Sleeping in their own room…

When did you move your kiddo to their own room? I hear 6 months but essentially whatever works for you. 6 months still seems so small to all alone. But leaving them in the same room might just lead to continued wakes for both us parents. Just curious.

We moved her at 3 months for the frequent walking issue/she refuses to sleep if she knows we’re close unless she was on top of us the entire time! I exclusively pumped and my night pump alarms constantly woke her up. I would have preferred till 6 months though if she didn’t have issues with waking up to everything at that age. Our cat also gets overly mad if the bedroom door is closed and I wasn’t comfortable with the cat around the baby while we’re sleeping

We moved when he was 4.5ish months so that’s when he went to his own room and he actually slept better after going to his own room, my husband also snores so!

I still haven't and she's 20 months 🤷‍♀️ she's in her crib right next to us

We moved my kiddo at 2 and 1/2 months so we can stop waking each other up

i moved my 3 year old over a couple months ago, but i plan on moving my second over in a month or so! probably after we come back from vacation! he’ll be room sharing with his big brother so thankfully he won’t be “alone”

We waited till our daughter was ready. At 18months she told us she was ready and it was an overnight, super simple transition. Glad we waited for her to give us cues and now i miss her in our room 🥲

wow that’s an awesome transition. I know the feeling. While it can be rough to not have my space. That warm bundle of baby is special.

Planned to keep her in the same room with us until she was 1, but moved her out around 7 months bc she was getting too big for her bassinet and she didn’t have enough space to sleep and would have her face really close to the mesh, we knew we had to clear her storage room and set up a space for her real quick. It was nerve wrecking the first night but she has a crib, lots more space and we have a monitor!

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?

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.

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?

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.
