (unless you want to) but maybe playgroups or nursery might help.
14months is still early for them to say much x

Rigevidon & Breastfeeding
I’m 6 weeks PP and at my 6 week check was prescribed rigevidon but I’m exclusively breastfeeding and have just read that you shouldn’t take it while breastfeeding as it reduces your supply
Is this correct? The GP did ask how i was feeding my baby so was aware i was exclusively BF, anyone else taken it while breastfeeding?

8 week injections
My little girl had her 8 week check up and injections today, she’s spent most of the day asleep but when she is awake she’s just screaming like she’s in pain 😭 it’s absolutely heartbreaking to see, is this normal?!
She’s had calpol and 3 bottles but didn’t drink a lot of them.

Breastfeeding
I am currently combi feeding but wanting to just go to formula, is it okay for me to completely stop breastfeeding or could I express a couple of time a day and just give him a bottle? I’m unsure on what’s the best way to go about it but I want to try and completely cut out putting him on the breast if possible if I can?

Transitioning from next to me crib to cot
My little girl is 6 months old and needing to move out of her next to me to a cot but she HATES the cot. Any tips or do we just have to wait it out until she gets used to it? She loves sleeping on her side and could hold on to the edge of the next to me but obviously can’t do that in a cot which I think is what’s causing her a lot of upset 🥺
