Is your baby in the nonstop shirt grabbing phase?

My son clings to my shirt ALLLLL day. He will be playing with toys with one arm stretched out grabbing my shirt. When he falls asleep he grabs it over and over as a soothing technique I think. This all started about a month ago when he got sick and cut his first tooth. He's also a thumb sucker and will grab my shirt with his hand and then hold it while he sucks his thumb. My poor shirts lol. Any 2nd+ time moms remember when this phase ended? 😅😩

My daughter is into crawling to me if I am out of sight and grabbing on my pant legs sometimes she stands up to hold me hostage 😆

My baby girl does this to me too all the time - no idea when it ends either

Oh no! Mine pets me especially when she’s falling asleep. It doesn’t sound bad at first but after a few minutes it’s SO overstimulating.

My baby is about to be 8 months and she just started a couple weeks ago with the shirt grabbing 😅

Help! First time mum -

I have a 4 month old and now all of a sudden when he’s been asleep for 1hr30/2hrs he will wake up screaming (high pitched) I’ve tried winding him sometimes that helps, I’ve tried bicycle legs & bringing his knees up but that doesn’t seem to help but he brings his knees up himself sometimes but nothing happens. I’ve noticed since the 4 month mark he has started to struggle passing wind downwards! Any tips?

Breastfeeding

Does it ever feel better? The actual feeding part of it is going really well and baby boy is growing so well. I’m struggling with how my boobs feel day to day - it’s really getting me down most days. The let downs make me feel awful and sounds silly but, I am also really missing not wearing a bra! 9 weeks postpartum and still getting fairly engorged, even with comfort pumping.

Any advice or just shared stories would help. I’m so torn between carrying on because I enjoy the feeding side of it or switching to formula.

Bath Time

Help! My baby is 3 and a half weeks old. Every bath she goes in quite happy but will only stay like this for a very few mins, if I try to clean her or move her we have tears and after a few mins the same. It's like she is scared. Our current baby bath is quite big should I try a different one? Looking for any suggestions as want her to enjoy bath time not be upset and I'm scared I'm going to make her hate it😢💗

Big nursing bras!

I’m looking for recommendations for good nursing bras for bigger breasted ladies!

I’m currently in a 38H which seems to be the biggest size done at M&S (UK based mama here) and it’s snug and not as supportive as I’d like. When I look online, they mainly seem to be sized S, M, L, XL etc rather than bra sizes.

Any recommendations please?
