Bath time

My little one has never seemed to mind bath time (still looks slightly baffled at what’s going on) but also seems really chilled, but he seems to absolutely hate getting out, I’ve tried to make it nice and cosy and do massages etc after but he cries so much when getting out. Anyone else get this?

Yeah same, my baby loves bath time but hates coming out and will scream until she’s dressed and back in my arms.

Yeah we have this and it's frustrating because he loves being in the bath so much how he is after kind of ruins how chill he is when he's in! Had our first time this week where he didn't cry and fuss afterwards but I did nothing differently🤣

I’m glad I’m not alone in this! yess I had it once where he didn’t but also did nothing different. I’m almost convincing myself he maybe likes the bath so much he just doesn’t want to get out🤣 I mean no one likes that part.. but it does really take away the nice side of bath time for him and me.

Our little boy absolutely hates getting out of the bath. I end up having to latch him on to calm him. It's usually a bath, towel, and boob😂

I’ve done this too!!! 🤣He always has boob as soon as he’s ready anyway.. so I’m like when will you learn this always ends in your favourite thing🤣

They just don’t like being cold used to being lovely and warm in the womb! 🥰

We had this too! I found if you start draining bath when they’re still in it so they are gradually coming out of water instead of a sudden transition this helped sometimes!xx

Leaky nappy help

What nappies are you using to stop leaks?? We use pampers ultra dry size 5, and for the past few nights he has lashed through and we’ve had to completely change him during the night. Last night he leashed through twice!! He sleeps on his front and stays leaks through at the top of his leg where the tabs connect. Didn’t know whether to size up, he has a bit of a belly on him but he’s smack in middle of weight guidance so shouldn’t need too

My little one is struggling with sleep

Hey! I'm in need of some advice please girls! My little boy is 20 months turns 21 months in 2 half weeks. He use to sleep through the night now he is waking up every single night in the early morning, I've had to transition him to a toodler bed as he kept climbing out his cot. Just need some advice on what I can do to help him get back in to a sleep pattern?

When do things get easier?

As we entered the 9-12 month stage, my son started crawling and pulling himself up. He also became more clingy and does not play alone, still doesnt sleep through the night, and this week has been sick (so EVERYTHING amplified). I am tired and overwhelmed. Please lie and tell me things get better. 🥺

4 month bed time

What time do you put your babies to bed?
What time do you start your 'routine?'
My LO currently goes to bed around 10.30pm, and I know i need to start bringing it forward. Everytime ive tried, it takes longer for my LO to settle.
We are exclusively breastfeeding. Any advice Mamas?

6 month old autistism

My 6 month old makes no eye contact with me and doesn’t respond when I call him. Can this just be a phase or personality trait as apposed to autism

5.30am wakeups 😫😴

My 15 week old has started waking up about 5.30am and is really hard to settle back down - it’s like he thinks it’s time to wake up for the day. He used to go to bed at 9pm and was up at 8am but now he goes to bed between 7.30-8pm as he’s knackered by then but waking up at 5.30am😴. Any advice to get him to sleep a little longer in the morning?! Even an extra hour would be lovely 🤣
