Crying when waking?

My LB sobs when he wakes up of a morning, he doesn’t do it with his naps but he really cries in the morning times. He is still asleep and doesn’t open his eyes but it’s been consistent for around 2 weeks now

Not sure but would guess hungry?

he has his feed at 4am and then the next isn’t due til 8am, but he wakes around 7am crying but still asleep

Is there a reason why his feeding is scheduled?

My bubba wakes up crying but normally from trying to pass stool/wind and it kind of startles her

he is bottle fed
, 6oz every 4 hours for his weight

I think at this age the recommendations are feeding on demand over strict schedules, so you could try dream feeding ( my baby dream feeds during the night and first thing in morning, where she is still asleep/ eyes closed) and see if the baby takes the milk and drinks it, then you will know if that’s the reason they are crying or not.

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 😂
