Squealing all the time 😂😅

anyone else’s little one just started screaming all the time recently? He’s excited 24/7 and I don’t understand why 😂 his wake windows are getting so long and with him squealing at me for like 5 hours it’s crazy 😂 do I have a mental baby or is it him just learning how to make new sounds etc?

Haha going through the same lol

Honestly I don’t know what to do with him 😂😂 I just don’t know how he’s not tired

Yes! Mine has just learned to squeal and my 5 year old thinks it’s great and joins in too! 🤯

Oh god 😂😂

I wish my one was screaming from excitement. My little one is simply screaming, and I have no clue why 🤣 I don't mean crying type of screaming, but simple screaming. Not excited, not upset, just bloody screaming. And she's got a voice soooo loud, it's actually hurting my ears 🤣🤣

what goes through their minds? 😂😂 little devils

My 6 month othe loves doing this

My little girl has just turned 5 months and screaming, squealing constantly all with a big smile on her face. Must admit does make me smile too 🤣

I am sure she just likes the sound of her own voice!

Hope it just continues during the day and not during the night 😮

Yeah my wee boy is the same xxx

We had a good 2 weeks of non stop squeals. All day, every day 😂😂 he was loving the sound of his own voice. This has calmed now and he’s back to babbling other noises and only squeals when very excited. It was sooooooo loud!

Leaving a stay and play before the tidy up?

I take my daughter to a few stay and plays which are usually 2 hours long. Most of them finish when she would usually be napping and then it will take me a while to get her home and relaxed ready to nap etc. Is it rude to leave early? I think 2 hours is already a long time so I would prefer to leave after 1- 1.5houre but I don't want them to think I'm being rude

Co- sleeping 🥰💕

Can I just say to all those co-sleeping mama’s out there…… you’re doing one of the most natural things possible providing security, love, care and attention to not only your babies needs but your own 💕 It is so right yet you are lead to believe it’s so wrong! Why?

Soak in all the love and cuddles whilst they are small as one day they won’t need us like we need them 🥰💕

I hate the newborn age

Is it normal to actually hate the newborn phase? We are 8 days old so still very new to this and I’m a FTM. I thought I would LOVE having a newborn baby. I’m so overwhelmed and anxious if I’m getting anything right, if she’s happy if she’s fed if she’s gassy if she’s sleeping enough that I’m just not finding much joy in the newborn stage at all. I feel pretty lonely (even though my husband is the biggest support system and my absolute rock). Finding exclusively breastfeeding tricky and sort of wishing away these early weeks so we can get some sort of routine in place! Anyone else the same?

Don't understand the white soft play trend

Is anyone else confused why there are so many white/cream soft plays popping up everywhere. Visually they are so dull and not stimulating for a child. I would never pay the ridiculous prices they ask (more than normal soft play)

Ferber method..it works!

We did the Ferber method last night for my 14 month old son. He’s EBF and would wake several times in the night, he’s start off in his cot and end up in bed with me but need to lay on top of me, his dad would sleep ikn the sofa and it was just a lot for all 3 of us eapeacially since I’m now back at work and he’s at nursery. His dad has been begging for us to do the Ferber but I’ve said no every time because I can’t stand the crying, he’s my angel baby boy and I could never just let him cry for me. I just couldn’t do it. But yesterday, after rocking him for nearly an hour and singing the same song over and over I was just like no. We are doing it tonight. So I fed him, kissed him, cuddled him and said “you are a big boy now. You can do this, I love you and I am just next door. Sleep well my baby.” And left the room. He was screaming but more like shouting. I checked in at 3 minutes, 5 minutes, and then 10 minutes each time saying “you can do this my baby. I love you. Go to sleep” and in the second 10 minute interval I went to check and he was fast asleep. He slept from 22:11pm till 8:00am no wake ups, no night feeds! I was shocked!

Long sleep stretches

I’m not complaining but I’m def concerned , my son sleeps 6-7 hours at night… he’s 7 weeks today. He’s growing healthy weight, everything is fine. But he sleeps 6-7 hours 😭 I worry if this is normal at his age. He’s exclusively breastfed
