Solids!

I have a question ladies. When did you move your kids to bigger solids? My daughter is almost 7 months old now and I wanted to know when I could start feeding her different solids like eggs or bread, etc. She’s had the purées, but I’m scared to give her anything else and I don’t exactly know when I should.

Am I in the wrong?

Saturday my fiancés family decided to pierce my four year old daughter’s ears without my permission, when I was at work. I had previously stated to my fiancé that I would LIKE to have her ears pierced, however, at the doctor’s office and in my presence. He took this simply as “She wants our daughter’s ears pierced.”...

I hate this feeling!!!

Today was the final day of soccer tryouts at my son's school. He made the list to try out again for the 3rd time due to 35 kids trying out for the team. The coach could only choose 20. He made the team last year but I noticed there were not many kids that tried out last year. He did an excellent job last year and ha...

Partners cat pisses me offff

Daily calories for 12 month old

Hi, Do you all count calories that your baby consumed to make sure they’re reaching the daily goal? I am losing my mind trying to get my boy to eat as much as he’s “supposed” to throughout the day and it’s really taking a toll on my mental health! He consumes 20 oz whole milk per day (sometimes an oz or two more, s...

BLW?

Is it bad that I prefer to spoon feed my baby rather than do blw? I’ve tried but she just doesn’t seem interested. I’m worried she’ll end up missing out on skills that come with blw. At least I know she’s definitely eating what I give her.

Is this okay or a red flag.

Maybe it’s my personal opinion but I just witnessed my neighbor continuously holding his young adopted daughter from behind. He was “teaching” her how to throw a ball for their dog but her butt was right in his groin area tight. I never seen anyone teach someone to throw a ball that way. Nor do I feel it is necessar...

My older sister is coming home with her first baby soon maybe tonight or tomorrow. I’m at her house with my two kids.

Can your 3 year old draw?

My son just does scribbles but I saw some pictures that one of the girls in his preschool had done and she’d drawn planes and people. My son could never do that!
