[@marcus3d]

What surprised me was that you didn't show what equipment to avoid. These weird names you used might be very familiar to *you* but that doesn't mean everyone know what they mean. Instead of showing you talking about them maybe you could actually show pictures or videos of the devices in question? Like, you're showing a clarifying video of what "walking outside" means, but not what bloody exersaucers or floor seats are!

[@bibbedyboo3532]

So many people pushed me to buy my son a walker and a jolly jumper and i refused. One lady went and got him one (second hand free) and dumped it on my doorstep because she was angry that I was depriving him by refusing to get him a walker and said she was buying a jolly jumper for christmas which I also objected. I explained that both myself and David need to do the proper steps towards developing his walking and that I didnt feel toys can offer him that instead 6 months of hard labor holding him up with no abdominal core while he jumped and jumped and stomped on my bladder, my legs until at 8.5 months he took his first steps. We worked hard on it together and I had nobody else to encourage him to walk. Single mum in a pandemic. I am so proud of his determination and even if I am not a perfect mother it showed me that instinctively I have what it takes to recognise his needs over my own. I still cant believe how angry some people got when i said I wasn’t getting him a walker.

[@cocoabrown3914]

If it helps, I brought both for my twins and realised it was pointless. They were already standing up against the sofa and walking along it…1 twin is now taking his first steps at 1 😊. I think by buying a walker would’ve stifled their development. Great move Mum!

My baby hurt her eye very badly due to not wearing gloves or mittens 😢 it was awful man. Thank god she recovered extremely fast.

[@bearcute9335]

My baby boy was diagnosed of mild loose hip when he was born and we put on the harness on day 6. Really lucky to have that put on instantly. Many doctor would say after 6 months or let’s observe. In 6 weeks time, the ultrasound proved the the problem gone. It’s very important to keep hips in M. Under the guidance given by the doctors and nurses, we never swaddled the baby, never covered his hands, barely let him wear socks at home, no walking or sitting assistant toys etc. it really worked! It’s not a hearsay, it’s actually science and research findings.

[@oleksandrazabolotna873]

Thanks for the video! Just something I've noticed - the two videos of women carrying their babies in the carriers actually show a wrong carrying position. Aside from the M-shape for the legs, babies should be carried at a distance of a kiss (so that mom can always be sure that their airways are open and prevent suffocation). Furthermore the back of the baby should be in a C-shape to maintain a curve and spread out the weight.

[@EmmaHubbard]

thanks for sharing!

[@sithembilesenzani6445]

One thing I learnt here is that I need a new nanny. Personally i don't like kids who are too much into TV but just realized that sometimes when my baby cries she hands her the phone. When i realized she's interested in my phone i decided no phones when we engaging and no TV when she's eating, but she reverses all that as soon as I exit🥺

It infuriates me when my husband is on his phone when he is watching our daughter. He doesn’t seem to understand that she is trying to engage with him but he isn’t giving her eye contact. But at the same time I also know he needs to destress after work…

[@anushadevalla1869]

That's a problem... hw to gt over it

[@MsAngelique]

I wouldn't mind if my husband was trying to relax while with the baby. He's the breadwinner and he needs his relaxation time to function. I'd just either let it be or take the baby to give him more I interaction myself. Then I'd wait until my husband was ready to hand the kid back.

Love these tips! Particularly love tips number #5 and #6. Conan was previously a Podiatrist so for our girls we tried to keep shoes to an absolute minimum until they were between 2-3 years old.

[@savannahjones299]

We use mittens not for warmth or to keep skin soft. But to keep them from scratching their face up because babies nails are razor sharp and hard to clip when their new Borns. But as they get older the less it becomes a necessity. I personally don't like mine wearing mittens unless he needs to.

[@EmmaHubbard]

Thanks for sharing!

I did socks but only at night because my kid would yank his hair out and pinch himself very hard and he hated swaddles so the socks made him stay asleep without the socks he would wake up screaming with his hair pulled out in his hands it would make him frustrated and then he'd grab his pacifier and toss it...

