Sleep

Do any of you feel like your babies sleep too much ? And they have smaller wake windows between feeding? My daughter was born at 36+4 now 7 weeks and I feel like she doesn’t stay awake for too long. Shes my second so I’m comparing to my son.

My 10 weeks old doesn't stay awake very long during the day, more in the evening though. She would sleep a lot at 7weeks too

My little boy is the same. He is awake for a bit in the morning and sometimes before going to bed, but most times it’s nappy, milk and back to sleep. He is 7 weeks.

I asked the DR at our 6 week check and she said some babies just like to sleep more. As long as it’s normal for them and they’re waking to eat, as that’s very energy consuming x

Oh thank you ladies for responding !! That’s very reassuring to hear thank you!!

My first was done with sleep by about 10 days old! My second slept for around 23 hours a day until she was 8 weeks old. She now has more energy and needs less sleep (sadly!) than her older sister. My 7 week old seems to be somewhere in between the two. All very different.

Ms Rachel ??

How many of you are putting ms Rachel on??? I’ve just introduced it to my 8 month old and it’s like sorcery. I feel so guilty putting it on because LO don’t take his eyes off the screen, but it’s the only way I’m getting 20/30 minutes during Velcro baby stage. I’ll put it on twice a day for up to 30 mins at a time, the rest of the time we’re out the house, playing with toys or he’s with me doing jobs around the house. Should I even feel guilty?😩

Thoughts on this pram?

I’m 18 weeks pregnant and thinking of prams to get my baby. I saw this on Amazon and it seems affordable, plus the reviews are very positive about the quality of the product. Are there any mamas in the group that got this specific model? If so, how did you find it?

Baby cutlery

Out of curiosity.
If we have to sterilise baby bottles, dummy’s ect.
Do we also sterilise baby cutlery?

Moving while asleep

My 12 week old has been sleeping through the night (8 hours) for the last week and a half and since the 3rd or 4th night he's been wriggling his way to the other end of his crib to the point where his head is cocked to the side
He seems fine but it looks uncomfortable and ive always been told he needs to have his feet touching the bottom of his bed and if I move him back he wakes up.
Has anyone else experienced this? Did you leave it? Are there any potential issues if I do leave it?

Hipp Organic Ready Made Bottles

Has anyone found their baby is sick more using a the ready made bottles vs powder or noticed a change in the colour of their sick when using ready made bottles? I got some to use when we’re away but I’m not sure if they agree with him or it’s something else. For context he’s recently had his 16 week injections & is teething
