Gagging

Anyone else’s 10-month old gagging themselves to the point they throw up?? Our daughter does it daily and we tell her no or grab her hands to try and stop her and she thinks it is the funniest thing and continues to do it; even if we ignore her she does it. How do I make it stop!!! Sincerely, a mom who is tired of...

First words

Hi everyone ! My baby is currently 13 months old. Curious to see when your little one started saying more words? Right now all he says is “papa” all day long and occasionally a “mama.” He babbles plenty during the day, but no actual words. Should I be worried ?

Crib?

Anyone’s LO still in their crib? We had a toddler bed but she kept climbing in and out of it and I faced it toward the wall but it became a hazard because she kept climbing on it trying to get out. So we have her on the lowest crib setting. Anyone else?

Stopping feeding

Would anyone think less of me if I gave up breastfeeding at 9 months? I want to do it as long as I possibly can and was really aiming for the year mark. However my LG got her bottom 2 teeth at 4 months and over the past month now has her top 2 fully out at 8 months. It's getting incredibly painful and she bites down...

Still not sleeping through

My 2 year and 7 month old baby is still not sleeping through the night. She has always been a bad sleeper and has slept through only a few times since she’s been born. Whether she’s in her own bed or my bed, she still wakes up numerous times in the night. Is anyone else going through the same? Is there anything I ca...

Mom Guilt

I get so frustrated putting my 19 week old baby down to sleep, especially at night. He nurses, falls asleep, and just as I go to put him down, he wakes up again. Then it takes another 30 minutes at least for him to actually go to bed. I felt guilty tonight when I thought to myself, “I can’t do this every night. I do...

Thrusting?

Is anyone else’s toddler (girl)- for lack of better words- humping/thrusting things? Mostly at night, she will thrust and grunt her stuffies for 5-10 minutes before falling asleep. I know it’s normal for kids to do that as self soothing. Just want to see if anyone else is experiencing this?

Feeding and crying

My 1 month old baby has been having his feeds but the last oz n half he will drink and then stop and cry. We make sure to burp him throughout the feed just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this or might know why he is doing it and how to help?
