Regression or heat?

Help!
We are on night three of inconsolable crying after being a sleep for abit!
Her room is 25° she’s been sleeping in a nappy or a strappy vest! She’s slept in this weather before (abroad and when we had the hot weather previously)
I even resulted in a midnight drive last night (3 hours awake) and a buggy walk the night before! (5 hours awake!)
She’s having all of her usual naps during the day which is absolutely normal and fine!
She’s drinking more formula & water and less solids which I put down to the heat.
Temp is fine, nappies fine.
She’s 9 months on Tuesday.

Sleep deprived and confused 🤯🤯🤯

It could be so many things. Teething, learning a new skill like crawling. Is she cool to the touch? Last night our nursery was 24degrees so I dressed LO in a strappy vest and 0.5 tog sleepsuit. She woke up screaming at 2am and when I checked she was actually quite cold. Put her in a long sleeve vest instead and she slept no bother.

I hope she’s learning something cool like flying if it is that 🤣🤣
Earlier she was in a 0.5 and a short sleeve vest, she’s now gone back to sleep in just the vest.
Earlier she was clammy, but with just the vest on now she feels normal.

Annoyingly we have aircon but where it is, it’s too much pointing at her so I try cool her room down before then turn it off but the heat soon creeps up even with a fan on 😒 hopefully she stays settled now but will check her back when I go to sleep xx

Honestly could have written this myself! I think it could be a mixture of everything to be honest she was 9 months Thursday just gone and is cruising furniture now after learning to crawl as well as teething super bad plus the heat so I just try everything until she is asleep. Last wake windows was around 5 hours as well tried for bed time at 8:15 and she has only just fully gone to sleep 😴 she would fall asleep in my arms and be like that for a solid 20 mins, i try to transfer her and she would wake straight back up and be sitting up in her cot crying so I just have to start the process again until she transfers no problem 😅 xx

literally!!! Started falling asleep on us again to then just being a nightmare when it comes to her own bed!
She’s been crawling over a month now so I feel like I’m more tired than ever because I can’t just relax with her sitting and playing in one place 😂 so bed time is the only time I get now 🤣 I said to my partner is it because she wants to walk and learning that (she stands up by herself with no help, just hasn’t got the stepping yet) it’s too early to learn all that! Slow down!! 🤣😂 I’m hoping this weather is cooling down for the nighttime’s because I can’t deal with it when she normally gives us 12 hours a night! Xx

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.
