Bedtime

So my girl sleeps mostly through the night. She goes down about 6:30 and wakes up 6:30ish.
Just curious to know what time other 3 nearly 4 year olds go to bed at ?
Feel like 6:30 is too early, but because she’s been sleeping through I haven’t tried changing it. However due to summer coming I’d like to try and push bedtime back a little to give more evening time.

My little boy is almost 4 and his bedtime was around half 8 (that was bathed and in bed for then) but he often didn’t fall asleep till after 9 and was a stressful bedtime. I pushed it back to 9 and he goes easily.

It really depends on the child - if her bedtime is 6:30 you can always push their bedtime back half an hour and see what the impact is - you may find that the parks aren’t as busy in the evening and her bedtime of 6:30 isn’t leaving her left out of anything. But then this depends what you are planning to do with the additional evening time

My son (3 years old) hates sleeping, we started our negotiation at 7, put him a bed at 8, he sleeps at 8.30-8.40 . Wake up around 7 o’clock. Then after every 2/3 hours he called me 😭😭😭no nap too

My son is 3.8yrs old and goes to bed at 7pm. If he has a nap in the car i say goodbye to my evening because he will be wired till 9pm sometimes later. He wakes every morning at 6:30am sometimes 7am if he’s feeling generous and he used to sleep through from 6:30-7am but started waking 2-4times a night around 2.5yrs and only sleeps through once in a blue moon- we’re exhausted! Although he has slept through 2 nights in a row now but im not holding my breath for tonight! Thankfully my 7m old sleeps through mostly 😅

My 3 yrs 9m sleeps when she sleeps 😅 from birth we didn’t really have a routine as she never liked them/fall asleep. We tend to get her ready for bed between 8:30/9 and shell be down by 9:30 (usually) she comes to our room every night after 2/3 hours and sleeps until morning 🫣

When did you circumcise your baby?
If you DID NOT or DO NOT have a circumcised son DO NOT comment this post is not for you!

Did you wait a certain amount of time or have it done immediately?
Again respectfully, this is only for the parents who choose to do so.
opinions about how not necessary it is will not be appropriate for this post. Thank you in advance. 🩵

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?

Postpartum

I’m only 3 days postpartum (FTM) and already have extremely bad anxiety. I’m crying every night, as I think of another night of no sleep. My baby will not settle in his cot, he cries every moment we put him down unless in his chair rocker. So me and my partner are having to alternate after 3/4 hours of being awake with him downstairs. I’m trying everything to get him to settle. It’s a load of overwhelming stress. I’m 23, I was desperate for a baby and now I have one and feel completely useless. I miss it just being me and my partner.

I feel like just a milk cow

Hi I have a 16 day old via c section, I'm a FTM never having been around babies before as I am the youngest of my household and from a small family. My husband is fantastic with our little one. But ever since I've had the baby I just feel like the only thing I'm good for is producing milk. I feel disconnected from my husband like the only reason he's around is because am producing milk. We were having some issues before the baby and we're struggling it took a while to feel like he was onboard even though he said he was from the moment we found out. I dunno if I'm feeling like a spear part because I'm lacking confidence with baby or because I feel like he wouldn't mind being a single dad. Is this postpartum hormones or something else?

How long did it take for your child’s circumcision to heal and you could give him a bath?

I’ve just been wiping him down with a fiber wash cloth but I just wanted to know from others experience on how long it took

When does it get better?

I was crying on the phone with the perinatal mental health team today and the lovely lady, bless her, kept assuring me that it gets better. I kept telling her I hope so because people have been saying that since having my LO and it just feels like it keeps getting worse. She assured me it gets better....
