Bottles

This might be a really silly question, but what have you all done with the bottles your baby no longer uses? We have a lot of smaller size mam bottles and teats that are useless to us now and it's weird for me to just throw them away

Haven’t gotten rid of any yet but I did buy an extra set of Dr Browns on Vinted, so you could try selling there?

Vinted or charity shop

I threw mine away…

I think my partner threw ours away 🙈 I wanted to pop them in the charity shop but he said it was weird and no one would buy them. It was easier for me to just say "do whatever" than deal with them.. 😬

@Laura @Allie I did think vinted tbh! Thank you!

@Michaella I'm such a horder and have emotional attachment to everything so this is why I struggle 🤣

@Louise I like this approach! 🤣 although knowing my other half, they'll live on the kitchen side till I do something about them 😅

Keep or donate the bottles, chuck the teats if they have been used and you won't be using them again. Most people won't buy secondhand teats online x

I threw my teats and kept bottle cus I’m pregnant.
I would sell them if you want to or give away but if I did I wouldn’t sell teats. Someone will buy them and use them and it’s recommended to not reuse them xx

Most towns have a “freecycle”page on Facebook where you can give things away/get things from other people for free, you could see if your town has one

Mine are in the cupboard

Charity shops can’t sell them as they are classed as a bio product apparently. I worked in one when I was in school and the amount that got thrown away was disgusting. See if you can donate them to a womens shelter as long as they are free from any milk stains and damage they may take them from you. Or even an animal’s shelter to bottle feed kittens or puppies

I just put ours on Facebook market place for £2 each and someone bought them they had literally been used for about 8 weeks only

I’ve not gotten rid of them MAM ones yet but I sold some nanobebe ones I never used on vinted, might do the same with these too

I've stored my smaller bottles away for the time being incase we have another baby in future then will only need to buy brand new teats for them. ( Mam bottles)

As mentioned above some people sell their old bottle necks on Vinted.

Standing???

Anyone else’s 7 month old standing up and trying to take steps??? My son can fully stand without support and is now trying to take steps. I feel like it’s too early?…

Excuse the mess, I’m doing a late night deep clean and he’s doing the opposite of helping 😂

Deodorant

Ladies what deodorant are we all using?

Since the sun has finally remembered to exist and we've been going on more walks I STINK. I smell like I've been laying on the beach in the sun covered in oil all day. All just after going for a walk.

I know a lot of people struggle with this postpartum but it's so embarrassing!

I just can't seem to find one that works for me?

Help!?!

Sleeping 5 months

My baby is 5 months today, his been a wake up once a night for milk since 3 months old. Very luckily i know. For the last couple of days we are having lots of waking up but his moan crying( not crying crying) if that makes sense. If we give him a cuddle he will happily be straight asleep in seconds.

Have we hit the 4 month sleep regression late?
Anyone else in this phase?
We are also teething could it be this?
Help and suggestions please

Thank you in advance

Regression

Is anyone else struggling? I haven’t slept in days. She’s gone from sleeping 9-10 hour stretches to up every hour. I’m so exhausted. I suffer from anxiety and I need sleep otherwise it triggers me and I have panic attacks. How long will it last? I’m soothing, giving a dummy, I put her down awake but drowsy, she’ll drop off for an hour max. I’m trying so hard to not show my panic as I know it’ll rub off on her but I genuinely cannot take this anymore.. how long is this going to last? Is it up to 6 weeks? Even a longer stretch for the first sleep will do me but I can’t even get that.. she’ll only contact nap in the day so I can’t even get a nap in then. Please help me

Waking baby up for their last feed?

Hi guys. So my baby was due in October but born in September, he is now 6 months old. It's nearly 11:45 and hes still asleep, I'm not sure whether to wake him for his night feed or let him sleep? He does usually wake himself up but think he may be getting full? Any help is appreciated 😊
