Did anyone suffer with low milk supply? How did you overcome it? Note: I am pumping exclusively

Sleeping

4 week old baby - Should we wake a baby up if they’ve been sleeping for 2+ hours (for example)

When do we wake them up or we let them wake naturally?

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

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

Dummies

Has anyone successfully gotten rid of dummies before 12 months? We only use it to fall asleep then he spits it straight out, doesn’t wake looking for it in the night so just want to remove it all together before he gets attached, any advice?

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!
