Where is baby sleeping

My baby is coming up to 8 months and still in my bedroom. She’s still feeding during the night so to me it doesn’t make sense to put her in her own bedroom yet. What is everyone else doing?

Mine moved to her own room around 6 months - she doesn’t need us much in the night, and my husband likes to sleep in full dark and silence so just worked for us. If she needed us more/I hadn’t been ready for her to go, she’d have stayed in with us. She may move back in with us if her sleep regresses. Do what works best for you 🥰 x

Still in my room in next to me crib, he hasn't fed through the night since he was about 4 months old but I like him in my room, plus I've had alot going on recently and it's been the last thing on my mind. You don't need to move your baby. I wouldn't, especially if they're still feeding through the night, do what works for you, don't stress about the small stuff x

Considering most of the world co sleep/room share there must be a beneficial reason for it, for some reason some parts of the western world think a baby should have a job, moved out and doing the housework by 6 months old lol.

My daughter didn’t go in her own room until she was 2 and she still comes in our room occasionally. My baby is 9 months and he still sleeps in our room. Until he doesn’t wake me up constantly he can stay here lol. It’s nice that babies want to be close, we are their comfort and I personally wouldn’t feel comfortable having them in a separate room at 6 months they are still so young.

My lo is 8 1/2 months and still in with us.

He wakes several times through the night, it’s easier than having to go up to his room to get him (we live in a town house).

I’m hoping he’ll start to sleep longer stretches, then in his own room from about 1

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?

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😢💗

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.
