Sleep train

Hey mums
When did everyone sleep train their babies and what method did they use?? I’ve got a 5 month old and I feel like it’s to early and he’s to little but Google says now is best

I just had my 2yo review today. And honestly that could have been a phone call. She didn't look at the questionnaire at all, barely interacted with my son and didn't weigh or measure him.

Is this normal or should I call back and ask for more? I'm not concerned about his development etc at all. It just felt like a waste of time tbh.

Edit: I also felt a slight judgement when I told her he's not in nursery yet as I work from home. We go to plenty of playgroups etc but she was like: oh ok...

2 month old grunting constantly

My 2 month old is grunting and squirming almost constantly. If hes awake and not feeding then it seems like is squirming and grunting about 95% of the time. I thought it was infant dyschezia, but is it normal for it to be all day long? He poops about once or twice every other day.

Pram

I was wondering when are people planning on changing their little ones into the seated pram rather than the bassinet? My little on is 3 1/2 months and got good neck control!

Dummy guilt

My daughter is 15 months old. She uses the dummy primarily for sleep but also when she’s really struggling to settle in the pram or is really upset/ill etc.

I just feel so guilty. She is very chatty so I don’t think it is slowing down her speech but I worry about it anyway, and also the impact on her teeth.

She is with a childminder 3 days a week and I feel that every picture I see of my daughter there she has the dummy in. My husband is also much more liberal with using the dummy than me, he just thinks it’s all moral panic and if she’s upset, she should have one.

I just think I don’t even know how I would stop using it. She needs it to sleep. She used to spit it out after a while, but I feel it stays in so much more of the night now.

Eugh. I just could cry. It has been such a help, giving me some respite as a breastfeeding mum, but also I don’t want to harm my child.
