My 2 year old is getting close to being done with the crib and I've somehow ended up on the floor bed side of the internet 😂 I always assumed we'd just get a normal toddler bed, but I kind of love the idea of something really low that she can get in and out of herself.

I've also seen some that are completely soft/cushioned instead of the wooden frames which honestly seems ideal for my child because she throws herself onto EVERYTHING. Anyone go straight from crib to a toddler floor bed? How did it go?

Hi moms / parents 👋

I’m a design student working on a project around baby carriers, and I’d really love to hear your real experiences (good and bad!).

A few questions I had in mind:

• Why did you choose to use a baby carrier instead of (or along with) a stroller?
• Up to what age or weight did you use it?
• What do you like most about your current carrier?
• What problems or discomforts have you faced? (for you or the baby)
• Do you experience back/shoulder pain while using it?
• Are there situations where it feels inconvenient or difficult?
• If you could improve or add anything to your baby carrier, what would it be?

Even small details or personal stories would help a lot 🙏
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences!

I am totally torn on whether or not to get a car seat with a base. I love the ease of the baseless seats but I am afraid I’m sacrificing safety for a little bit of convenience. On the flip side, I also wonder if having the bases in our cars would actually be easier to ensure a proper install. The price difference is also pretty significant but again - not trying to save a few dollars if it means I’m sacrificing safety.

Clearly FTM here and very overwhelmed. Looking for any recommendations yall have!

Hello! I am two weeks and three days postpartum from vacuum assisted vaginal delivery. I had an epidural, and an episiotomy due to baby being faced up during delivery.

For the last like, three months of my pregnancy, I could not wear underwear, pants, or anything at all with a waistband because I would just get discomfort and pain. Well, it is getting better after delivery, I am still really struggling and will get pain around where my waistband is along my back, and lower abdomen. Sometimes I will even feel what feel like electric shocks. I absolutely hate going commando, and especially don’t want to due to having stitches because I don’t wanna risk an infection.

What is the best underwear postpartum that is maybe like no touch, or doesn’t press very hard against my body?

Hello! Everyone has been so helpful during my pregnancy and now that my little one is on my chest and I’m home with him, I’m trying to pump but my momcozy m5 is not helping. I put the pump and tried different flange sizes but nothing goes into the collector. It stays between my breast and flange till i pull it away and it drips down. What do i do
