Usually catch up on chores, review our budgets, prep dinner, fold clothes, and then either rest or make some art

Enjoy it while you can lol

I usually give myself something to look forward to when my babies naps coincide with one another. I Make sure everything is clean before their nap times so I have enough time to Make myself a bomb ass iced coffee followed by a small workout 😆 or I'll do some journaling, reading, soak up some sun next to a window like a cat Bahahaha honestly anything that doesn't involve my kids for that hour and a half maybe 2 hours if I'm lucky enough!

I also like to Set up for any afternoon activities right before they wake too

I usually read and take some time to myself so I can refresh for when they wake up

Chores, read a book or beauty routine stuff 💓

Chores, make bread, dinner etc

My oldest is 12, and my 3 year old doesn't nap, but the baby does. I'm pretty much on the go from the time we wake up until bedtime. If I get the two littles down I work on chores with an audiobook, watch an episode of a TV show, spend time with my oldest a lot, read a book, or pass out with them depending on how the day goes.

Dummies🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️

Has anyone got any tips on how to GET RID of dummies😂🤦🏼‍♀️ my little girl is obsessed and i have no idea where to start!!

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😢💗

Breastfeeding

Does it ever feel better? The actual feeding part of it is going really well and baby boy is growing so well. I’m struggling with how my boobs feel day to day - it’s really getting me down most days. The let downs make me feel awful and sounds silly but, I am also really missing not wearing a bra! 9 weeks postpartum and still getting fairly engorged, even with comfort pumping.

Any advice or just shared stories would help. I’m so torn between carrying on because I enjoy the feeding side of it or switching to formula.

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?

Strange question

Hello. I would identify myself as asexual but yes i am married and i have a child. But now that ive had my baby. I think its solidified that im done having sex. I feel bad as my partner keeps asking me but i just dont want to. Any advice on what i can do? Any other asexual moms out there? I guess this could be confusing but im not huge on being bound by a label. I have just always felt it represented me best since highschool.
