My son is also 9 months and not crawling, i was starting to get worried because he would just sit in the same spot i left him…..not anymore! He rolls and gets in crawling position and someway somehow he gets where he wants its so reassuring and unbelievably cute ☺️

Nap schedules

What does your baby's nap schedule look like? Mine is only taking 1 a day around 10 for 2ish hours and I really think it's making her not sleep at night as well🥴I have tried putting her down for a second nap, but she just recently learned to stand in the crib so she just instantly does that and cries until I go get her even though she is obviously tired. Doesn't fight the first nap though

My daughter didn’t get her first tooth until just before her first birthday. She’s been teething forever, but they have taken so long to come in. I hear it’s better because the teeth are exposed to less. 🤷‍♀️

Teething or sick??

Hey mamas,Looking for your opinions. Our almost 9 month old woke up on Wednesday with a giant blowout, she had a low grade temp of 100.4 that day that was gone by Wednesday evening. Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday she’s has on and off diarrhea and blowouts of soft poop. She’s not been very interested in solid foods and she typically LOVES food! She still breastfeeding just fine. I can just tell she’s uncomfortable but I don’t know if it’s teething or illness? She hasn’t had a fever. She also already has 4 teeth ( all front teeth) Has anyone dealt with this when it comes to teeth???

My LO is currently seeing the doctor cuz he’s had diarrhea for a week. Yesterday his energy dropped and he became a fuss ball when he’s usually very happy and bright. I got the same bug a few days ago and I’m still recovering. A friend of mine on the opposite coast had a stomach bug go thru her whole family 2 weeks ago. Seems like it’s going around

Baby is sick 😥

My 8th month old has had an on and off low grade fever, the heights being of 100.4, has a bit of a cough,Is congested and she’s also teething. We have alternated Tylenol, children’s Motrin, I also have the humidifier going. Is there anything else I could do to make her feel better?

How to get baby to go to bed earlier

I’m going back to work soon and need to wake up early in the morning. So far my nine month old is refusing to go to sleep and last couple days have been going to bed at 10. She usually wakes up at about 8. I give her a bath and make sure she has a full tummy but all she wants to do is play!

How us she napping throughout the day. I try to not let my son nap after 4 pm. He usually goes to bed at 7 pm and wakes around 7 am. He naps between 9-10 am and 1:30-3 pm. Ideally.

Christmas

I know it’s not even Halloween yet but I’m trying to do some early shopping.. 😅 what are you guys getting baby for Christmas? Or does anyone have any ideas?

My 4 year old is autistic, so I’ve found that she really enjoys the same toys as baby sister. So, we’re getting them a join toy..an indoor slide and ball pit, and doing as another commenter said with something you need, something to read, something to wear, and something you want. I got this for my (will be 11 old’s) something you want. No idea what rondo for the rest yet. 😂

Hold in a squat position above potty/toilet/sink, what ever is comfortable for you, when you notice them trying.

2 under 2. What else should I buy?

Mamas, i need some help. I got a sleep deprived mama brain going on I have a son, 8.5months old. (01/29/21)I am 2 months pregnant. Right now baby sleeps in his crib.We have one crib. One pack and play. Should i buy another crib? Or buy another pack n play? The pack n play i have now ill be using as an actual playpen for my oldest, so i cant really use that one for new baby. I know ill need another carseat, diapers, and if its a girl some new clothes. But what else should i have two of?Being that i have a baby whose 8m old i already have alot of stuff coveres. (Baby tub, toiletries, bottles, etc) Also i have 5 boys already. Sooo.....im thinking that this one will also be a boy! Lol. If not ill get some girl clothes and maybe some girls swaddles but honestly i have so many swaddles already that i would prob just use, boy or not. Lol. So what am i missing? What will make life a little easier to have or to have 2 of. (My kiddos are all boys- 17 yrs, 14 yr old twins, 5 year old, 8 month old) Unfortunately before i knew i was pregnant i donated my everyway soother swing and infant glider swing. Still in shock that i got pregnant with my paraguard IUD. I used iy before for YEARS without a single hiccup. Lol. But this time i have it for 5months and bam. Im part of the 1% club lol.

Sad that we’re done with babies

Husband and I are so very blessed to have 2 beautiful children and we decided our little girl who was born in Jan-21 would be our last.He’s now started the process of getting a vasectomy and I feel really weird about it. I don’t even think I really want another, but I can’t help feeling this sadness when I think of it being a definite no. It’s hard to explain, is this just a natural feeling of letting go or does it mean something in me does actually want to try again. I can’t decide whether to put a stop to it all, or if that would be daft as I’m actually very happy with my 2 beautiful babies and may never actually want another 🤔Can anyone relate? x

We have two beautiful children (4 years old and 9 months old) and my husband had a vasectomy a few months ago. I was so relieved when he had it done (I’ve been pregnant six times and it’s been really hard), but every once in a while I look at my baby and I’m sad that he’s growing up. I know I’m done with being pregnant but I love my babies. If you are unsure, you can always wait. I’m 100% sure a vasectomy was the right choice, but I still miss my little newborn. The third trimester were the two happiest times for me, so it’s ok to miss that.

Best baby food?

True!!

Do I take a test?

Asking here because I feel like you ladies might actually have an answer? I haven’t had a period since having my LO especially since I’m breastfeeding. So there’s no AF to not show up and give me the clue that I should test/that I should trust a digital/etc. I’m not ttc but I have a weird feeling I should test? I tried to take one but it wasn’t very clear. (Indent? VFL? 🤷🏼‍♀️) so should I take another? A digital? If you are now pregnant again, how did you know before you got a positive??
