So sorry for your loss xxx I know this is easier said than done try and stay positive I had a miscarriage back in June and I am now pregnant again I am almost 9 weeks xx sending hugs xx

Congratulations, did you try again after your first period? How long did it take to get back, if you don't mind me asking xx

yes we did and it took just over 7 weeks

Thankyou, that's what we have been advised to do with needing help with the miscarriage xx

I’m so sorry… I just got home from hospital after a d&c. Thank you for reminding me today there is always hope xx 💕

of course there is always hope, this will be a distant memory in the near future because wel be going for our 12 week scan and see the heart beat of our rainbow baby. Keep going your doing good xxx

you are welcome stay positive and sending hugs xx

I do hope you learn to adapt and grieve. I am very sorry for your loss. Please prepare yourself, though. Pregnancy after loss is incredibly difficult and stressful. My miscarriage is very much not a distant memory and I had trauma flashbacksAl the way through my rainbow Pregnancy and even now I have stress triggers when I had my first period.

It is ALL worth it. But be prepared for it to not be as distant as you may hope for.

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. 🥺

4 month bed time

What time do you put your babies to bed?
What time do you start your 'routine?'
My LO currently goes to bed around 10.30pm, and I know i need to start bringing it forward. Everytime ive tried, it takes longer for my LO to settle.
We are exclusively breastfeeding. Any advice Mamas?

6 month old autistism

My 6 month old makes no eye contact with me and doesn’t respond when I call him. Can this just be a phase or personality trait as apposed to autism

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? 🥲

Baby with chronic congestion

Hi everyone! My 1 year has been a congested baby since birth almost. She breathes through her mouth so often that it wakes her up multiple times at night and she cries and screams and then struggles to go back to sleep. She wakes up every 1-3 hours and sometimes can’t go back to sleep for 2-3 hours!!! Piriton is the only thing that seems to help her sleep mostly through the night but I can’t keep giving her that!!
Does anyone have tips as to have I can do or give her? Has anyone experienced? I have no idea when I’ll get an ENT appointment and I have no idea what he can give a 13 mo :( we are desperate for sleep so any tips are welcome!! We have tried steam inhalation, saline drops, vapour rubs and everything off the counter basically!

Combi feeding advice

Has anyone gone from EBF to combi feeding? Currently do one bottle of EBM per night and they one half formula half breast milk mixed in the day. The other times she still feeds on me. Ideally I want to feed all day via bottle and all night with breast. She’s 7 weeks and takes a bottle well, how long should I leave it before adding another bottle to her daily routine?
