Teething Help

I'm a FTM. My son will be 3 months April 3rd. He has been teething here and there for a few weeks, and I can feel a tooth beginning to cut through. The past two days/nights, he has been miserable. Fighting sleep, refusing to chew on anything other than his hands. I've given him soothing gel, but it only works for a little bit. I've tried the Camilia drops, but he instantly spits it back up. I'm going to get infant Tylenol tomorrow to try.
I'm open to any suggestions and advice on how to make it easier on him (and me 😬).

Poor baby yes give him Tylenol he will be a different baby once he gets his dose he will feel much better. Each baby is different and when you have reached your limits and are exhausted, there is nothing wrong with giving him a little paracetamolā™„ļø

Baby isn’t pooing

Hi everyone, I’m looking for a bit of advice/reassurance from anyone who’s experienced something similar.

My baby girl is 8 days old and I’m currently combination feeding, breastfeeding, expressed milk and formula. I’ve really been trying to establish breastfeeding over the last couple of days, but it’s been a struggle since she was born.

She hasn’t had a poo for about a day and a half, and I’m wondering whether this could mean she isn’t getting enough milk directly from me. I’ve been giving expressed milk and formula this afternoon so I can keep an eye on exactly how much she’s taking.

She seems otherwise completely well — her temperature is fine, she’s feeding every few hours, sleeping well between wake windows, isn’t showing any obvious discomfort and her tummy isn’t hard.

I’ve already spoken to the midwife about it a couple of days ago and I’ll be speaking to them again tomorrow morning, but I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone who’s experienced something similar, especially with it being overnight. ā¤ļø

Sex after giving birth

Is this normal.. I gave birth beginning of July and as soon as I felt ready to have sex I’ve communicated to my partner,
Since then nothing, he’s not even trying.. I don’t understand I feel like he doesn’t want to have sex with me anymore..
Moms how long after did you have your first sexual encounter.? Just wondering I know we are all different..

Bathing baby everyday debate making me feel like a bad mum?

I’ve been seeing online lots of different opinions on bathing your baby everyday. I stopped bathing my baby everyday because I saw lots of info on how it’s bad for their skin etc and now bath mine every other day unless of course it’s a hot day or she’s been sicky/pooey or just got messy. (She gets a clean down before bed and always has fresh pjs and sheets changed regularly). However, lots of the comments say how older babies to toddlers should bath everyday and how it’s disgusting to not do it everyday? I’m
So torn and now worried that I should have been bathing her everyday and feel bad about it. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated?
