Baby proofing

My baby is 9 months and walking up and down the house.
Does anyone have any advice how to protect him from the bottom of the radiator. When he have washing on it he goes over but worried hes going to fall and hit his head on the metal part. Hes mostly a confident walker but when it goes from rug to floor it can sometimes throw him off

Honestly there is no such thing as perfectly child proofing a home . Mine unplugs air conditioners and everything else . Boys are just feral

12 hours no feed?!

Hello has your little one ever gone 12 hours or more without a feed? My boy is 4 months tomorrow and last night he woke up every 10 mins from midnight, crying like he’s in pain. He did this for about 2 hours so we decided to give him calpol where he eventually settled and didn’t wake up until 8am this morning and refused his bottle still!! (His last bottle was at 8:30pm) He eventually drank his normal amount about half 9 ish with great difficulty from my end😭 Anyone have similar experiences?

Day-Time Naps

When did your little one start sleeping during the day? My 10 week old struggles with it a lot. He will only sleep for a while if he’s on me. I’ve tried multiple times in putting him down but he will wake up a few minutes later still so tired and then he fights going back to sleep. I’ve tried a darkened room, white noise, shushing and laying him next to me I’ve literally tried it all and he hasn’t improved. I’m thinking maybe it’s less of what I’m doing and more to do with the fact he is still very young?

4 month old regression

Is anyone else’s 4 month old refusing to do anything other than be held.

The whole of her 3 month she was completely fine loved playing on her mat, wanting toys more than wanting to be carried etc and now all she wants is to be carried around the house.

She also started making these grunting noises and loud shouts, like she’s crying or taking a poo, but then stops and smiles. Honestly scared me the other day coz I thought she was having a fit, her squeals went on for hours.

Is any of this normal? Feel like I’m losing my mind 😭

RSV vaccine - how necessary is it?

Not a question for hardcore anti vaxxers please! I am pro vaccines but avoid some less necessary ones like the seasonal flu vaccine. I had it once and it get me the worst flu I've ever i wonder if RSV is similar? Thoughts?? Thank you

Long naps - would you wake

If your baby has a super long nap (like 3 hours), would you wake them at this age?
She did semi wake during the nap and I shoved my boob in her mouth but she only had a tiny amount. My main concern is she's not eaten much for a while ya see!
