What diaper size are your babies in? I’m starting to think my girl is ready for size 2 but they are too long? But the size 1 is starting to get tight

My girl is 5 weeks and in size ones. We just made the change last week. I did notice that depending on the brand the size 1 is different. When we first changed, pampers were too big but Millie moon and Huggies fit fine. If you have to use size 2 and they are too long maybe try folding the top down like we had to when they still had their umbilical cord?

Our babe is 5 weeks old + wearing size 1, but we bumped up to size 2 for our next Everylife subscription order. He currently weighs about 10 pounds. (Note: We've found that Everylife runs smaller than Millie Moon.)

My daughter is 5 weeks and still wearing newborn size everything 😭

My girl is 3 weeks (4 tomorrow) and we just moved her up to 1s over the weekend because the newborns started to leave elastic marks on her legs. Size 1 feels a tad big but we didn’t want her to be uncomfortable. She weighs about 9lbs now.

10 month old sleep regression?

My baby has always been a fantastic sleeper and would sleep through the night in her cot. Shes never slept in our bed. She would fall asleep on us and transfer over to her cot easily. Recently she is crying every time we put her down and waking multiple times in the night.

Has this happened to anyone else? It’s been a week now and I don’t want to make a habit of her sleeping in my bed when we’ve done so well up until now.

No judgment- FTM!

I combi feed my baby. Based on advice from relatives (lol) I was told when it comes to bottle feeds, especially at night feeds, just prepare them before we go to bed then reheat when needed.

My health visitor has come and advised against that due to bacteria growth. We thought this may be a reason why baby is in discomfort due to upset tummy.

To make life easier at night I’ve just gone back to breast feeding as he will cry the place down if he has to wait at night lool. If I have to make a bottle from scratch does anyone recommend at cooling device I can use?

Thank you x

Going out with bottle fed baby

Baby is 9 weeks - we’ve been out to shopping centre/family but I panic so much thinking about his feeds - mainly, how will I make his milk when out/ will he run out?

I usually take ready made milk and feel ‘safe’ around shops as I can always buy milk if we run out. I’ve stoped this now as it’s too expensive and I have everything I need to prepare his milk.. so no excuse!

I always take so many bottles/ rapid cool/ flask with hot water / bottle with cool boiled water - I have everything but it causes me so much anxiety especially when I see others preparing milk with ease and confidence!

I just can’t work out the best way to prepare his bottles when out.

Also, as I take sooo much stuff as I don’t want to run out - I can’t fit everything into my bag 😩🙈

What do you find works for you? Thank you

Help!

Ok our dryer just broke but it’s not mine it’s my moms who I live with. They don’t want to buy a new due to financial situations. Me and my husband would buy it but my mom’s husband doesn’t want to put in and doesn’t even speak to us. So getting a new one is on hold but I need to wash my husbands uniforms like 3 times a week. And I’m down to hand wash them the problem is them drying and smelling like mildew. So has anyone ever tried a portable dryer or any recommendations on what to do cause we’ve been doing the laundry mat and it’s adding up with us doing laundry multiple times a month.

Feeling bad.

My 3 month old (just turned) if not asleep will just scream and cry whenever awake, we maybe get 5 minutes maximum where we can interact/play because the rest of the time she is so unhappy!
I dont know if I want help, ideas of what could be the cause, reassurance, just anything right now 🫠🥹 ps. It's not just when she's tired, it's all the time x

High Chairs!

Anyone got any recommendations on high chairs? Ideally I don’t want one that’s too expensive as it’ll just get overrated in food, but happy to pay more if needed. Think I’ll need one with straps so baby doesn’t throw himself forward!
