Anyone else’s 13 mo trying to do headstands in bed?

Weird one, my little girl is in a continuous cycle of trying to do headstands in bed. She worms around pushing her head face down against the mattress and rams it up toward the frame of the bed. I try and try to redirect her to a more comfy position but it is constant. She’s fighting naps and night time sleep a fair bit too and this behaviour has been around for quite a few weeks now, although she slept through for the first time in forever last night.

We thought it was teething, then I took her to my gp yesterday just to rule out ear infection. I’m wondering if it’s her own way of self soothing? Sometimes she’s quite chilled doing it and other times it’s whilst she’s crying. We’ve checked for trapped wind, give her infacol and probiotics and ruled out allergens etc in case it was tummy upset. When we thought it was teething we also gave her calpol and teething gel and it didn’t stop her doing it. I don’t know if it’s a regression behaviour or a phase or whether somethings wrong?

Has anyone else had this with their kiddos? I’m a ftm and I’m just trying to figure out if it’s normal. 😅

What would you do?

Breastfeeding
Pros:
- Better for baby
- Don't have to pay for formula
Cons:
- I'm probably gonna get touched out
- Worries, what if I don't produce enough, latching etc
- I want my partner to be able to handle feeds too
- I'll be going back to work after 9m

Formula
Pros:
- Already know what I'm doing
- Dad can do feeds
- Feel like this will be easier when baby starts nursery at 9m but don't know.
Cons
- More expense

Also please give me more pros/cons for both as that might help me make a decision 😅

Sleep regression but we haven’t even had a progression !!

Some advice please !!!
My LO is nearly 12 weeks and the longest stretch at night is 4.5 hours that’s happened VERY infrequently and most of the time he sleeps only 1.5-2.5 hour blocks. I’m exhausted, emotional and finding I am getting frustrated and inpatient at night because I feel as though we should be making some kind of sleep progress at this age. I then feel guilty about being frustrated later in the day.

All I can find is info on sleep 3 month regression at this age but I don’t feel like he’s even progressed to have a regression?! Is it normal to still be feeding on demand in the day and night? Occasionally he’s settled back to sleep with rocking and no feeding but not often. Is there light at the end of the tunnel ? My partner works long hours so I try not to involve him in nights but lately it’s been a joint effort but as I’m EBF, he can’t do much so I feel I always end up waking up anyway even if he does help out.

Baby washing

Not sure if this is going to sound silly but what are we doing with fluffy coats/pram suits etc I feel like washing them is going to ruin them or make them look shabby

Making bottles while out

Don’t come for me, I’m a first time mam and still learning! When I am out, I haven’t been doing a “hot shot” or mixing formula into hot water as I have been using the nuby rapid cooler and just cooling the correct amount of water down e.g. 4oz of boiling water then pouring it into a bottle (I use mam bottles) and then adding the powder but I have been researching and it says I should be mixing it the powdered formula into hot water to get rid of any bacteria however when I am out I can’t sterilise the nuby rapidcooler and sometimes we use about 3 or 4 bottles depending how long we are out. I use SMA First Infant Milk. What does everyone else do? I’m stressing🤣 I need advice as I don’t really want to have to get pre-made formula as it’s just means having to spend even more money.

Nappies

Not sure where else to ask this, but I recently brought some unopened nappies on vinted (pampers pants). They have just arrived today and when checking packaging I noticed the manufacturing date was 2018!

I know nappies don't have an expiration date but would you still use them? I haven't actually opened the packaging yet or accepted the order yet just in case.

These will be for my 8 month old.

I've never seen nappies like this before as people tend to use them straight away.😂

I brought 3 packs for £10 and all 3 are dated 2018.
