    Considering baby bjorn mini but not sure if it’s right for me!

    @wrshamblinjr My husband mostly used the mini and he’s still looking for a replacement, we have ordered and are waiting on a Lenny Lamb onbuhimo. I use a combination of the Tula Explore, Minimonkey, and Cococho. I like having a variety as they do put pressure/weight on different areas so...

    Considering baby bjorn mini but not sure if it’s right for me!

    @wrshamblinjr The BB mini was great until about 15 lbs, now it’s really not ergonomic at all and really puts a lot of pressure on the shoulders/traps. So I would avoid that one if you’re concerned about growing out of it too quickly.

    Starting to refuse 2nd nap on 2/3/4

    7 month old and sleep trained about 6 weeks ago. Shortly after sleep training he dropped from 3 naps to 2. The last several weeks, 2/3/4 (or often more like 2/3/3.5) was working well for us. He’d generally give 3 hours total nap time and 12-13 hours overnight. For the last 5 days or so he’s...

    I seem to have low Iorn, but my Doctor didn’t say anything to me about it

    @jingshenbianxi You’re fine. Iron and transferrin on their own are poor indicators of total body iron stores. Transferrin saturation is more helpful. And a normal ferritin, in the absence of acute illness or injury, makes iron deficiency unlikely. Some iron supplements here won’t hurt but...
