EBF & spit up

My 2 week old has been feeding nonstop and recently has had more spit up and hiccups. I hold net upright and burp her after feeding. She always seems to want more boob time right after spitting up and I tend to give her a break but then she cries and cries so I pop her back on the boob. Sometimes she feeds for ages sometimes just 5-10 min then it’s like she just wants nip for comfort but I’m worried I’m feeding her more and making it worse. Does this sound normal? Or like reflux?

My LO does this too and I found out it was because she had extra burps I hadn’t got up yet so now I burp her in about 5 different positions multiple times throughout any feed 🤣

ok good to know. My LG hates being burped lol often she’s asleep in my arms then as soon as I move her to burp her she starts crying for more feed 🤪 I’m going crazy tonight with this cycle

She may be cluster feeding too and that can be a real pain in the backside. I know with all 3 of my breastfed babies theyd feed restlessly and squirming, pull off the boob, scream at the boob, headbutt the boob, latch back on for a little while then repeat the above over and over. Id try and burp them but didnt always work. All u can do is try to either keep going or give them to someone else to hold for few mins while u take a bath, go for quick break outside/away from baby, reset then start again

11 month old constantly standing in cot

Please tell me someone has some advice for this cause wow it’s trying. My almost 11 month old is fully on the move now and his new favourite thing is repeatedly pulling to stand in his cot. The problem is that he wears a sleep sack (mainly so his legs don’t get stuck between the bars tbh lol) so he’s not stable enough to lower himself down. So earlier he fell backwards and hit is head and now we feel like we can’t just leave him to it. Typically it’s his first full day at nursery tomorrow and my first day back at work IT’S LIKE HE KNOWS!!
Please tell me someone has some tips. Currently we are quietly placing him back on his back every time but he just keeps doing it! 🤣🤡

Took 9 week old to a family party where there was loud music and she was next to the speaker for most of the time (about 3 hours). She slept through most of it. Do you think she has hearing loss from this?

Freaking out right now :(

Would this upset you…

Our baby never sleeps, so our current arrangement is I will feed her to sleep around 8-9pm and then when she wakes initially my husband will hold her in his arms until around 11pm-12am, then he puts her down and goes next door to the spare room to sleep for the night and I do the rest of the night alone (but obviously have been able to get a couple of hours head start on sleep while he’s been holding her)…

Today he has gone to watch the football with his friends and had several drinks and got home around 8pm… I fed her to sleep as normal and put her down and I heard him getting up to leave, when I asked where he was going he said next door, and when I was confused he said “I don’t trust myself to stay awake with her” implying he had drank too much and was using it as his excuse to get out of helping…

So not only have I solo parented all day, I now have to all night with no help at all, and then we are straight into the working week where it’s all on me…

I just feel SO ANGRY about it - if it was a one off thing or a special occasion it would be fine - but football feels like it’s on every other week and it’s not acceptable to me to drink enough where you are unable to support your struggling partner for the first couple of hours of the night?!

Do I have a right to be annoyed?????

Intrusive thoughts

Does anyone else constantly have thoughts in the back of their mind that put the fear of God in to them? I'm a first time Mum & my baby boy has just turned 2 weeks old & I cannot shake the feeling of something bad is going to happen to him! I keep feeling like we have been far too lucky to end up with such a perfect boy & that our luck is about to run out! I am so in love with him but this is really putting a dark cloud over our newborn bubble 😔 I just want to keep him safe!

Hey Girlies!
I’m a nursery practitioner and I said this to parents ALL the time. “ they will get there in their own time”, don’t compare them to others etc etc etc… but now being a mum.. I’m my own worst enemy. I constantly compare my little guy to others younger than him.

My Jack is not yet crawling- he gets to where he wants to go by rolling or one arm commando crawl. But at nearly 11 months I thought he would have reached this milestone.

When stood up holding on to me, he doesn’t move his legs to ‘walk’ he will bounce.

He is not pulling himself up on to furniture. When he tried to pull up on my I give a little had by placing my hand under his arm pit so he has something else to help him up.

Should I worried? Am I over thinking? Xx