Oh crap, my baby has had her legs down a lot and I thought that was a good thing, so I've been swaddling her that way. I hope I haven't been giving her hip dysplasia! She's 6 weeks old, so I really hope that I haven't done damage yet! My niece had hip dysplasia (from birth) and it was an absolute nightmare! She had surgeries and was in a cast for much of her baby years, without much success. She'll need a new hip down the line, possibly in early adulthood. Hopefully not so soon yet, though!

Great video, thanks. Would be very interested in your thoughts on dummies/pacifiers. Are they ok to use?

[@EmmaHubbard]

Great question! Dummies/pacifiers are great for baby's (particularly in the first few months of life) as sucking is very soothing for babies. I do find that after 4 months of age dummies can lead to disrupted sleep. Once it starts to disrupted sleep, I would think about fading out the dummy.

[@teawithlecree5328]

Hi Emma, thank you so much for your videos. They are amazing and very informative. I was wondering about a habit my little one tends to do when she's tired. She starts to rub her eyes, which I know is quite normal when they are tired but then she will try digging her fingers into eyes while sucking her thumb, even just after falling asleep or while she's sleeping to sooth herself. Her fingers automatically fiddle with her eyes. It worries me a lot as I've heard rubbing the eyes is not good in the long term. Any suggestions to curb this habit?

How am I meant to keep my baby's feet warm in winter if they're not supposed to wear socks? Not all of us live in warm climates or perfectly regulated homes.

[@Samantha-hg2lj]

Try to keep the room that you & baby are in warm, if you can’t keep the floor warm while baby’s walking/crawling a play mat is always a great idea to keep babies off the floor. Our house isn’t regulated any time of the year so that’s what we’ve done! ☺️

[@charlotteinnocent8752]

I think this video goes overboard a little. Wearing socks some of the time is not going to hurt a baby. If she pulls her socks off for a while during play so she can stick her toes in her mouth, just leave her to enjoy her feet for a bit, and put clean socks on after a while so her feet don't get too cold. When she's ready to stand, let her do it barefoot, and when she switches back to sit down playing put em on again. I have five kids (youngest is six months). I used walkers for example for all of them, no hip displacia. But they didn't use the walkers ALL DAY, just one of the many toys I used to keep them interested. A little while, then change to another toy. Same with socks. They wore them some of the time in winter, but keeping a baby's socks on is mission impossible anyway! Relax and just do your best to let baby explore the world in her own way and don't let her tootsies get too cold!

I'm obviously not Emma, but I have twins that were born at 34w6d and are now 5.5 months old, so very similar in age/gestation to your baby.

My baby is usually wearing footy pjs while at home so she's comfy but now I wonder if its hindering her with tummy time. Today I undid the jammies on her feet so that they could be out incase she isn't getting enough traction on the yoga mat

Hi my baby is16 weeks and is still not actively rolling and hates tummy time. but she has strong legs and wants to stand up all the time. Is this pretty normal?

Does the mitten rule include, say, teething mittens?

[@aidanmcbride1118]

What about mitts while sleeping? Are there alternative ways to prevent scratching?

[@jayschu759]

Keep the babies nails short. I bought an electric file and use the softest file on slow and works AMAZING. No scratches at all and have never used mittens. Sometimes I'll use the fold over sleeves at night just to keep his hands warm, but that's all. Hope this helps. Also, I don't recommend an adult file, as the grit is too sharp for their thin nails and skin.

Can you please make a video on baby that has developmental delays. I have a year old she just started commando crawling. Thanks

[@debbie356]

How is your baby, is he/she walking yet?

[@deebutterfly22]

Hi Emma, if the baby is preterm (35 weeks), when to do the developmental check, is it from the corrected age or when baby was born? Thanks

[@EmmaHubbard]

The developmental milestones you are hoping your little one is reaching is based on their corrected age not the date they were born.
