I think I’m in the middle of sleep regression now at 3 months.
I’m really struggling with it I can’t lie but nothing we can do just have to ride it out and deal with the sleepless nights again😭😅

There’s no point being anxious about it or worrying what you’ll do, because it may be a total non event for your baby!
And to be honest, sleep changes SO much in the first couple of years. 4mo is the first big change to their sleep cycles, but with big developmental milestones, weaning, teething, general life changes etc etc sleep is likely to be disturbed. It’s all a phase, nothing stays the same for long with babies 😊

Keep reminding yourself every regression means a wonderful new milestone with more independence for the bubba. It will get better. My daughter’s regression last for maybe two weeks at the maximum. It wasn’t as bad as I had expected. Every baby is different.

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? 🥲

Self settling

Any tips or advice of how to teach 6.5month old to self settle? I’m up multiple times in the night to cuddle her back to sleep and put the dummy in. I understand she will wake up and want a cuddle etc but any tips on self settling would be appreciated 🥰

Baby losing weight

Hi all, it's been a long time since I had a baby (my son is 15!). My daughter is 10 days old and was 9lb born, she has since lost weight at every appointment and is at a 12% loss. I am breast feeding every two hours for over an hour and topping her up every feed. I pump and can get 60ml in 10 minutes so I know my supply is okay. Anyone had this before? Can give me some tips? I currently feel like I'm letting my baby down.
