Nappies

Can anyone recommend a brand of nappies that my newborn won’t leak through? I think wee is leaking straight out the side 🫣. Tried Pampers and Aldi so far, size 1 and size 2 but no difference.

He’s a boy and weighed 8lb 3 oz at birth, 8 days old currently.

I LOVE cloth. He’s never leaked or had a blowout in cloth. It’s not for everyone, no one can say they “love” disposables lol but thousands of mamas “love” cloth. 💁🏻‍♀️

We found Sainsbury’s good at that age.
Are you pulling out the elastic & ruffles around the legs when you mutt them on?

We also found Sainsbury's great for the newborn stage, not so much once we got to size 3.

Sainsburys is soo good at that age! X

Also, are you making sure his wee is pointed down when putting a clean nappie on?

I always used a size bigger and never had a problem with leaks until later during the night. So now, I’m using two size bigger pull up pads. But I recently noticed that the reason my baby boy was leaking at night was because he was cold. So i dress him better at night and it solved the issue.

thank you - yes pulling out the elastic and ruffles

We loved sainsburys size 1, 2 and 3, then preferred Aldi 4 onwards and currently on 5+

Tesco size 1 + 2 were great, since 3+ weren't amazing though so we've just moved to rascal and friends x

The mumma bear ones on Amazon are really good , haven’t had a leak yet unlike the pampers we were using before 🩵❤️

Lidl and Asda are the best for us

I found ALDIs brand up to size 3 are great. Never had a blow out.

I used asda brand for when he was in newborn and size 1 I just over lapped the tabs to make it tighter I only had a leak here and there due to it not pointing down but other wise been good. I use any brand now mostly tesco asda and Lidl and all been fine he’s in size 3 now I dont have a specific brand as I just get them in whatever shop I’m in x

Sainsburys, Tescos or Morrisons are pretty good

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.

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?

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😢💗

Strange question

Hello. I would identify myself as asexual but yes i am married and i have a child. But now that ive had my baby. I think its solidified that im done having sex. I feel bad as my partner keeps asking me but i just dont want to. Any advice on what i can do? Any other asexual moms out there? I guess this could be confusing but im not huge on being bound by a label. I have just always felt it represented me best since highschool.
