Honestly my little girl is the exact same age and yesterday was HARD! But then just snapped out of it this morning and was smiling away like she didn’t nearly send me crazy all of yesterday! 😂 I’m putting it down to so many things… the aftermath of her jabs last week, the heat, a developmental leap… anything to make me feel like she’s not just being fussy for the sake of being fussy! They’ll get over it (we hope!) x

My little boy is 10 weeks but I found week 9 the most difficult yet for all of the above reasons! It was a struggle for sure but he seems to have plateaued again this week🙃

Hey lovely - my baby is 10 weeks old today and week 8 to currently is the hardest yet. Nearly lost the plot multiple times! Hoping it passes soon but you’re not alone xx

Omg yes. My girl is 10 weeks today and she won't let anyone else but me hold her. We're travelling later today too which will be fun 🫠

Have a look into PURPLE crying if you haven't already, really normal developmentally but so hard!!

We found that week 8-10 was the hardest for us and our little boy just snapped out of it,by 12 week he was a completely different baby started giggling,talking more a lot more playful it was a really drastic change hopefully he will be same and just snap out of it!x

Sleeping bag

8 week old in sleeping bag for first time as big enough! Do you feed your child in the night whilst in the sleeping bag or taken them out, feed then transfer back to sleeping bag before putting down?

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?

Am I wrong?

I’ve been wanting to add more garden beds to my garden. Husband says “hey do you want to go to Home Depot to get that wood for the garden beds.” Cool I’m excited I’ve been wanting to get this done for awhile.

We get there and we’re picking out wood and I make 2 comments about how I don’t like how 2 pieces of wood look that he picked out. And he says if you’re going to be this picky then u can do this yourself.

I literally made 2 comments and mind you I’m the one paying for the wood.

I felt dismissed and like my opinion didn’t matter and if I wanted to have an opinion then I need to do it myself. Like what?

It was rude and not okay. Am I wrong? Am I overreacting?

He thinks it was fine that he said that.

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 🤣

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
