Gifts for 2 1/2 year old?

I’m due with baby #2 soon and so worried about how my daughter will feel. She’s still breastfed 3 times a day and is so emotionally attached to me. She’s very close to my husband too, and doesn’t have a relationship with any of our family as they live so far away. Her whole world is “mommy & daddy” and I want her to...

Nighttime/morning milk

For those with little ones about to turn 2 or already have. Are yours still on blue top milk? And if so how many oz per bottle? My little one is 2 in two weeks and still has 9oz of blue top before bed and in the morning. Is this too much? Should I swap to green top?! X

Poop?

How often do your babies poop? Is it okay for them not to go every day? We haven’t started solids yet but I know that can change things

Diet while breastfeeding

Did any of you girls did a protein shake diet during breastfeeding to lose weight? I mean replace 2 meal with the shakes, it is safe? Did effect milk supply? I’m 9 months into breastfeeding and I can’t lose weight so I’m think to go on this route, any suggestions? Thank you

Sleep Help

We've recently stopped giving milk to sleep in order to help keep Bubbas' teeth clean. Since then, it's been a nightmare getting my son to sleep. Sleep has always been tough but now it feels like a battle. Every. Single. Time. We have a routine. Dinner, bath, lotion, jammies, teeth brushing, then bed. It doesn't see...

My mother triggers me

I just need to vent. My mom triggers tf out of me with my child. She does things that aren’t okay with me and acts like it’s okay when she’s not my child’s mother.

Nap time

What do you do with nap time if they fall asleep in the car for 10 min before you get home. He normally goes down for a nap around 1. We ran to the store and he fell asleep around 12. He woke up when we got home and had lunch. I want him to take a good nap. Scared to put him down and he won’t sleep. lol

We are all in this together surely you’ve been through similar or will go through similar in regard to tantrums, baby crying/ fussing in public etc. As a first time mum I could never imagine myself now or even before I was a mum to stare at another mum or whisper. It a part of life b...

Danger nap

My LG was up most of the night due to a cough and teething and napped for 3 hours from 9am to 11am. She had a 25 minute nap at 5 because we just couldn’t keep her up any longer but she wasn’t tired enough for a nap at say 2-3. I’m now panicking that she won’t have enough sleep pressure to carry her through the night...
