Daytime routines

How are we all managing to leave the house? My son is up at 6am everyday. Sometimes 7am. But mostly 6. Once fed, changed, had a play I'm ready to leave the house. But it's only 7/8am then. Things aren't open. So then I wait till his first nap. Which is usually 3 hours after he's woken. Then cause I'm feeding every 4...

Does anyone else hate breastfeeding?

I feel like I'm supposed to enjoy it and I do like 25% to 59% of the time. And for the most part it's painless but it's just so time consuming and takes up most of my day and I know I'm privileged to be able to even breastfeed since I know so many women can't but I really don't like it whatsoever but the guilt of ev...

Tmi

Sorry for the tmi but it’s been 4 days since I gave birth and I still haven’t been for a number 2. I have bad piles & stitches are so sore so it’s because of that. I feel like I need to go but just can’t 😩 has anyone else experienced this?

How much night sleep for 3 month old?

Currently sleeping 11pm-7am, is 8 hours overnight sleep enough? If we put her down any earlier she wakes more frequently at night and wakes up for the day at 4-5am, so 11pm bedtime seems to be working great.

My 3 snd a half month old goes to sleep around 8.30 when our room is around 19/20°c and the room can drop to around 16/17°c throughout the night so I have no idea what to put her in! She's currently in a sleep suit and a 2.5 tog but she sleeps all night so I can't ...

Feeding

Hiya guys, my little girl is 6 days old now, she has dropped nearly 15% of her birth weight! I was exclusively breast feeding but have now had to stop it her on a feeding plan of 60ml a day (mix of breast and formula) she still is only having about 20ml of a bottle and that’s taking over and hour to have as she just...

Own bedroom

At what age did you move your babies to their own room ( if you have yet ) ? My LO is 6 months on the 27th but I feel he is ready now to go into his own room but it’s me that’s wanting him to stay. We keep waking him in the night when we disturb/get up to the toilet etc and I feel it’s getting unfair for him. I just...

What would you do?

Obviously goes without saying with a newborn that you shouldn’t kiss a baby… and we had to correct the MIL on that as she thought the rule applied to freinds and not family?🫣😂 anyways … LG is 9 months old and I feel like MIL was testing the waters today as she was playing with my little girl and kept running up to…
