Pram/car seat refusal

Is anyone elses baby suddenly screaming in their pram or car seat? We can’t ever go for a walk/to the shops etc as he will not go in his pram! He settled as soon as we pick him up and carry him but he’s getting heavy and it’s so hot in this heat! It’s very restricting and I’m not sure what to do?!

Are you still in lay down on pram and is newborn insert in car seat still? Only reason I ask is because my little man always been fine until randomly he started screaming until I took newborn insert out of car seat and I put his pram in sit up it’s still slightly reclined but he can see what’s going on and he has seemed to settle again xx

My baby is also doing this. She was so distraught in the car the other day she ended up throwing up. I've since given up. I've ditched the pram and now use a pushchair so she can sit up and look around. If she's not hungry or sleepy she will tolerate it for a short time.

A pram insert really helps for the bigger pram xx

Is this not to do with leap 4 (if you follow the leaps) because I keep telling myself it is to make it less stressful for myself that it’ll end soon 😒😂

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

Not drinking

I’m going crazy. Baby born at 2.26kg. Slow to put on weight. This last week hasn’t put on any. Been trying to feed him at night and he’s not interested at all. Fast asleep. During day he will have 5 minute gulps and that’s it. He don’t cry for milk. I’ve got to keep offering to him. I try to offer it every hour but I don’t know what I’m doing. HV said nutrition comes after 5 minutes so I should pump first and then give him. I find it so hard. I tried to pump one boob nothing came. The other abit came. Tried giving him express he’s not interested in that too. Sometimes he will go for a longer a feed but not long at all. He’s 4 months and is currently 5.46kg. I have no family or friend support here and wish I had a cook, cleaner and nanny to help with everything so I can concentrate on the little one. I don’t know what’s wrong with him but I’m loosing it. It doesn’t help that my also stressed generally about my relationship and life circumstances. Any advice that will work. Any comfort you can give. I’m fed up. Is this regression - not feeding. He’s fast fast asleep. I’ve been trying to push the nipple in but that mouth is closed shut. I took some clothes off. Changed his nappy but he’s still asleep. Please help

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 🤣
