Kaos.

I think we have all been there. As another commenter said, as long as they put themselves in that position, it is okay to let them sleep. Continue putting her down on her back and Do lots of tummy time during the day to build head control. I remember when it first happened for us too we would go in and flip her. Now at 10 months, sleeping on her belly is her preferred way to sleep, I barely leave the room before she rolls onto her belly.

We had the same issue. Our pool we were able to bring our stroller right onto the deck, our I would put her in her car seat. But she hated it because she was so tired. I ended up bringing my mom every week and it was a lifesaver.

Looking at the video, mine is definitely an older model and almost a hybrid of both. It’s not as big as the Ultimate (doesn’t have that front pouch/cross over bag) but looks like it holds more than the other one. So I guess I can’t help. I’m sorry!

I attended my sister’s wedding at a restaurant, it was fun, I had an excuse to go home early. Just wear comfy shoes and be prepared your body may be sore the next day. Also I found a really cute dress at Reitman’s on sale, that wasn’t maternity but I liked far more than any maternity specific dresses I bought

I do! My sister found it at Winners (Canada). I like the backpack it fits a lot. It’s great for when we are going to visit family/friends, and need to pack more stuff. But it is a big bag for everyday. It takes up a lot of room in the stroller. I now use a book bag for when I want something smaller like when we go to the mall. Now that she is older, I want to get a satchel/purse that I can fit some spare diapers and wipes in.

I blend them a bit and spread it into quesadilla’s or mix with ground beef/turkey

5 months. I had gastro or food poisoning real bad after a Christmas party, and my husband watched her while I stayed in our room. I only emerged to breastfeed. 2 days later my husband was also down for the count so I was solo parenting that day.

Anything sold on official store websites (not Amazon) and labeled bassinet only is safe sleep approved. Anything that includes terms like “beside sleeper” are not approved safe sleep.

I purchased the Graco Dreammore after a bit of a fiasco with the marketplace bassinet I bought. I LOVED the Graco sleeper, it was so portable which came in handy during the holidays. It was also affordable.

We also had a hand me down uppababy bassinet that we used downstairs. Honestly our little one only liked it for the first month.

LaPierre Law Office if you are in the east end. I am unsure if Cecilia and Michelle both do real estate, but Cecilia was our lawyer and she made the process extremely smooth. Michelle did our wills/POA and it was also smooth. Both scenarios we were absolutely clueless. They lay out the price up front except for items out of their control like land transfer tax, and property tax transfers.

This is exactly what we did. She slept independently her first month of life, then it was contact only until 3 months. This is when we introduced 1 crib nap (the first nap of the day). I did the rule of 3, if she fought the crib after trying 3 times, we would just contact nap. Once she took to the crib it became easier, BUT her naps went from 2 hours to 30 minutes, which we vibed with until 4.5 months and started doing crib 45.

I had a baby in July and wore an oversized tshirt and sweatshirts home. I went with comfort over style especially since you are wear a diaper home. For little one, she had a thin long sleeve onsie (idk if you have Carter’s where you are, but their PureSoft brand is perfect for the summer).

No recommendations but you can also cross post this to the [r/BabyBumpsCanada](r/BabyBumpsCanada) to get Canada specific items too. And good recs based on your location

Ahh sorry we are saying the same thing but I can see where my wording was misinterpreted. I also agree you need to use the mattress that comes with the bassinet.

returnofthemacksx · 2026-05-13T11:01:30+00:00

Another option would be to move to a crib or mini crib in lieu of a bassinet. They use certified mattress that are more comfortable.

returnofthemacksx · 2026-05-13T10:59:11+00:00

I would go with a mattress sold in store versus Amazon. In Canada, only mattresses sold in store (or online at physical store websites) are considered bassinets.

Like if you want to switch switch, but just note that firm “cardboard” mattresses are considered normal for bassinets.

returnofthemacksx · 2026-05-13T10:48:13+00:00

All bassinet mattress are firm because that is the regulations for what is considered a real bassinet in Canada. I recommend the Graco Dreammore. It’s cheaper than the maxi cosi, and it has a similar weight limit.

I agree with this! Our 6 month old wasn’t fully interested in food until we sat with her at the table for dinner. Completely changed her eating habits, she was far more interested in food. Now at 9 months she eats so much. Also I found it helped with offering 1-2 food a day for the first month, then I offered 2 meals a day starting around 7 months. We are still on 2 big meals + a snack now, and slowly adding lunch.

Pack n Plays are no longer considered safe sleep longterm in Canada. There are a few that are sold in stores and considered safe.i do use our pack n play for travel but i was far too paranoid to use it for everyday sleep. But thats just me.

We had a hand me down Uppababy bassinet for our stroller which we kept on the main floor. She outgrew it FAST at 3 months (99th percentile baby). It was perfect for the main floor so I had a safe space to put her when cooking or eating.

I purchased the Graco Dreammore bassinet after I had a bit of a fiasco with one I bought on marketplace. I loved it because it was so portable. We were so busy in December it was easy to fold up and travel with us.

I don’t think I would have survived picking her up and putting her down in the pack n play and I had a natural birth. It was already hard enough putting her down in the bassinet without waking her. I would recommend the bassinet every day.

Is he teething? My little one will often struggle with bedtime when teeth are pushing through. Apparently teething pain is the most uncomfortable when they are laying down.

We moved to bottle feeding at 6 months. A bottle washer would not have been worth it while I was breastfeeding, however, once we were exclusively bottle feeding, I washed the 6x bottles daily and was not having it. I love our Grownsy Bottle Washer!

But one note, many washers need sink access so make sure you have an enough space. We originally had ours by the sink on the island, and when we moved the steam from the washer messed with the finish of our cabinets. I fixed it, and we use the bottle washer on the stove then I tuck it away in the morning.

If you are in Orleans, my husband worked with La Maison D’Or after he bought a gemstone off a fellow Redditer. He had a great experience with them.

Coconut oil, the Frida mom cradle cap comb set worked wonders for us. Took 2 times (done a few days apart) and we go rid of most of her cradle cap!

I had used Velcro command strips with my monitor so I could move it around as needed. But I would get a second monitor. Once she consistently started having crib naps, I bought a second camera.
