    Older baby too big for C curve

    @ashleychristine8 At nearly 7 months old, but 96th percentile for height, I’ve found sleeping on my back is helpful when my side is no longer comfortable . Babe also doesn’t need to be touching me all night so it makes it easier. I’ve never woken up facing away from her and I still keep my arm...

    Best Hygiene Products for Newborns

    @hurtbygod Seconding Branch Basics - we have used it for wel over a year and have been very happy. We switched to Millie Moon diapers for this baby (2nd girl) and they are LUXURY. So, so soft! OP - I would personally advise against subscription based diapers. That seems stressful and very...

    Taking a Poll

    @g19shooter My baby girl got a terrible raw diaper rash within her first month. She “sharts” a lot so I wouldn’t know she had pooped. We’ve since figured it out, but I felt like a terrible mother.

    Realistically, is your newborn (7 weeks) going down for naps every 3 hrs after their feed?

    @valerie22 At 7 weeks I wouldn’t be worrying about sleep this much. I’m following cues this time around (second time mom) and it has relinquished a massive amount of stress. My postpartum experience has been SO much easier and enjoyable since I’m not stressing about sleep. If baby is tired/fussy...

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

    @tracyqueen There’s no way I would do that. Anecdotally, I went into labor on my own at 40+6, water broke before first contraction. There was meconium in my waters. That added stress was not worth it for me. Ended up in a c section (my choice) after 24 hours of labor that was not progressing and...

    Night weaning reassurance needed

    @ryanthenapster This is my goal! We’ve night weaned and only have nurse to sleep and early morning nurse now. I’m happy with it so not looking to change, I hope our weaning process is the same where is just happens slowly over time.

    Can a baby be 'too attached'?

    @mh86 This made me LOL and is so true. They’re strangers to her - of course she’s not going to like sitting in their lap.

    Night weaning reassurance needed

    @bandit That’s amazing! I’m so happy that you are also getting better sleep. It is SO important! For bedtime snack, I normally will do it before or after bath time. Sometimes it’s just some whole milk while reading books before I nurse her. We also don’t do a bath every night so do whatever...

    Night weaning reassurance needed

    @bandit I don’t think you’re doing anything wrong. I also strongly disagree with “if they’re upset it’s not right” comment. Our children will have big emotions, it is up to us to co-regulate with them, not just leave them to “figure it out”. It is ok to have boundaries. I would say if the crying...
