Really good local first aid class

Just to say if anyone is looking for a paediatric first aid class locally, I went to one run by a paramedic called Laura today and it was brilliant. It was held at puddle ducks swimming pool and babies were welcome.

Daily training- good progress

Daddy got the baby for the whole day yesterday and somehow did all 5 activities from the daily plan 🤣
She came back to me at bedtime fully ruined in the best way — passed out by 7pm, slept through the night, didn’t make a single peep until 6am.
Praying he keeps this up because mama needs another night like that 💜

4 month sleep advice!

I need 4 month baby sleep advice!
Chat gpt says one thing, an app says another. My baby is 4 months 2 weeks and feels like his sleep has been rubbish for like 5-6 weeks now. I did think yesterday maybe his day naps are too short, he’s had three short naps today (30 mins each x 3)
An app I have is saying he should have another short nap (6.38pm) but Chat gpt is saying an early bed time. He can normally go down between 6.00/7.45 depending on the day after a bath and feed but he wakes so much during the night.
The app is saying they need like 3 hours day time sleep then 10 nighttime, But he just seems to wake every 1.5-2 hours and only thing to settle is the boob. I try dummy and hand on chest first, sometimes works, most time doesn’t, same with a cuddle and rocking. Boob quietens him but half the time it’s soothing rather than feed. I unlatch him and let him sleep on me for about 15 minutes so it’s safe to transfer him without waking, also sometimes works, sometimes doesn’t. I don’t know what the right thing is to do. Feel like I’m losing my mind lol

Any tips on how to get my 6 month old to sleep in her crib?

Her crib is in the same room as us, but she has been bed sharing with us since she was about a month old.

Formula fed babies

My little one is 12 days old and already feeding around 90ml each feed. Is this normal? It seems a lot & I’m worried I’m over feeding her but if I give her less she’s still rooting and gets upset. Thanks🤍

Am I alone?

Moms…
My son will be 2 months old in a few weeks. With the early wake ups, long wake stretches with crying most of the time…
I am starting to have the feeling that I don’t even enjoy holding him. I thought I dodged PPD this time around but I feel like it’s creeping up on me. This isn’t my first kid and this babies cry is almost like nails on a chalkboard to me. Am I alone?
Does anyone have any tips to get longer stretches of sleep through the night. I feel like that is a big factor.

He will go to bed around 11:30. Wake up at 4ish and stay away till 8 and then take a nap. I’m tireddddddddd
Help!
