!!Swearing!!

Please do not judge, I’m looking for advice and help.

My 2 year old has been swearing at nursery, I’m so ashamed and embarrassed. Assuming his picked it up from older cousins and even his dad watching football.

I really don’t know what to do. I can’t stop crying.

Best to ignore and not draw attention to it

So there's nothing you can do about it now, they've already learnt the words. Personally I would just try not to react and encourage not to swear at people.
So I don't have 'good' or 'bad' words in our house, if my LO stubs his toe on a door for example and says 'fuck that hurts', yeah it does and I just wouldn't react to the word and just respond with, that must really hurt. But if he calls someone a bitch, that's not okay.
He hasnt learnt any yet but alot of my husbands family swear in every sentence, and don't stop despite us asking, so it's only a matter of time for us. Just trying to make them less appealing by making them 'bad' words

When my LO struggles with something she lets out a ‘fuck saaake’ I have never once reacted and ignore it, but it’s now about 3 months down the line and she still does it, so I’ve been trying to encourage her to say fudge. Just hoping it will pass, as do most things!

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😢💗

Big nursing bras!

I’m looking for recommendations for good nursing bras for bigger breasted ladies!

I’m currently in a 38H which seems to be the biggest size done at M&S (UK based mama here) and it’s snug and not as supportive as I’d like. When I look online, they mainly seem to be sized S, M, L, XL etc rather than bra sizes.

Any recommendations please?

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 😂
