12 week old angry feeding

Did anyone else find their baby had a big issue breastfeeding around 12 weeks? My baby has become very fussy all of a sudden when feeding. Starts off feeding okay but then starts screaming, hitting me, pulling off a lot and then won't settle. I don't really know what to do or if this is normal.

She did fart a few times which made her a bit angry.. and she been quite gassy since her vaccines.

My little one is doing this with the bottle at the moments it's driving us crazy. He kind of tries to hold the bottle but then shoves it up his nose and gets angry he can't latch properly but doesn't want to just calm down and let me feed him. The only way I've managed a feed today is with either my husband holding his hands or little one holding his muslin he's gotten weirdly attached to to keep his hands busy

Yessssss it's driving me crazy! It gets worse when she's not napped well but it's so frustrating. I often give up and burp her for a bit and then try again after 10 mins or so...sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't 🤷‍♀️ It's sore sometimes though when she angry latches 😭

Yes this is totally normal for 12 weeks !

She is barely napping and feeds really short periods and gets super angry. It's so exhausting and making me feel like she hates me 😞

I swear you could be describing my life right now except mine is almost 15 weeks rather than 12 😩

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😢💗

Don’t want to leave my first born😭😭😭

Anyone else extremely sad and anxious to leave their first born😭

He’s 2 and we have never not put him to bed or be here for when he wakes up😭

I’m so sad and anxious about leaving him

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 😂

Sleeping

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
