Congestion in 7 week old

How to I relieve it so she can breathe better? Her voice also sounded raspy this morning but other than that she seems fine. She’s eating and seems alert as usual.

Did you by any chance have a fan on in the same room overnight?

Yeah, we’ve used it every night since she was born. We have it blowing away from her, on the other side of the room. She shares a bedroom with my spouse and I and it’s mostly used for background noise.

My LO woke with a raspy voice today too. He hadnt been crying but we used the ceiling fan for the first time last night (on the lowest setting) and I wondered if that was the cause.
Maybe the fans have a stronger effect than we think, even when not directly on them?

I use a fan to keep air circulating and put a humidifier in front of it so it blows humid air too 😝 try saline drops in her nose it always clears up my babies stuffy nose

Is this normal?

Is this little red bit on my section scar normal? It’s not oozing anything, doesn’t hurt but it’s the only bit on my scar like it so just curious! (19 days PP)
Thank you in advance! 🥰

Help

I was getting pretty painful period cramps and during those, I had painful lower back cramps. I had these on and off for like a few hours so from about 10:30pm to 1am?

I’ve had no show, or anything like that.

Is this braxton hicks or early labour pains?

Fed up

Anyone else just feeling fed up in general? I just never feel happy anymore. Wake up dreading what the day ahead of us will be like.
Little one will be 6 week tomorrow

Early waters/pre term labour?

I can’t get checked until later today unfortunately. I can’t tell if I’m leaking/starting early. I definitely think I’m having braxton hicks yesterday and today.. i have some pain in my back but she is quite low down so hoping it’s just pressure, baby was a little quieter yesterday but she’s back to more normal movements today, but my underwear just seems to get so wet, especially after going to the bathroom. And I honestly can’t work out the smell, I’m pretty sure it’s just discharge/urine leaking but there’s that worry in my mind a little. Are there any other ways to know/check if it could be the start of it all?

Anyone else felt like this?

Hi, I’m 4 months postpartum, little one sleeps through the night and is formula fed, the last week I’ve felt extremely tired and very hungry! Just wondered if anyone else has felt this way/experienced this?
