Frustrated with partner! Absolutely exhausted 😢😢

Need to rant over here!
I have a 16 month old daughter who has extra needs due to neuromuscular condition she’s not your average baby and needs a lot of care like she is non verbal, she Isn’t mobile at all! Unable to feed herself etc, I now have a 2 week old baby boy which was by c-section so I’m still trying to recover properly! Having 2 kids I know I just need to plod on really! But my partner works from like 4/5pm till midnight maybe 1am at a push and this week he’s just sleeping in till midday then when he goes out for odd jobs that need to be done or his haircut he just swans off but if I want to go and get some bits I’m expected to take the kids with me everywere I bloody go! I even said about me getting a bath yesterday afternoon as I hadn’t changed my clothes or even brushed my teeth yet! His reply was “ aww I was just about to go on the computer 😔 I feel like I’m just doing everything like feeding one kid then the other and back to the other! My eldest is awake like 4am most mornings and my baby is cluster feeding at night as breast fed. I’m honestly exhausted 🥱 I love my babies but why do men seem to think they don’t have to help when in work! He goes to me yesterday “we need to order the shopping and so some washing tomorrow” like I don’t do enough around here 😢

Peace of mind please

I shot up at 4am last night and had the urge to check my little boy who sleeps in a cot next to our bed.
For the first time he has rolled over and was sleeping on his stomach, my heart dropped.
I was so scared that I picked him up to make sure he was okay and he was just sound asleep…

What are we supposed to do if they roll over in their sleep?! He’s almost 6 months old and I’m prettified of him rolling and it being a different outcome if I don’t wake up..

Just need some peace of mind that this is
okay?

Baby slept all night

Sorry, I just need to post this... my little boy is 12w5d and he slept through from 9:30-6am, woke for a feed and went back to sleep until 8:30!!! I can't believe it. I was obviously up every few hours checking on him and making sure he was ok, so I didn't get a full nights sleep 🤣 but I'm so pleased for him! 🎉🥳 (not a brag btw, I'm just so pleased and wanted to share)

Car seat

This car seat says 0-14 months. We bought it when my baby was around 5/6 months when he grew out of the old one and the lady who sold it to us in smyths toy shop said it can be used up until 4 I believe but why does the sticker on it say 0-14 months then? Does anyone e else have this seat the joie 360 spin?

moving to cows milk

hi! my boy is one next week and changing to cows milk is really confusing me. he is fed to sleep sith formula three times a day, before his two naps and bedtime. how do i change to cows milk, especially if ideally the cows milk shouldn’t go in a bottle? i just so lost and quite dusted by the whole process. i have a munchkin miracle 360 cup and he can drink through a straw or open cup but before bed seems very disruptive to the routine

🥲

Do any mums who breastfeed and co-sleep — especially once baby doesn’t really need night feeds — ever let their baby cry for a bit in the pram to fall asleep, just so you can have a few minutes to yourself?
A friend suggested this to me, but honestly it breaks my heart. I tried it once and it did work, but I’m not sure I could do it all the time. She’s a childcare teacher and said with sleep training you sometimes let them cry for up to 30 minutes… but I don’t know how people do it.
She also mentioned that a lot of mums here on the Gold Coast, Australia do it during the day when their baby’s tired — letting them fall asleep in the pram so they can have a coffee or catch up with friends without having to rush home for a nap.
I just feel like it might not be good for their nervous system and it doesn’t sit right with me… but then again, I’m also a first-time mum.

Would you consider a baby not talking at the age of 1 a developmental delay?

Based off a recent post, someone said that a child that doesn’t speak at the age of 1 is developmentally delayed.

Do you agree?
