    Is it better to give my baby as much breast milk as possible in 6 months or space it out in smaller amounts for a year?

    @kyleeak The WHO’s guidelines on breastfeeding are broad and always skew towards under developed countries to account for people who don’t have access to safe drinking water and nutrient dense food. Of course if you live in rural Africa or Indian (where one of the leading causes of death is...

    @joannayang My son was born at 28 weeks weighing just under 1kg. He was given a hep b vaccine at birth, 2 months, 4 months, 6 months and he had a booster at 12 months. This is standard practice in Australia. Our neonatologist essentially said to us there’s no risks in getting the vaccine but...

    The March to 1 Nap: A Practical Guide to Baby Nap Transitions (4m-18m-ish)

    @knowledgeisnotignorant Thank you soo much!! I’m feeling soo much better about this now. Yeah he’s really a champ sleeper, he started sleeping through 8-8 from 8 weeks old and never looked back. Plus he’s an ex 28weeker and I’ve read a lot that NICU babies can be terrible sleepers. So we...

    The March to 1 Nap: A Practical Guide to Baby Nap Transitions (4m-18m-ish)

    @knowledgeisnotignorant Oh no, I think I’ve done something wrong. We did 1 nap on Friday Saturday and Sunday and it seemed to work really well. He kept waking up close to 8am so I thought we’d keep doing it as long as he woke late. Friday: wake 7:45. Nap 11:45-2:10. Bed 7:15. Saturday: wake...

    @knowledgeisnotignorant Hey r/omegaxx19 - i hope you’re having a nice weekend and if it’s Mother’s day where you- happy Mother’s day! I know it’s been a while since I first posted this! It probably took 6-8 weeks but we finally settled into 1 nap. In hindsight, I probably should have just...

    The March to 1 Nap: A Practical Guide to Baby Nap Transitions (4m-18m-ish)

    @knowledgeisnotignorant Hello, me again :) I have a question… we haven’t tried 1 nap yet as he’s actually been waking earlier and earlier the past week (yesterday 6:45, today 6:10… I do not get him before 7:30) so I haven’t had a chance to try 1 nap on a day where he wakes at 8am or later…and...

    @knowledgeisnotignorant Thank you thank you so much for your reply!! I was thinking today maybe you should start a subscription group haha :D honestly, I think I just needed someone to validate what I was thinking and tell me it’s ok to try 1 nap / it’s not too early. He’s always been such a...

    Time to Drop to One Nap?

    @c2coldsteel06 I’d try moving to 1 nap! Try it out on the weekend when you’re going to be home for the day. You’ve definitely maxed out 2 naps and he’s probably got a lot of sleep debt by now. They sleep more on 1 nap so it should allow him to catch up after a week or so. We literally tried 1...
