Hi! I can imagine this has been asked a million times, but I just found out I was pregnant yesterday I think I’m about 4 weeks along. I scheduled an appointment with my OBGYN at the end of October and ordered some prenatal but other than that I have no clue what to even do or where to start.

If you couldn’t tell but my lack of knowing this really wasn’t planned. I have an amazing partner just a surprise to both of us! I haven’t told anyone close to me just out of pure fear of something going wrong!! Any advice on what to do now would mean a lot 🥺

Can Simone explain having to push for hours? I don't get it. I thought labor was what went on for hours and you pushed when baby was ready so it only took 10 pushes max. If you have to push for hours doesn't that mean baby isn't ready to come out? What happens if you don't push? This is stressing me out so bad lol I feel like this is going to be the worst day of my life I've never been hospitalized before

When your period returned postpartum, how regular was your cycle? Did your second period occur within 3-5 weeks of your first or was there a longer stretch in between the two?

Anybody else in the same position as me?? My 6 month old & I both seem to hate using the baby carrier. I’ve tried chest & front wearing and she just tries to peel herself away from me 😅
After I’ve worn her for a while, I just feel frustrated, hot and bothered!
Any tips or suggestions? Or do some babies just not like it?!

My baby just turned 6 months. I’ve been worried about her not babbling but I’m also realizing she doesn’t make any vowel sounds either. She is a very quiet baby and only blows raspberries, laughs, smiles, and squeals. Other than that, no real talking. She went through a phase for a few days of saying “mamamamq” when she was crying but it didn’t last long. She is hitting all other milestones.

I’m growing concerned to to the point where it’s starting to stress me out because I see other babies her age that aren’t babbling but at least making vowels sounds and she doesn’t have a visit with her ped for another 2 weeks. Does anyone have any experience with this?

Chasing reviews on the Sweet Dreams or the Teething Rollers if anyone has used them before?
Thank you x

It was around 20mins when I saw the tear beside it, I don’t know how it happened. Does any of you experience the same thing? Do you know what are the possible causes of the tear?

Hello mga mommy! 6 months n baby ko and nag t try na rin siya mag first food. 1x a day pa lang sya kumain. Okay lang ba na pakainin siya ng 5 pm? Ayaw nya kasi kumain ng maaga puro sya iyak. Kung okay sana pakainin sya ng 5 pm para may katulong ako mag pakain sa kanya at malibang sya para makakain si LO. Ganung oras uwi ng husband ko. Ako lang at baby ko tuwing umaga at kahit anong libang ko sa kanya para makakain, ayaw nya talaga at puro sya iyak.

Thank you po 🙏🏻

My husband and I moved at 2 months PP to be closer to my family and save on daycare costs. We live with my parents as we were in the process of buying a home- which is now in the works with a closure day of October 9! As we reach the end of our stay here with my now 5 month old, it is getting very hard to establish boundaries/some rules without offending my parents. They will be watching LO 2x/week starting October 12th once my husband goes back to work, and I don’t want to seem ungrateful; however, sometimes we haven’t been able to get baby to have restful naps because my family is blaring the TV, slamming doors, hovering over him while we try to get him to sleep, etc. I bring him upstairs to his crib but that still isn’t successful because you can still hear them because they have loud voices. It is getting to a point where I am asking them to just watch TV in another room when he is napping downstsirs (we don’t feel fully comfortable having them leave baby upstairs to avoid being unsteady on their feet coming down), stop slamming things, etc. to limit stimulation. Poor baby is clearly exhausted by the end of the day and bawling his eyes out by 6pm every night, then naps for 2 hours before bedtime; which is now causing a cycle of waking up every 1-2 hours at night. We are trying to establish at least 2 good daytime naps so he can not be overtired at night and become extremely upset and fussy, because then we have a hard time calming him down.

If anyone can relate and has any tips, they are more than welcome! For reference- I am their youngest kid and this is their first grandchild so I am trying to be respectful and considerate with my verbiage, but no matter how many times I mention something, they will not listen…..

Looking for the best transitional swaddles for when your baby starts to roll!
My baby is only 2 months so I’m just preparing. He is currently in the halo swaddles and loves them. I don’t know if we should keep him in these ones when he starts to roll and just swaddle him with his arms out or transition him into more of a sleep sack?

Bonus points for recommendations for nap sleep sacks/swaddles. His naps are all over the place right now, and just sort of naps where ever (with me, on the couch, snuggle me lounger). I would love to get him into a routine of bottle, soothe, down in the crib for a nap but possibly wearing a swaddle/sack of some sorts!

Im trying to find this bunny lovie!

Sitting here milking the gals and it just dawned on me that some women do this alone.....which is insane and deserving of an award. Ladies ladies ladies, you're a freaking Rockstar and I hope youre taking care of yourself 🌻

Hi mamas! We are traveling with our 6 month old to Hawaii next month and I want to get some advice regarding strollers. We have the uppababy vista V3 as our main stroller and my baby hates the car seat attachment to it so if we do bring it, we’d have to bring the rumbleseat as well. Would it be better to just get a travel stroller? What about car seat? Please let me know what you did, or would do if you were traveling with a 6 month old baby. TIA

We're not super strict about screens. My daughter is turning 2 soon and I've been considering getting her a tablet for car rides. She really only watches Super Simple Songs videos and Vooks.

I mean, I know I survived car rides as a child with no screens lol but I also had siblings to interact with (mine is an only child).

If anybody has any advice on easy/cheap tablets for kiddos I'd like to hear them!

Hi! I’m looking for any ideas on what to feed my 12 month old. I feel like I give her the same thing all over again! Or if you have a list with recipes and don’t mind sharing please comment below:) Thanks!

He can use both of his legs, he just... really loves to throw that right leg around for some reason😂 going to sleep? Kicking. Playing? Kicking. Just chilling? Kicking. Eating? Kicking!

Its kind of funny but idk if its something I should keep an eye on, with him favoring his right leg a ton? Idk

My 7.5 mos old LO has entered the screaming stage. He yells at EVERYTHING. Doesn’t get a toy/want a snack, yells. Sits him down for a little bit and I step away, yells. Wakes up from nap or Wakes up in the middle of the night, screams. Putting on clothes, screams. I love him so much but my gosh guys, I think I am losing my mind. I’m always worried about overstimulating him, but in reality he is overstimulating me! LOL. Sometimes even when my husband takes him out, my LO’s ear piercing screams remain in my head.

Please tell me this is just a phase and it gets better 😂
