Baby having night feeds again

My boy is 15 weeks this week, been a really good sleeper - having his last bottle at 8pm then sleeping until 7 waking up the odd time stiring but straight back to sleep.

Now all of a sudden he’s back to the newborn days - wanting multiple night feeds and stiring/waking sooo much.
He has been fussy in the day the last week or so. Could this be sleep regression or anything else?
Anyone else who’s had this experience will he just gradually stop wanting night feeds again?

This was us last night!! My LB is 15 weeks today and has been sleeping 8/9pm until 7am most nights for weeks now!

Last night he didnt go down till near 11 after a full 5oz bottle, woke at 2.30 looking another bottle took another 5oz, stirred and needed resettled at 3.30 then again at 5.30 and then woke again at 7.30 and had 6oz😅

Im a zombie today lol, knew it was coming but just hoped it wouldnt🥲😂😂

bless you girl, I’m feeling the struggle today too..praying it won’t be too long and we can both have our good sleepers back🤣 let hope for a better night tonight!🤞🤞🤞

We had a few rough nights last week (last Sunday was 6 wake ups!!!! No feeds though just rock back to sleep) then a few nights of 2-3 wake ups with screaming with teeth I think, I thought this would be us now for weeks and weeks and I was petrified lol but she went back to 6,7,9 hours and then 10 hours last night! I was like you guys, been getting 7-9 hours for the past like 8 weeks so I was like death warmed up but thankfully she is back on track again for now lol so it might just be a bit up and down!

aww you must be feeling like a new woman now you’re back to those sleeps! I’ll hold out hope too🤣 how old is your little one?

Completely- thank god!! 😂 16 weeks. Hope he settles for you soon! xx

Over supply of milk

I am nearly 5weeks postpartum and I have such a big over supply of BM.
Has anyone donated / sold their supply, if so where do you recommend for this?

AITA

In the uk there is an outbreak of meningitis, in a specific area mainly. My BD has family from that area and decided to go and meet up with them, I said if he does then he cannot have contact with the kids for 7-10 days after incase he picks anything up. Am I being over dramatic? I reallyyy don’t want my young kids getting anything serious

Baby clothes

Just out of curiosity, why do parents love zipper onesies?

Don’t get me wrong, I tried zipper ones it’s easy to zip in and out when putting it on the first time and taking it out, but I find it difficult when changing diapers especially when baby is asleep.

I prefer those kimono style buttons where it’s easy to button or too down button with crotch snaps.

Is everyone thinking the same or different? Lol

This might rattle some people

Ok, this might get a bit long, and a bit bumpy, so get comfy and buckle up.

So about a week or 2 ago, there was a post on here regarding sleepovers. Not letting their child go to them as you can't trust who'll be at the house etc.

Now, given recent incidents in nurseries and schools, plus my own experience back in the 90s, I am more concerned about sending my child to nursery and later school than I am to a friend's house for a sleep over.

The other day a man was jailed for abusing children at the nursery he worked at. A woman has been arrested for sleeping with an underage boy and then getting pregnant by a different underage boy while on bail for the first offence.

Young girls and boys get sexually harassed and bullied when at school, not all of them. But more than you think. And not just by other kids, but by adults who we as parents are trusting to look after our kids.

A sleepover, is a more controlled environment, with only a handful of people coming into contact with your child. A school, a club etc there can be 100s of people coming into contact with your child.

I was targeted at 7 years old by the owner of a prominent private school. Thankfully, I wasn't SA'd. In year 5 of primary school, I started to develop early, I was harassed by the boys and teachers made remarks about how my uniform didn't fit right, always "adjusting it" around my chest and legs.

Years 7-9 of secondary school were hell. But it was all under the guise of "we're just messing around". A teacher twanging my exposed bra strap (none uniform day) is not "messing around".

Boys pinning me down trying to rip open my shirt to see my breasts.

I fear for my daughter. I hope she takes after my father's family, flat chested.

We need to educate all our children, what is acceptable behaviour. And to come to us, as their parents should ANYTHING happen.

Car seat

No idea which car seat to get next. Please hit me with your recommendations, 1year+ (preferably rear facing or 360). Thank you 🫶🏻

At this point I’m not enjoying motherhood

My 22 month old is horrendous at the moment🫣 biting, hitting, pushing, pulling and shoving not only adults but children he also wants what other children have and will just snatch it away from them.

We repeat ‘nice hands’ ‘be gentle’ ‘let’s share’ etc

But how do I make him understand what he’s doing isn’t very nice? At the end of the day I feel like I’ve just been saying his name all day and nothing else.

What can I do?
