My 7 week old wakes up every 3 hours to be fed during the day but when it comes to night time she’s sleeping for like 7-8 hours at a time and then when I wake her she’s hungry is this okay and normal or should I be concerned

Exclusively breastfeeding moms - when did your period return?

My baby daddy chose being with someone else over giving our family another chance. Before her, we were always together, slept same bed, sex, trips, ect, we weren’t perfect but we had a very good relationship. (Not the point, just some background) He has now been with this girl for almost two years and has completel...

Hi! My baby is almost 8 months. We usually give her a bath 1-2 times a week and she loved it at first. All of a sudden the past 3 times she has screamed immediately once I put her in the tub and she is crying and attempting to get out. She started crawling around this time and pulling herself to stand up. We haven’t...

Interested in switching from pampers swaddlers to Kirkland brand but curious if anyone still likes them since they changed their manufacturer early this year. How’s the leak proofing and softness? I know I can always return if we hate it but it’s a hassle so rather just get opinions first, thanks!

How many words are your babies saying?? I'm scared my son isn't saying enough words he kind of just babbles but says things like "papa" or "dada" sometimes he'll say "ma" or he'll point at a ball and say "ba" but that's about it for now he does make a shushing sound and "f" sounds I'm wondering if that means I may n...

I think we have hit another regression… Day 3 of being up every hour (so far). Let’s hope this one is over quickly and my little one gets back to his old sleeping patterns / routine. Is anyone else going through the same? X

My husband and I recently had sex after I was cleared, however I had 2nd degree perennial tear. The tear is healed but when I went to have some fun with my husband it felt like I was tearing again and it was painful each time we did it. Is that normal and is there anything I can do to prevent feeling that way during...

I am seriously struggling right now. I have to pump and dump for about a week and my daughter (a few days short of 10 months old) can't nurse during that time. I haven't been able to pump any milk for a stash so I have no breast milk to give her. My partner got the breast milk mimicking formula for her and she drank...

I didn’t know Braxton Hicks are painful

We’ve switched from EBF to formula/bottles and this is the amount he drinks every 3.5 hours. Whenever I do 8oz he doesn’t drink it all (he drinks about 6oz). So is this ok? Should he be having more for his age? Additional info: he’s 99th percentile height & 94th percentile in weight so I’m not too worried (lol)

We have a very high bed / mattress so looking for the tallest next to me available? I know most are adjustable but hard to find out all height options and do an easy comparison. If buying second hand do you need to buy the branded mattress or are cheaper ones off likes of Amazon okay and safe? Some of the brand...

Anyone else’s little one experiencing extra clinginess and refusal of sleep. My daughter is 8 months old and refusing to nap during the day. We cosleep at night and lately that’s how I’ve been getting her to nap. She doesn’t take pacifiers and uses the nipple for comfort.

So I go to meet w/ my therapist tomorrow at 12 and I'm so nervous like I don't even know where to start to even tell her what's going on with me. Im constantly having to fight with my brain to keep going and to stay alive for my kids. I literally hate my living situation, me and my partner are constantly arguing, I...

Working through birth trauma and trying to come to terms with/understand what I experienced as I was neglected quite a bit. One thing that’s been playing on my mind is I was told to remove the Pessary myself as she forgot to come check me (I had to go find her in the corridor..) she said she had other things to do ...

How long did it take everyone else after they stopped breastfeeding to get their period back? I know it’s different for everyone and can even come back while breastfeeding. I stopped breastfeeding almost 2 weeks ago and just want to be prepared!
