Whose LO (1yo) here likes to drink bathe water? Mine recently developed this weird habit of drinking the bathe water. So I took away her toy cups and Guess what? She dunked her face inside the tub to drink. No worry, my tub is very shallow kind but still? ? dun recall my #1 doing that!

I am the main caregiver/sahm to my 10mth old and as a result, she is extremely sticky to me. I.e she will cry the roof down for me. When the grandparents or my husband tries to help, she will reject them. She will seek for me. I do nurse her for naps and dream latching her at night. Because of that, I’m always very tired and quick tempered. I dun recall my #1 behaves like this. I’m trying to wean her off my bm as I will be returning to work soon. (Both kids I took a year break). Anyone has any idea or tips on how to slowly detach this ‘stickiness’?

Don’t attend to her immediately when she calls for you. Give her 5 minutes, even if she’s screaming. She gradually learns to self soothe and be independent, as well as less scared of being alone. Also, when your husband’s home, let him be the first one to go to her and comfort her. This works best if she sleeps in a separate room.. Stop the dream latching. It helps a lot. Yes, she will scream for now, but will get used to it after a while. For bottle feeding, let your husband and grandparents do it. Don’t be anywhere near here during those feeds. It might be tough initially, but it’s better for her to scream now than after you go back to work. When my daughter rejected the bottle for 3.5 months, my husband would rough it out with her for at least 30minutes before I stepped in to “rescue the feed” by latching if needed. Because of his perseverence, she’s finally drinking very well from the bottle. Stop the latching before naps and sleep to dissociate feeding and sleeping. That would mean you’ll need a new way of getting her to sleep ie. Start sleep training. There are many ways (you can go check them out 🙂). There might be a lot of crying initially because she may feel like her world is turning upside down all of a sudden, but be brave and make all these changes. It’ll be worth it for everyone. My LO refused the cot for a long time, and then later on, patting firmly helped. Then it didn’t work after some time. Carrying/rocking also didn’t work. So for my case, we had no choice but to use the cry it out method. But it works, and there’s no psychological scarring. She’s still a very happy girl. And she sleeps in her own cot in her own room. I still breastfeed her, but she’s alright with bottle feeding, and she’s alright if i’m away for a couple of hours. Hope everything goes well for you ❤️ The training is hard for everyone, especially the mummy and baby, because of the connection between both. But it’ll really be okay. And your husband will be able to bond better with baby, as well as spend more personal time with you, once baby is more independent.

LO not drinking much

My 6mth old has just begun consuming solid, mainly homemade purée for at most twice a day. I usually give it to her after milk feed. I realised there was a tremendous decline in her milk intake (via bottle). She will refused milk from bottle but she will be okay with direct nursing. In total, she can nurse approx. 2 hours in a day and drink only 200ml or less of FM. I do not want to force her to drink more milk as I tried & she will puke. Last check she is at 8kg @ 6mth & 3 weeks. Should I be worry?
