My baby two months old and we still do. His doctor said most need it until at least 4 months old.

I get so frustrated when it comes to burping because my baby hates being burped and then I have to deal with him being gassy and yesterday he got colicky for the first time and I broke down with him. I can’t wait for the burping phase to be over with! Any tips ?

Not until he was walking and holding a bottle by himself. So probably around 10/11 months.

maybe different formula? Gas drops? Talk to his pediatrician as well.

I got him over my shoulder and on sit him on my knee. He doesn’t seem to like any way that I try to burp him.

You could try tummy time on your chest. So you be in a half reclining position about 45 degrees. But baby on your chest and be tummy to tummy. This was it's a bit of everything. Cuddles, tummy time, closeness but still a little pressure on him to burp. You can put a burp cloth on you so if he does spit up. And and you still pat his back or massage it. My daughter loves this when she can't get a burp out

a lot of times when I burp my son he won’t burp but if I have him on my knee I hold under his chin and the kinda push in on his back so he’s completely straight up and just hold that position for about 20 seconds he will burp and if he doesn’t then I continue to pat his back and then try again I don’t know if that makes sense it’s kinda hard to explain but that’s the only way I can get him to burp

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

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

New born

Finally had my baby girl via C-section on the 18th, everything has been so far. But I’ve noticed she’s very fussy and cries a lot. I’ve been trying to exclusively breastfeed. The lactation consultant at the hospital said I did look like I’m making enough milk for her. She was latching on good at the hospital and now here at home, she doesn’t seem to want to latch at all. She’s been crying a lot and very fussy. I’m just wondering is she’s colic or like maybe she just doesn’t want the breast anymore?

4 month bed time

What time do you put your babies to bed?
What time do you start your 'routine?'
My LO currently goes to bed around 10.30pm, and I know i need to start bringing it forward. Everytime ive tried, it takes longer for my LO to settle.
We are exclusively breastfeeding. Any advice Mamas?
