Bottles

Need some advice with bottles, when my little one first went on to formula I was using Tommee tippee bottles but so much was coming out of his mouth he was getting drenched every bottle, we went onto mam bottles he was doing great on them.

Recently his been clicking on the bottle and has really really struggled with trapped wind. I brought some size 2 teats, he settled on it but has started clicking again like he can’t drink it fast enough.

Size 3 teats say 4months+ his only 2 months. Can I start them early? Or does anyone have any other advice

I would say give it a go! I think they’re only guidelines! I know a baby who is 16 weeks and still on 1, mines 9 weeks and on 2. Just whatever works for your baby!

My little boy went on to MAM size 2 teats at 7 weeks cause he would just get angry at the flow of size 1 as he wasn’t getting it fast enough. Ages on the teats are just a guideline and all babies like different flows better so I would definitely try size 3 and see how it goes!

Move him up, keep the 2. If it’s not working switch back to 2 then you have the 4+ ready and waiting xx

Omg mine does this and is really screaming when she feeds. She constantly clicks when she feeds and I’ve been trying to research it. Is it because she can’t latch onto it or something? How has yours been since moving the teat up a size?

his doing better on size 2’s I’ve tried size 3’s and they are way to fast for him so I’m a bit of a loss. The clicking isn’t as bad on 2’s I think my little boy is clicking because his sucking to hard and not getting enough

Wdy think of this for a toddler to learn word construction?

I'm open to anything else to start teaching him to read and write. He's 3!

Vanilla extract

Has anyone used alcohol free vanilla in their babies formal to help them drink?
I’m 100% sure my baby refuses her bottles as she doesn’t like the taste of it!

Just anxious to try it, don’t want her to get used to it and then refuse bottles again after two weeks of using (correct me if I’m wrong but I’ve read you use it for 2 weeks max)

TIA 🙂

Do men really enjoy fellatio?

Been together more than 10 years, but it's been a while since he even seemed remotely interested in me getting on my knees, or vice versa so to speak. I think it was once last year. Must be something I am doing wrong 🤔. Generally everything else in that department is great and we have two young kids with no extra support, so it's quite surprising we can't keep our hands off each other but may need to try new things. It's basically 2 positions each time with some foreplay.

Car seat crying

My 6 month old PANICS the second I put him in a car seat and screams, cries, chokes and recently even projectile vomited on a 14 minute drive. It’s gotten to the point I don’t even bring him out unless it’s to a doctors appointment. I’m a stay at home mom with no family in my state and it has been very isolating. We’ve tried 3 different car seats with no improvement. Has anyone had a baby who hated the car seat? Any advice? This started at 3 months. I will add it does seem worse when he’s tired. He does cry on every trip though. He only contact naps and co sleeps so he reaches for me and will not sleep in the car seat.

Sex post C section

Hi ladies I’m 4 weeks 5 days postpartum and I had a C section. I’m not bleeding properly anymore just some brownish discharge stuff that starts on and off. I’d like to do the deed with my partner; is it okay to do so or shall I wait the full 6 weeks. I feel up for it but also worried because the advice is 6-8 weeks.

Can someone pls help i keep making this post and nobody is responding

My boyfriend booked a trip for us to go to mexico for a week as my push present. I have severe anxiety leaving my 7 month old with my mom. I know she will be in good hands but she’s exclusively breast fed for the most part but accepts bottles just fine. i have all my pumping parts packed and will pump when baby normally eats but i don’t want baby to forget me or have latch issues when i return!! any mommas ever experience this?
