First steps

My little boy took his first steps today and is already getting so confident with it. Now I need to get him his first walking shoes, but no idea which ones to go for. Any ideas?

I didn't want to pay a lot of money so I found some widefit barefoot type ones on amazon and bought some stride rite ones from vinted

Clarks are the standard go to. However there are lots of other brands out there (and you don’t pay the high price tag). As long as you measure their feet correctly, I’d go for a soft sole to begin with. I have bought many pairs of MK Matt Keely shoes. And no offence to Clarks but they don’t have the best range of design. Lacofia is also another nice brand.

Sorry should say, these can be found on Amazon as well!

Start-rite all the way. Get them measured in a shop the first time so you can see how it’s done, then you can buy a measuring gauge on Vinted for about £5 and they have a clearance section on their website with first shoes for £10. Compared them to Clarks and they are just much nicer - much softer leather and really well made

Before I got chance to go to Clark’s to have him measured I ordered some first walkers off Amazon. Once I knew what size I needed I just searched on Vinted for some Clarks shoes

Have a look on vinted once you know size as kids shoes are super cheap on there x

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.

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.

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😢💗
