I just sleep-trained my baby for the first time and feeling overwhelmed, I decided to do some extra research while he's sleeping. I read specifically the article on 7 month olds and it honestly made me feel relieved. I feel like the information felt very accurate as well.
I was struggling with a pregnancy after an ectopic loss and this app has really helped me feel connected and educated! I can't wait to continue using it throughout this journey!
Hi Sarah, Thank you so much for your review. We’re so sorry for your loss, and it means the world to us that BabyCenter has helped you feel supported and connected. Best wishes on your pregnancy journey!
I was born in October! She was born in May! More October births! Yay!
I loved the explanations on baby development and the best way to teach my baby being a first time parent. My son is 3 months and this article has helped with my perspective on how to help his educational development.
Hi Nelly, we're so glad we could give you some helpful tips - thanks for your review! Congratulations on your little one!
I haven't had any kinds of pain in my vagina. I don't even have sex I'm only 15 years old. But I'm waiting until later next year maybe. But it's good to know about all of this it's very helpful.
I'll definitely be putting some of these tips into practice as I deal with my 3 year old and 1 year old. Both are at different stages, experiencing separation anxiety in different ways but some of these tips may be helpful for both such as developing a routine when I leave, letting them know I'm about to go and keeping nighttime sessions boring so they go back to sleep.
Camille, we're so glad we could give you some helpful tips - thanks for your review!
First Grandchild at the age of 76 but a young 76 don't want ancient Grandma or Nanny or Nanna my name is Lynda really need some help on this one! Anyone got any ideas?
Lynda, congratulations on your first grandchild! What to be called is definitely a dilemma - we hope you find something that fits!
I think this article is great. Im 4 weeks in and I feel a lot more confident knowing more about what to do if I notice signs of preeclampsia. I originally didn't even know what that was fully, let alone what to do. I really appreciate the information.
Victoria, we're so glad we could help! Best wishes on your pregnancy journey!
Please take the information on what works from the mothers... they know their child the best... not the doctors who see them sparatically. Thats all
Thanks for your input - we love hearing what would make your BabyCenter experience better!
I learned my first grandbaby is not sleeping through the night.
Helpful reminder how to increase the likelihood of resolving this issue
The community is a cesspool of hateful, mentally unstable women. The majority of them are hypocrites who abuse people while claiming they're the voice of reason. If you were really BTDT, you'll be empathetic than abuse someone saying they're a fool, and don't deserve to be a mother. The admins of the site know this but do nothing.
Amazing resources, love the weekly updates that we get on the growth of baby. The app is super user friendly too!
Beware. If you are not a religious SAHM with a perfect marriage you will get abused by the women on this site. I posted asking advice because I was experiencing jealousy. I got attacked by dozens of women asking me personal questions about my marriage, shaming me for how long I'd been married, how quickly I got pregnant, shaming my childhood trauma, just alot of personal attacks and for no good reason other then to beat you down. Apparently you have to fit into a perfect mold or you're a bad mom, a bad and toxic person, etcetc. Evil cackling hens who are on a high horse and want to cause people suffering.
Oh boy! I thought the Cafe Mom site was horrible so I started going to this site. At first it was cool but then over the years it just went downhill. There are certain members who have been on here for years who are allowed to say what they want, be rude, bully and talk about others with out any consequences but once the poster defends themselves including me it's DELETE DELETE DELETE. They throw the word therapy around like a ball and are always accusing the woman of needing therapy but never the man. If you flip it around and ask them why is it that their husband's aren't seeking therapy they will delete the whole post. Oh and please do not use the word ALL because they will delete your post and accuse you of Gender Generalization. If you say "All men are the same" Delete. "A woman will always take a man back" Delete. One day they allowed my post to stay up for 3 days under my post the comments were awful and had vile words in it but when I mentioned a husband needing therapy under someone else's post they deleted the post right away.
Biggest bunch of bullies I've ever come across, most of them are admin/moderators so if you call them out on it you get banned, and called a liar with multiple usernames! If you have a different opinion to the majority your bullied and hounded till you leave, Debates and discussions is notorious for it, it seems to be run by a few long time members, most likely the same person that has nothing better to do with her life. Uneducated leftist views. Steer clear of users W_a_l_k_e_r, Anonu0864b, Cogs3, ymofive. Most likely all the same user and admins so no help if you need it. Delete and move along
The app is easy to use while pregnant but becomes a negative ad filled mess post pardum. The week by week tracker articles are poorly written and end with something negative for example my baby is 4 months and the reading about milestones and stuff starts off great then at the end of says what are signs of pinkeye? Why? My baby doesn't have pink eye or pink eye isn't a milestone why not put that somewhere else in the app like a common illnesses or a finder for someone looking for it? The week after what is an ear infection? Why? It's a negative ending to each week which leaves users with a bad feeling afterwards. I don't feel happy after using the app. I always look to other baby apps to shine a positive light to the weekly milestone because this one sucks at it. Look at "what to expect" they way they do it is much better all negative parts are to the side.
Made the huge mistake of positing a genuine questions on the AIBU and was absolutely hounded by awfully rude women using harsh language and inappropriate comments. I was genuinely shocked since I posted in good faith.
Really attracts a certain type of Karen and frankly I'm horrified how some of hear 'mothers' talk about other peoples kids.
It really affected my mental health sadly.
Seeing others say the same thing has restored my sanity.
AVOIDDD
Just find any positive review. Those are the people that bully and bring people down, then leave good reviews because they enjoy it. They peaked in high school and are sham's now looking for that same mean girl high they got when they picked on the EC kids
A cesspool of unpleasant, unhappy, bored women who take pleasure in drama and cutting others down. Many of these women live on the internet. I honestly don't understand how they work or pay attention to their family given the devotion to this site. Really took a dive into extreme leftism in 2016 and dug the whole deeper in 2020 during the pandemic. No outside opinions that divert from the leftist narratives and agendas are welcome and you will be ganged up on for expressing them. If you value debate, freedom of speech, common sense, tolerance, and compassion this site is NOT for you.
If you're looking at the community tab, hoping to find some people in a similar situation as you that could offer advice or be helpful, then go for it. Sometimes you're able to find that.
But besides that, don't even bother. I see so many people posting questions they have and then they get bullied in the comments. Most of them even come from group owners themselves. They go back and forth being hateful and its so nasty.
They will 100% make fun of you and wish ill upon you. I've even seen some people keep track of others posts and their life, trying to insert themselves and say 'well didnt you post [x]? So you're lying about [x]' etc. wtf?
Also if you struggle with infertility, pcos, endo, etc - this is NOT a healthy website to be on for your mental health. Ive seen people joke about those things often.
Answer: Shut it down. Clearly these girls found this page too but they're irrelevant here. I hate that we are treated like we can't handle their behavior but they cannot tolerate the truth about themselves. They need to learn to wear their "big girl panties" not everyone wants to be your friend or agree with your stupidity. Uneducated idiots! I hope you get to close it.
Answer: Hi, my baby hold his body tightly he is one and half year old still not holding his neck.
Answer: It's a legit company, but one of the worst you will come across.
