2 month old wont sleep on stomach

[maidezmoi]

Hi I want to get my LO to take naps on her stomach during the day. However she flatly refuses to do so. Any tips?

Oh look a cross-post. How did I know you were going to react that way? sigh. You really are quite pathetic.

People responded to your OP by giving you the SIDS advice and replying to the baldness which you mentioned.

Only when you turned on us did we turn on you.

Hello toad, you vicious thing you

maidezmoi I've reported your posts of 18.40 and 18.41. Out of order IMO.

PMSL@ midnightexpress. Which particular bit offended you love?

good god

drama queens..or would htat be concerned mothers talking about the potential for SIDS.

your HV is giving you contraindicated advice

anyhoo, if her head is sore and rubbed raw, that is a different issue and needs to be dealt with

but not by her sleeping on her stomach

maidezmoi!
what in gods name has got in to you?
you have been HORRID on this thread to EVERYONE who has dared to disagree with you!!!

you won't find anyone able to give advice on how to getyour baby to sleep on their tummies because nobody does it because it's dangerous.
that is no reason to be so aggressive and unpleasant.

Aww no Midnightexpress - now my name will just look plain silly

i was going to post something about SIDS but think this thread has moved on ...

and as for calling squonk a scumbag.
i would rather be mawkish and pompous than rude and offensive, you asked for opinoins and advice, and when you got it you went nuts because it was not what you wanted to hear

ruby, i would not waste the typing!

Crumbs, was going to give advice having 19yrs of experience with babies, but after reading that MaidezMoi i will keep my advice and suggestions to myself, as you are well informed just can't actually think of a word suitable for this early in the evening.

Cannot believe how unpleasant you are being, you must be mad. What a vicious tongue.

No Lulu, I asked for advice on how to get my baby to sleep on her front during the day after she had rubbed her head raw and the health visitor advised me to do so in order to avoid flathead syndrome and lessen the soreness to her head.

Some people kindly gave me advice regarding pillows and the like, another poster kindly posted more info about flat head and others threw hissy fits and made fun of me stating that it was a hairstyle issue and most unpleasantly using some poor womans dead child as a tool to berate me.

I think i've been quite reasonable considering

reasonable?

on what planet is swearing and calling people scum reasonable?

maidezmoi - are you ok? You are being EXTREMELY over sensitive/weird, is something wrong? Or are you just a bitch?

Lets just recap on the message Squonk posted to me without cause or provocation:

"If you want to ignore ALL the advice both on this site, what your own health professionals will have told you and what EVERYBODY knows to be factual because you are concerned about your baby's hairstyle...

really, is it worth it?

Why don't you buy some peroxide as well so she can have that blonde head of hair that you always dreamed about?

why not put her feet in shoes that are too small for her so she can have dainty little tootsies as well?

And while you're at it, why don't you insult everyone who, at the end of the day, are trying to stop you from putting your baby at risk.

"

Nice eh?

Oh did you notice how I got upset after that?

in your OP you said nothing about plagio or red raw head, simply she was rubbing off her hair ,which many posters said was normal and the tradeoff for risk of SIDS was not worth it

so , you got a tongue lashing for seemingly putting the vanity of a full head of hair before safety

and that got people riled and cross.

DS1 had severe flat head and had to wear a helmet. To avoid it with ds2 I have used a sling, a goi goi pillow in pram (when supervised) and a sleepcurve mattress at night he has a lovely round head. So you can avoid it without putting to sleep on their front.

Oh this is like one of those drip feeding information to make sure my point means something as the original one didn't threads isn't it?
Put some vaseline on the abys head and dont be so nasty to people.

actually, I think you'll find that your post:
" By maidezmoi on Fri 12-Sep-08 17:37:52
oh get a life you drama queens! Babies die of the flu more often than SIDS-should I keep her wrapped in clingfilm too? " came before my little rant.

I was absolutely horrified that you would consider putting your baby to sleep on her tummy. It is hugely dangerous and I wanted to get it across to you that it is absolutely not something you should ever consider unless there is a strong medical reason that justifies it.

I didn't feel that her having a bald patch on the back of her head (which was all you had mentioned at that point) was such a strong medical reason.

I stand by my comments, I am horrified at the way you have reacted to people telling you that this is a bad idea.

Ok I hear you Lulu I will be more clear in future, but wouldn't the decent thing to do to be to ask, Maidezmoi why are you more concerned about your childs hairstyle than the risk of SIDS.

Incidentally whomever posted the link to the wigs for babies, I have saved it to my favourites-i'm considering going for the rasta wig.

If her head is really sore I would definately recomend the sleep curve, really takes the pressure off.

I expected you to stand by your comments Quonk,-says it all really luv
