Is it bad

I put my daughter in her snuggle but she enjoys my bed sometimes I put no covers near her but her dad leaves causes her to squirm and wake herself up to early so I bring her into bed with me and she passes out is that bad? She’s on her back no cosvss and I’m right beside her keeping her safe she’s on a pillow her whole body?

I wouldn’t say bad no, but depending on her neck position could be possible chance for positional asphyxiation if she is sinking into the pillow - rather than sleeping on a flat surface such as your mattress. I co sleep with my little boy. I follow SS7. But even so, my HV absolutely hates that I do it. Do what is best for you and baby!

like her neck is fine but I only put her on a pillow so I can get the covers out of the way and then she moves to the bed and she’s out like I get up at 6 for this and I keep a hand on her at all times

I cosleep with my daughter in the mornings all the time till I need to get out of bed! I’m not a very heavy sleeper when she is in bed with me and I make sure she is safe. I’ll often times when I can contact nap. My daughter sleeps so much better but most of the time she is in her crib. Mommas got stuff I gotta get done on days off 😂

My daughter wouldn't sleep without a pillow or blanket/swaddle. She's is almost 8 months now and has her own pillow and blanket. I always had an eye on her and was a big "nothing by her and no cosleeping" until I had her and after the first few weeks. She's never had an issue with her pillow or blanket and would always turn on to her tummy. The key thing is just making sure your baby does well with it. Now she can sit up and crawl so it's not as big of a deal now. Every baby is different and if it is working for you and there are no risk signs keep doing it!

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

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?

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?

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 🤣
