Anyone started nursery with hight contact baby?

My LG still nap only after breastfeeding (even if always in combi with bottle) and since 3/4 months refused totally the pacifier.
I am scared she will not sleep anymore starting the nursery. Any experience..?
I except her to learn slowly to sleep with the other kids but at the same time my fear is that is too young at 1 y old. What do you think??

Mine is fed to sleep too or rocked. To be honest, she doesn’t sleep great at nursery although they do put the effort in.

She was doing two naps of 30 - 45 min or so. Now, some days she does 45-1hr over one nap.

She’s been in a month so I’m giving her time. Other than that, she is thriving x

My son has been at nursery for a month now, started at 10 months. At home he contact naps and feeds to sleep, never had a dummy, totally reliant on me to sleep. He naps in a pram at nursery for them fine and has since day 1. At home he hates the pram so we have always worn him. Nursery staff are magical and it's a different place so they seem to be different with them. I know it's impossible to not worry but I'm sure she will be fine and will adjust to nursery as well.

When do things get easier?

As we entered the 9-12 month stage, my son started crawling and pulling himself up. He also became more clingy and does not play alone, still doesnt sleep through the night, and this week has been sick (so EVERYTHING amplified). I am tired and overwhelmed. Please lie and tell me things get better. 🥺

Colostrum storing?

Has anyone successfully extracted colostrum before the baby’s born? Apparently it gets produced from 16w pregnant and you can start storing it in the freezer but I’m 34w looking at my nipples and the syringes on amazon wondering how it works?? Like what did you use and did it hurt? 🥲

Self settling

Any tips or advice of how to teach 6.5month old to self settle? I’m up multiple times in the night to cuddle her back to sleep and put the dummy in. I understand she will wake up and want a cuddle etc but any tips on self settling would be appreciated 🥰

Baby losing weight

Hi all, it's been a long time since I had a baby (my son is 15!). My daughter is 10 days old and was 9lb born, she has since lost weight at every appointment and is at a 12% loss. I am breast feeding every two hours for over an hour and topping her up every feed. I pump and can get 60ml in 10 minutes so I know my supply is okay. Anyone had this before? Can give me some tips? I currently feel like I'm letting my baby down.

Breastfeeding

Does it ever feel better? The actual feeding part of it is going really well and baby boy is growing so well. I’m struggling with how my boobs feel day to day - it’s really getting me down most days. The let downs make me feel awful and sounds silly but, I am also really missing not wearing a bra! 9 weeks postpartum and still getting fairly engorged, even with comfort pumping.

Any advice or just shared stories would help. I’m so torn between carrying on because I enjoy the feeding side of it or switching to formula.
