Tantrums

My boy is 9 month old today and for the past week or so he seems to be having his first little tantrums! Usually when I’ve stopped him trying to touch things he shouldn’t or go places he can’t go! Hitting/slapping with both hands, throwing himself on the floor, angry expression! He’s only tiny and obviously just feeling some big emotions but damn the slaps hurt sometimes 😂 anyone else got a boxer on their hands!?

My little girl has also started tantrums. 9 months. I just try to ignore her but it’s hard !

it’s so embarrassing out in public when he goes for my face!!!

Oh my god was about to post this myself. Since he turned 9months 1 week ago, severe tantrums!! Normally a happy moving little boy. Pleased I'm not alone and hopefully a phase x

I know I had such a placid little boy and now gosh he’s a grumpy pants! I agree.. hopefully a phase! X

Oh yes we have this too. She growls/shouts/screams when she can’t have something, and if I’m in reach she’ll try and hit/bite 😂 all good fun

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?

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?

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 🥰
