Can someone explain to me what a cap nap is please?

I see this word floating about all the time and google is not being exactly clear on the definition.

Travel pram

Going on our first little holiday abroad in may to Spain and I’m struggling to find a good travel pram, I want a one that isn’t too expensive but has a sunshade that comes far enough down so he can nap in the pram without getting burnt 🥰

Transitioning to 1 nap

Has anyone done this yet? I feel as though my baby might be ready for this as she’s wanting a later morning nap and then refuses her afternoon nap

16-Month Speech

Hi everyone, we recently had a visit with a health visitor and my son scored quite low in the speech portion. I’m not necessarily worried yet because he babbles and talks a lot but just doesn’t say many real words. He says “moo”, “quack quack” “woof woof” and “hi or hiya” along with “dada”. He has only put two words...

Help sleeping?¿

My son just will not sleep on his back at all no matter what we try. Is it normal? I know the health visitor and midwife says it’s not baby safe but what can I do if he just won’t. He just prefers front sleeping. Anyone else experiencing this?

2 year old talking

My son is 2 years (almost 4 months) at home he speaks in 3 word sentences. He will talk to people he knows but if we go out and a kid says hi to him he will just either hide behind me or stare at them. He doesn’t want to talk to other people or kids unless he really knows them

Has anyone successfully removed it around this age or ...

Cradle Cap Fix

For anyone who might need to know: the FridaBaby DermaFrida cradle cap kit is INCREDIBLE. We used it with regular Baby Dove shampoo and it worked SO WELL. I wish I took some before and after pictures 😫

Baby sleep on demand

Anyone else who lets their baby sleep on demand? If I see any sleep clues I’ll put him to bed, so he can have anywhere from 2-4 naps a day and he’s over 8 months.

Same room - 6 month old & 2 year old

We’re going to be building our house but in the meantime in a two bed flat with two kids. To make it work we’re thinking about making very secure bunk beds for them. Any suggestions/recommendations/thoughts about two little people sharing a room at this age? Transition may be tricky to start but think it could work ...

Newborn travel pram

What is the best travel pram suitable for a newborn? All I can find is babyzen yoyo which seems a ridiculous amount of money to spend for one holiday. But also don’t fancy taking our bulky ocarro with us 🫠🫠
