I would have gone for it with my last child but he got it the week after I made my decision.
neither have mine have been particularly poorly with it but you never know how they’ll react and so I think if it helps them in anyway it’s worth it xMM just had her one year jabs and will be getting her chicken pox jab in a month or so. I didn’t appreciate until I looked into it just how much underlying stuff chicken pox can cause, from shingles to that thing Justin Bieber has that causes facial paralysis. Also if she gets it young (as in now) she won’t understand to not scratch and could cause damage. Ultimately I just don’t want her to suffer, it annoys me it’s not offered (even though last year government recommended all one year olds should receive it) because the cost of dealing with shingles etc is more than the £150 cost of the vaccine.
Just got 5 to agree to have it so yes. Potentially £300 well spent.
My 3y10mo had it when they turned 1. I did lots of research and decided I wanted them to have it due to how poorly I was with Chickenpox (I didn’t catch it until I was 16 and it was horrific!!)
Good for you!!
Not really sure, I think there are videos of people helping their kids do it, but mine has taken bloody ages to do any of it.
Well done you - encouraging him to get help is a good way forward. I hope you’re doing ok xxx
Might not be a stable sort of income but if you’re in the uk look at selling some outgrown baby clothes on vinted? That’s what I’ve been doing but heading back to work early as we just can’t afford it.
Well done, that's a huge step - and well done for putting a deadline on it so he can't keep delaying it! I hope he gets help but if not it's amazing that you know your worth and that you and baby wotsit will be fine without him
Have you got a baby carrier you can use? Some days the only way I can get things done is if baby fudge is in the carrier!Every time I try to put baby down he cries, even if he was sound asleep and snoring in my arms. Currently sat in my bra and pj bottoms, I've not eaten breakfast, there is a pile of laundry bigger than me that needs sorting and I feel a migraine coming on. He's been fed and winded, has a clean nappy, had his tummy medicine, why's he being such a head?!
Trust me, the laundry will wait. You can paw through it to find what you need when you need it! There will come a day where you can put him down and walk away whilst he carries on sleeping. He's about 5/6 weeks right? He still thinks he's part of you and needs the comfort of being near you. This too shall pass xEvery time I try to put baby down he cries, even if he was sound asleep and snoring in my arms. Currently sat in my bra and pj bottoms, I've not eaten breakfast, there is a pile of laundry bigger than me that needs sorting and I feel a migraine coming on. He's been fed and winded, has a clean nappy, had his tummy medicine, why's he being such a head?!
I have but he hates it. Which is weird considering he's currently asleep on my chest so it's not like he'd be in a different position. Swear he's just trolling me now.
Yeah, 6 weeks now. Would be good to be able to at least get one wash on, I've run out of clean pants
Normally I'm quite happy to have all the cuddles but I'm getting hangry we’ve had a few bumps and bruises along the way but they do get more stable ! What is it she’s banging her head on? can you try baby proof the area a little bit ?
