DSD picking newborn up and putting him back in Moses basket

[Pinkpetal9999]

My DSD (12) was visiting, our newborn is 4 weeks old and still has a delicate neck. I am happy with DSD holding her brother as long as one of us has put him in a position that keeps his neck supported. She will hold him from time to time if we are in another room.

However to my horror the other day I saw her taking him out of his Moses basket and putting him back.

Am I being unreasonable in that I feel that’s a step too far?

Teach her how to do it safely? It’s a valuable life skill.

It's not a bullying or nasty reply - you seem fairly determined to pick a fight with someone on this thread, don't you, keyboard warrior?

It's relevant to give further information to parents where it might prompt them to look further into the advice they have been given to enable them to make decisions based on common sense.

Have you got an aversion to eye rolling emojis then? You should get that checked out! 😂

🙄🙄🙄🙄😁

I agree. And I am a step mum.

It’s nasty and bullying to eye roll at people and call their advised methods ‘ridiculous’ when giving unsolicited advice that is zero of your business. If you can’t understand an incredibly simple thing like that, then I can’t help you.

@Gruttenberg the advice mixed with horrendous colic, not one member of our family but me and my partner feed the baby. Again it’s not something I even asked about or have any intention on changing my mind about so id save yourself the bother.

its not just my poor DSD that is banished from picking up our LO or banned from feeding him. Get a bloody grip

No it's not. The eye roll was for the ridiculous advice. Did I ask you to help me? I can help you to eye roll if you want though, even though you're the most sanctimoniously passive aggressive whinger I've seen on here for a while. I did actually wonder if you were the OP setting up a second profile just to have someone on side.

🙄😎🙄🤗🙄😜💃🙄🤓🤔🙄

Thought I'd treat to you to a variety of emojis - there must be some you like in there!

@Gruttenberg right I’m clocking out of this thread, it’s reached new levels of immaturity I didn’t know were possible.
As for making an additional profile to support myself, I have a newborn, what person in their right mind would have the time or energy to do this.
I have never known someone so deluded to think that the only way someone could possibly agree with or support my views is because it’s a profile I’ve set up.

Goodnight all.

The OP has replied to you herself now, letting you know your ‘advice’ is entirely unwelcome.

Anyone with two brain cells to rub together would recognise your post as ill-meaning.

Post silly things, win silly prizes, I guess.

Here's another mother asking when she's allowed to let others feed her baby. It's just a made up rule.

Did either of you even read the Op, the child has held the baby lots of times and is supervised when doing so.

Nope. Try again.

Tag team strikes again. You do realise that if you don't respond I won't either. Still, play silly games win stupid prizes. And you're definitely showing you're game.

Is it lost on you that this post is asking for the advice? OP is not. OP has let you know it’s unhelpful. Accept that very simple thing.

It doesn’t bother me whatsoever whether you reply or not. Be more original.

She got advice, she hasn't liked it.

I can keep going every single time you answer me. I don't care what the OP/You are throwing in here. It's an open forum. I'm not attacking anyone, you are. And your mate.

Go for it. Doesn’t bother me in the slightest.

😂

Cute.

Thanks!

Agree,

Indeed. This thread is full of hateful comments.

Agree.
