Leaking nappies, do we need a bigger size?

Hey guys. Our boy weighs 17.4lb and wears Lidl nappies. I've noticed they are starting to look a bit small on him and he is also leaking through bedtime. Any advice is helpful :)

Yeah we always size up at night and I don’t do her vest up anymore as I found as the nappy was expanding it’s was pushing against the vest which caused gaps

As soon as my LB started leaking through the night I upped a nappy size. You could also up his vest size - sometimes if they get tight around the edge of the nappy, the vest can displace the frills and the elastic bit which can cause leaking x

Aw great thank you guys :) will give this a go x

We do pampers at night only and it stops leaks x

We use Pampers at night, they seem to hold more even in a smaller size (Size 2 Pampers but size 3 Morrisons in the day)

Pampers Baby Dry do a 4+ and 5+ version which is meant for nights as they have extra absorption

We were having leaking nappies overnight (use size 4 Aldi nappies). What fixed it was changing to pampers pull-ups overnight. Not had a single leak since we changed a few weeks ago x

The only nappies that have worked for us are aldi nappies x

Vanilla extract

Has anyone used alcohol free vanilla in their babies formal to help them drink?
I’m 100% sure my baby refuses her bottles as she doesn’t like the taste of it!

Just anxious to try it, don’t want her to get used to it and then refuse bottles again after two weeks of using (correct me if I’m wrong but I’ve read you use it for 2 weeks max)

TIA 🙂

Car seat crying

My 6 month old PANICS the second I put him in a car seat and screams, cries, chokes and recently even projectile vomited on a 14 minute drive. It’s gotten to the point I don’t even bring him out unless it’s to a doctors appointment. I’m a stay at home mom with no family in my state and it has been very isolating. We’ve tried 3 different car seats with no improvement. Has anyone had a baby who hated the car seat? Any advice? This started at 3 months. I will add it does seem worse when he’s tired. He does cry on every trip though. He only contact naps and co sleeps so he reaches for me and will not sleep in the car seat.

Sex post C section

Hi ladies I’m 4 weeks 5 days postpartum and I had a C section. I’m not bleeding properly anymore just some brownish discharge stuff that starts on and off. I’d like to do the deed with my partner; is it okay to do so or shall I wait the full 6 weeks. I feel up for it but also worried because the advice is 6-8 weeks.

When did you circumcise your baby?
If you DID NOT or DO NOT have a circumcised son DO NOT comment this post is not for you!

Did you wait a certain amount of time or have it done immediately?
Again respectfully, this is only for the parents who choose to do so.
opinions about how not necessary it is will not be appropriate for this post. Thank you in advance. 🩵
