What are the best wagons for a little who doesn’t like to be in a stroller anymore?? The wonderfold looks amazing but maybe something a little bit more affordable

Stopping exclusively pumping breast milk

Hi all I think it’s come to a time I might have to stop pumping breast milk. This breaks my heart by I just can’t keep up with my little one’s demand. They want to feed every hour at the moment and cry as soon as I put them down so pumping while holding is not working. How can I do this slowly? We have already cut o...

Giggling?

My 9 month old doesn’t really giggle much. He can giggle and we’ve heard him do it but not much really gets him giggling. He has met every millstone so far, just wondering if anyone else has a late bloomer for giggling? Pic for tax

Kendamil

Hi, my wee boy is 4 months in a week today, we’ve been using kendamil since he was born but have been having issues trying to get it since then and I’m just getting so tired of it! Sometimes we can find so many tubs in one day and stock up (never buy more than 2 tubs from one shop cause I’d feel so bad 🤣) but…

Schedules/routines

Would anyone mind sharing what a typical day looks like with their little? My baby girl’s been unwell recently and it’s rocked our normal flow. Curious about what’s currently working for others - I.e times/types of naps, food, activities TIA :)

Still not crawling and refuses stubbornly!!

He was 10 months yesterday. And then he moans that he can't move. He *is* able to roll but refuses to do that too, so if he falls over from sitting he just cries and thinks he is stuck. The only way out is if I save him. I mean.. is it laziness or just not a clever one haha? Should I be worried...?

Using the TTC with stroller and bassinet to go downtown?

Hi just looking for some insight or advice for taking the ttc with my little one. I live in a suburb and was so use to just hoping on the bus to go downtown. I’m kinda hesitant since people have gotten a little bit nuttier and aggressive and I’m not sure how stroller friendly everything is. I just need to get out ...

30 Minute Naps

Do you end naps when baby wakes up after 30 mins or do you extend them? I need to have a re-jig of our schedule as it's no longer working so I'm curious what works for everyone else.

Breastfeeding (still!)

Anyone else still breastfeeding? I’m going on 17 months and my daughter still prefers breast milk to anything else. We are starting to wean and only nurse about 3-4 times per day now. I didn’t think much of it but lately people started to make comments at work about how I’m STILL pumping and I feel judged..

19 Months and he’s a lot.

Anyone else’s toddler a lot? My son is nuts. He beats his brother up, fights you if you take something from him like screams and is just wild. Anyone else? I am hoping he grows out of it.

What to do with my baby

My son is 6 weeks old and “wake windows” are just something he didn’t get the memo on. He sleeps at night (4hrs then feed, then 3hr and a feed, then about 21/2hrs and a feed) but doesn’t really sleep during the day. He maybe has one nap in the day and we really have to force it, but it usual only lasts between 30min...

Stroller under 6 months

Has anyone used a 6 month+ stroller in bassinet form for just under 6 month old? I saw someone on YouTube saying it’s ok as it’s so close to being flat, my baby is 4 months old but I’m reluctant to take our big pram on holiday.

The first year of Postpartum

I wish the first year of postpartum didn’t feel so lonely. I wish I wasn’t constantly feeling like I’m struggling to breathe. I wish that more people were understanding to how hard it is on the mom, even if she looks like she’s killing it. I know that it’s hard for Dads to but I just wish it wasn’t so damn hard for ...

Pissed off and tired

My baby has been in a sleep regression the past 3 days. I’ll spend 3 hour stretches trying to get him back to sleep failing multiple times to set him down. With crying wake ups in between his sleep cycles where I pat him back to sleep for 10 minutes or so. My boyfriend said he would get up with him last night since ...

Stroller recommendations

I am looking for recommendations for a light weight stroller/pram that has a good size basket but sits completely upright (not even slightly reclined) but does have the option to recline right back. My little boy hates being even a little bit reclined because he's nosie! Also, a good harness to hold him in and not ...
