Azriel at 2 days old vs 11 weeks old. since the beginning he's been so well in his cradleboard. he puts himself right to sleep once I lace him up. or if he's not tired he just chills and watches his surroundings. and at this point, he can sleep the longest when he's in the board. I love that I can carry on these traditions and that Azriel loves it too!
@ahredfox, I'm making a moss bag too.. just taking forever cause I'm so busy lol. and yes my son loves to be swaddled too!
I love this! That's so awesome. I can't wait for my mom to finish my sons cradleboard and a mossbag. My son loves to be swaddled.
I'm Cherokee and for the life of me I can't find those. Did you make yours?
ive never heard them called that.but heard it comforts them like no other!
what a cutie.
were indian also,and we use to attend powwows and camp sites just for natives and i use to see babies wrapped in papooses?i believe theyre called.love it and the culture
It's not so much about it being because it's wrong or anything, just facts. It's similar with baby carriers. Specialists have found that carriers with the narrow crotch can cause hip issues because it goes against the natural way that the hips work. Carriers like the ergo that allow baby to be carried in a more seated position are better for the hips. Of course most babies are fine either way, but it increases the risk. I still think that it's nice to see traditions passed down to generations. I have so many different cultural backgrounds and i wish i knew some of the traditions of my ancestors.
@arivera64, that's not true. I've seen children in my family & community cradleboarding since I can remember and all of those kids grew up perfectly healthy and no hip problems. there's always going to be someone who has to find something wrong with what we do, but that doesn't mean they're right. lol
Cool. I just kind of googled it a little. I did read that it's linked to hip dysplasia as a downside....but it's an interesting backstory. I enjoy learning about different cultures and traditions
@lifewithplumms, lol it is or else why would I put my own precious baby in it?
@arivera64, yes it is & there's a story but it's very long and a lot to type lol here's a link for a little more info though ссылка
is that a native american tradition? I've never seen that before. Is there a "story" behind it? I'm so curious lol
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
