Leaking boobs overnight

What are you mummas wearing during night that is comfortable and helps not wetting yourself, the bed, the baby and so on? 😅 my baby is 9 weeks old, I don't know if this will stop or it will be like that all the time that I will breastfeed 🤷‍♀️

I bought reusable / washable pads off Amazon x

As above they're a god send

Can you put them on t-shirt, vest or you still have to wear a bra? I am using the disposable ones with a sports bra but I am feeling so uncomfortable 😕

I just used to put a towel underneath and lay topless so that I was comfortable

I wear bras like this with reusable pads underneath

Also I was leaky AF with my first baby but it does die down, it won't be like that the whole time you breastfeed x

I got some sleep bras from Amazon and put breast pads in. I actually forget I am wearing these bras, super soft and comfy

I wear these (really comfy) https://babygo.uk/products/sleep-bra and the lasinoh reuseable pads

I wear bras all the time at the minute and breast pads.
I was stood after a shower the other day contemplating if I could get away with not putting a bra on for a bit to give myself a small break - then I heard droplets hitting the floor and realised it was my leaky boobs - my bodies way of telling me absolutely not 😂😂

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? 🥲

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?

Dummies🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️

Has anyone got any tips on how to GET RID of dummies😂🤦🏼‍♀️ my little girl is obsessed and i have no idea where to start!!

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.
