For those who co-sleep...

How do you manage your LO's rolling around at night in your bed? Mine has just turned 8 months and has been rolling around everywhere for the last couple of weeks...usually she sleeps in her cot but last 2 weeks she has been settling better in bed with me! I've had to put my pregnancy pillow around her so I know she can't roll off the bed but also worried that I'm hindering her rolling skills
What do you guys do?
I don't want her in bed with me forever but for now it's working and once this regression is over I'm sure I can get her back in her cot...she naps fine in her cot in the daytime

I have put our cot as a side car to the bed so she starts off in there on her own and then throughout the night she ends up rolling to me, also is there if shes in the bed with you and then rolls back onto her cot. She seems to be going longer on her own each night. Maybe thats worth a try to get her back in her crib xx

I have a bed rail on our bed to stop her rolling off x

Can someone pls help i keep making this post and nobody is responding

My boyfriend booked a trip for us to go to mexico for a week as my push present. I have severe anxiety leaving my 7 month old with my mom. I know she will be in good hands but she’s exclusively breast fed for the most part but accepts bottles just fine. i have all my pumping parts packed and will pump when baby normally eats but i don’t want baby to forget me or have latch issues when i return!! any mommas ever experience this?

Postpartum

I’m only 3 days postpartum (FTM) and already have extremely bad anxiety. I’m crying every night, as I think of another night of no sleep. My baby will not settle in his cot, he cries every moment we put him down unless in his chair rocker. So me and my partner are having to alternate after 3/4 hours of being awake with him downstairs. I’m trying everything to get him to settle. It’s a load of overwhelming stress. I’m 23, I was desperate for a baby and now I have one and feel completely useless. I miss it just being me and my partner.

When does it get better?

I was crying on the phone with the perinatal mental health team today and the lovely lady, bless her, kept assuring me that it gets better. I kept telling her I hope so because people have been saying that since having my LO and it just feels like it keeps getting worse. She assured me it gets better....

Crawling

Did anyone’s little one start crawling yet? I feel like we are falling behind but really have no idea. I’m trying to introduce more floor time but it’s been rough because of having hardwood floors and our 80 lb oblivious to life dog. I got us a carpet for the living room and trying to put the dog out more when the weather allows. She sits like a pro and will roll to get the things she needs😅 but no real signs of crawling yet.

I bloody hate reflux!

How much milk would you say this is?( after a 6oz bottle) My 3 month old is bunged up, full of yet another cold and it's made her reflux worse.

She's already on gaviscon but that's the most shes ever spat up in one go. She's also been teething for the last few weeks too 🙄
