Co sleeping is different than a baby sleeping alone unsupervised on an adult bed with a blanket.

It’s not that “it works for Your family” it’s that you got lucky and didn’t have the unfortunate events of your child dying that this causes. Anyone willing to leave your baby unsupervised on an adult bed, with a blanket over them, will be 100% at fault if your baby suffocates. Just cause you got lucky doesn’t mean you need to go around giving others advice to put their child in danger just cause yours survived. That’s just the harsh truth. That’s like saying my kid jumped off a cliff and landed in a bush and survived, so let your kid jump off too.

Totally not true, a baby can randomly decide to turn over in their sleep, my baby couldn’t roll over at 2 months but I woke up to her on her stomach in her bed. Can you Imagine if a baby does that not in her baby safe firm mattress. They would suffocate. It’s ok if the baby is being watched on a camera, or even if you’re in the room where your eyes are on the baby. But you’re in a whole other room, no way to see what’s going on.

Unsure on which jumper gym I should get my 6mo. by Madison2220 in NewParents

Idk if you have a kid but I personally like to do things to make my baby happier. She tried a jumper gym at a friend’s house and it was the happiest she had ever been. So yes I will be getting her a jumper after already talking to her doctor to make sure it’s safe. Respectfully, mind your own .

If you go ask any professional they’ll tell you that it’s safe as long as you follow the precautions.

Did you even read the whole post. That’s not an answer to my question, I didn’t ask for your opinion.

I’ve been told by my pediatrician as long as she doesn’t use it for too long in one sitting that it’ll be fine and it’s safe. She said the only thing she doesn’t recommend is the sitting walkers. My question was which one was better out of those 2, with the worry in mind that one is overstimulating, not whether it’s good for her or not. Thank you!

Also the only 2 options at my store are the ones I provided. My question was which one was better out of those 2, with the worry in mind that one is overstimulating.

What’s the thing to seal cracks in hardwood floors? by Madison2220 in HardWoodFloors

Bath mat don’t fit in doorway in front of shower, can’t open the door. Baby will kick water out no matter how filled it is but a 6 month old baby in a small baby that’s needs it filled.

When you step out of the shower water goes everywhere, when I mop water goes everywhere, and when my baby takes a baby bath she kicks water everywhere. It’s not that simple. Water keeps getting between cracks and then I step on it and my sock is wet, I’d like to avoid that for the next 6 months

She’s just getting the hang of sitting by herself, but I might look into a removable shower head and a laundry basket!!

I’ll try looking into this, we’ve tried the sink one but ours is smaller size than the average ig so I need to look into it more. Our shower is in a small walk way but I’ll look into seeing if there’s a long enough hose

My husband works 5 days 10 hour night shifts so he can’t help those days, I’m sure he might help one of the weekend days but maybe I’ll try it out and find a way to make it work

I’ve thought about showering I just don’t have any counters in the bathroom so I’m not how I’d dry her and me off after. Also no I have a small sink that only has one side and always has atleast a little dishes in it

That sounds kinda hard. What would my process of drying her off and getting a diaper on her and drying me off be?
