4 year old boy

My son is very active. Always jumping here and there. He is a ray of sunshine. Today when he was playing around the iron cot he hit his face on it very hardly and his father is taking him on his way to the ER. My mama heart aches so much seeing him crying in pain and hope he doesn’t get a scar from it as it is on his face. I am so scared and feeling lot of hurt myself :( just wanted to vent out.

Pump and dump?

Today is my birthday and I had a glass of white wine at 6 weeks postpartum; do I need to pump and dump my breastmilk?

Newborn trenches

So had my beautiful baby girl a week ago now, me and my partner are having extreme difficulties at night to settle her down to sleep in her crib, she'll literally stay in her cot for 10 mins max and start crying again 😭 we feed her, change her, burp her, stick a hot water bottle in her cot so its warm and put on her night light with white noise and still doesnt work 😭 so me and my boyfriend have to sleep apart and he'll take the baby to the living room and sort her out (feed her, burp her, cuddle her and then she goes to sleep in her nest pod all fine) and then we'll swap shifts basically whilst he goes and catch up on sleep...at this point we are so exhausted bc we try everything to settle her and this seems to be the only thing that works atm 😭🫠🙃 has anyone got any tips or had this problem before? Thankyou ❤️✨️

Is my colostrum ok? 😅

I'm 39 weeks tomorrow and I've been collecting colostrum for about 2 weeks now, not every single day but pretty much every other day, it has got more and more every time and easier to collect each time, im now using my wearable breastpumps to collect as its easier and doesn't cause me any braxton hicks or any problems. Anyway the colour of it is like a milky clear colour? I've only seen others online that are like extremely yellow or creamy in colour? I googled it obviously and it said its normal, but I'm looking for real life people to answer if they've had similar looking colostrum? Thanks!

Stopping night feeds?

When can we drop night feeds?! Or at least go longer than the 3-4 hours? Our baby girl is just over 9 weeks and is gaining weight ok (she did go from 25th percentile at birth to now 9th percentile but is continuing to stay there and gaining ok), we are still feeding her through the night every 3 hours sometimes 4. We wake her up, she’s always fast asleep and I really do think she would continue sleeping if we left her. She’s generally only taking on average around the 610ml ish mark of formula in 24 hours though which is the lower end of what she should be having for her weight? (She last weighed 4.62kg on Thursday). So does this mean we will have to just keep continuing to feed her through the nights? It’s exhausting and we are struggling to keep it up and I’m worried she’s not taking enough formula! 🫩

Anyone’s else’s baby hate burping and is recently finding it hard to pass wind

My baby is 17 days old and mostly formula due to no supply. He’s been spitting up a lot and can’t seem to burp unless it takes over 30 mins or more. Hes also been fussy due to gas issues. Not sleeping more than 2-3 hours at a time. Nervous about my exhaustion not waking me up incase he needs a feed or burp at night.
