Bras!

About to go back to work and wondering if I can go back to “normal” wired bras? I’ve been wearing nursing bras since baby was born. Will be BF in morning and night but hoping to start weaning him off completely.

I've EBF from birth. Since about 7 months I've start wearing normal bras. We feed for naps, bedtime and first thing in the morning (about 4 times a day) and I wear a normal bra to do so. If they are comfortable, then go for a normal bra

I bought a slightly fancier nursing bra a couple of months ago that was underwired and it’s been totally fine but my god you feel the underwiring after a day following a year without!! Never have I been more ready to take my bra off 😂

Did you get measured whilst BF? I kinda guessed my size and now not sure if I should get measured now or wait till I’ve fully stopped BF but that could be a while

I just used my pre pregnancy bras. They are slightly too small but nothing too uncomfortably so. Personally I'd see how your pre pregnancy bras fit and if they really don't fit it might be worth a couple in a bigger size while you're still BF

I got measured/ fitted for that one. Size was way off what id thought so might be worth popping in somewhere! Treat those boobies after all they’ve been through 😂

I never breastfed but bought and worn maternity bras through pregnancy and still do now and I couldn’t even imagine wearing a ‘fancy’ bra with underwire 🤣🤦🏽‍♀️

Help! First time mum -

I have a 4 month old and now all of a sudden when he’s been asleep for 1hr30/2hrs he will wake up screaming (high pitched) I’ve tried winding him sometimes that helps, I’ve tried bicycle legs & bringing his knees up but that doesn’t seem to help but he brings his knees up himself sometimes but nothing happens. I’ve noticed since the 4 month mark he has started to struggle passing wind downwards! Any tips?

Bath Time

Help! My baby is 3 and a half weeks old. Every bath she goes in quite happy but will only stay like this for a very few mins, if I try to clean her or move her we have tears and after a few mins the same. It's like she is scared. Our current baby bath is quite big should I try a different one? Looking for any suggestions as want her to enjoy bath time not be upset and I'm scared I'm going to make her hate it😢💗

Crying during feeding

Hey mams! My girl is 6 weeks on Monday and is having so much trouble with feeding. It doesn’t happen every feed but more often than not she will start a bottle and just start crying as if she’s in pain and she can’t take the milk. I think it’s trapped wind but I genuinely don’t know what to do it’s so pitiful to see her not be able to feed! She’s formula fed and on HiPP Organic.
Anyone else been in this position? I’m pretty sure it’s just a bit of trapped wind that she needs to fart out but can’t! If anyone has any advice I’d be very grateful as I think I may need to tape my eyelids open soon 😂

No more naps! 10 month old

For a few days now my 10m old has fought her 2 daily naps. Normally her wake windows were 3-4 hours and she is now eventually napping after a 6 hour wake window. Today was only one nap, she skipped the second one. Used to nap like clockwork so I’m wondering if anyone else is experiencing this? Also very unsettled most nights and doesn’t sleep well at all
