Ever feel that flicker of guilt when your baby naps in the stroller? You’re not alone—and the good news: the occasional stroller snooze won’t derail your baby’s development. 💤

The key is balance. Some containers (like bassinet strollers) are better than others, and too much time in one position can impact posture, head shape, or motor skills, especially in young infants.

This post breaks down what to look for in a stroller, when it’s safe to nap on the go, and how to support your baby’s movement outside the seat. 🚼

Want more details on what’s safe, what’s not, and what your baby’s body really needs?

Just because your baby likes sitting up doesn’t mean it’s the best thing for their development.

Propping babies into a seated position before they can get there on their own can actually interfere with how they build strength, balance, and body awareness.

Instead, focus on floor time, tummy time, and letting your baby move through milestones naturally. Sitting will come—and when it does, it’ll be stronger, safer, and all them 💪

Need ideas for how to support your baby’s motor milestones? Link below for the full blog.

😵‍💫 Ever feel like feeding your baby is a test you’re constantly failing?

You’re not alone.

Whether you’re breastfeeding, pumping, combo feeding, or using formula—milk anxiety is real. The constant worry. The ounces counted. The 3am Googling. The apps. The pressure.

And the wild part? The stress we feel trying to do it all right can actually make it harder.

Especially when going back to work, so many parents feel like their supply is slipping—and their confidence goes with it. But here’s the truth:

✨ Feeding your baby should feel nourishing for both of you.
✨ Formula is not failure.
✨ Pump output doesn’t define your worth.
✨ And you don’t have to do this alone.

If you’re deep in the spiral, pause. Breathe. You are not broken. You’re doing something hard—and you’re doing better than you think.
