    I’m so tired of hearing what other people did/ are doing with their babies

    I’m so tired of hearing what other people did/ are doing with their babies

    @chikku4u I disagree. There is nothing wrong with doing most of these things with a baby. A 7 month old can go on long car trips just fine if the parents choose. It’s less normal to be home all the time and not go anywhere ever

    Type B (personality) parents

    @swe97 My advice is don’t make any plans before you’re actually in the situation. Everything goes out the window when you’re actually going through it. I just wing it and always have. Works great lol

    Pet Peeve On These Parenting Reddits..

    @jsphalford11 I agree. I love reading but I read for pleasure. A literary adventure. I refuse to pay $20-$30 to read a boring book about potty training or sleep or something when I can Google it and get advice there. Or ask people here for their first hand experience. The limited time I have for...

    WHY is my body expelling perfect babies? Devastated

    @lanternburning In the case of a shortened cervix, pelvic rest is usually recommended. It can cause a miscarriage or preterm birth in those situations

    Organic v Non Organic Laundry Detergent (Whole Foods)

    @gopolang What do you mean by “non-toxic?” For stuff like cleaning products - you need the “toxins” in order to kill bacteria. Most natural stuff isn’t strong enough to kill viruses and bacteria, which is the whole point of cleaning. It’s just cleaning dirt and grime off the surfaces. Bacteria...

    Trying for a baby as a young couple?

    @mightynameofjesus For sure. But biologically the brain stops growing at 25 so it’s more mature at that age. Ultimately you can have a baby whenever you want though. Regardless of other peoples opinions. But raising a child is not easy

    Trying for a baby as a young couple?

    @mightynameofjesus The human brain doesn’t stop developing until 25. So the person you are now is going to be different from the person you will be in 4 years (and more). Finish up your training first is my opinion.

    Trying for a baby as a young couple?

    @mightynameofjesus I’d wait. 9 years is a long time before you may be less fertile. I easily got pregnant at 32. Having a child is a huge responsibility, especially for someone your age

    Challenging my doctor’s potentially old school advice on solid food for baby

    @r3b0rn Is solid advice, though. Babies lose their iron stores and iron fortified infant cereal is the easiest and best way for them to get enough iron. Here’s a study that was done that concluded it is substantially reduced iron deficiency anemia in infants...

    First pregnancy : Am I the only one that has periods of doubt and fear that I'll miss my pre-child life?

    @lumpyspaceprincess Every new parent goes through this, it’s super normal! You’re going to miss parts of your pre-child life while also loving your new parent life. It ebbs and flows. I love being a mom more than not being one!

    Just learned that cash register receipts are FULL of BPA

    @danieldf Thank you for educating me! I thought it was like, cancer causing or something. I know all of these things are obviously not good and if you can avoid things with BPA then awesome, am I horrible if I’m not overly concerned about that? Like I just don’t feel like handling some receipts...

    Just learned that cash register receipts are FULL of BPA

    @al8115 Is this something people truly need to worry about? I’m not being sarcastic or snarky I’m just not really educated on this that well. It seems a little over the top to be worried about receipts but I truly have no idea what I’m talking about so if y’all need to educate me pls do

    Breech baby, planned C Section, any benefits of going into labor before C Section?

    @tracyqueen I would not push until 42 weeks. The longer you go past due the higher the risks are of stillbirth. The placenta starts to die off

    Formula Amount & Preterm Babies Question

    @christine19 5-6 oz is a lot for babies that young. We did 1-2oz when our preemie was a newborn. I think we stayed at 4oz until baby was like 5 months old.
