For those who are breastfeeding, have you completely weaned off yet?

Still down to one feed, the bedtime night feed. She hasn’t been receptive at all to whole milk.

Have you tried toddlers formula?

I’m at 13 months down to 1 feed but sometimes two if she’s fussy lol . I have been doing toddlers formula and it’s been going well :

Dang that's awesome! She still latches like 4-8x a day depending on the day and 1x over night. Even tho she eats so much solid food during the day 🤷🏽‍♀️ She won't take any kind of milk in any kind of cup. And won't take a bottle of breastmilk even 😅

I'm not at all worried about transitioning to milk tho. She eats a balanced diet. But I would love to have my boobies back one day soon 🫠

She won’t take any cows milk or toddler formula 😭😭 Gets super fussy every time I offer and hates bottles 😩

i nurse my son to sleep for his nap and bedtime thats the only time
how do u get ur baby down for naps?

One thing I did not know as a first time mom was the nipple size change when the baby gets older. At 7 months I was trying to give my baby milk with a size p /1 nipple not knowing that it was the wrong size for her age lol . I had no idea since I exclusively breastfed for the entire time

Try goats milk it’s sweeter than cows milk and more similar to breast milk.

I tried goat milk. She didn't spit it out, which was an improvement. But she sure did shove that cup right back into my hand and look at me like I betrayed her lmao

I am in a similar situation. She will happily nurse but refuses the bottle. If I don’t breastfeed during the day , she goes without milk the whole day. Eats well, but I am concerned about the mill intake.

Every time I take the boob away I always regret it 😭😭😭 my baby eats everything I give him. He drinks water, loves water!! I have milk I give him, I've tried toddlers formula. He will literally ditch anything I give him for the boob. And I'm to tired and stay at home so sometimes I need a bit of a savings grace 😭😭

My son doesn’t like whole milk. Drinks maybe one cup a day of it

I’m still nursing on demand and nurse for naps and bedtime. He wakes once to nurse around 5/5:30AM

Sleeping bag

8 week old in sleeping bag for first time as big enough! Do you feed your child in the night whilst in the sleeping bag or taken them out, feed then transfer back to sleeping bag before putting down?

Leaky nappy help

What nappies are you using to stop leaks?? We use pampers ultra dry size 5, and for the past few nights he has lashed through and we’ve had to completely change him during the night. Last night he leashed through twice!! He sleeps on his front and stays leaks through at the top of his leg where the tabs connect. Didn’t know whether to size up, he has a bit of a belly on him but he’s smack in middle of weight guidance so shouldn’t need too

Not drinking

I’m going crazy. Baby born at 2.26kg. Slow to put on weight. This last week hasn’t put on any. Been trying to feed him at night and he’s not interested at all. Fast asleep. During day he will have 5 minute gulps and that’s it. He don’t cry for milk. I’ve got to keep offering to him. I try to offer it every hour but I don’t know what I’m doing. HV said nutrition comes after 5 minutes so I should pump first and then give him. I find it so hard. I tried to pump one boob nothing came. The other abit came. Tried giving him express he’s not interested in that too. Sometimes he will go for a longer a feed but not long at all. He’s 4 months and is currently 5.46kg. I have no family or friend support here and wish I had a cook, cleaner and nanny to help with everything so I can concentrate on the little one. I don’t know what’s wrong with him but I’m loosing it. It doesn’t help that my also stressed generally about my relationship and life circumstances. Any advice that will work. Any comfort you can give. I’m fed up. Is this regression - not feeding. He’s fast fast asleep. I’ve been trying to push the nipple in but that mouth is closed shut. I took some clothes off. Changed his nappy but he’s still asleep. Please help

6 month old autistism

My 6 month old makes no eye contact with me and doesn’t respond when I call him. Can this just be a phase or personality trait as apposed to autism

5.30am wakeups 😫😴

My 15 week old has started waking up about 5.30am and is really hard to settle back down - it’s like he thinks it’s time to wake up for the day. He used to go to bed at 9pm and was up at 8am but now he goes to bed between 7.30-8pm as he’s knackered by then but waking up at 5.30am😴. Any advice to get him to sleep a little longer in the morning?! Even an extra hour would be lovely 🤣
