Sometimes in the middle of the night my daughter starts to cry very loudly. She'll ask me for help but doesn't me what she needs help with.
When I try to ask for clarity she just screams and cries even more. Usually she has to pee but when I ask and try to help, it makes the crying even worse.

Have you asked her if she is having a bad dream maybe?
Are you able to take her to pee? Does she seem to calm after?
What conversations have you had with her the next day about it?
Does she have a night light?

Does she seem to remember the next morning of what has happened at night? If not, she might be having “night terrors”.
Often happens when kids get overly tired and stimulated throughout the day. My 3 year old had them a few times. He would scream/cry very loud. There’s not much you can do other than just sit and hold them- once I tried to wet his face with some water and that seemed to help a little and cause the crying to subside. He’d then go back to sleep, next morning I asked him about it and he had no clue what I’m talking about, and my kid typically has insanely good memory
She said she doesn't remember. She also doesn't remember walking to the bathroom and peeing by herself
It doesn't make sense to me because she has excellent memory too. She's already 5 and having night terrors? When does it end?
The only stimulation thing she did really was watch her dad play Pokemon for 10 minutes on his phone. That was 2 hours before sleeping.

I put your question in chat gpt and pretty much got the same answer as what my thoughts were, that it’s night terrors. Here are some screenshots I’m attaching- hope it helps.
Hi, I’m just wanting to ask those who have had epidurals during child birth. How were they for you, are you pleased you had one, what was recovery like etc. ♥️

I’ve been seeing online lots of different opinions on bathing your baby everyday. I stopped bathing my baby everyday because I saw lots of info on how it’s bad for their skin etc and now bath mine every other day unless of course it’s a hot day or she’s been sicky/pooey or just got messy. (She gets a clean down before bed and always has fresh pjs and sheets changed regularly). However, lots of the comments say how older babies to toddlers should bath everyday and how it’s disgusting to not do it everyday? I’m
So torn and now worried that I should have been bathing her everyday and feel bad about it. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated?

Is this normal.. I gave birth beginning of July and as soon as I felt ready to have sex I’ve communicated to my partner,
Since then nothing, he’s not even trying.. I don’t understand I feel like he doesn’t want to have sex with me anymore..
Moms how long after did you have your first sexual encounter.? Just wondering I know we are all different..

I’m not looking for advice I think I just want to not feel so alone. I’m 7 months in, my baby doesn’t sleep. I’m lucky if I get 3 consecutive hours. I breastfeed and baby only settles when on the boob. He’s grown out of his crib, won’t sleep in his cot, will only sleep on me or in my bed. Day time naps are a complete guess. Some days I’ll get 3 naps all around an hour. Other days I’m lucky if I get one 20 minute nap. This feels so much harder than the newborn days. I am so tired. I love my baby more than anything in the world and don’t want to be away from him for even a second but I would just love to have some sleep and/or a structure to the day.

I know it’s probably not colostrum but after a couple of hours my nipples seem to have a tiny amount of what I can only describe as “gunk” it’s slightly off white and hard at the surface then a little sticky. It is tiny amounts like just enough to be noticeable. I am 14 weeks so far too early for any milk production, is this something I should talk to midwife about?
