How did you get your baby to roll from front to back? I use a nursing pillow for tummy time as he screams if I do it with anything closer to the floor but I can’t see him trying to Roll he just pushes himself with his feet. Is this normal for 3 months or should he be closer to being able to roll?

Hi all, I have an 11 month old not pregnant but for fun what sibling names would you pair with it? Boys and girls. I love nature based and literary names with strong name meanings, my partner is more traditional so it has to pass his veto test lol.

I’m 39+5 and the last couple of days I’ve been having to go to the toilet more and I’m clearing myself out quite a bit. As of yesterday and today, I’ve been nonstop feeling sick.
