The brand honest is amazing!

Anything from ATTITUDE or Pipette

Detergent you can just use a sensitive version or a free and clear of what you’re already using, doesn’t need to be a baby detergent. Just not heavily scented (I don’t even use heavily scented for my clothes before baby) And his baby shampoo/body wash was the Gaia brand, I only needed a drop and the bottle lasted me like a year. Has a nice lavender scent and calms him down for bedtime 🙃

we’ve used burt’s bees, dove baby and pipette for body washes and lotions. they have all been great. for detergent we use all free and clear (any f&c) will be good tho

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?
