What is your baby sleeping in?

I put my baby in just a nappy last night but worried she might get cold. She’s usually in a vest or vest and sleepsuit. Is this ok? It’s between 25 degrees and 27 degrees in her room with the window open.

I’ve been putting my little girl down in just a nappy, her room was nearly 29 degrees. She cried out in the night when she gets cold and I just put a 1 tog sleeping bag on her and she goes back to sleep. They’re much better being too cold than too hot

Just a nappy normally only recommended from 27and above. They recommend a sleeveless vest aswell and 0.5tog as highest

Just a vest and we have the cooler on but still the room temp is 28+ we keep it away from LO so it's not directly on her.

We just done a nappy and 1tog sleeping bag, he wont sleep without his sleeping bag. He slept from 7:30pm until 6:30am so he was fine. We also had the fan at his door

Baby will cry if they get cold, so don’t worry! They won’t cry if they overheat, which can be dangerous. You can add more layers in the night if they wake up cold 😊

Her room was 28 but she was in just a vest and nappy. We have the fan circulating in the corner of her room too.

Also, we’ve left his door slightly ajar with a desk fan blowing into his room. Don’t put a fan pointing directly at baby as it can make it hard for them to regulate their temperature, but the fan on the lowest setting is just helping to keep the air moving and cooler.

His room is 27 window open but we did a very light vest and 0.5 tog

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?

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?
