I went back to gp and got a gel that I applied in corner of eyes with a qtip and it soaked into eyes x
My little boy got it last month, yes impossible! Pinned him down and he just kept his eyes shut crying! 😔 I just put the drop in the inner corner of each eye and it seeps in that way, I left it a few seconds and I smeared some of it across the rest of the eye if it didn't all seep in, then I dabbed his eye with cotton wool so it wasn't staying on his eyelids. It's very hard to do especially when he's trying to get away! Hopefully you get some in.he was so much better after a day of doing it.

Late labour
Good morning all,
I am 41 weeks pregnant and still waiting, I had a little mild pain since week 38 , but still no sign of the delivery, my feet started to swallow specially the right one. Is this normal?

Belly Button
Hi all,
Little ones cord fell off last night, today it looks like she has a little stump. Does anyone know what this could be?
Midwife is due to come out tomorrow so will ask her but intrigued in the meantime to see what you all think

is anyone in the same boat as me? 😭🩷
Is anyone else in a similar situation and just absolutely winging it at this point? 😭😂
I have an 8½ month old who has decided that sleep is completely optional. She barely naps during the day and is waking constantly through the night, sometimes staying awake for hours. She’s absolutely exhausted but will fight sleep with everything in her tiny body 😭 I’m trying everything and honestly I’m at the point where I don’t even know what to do anymore.
On top of that, I’ve got quite a few health issues that have been really kicking my arse lately and making it difficult to function normally. And now I’m pregnant again on top of all of it 🥲 I’m exhausted, constantly struggling to keep up with everything, and some days I genuinely feel like I’m barely keeping my head above water.
I love my wee girl more than anything and I know this is just a season, but I’m so physically and mentally drained. I feel like I’m constantly trying to look after everyone while having absolutely nothing left in the tank myself.
I know there probably isn’t a magic answer or much advice anyone can give, but I think I’d feel so much better just knowing I’m not the only one in this boat. ❤️
Are there any other mums who are dealing with awful sleep, pregnancy, health problems, or just generally feeling like they’re struggling to function? How are you coping? 😭

Can dads stay overnight?
I’m having a c section next week and am hoping dad can stay overnight with me. My last baby was in 2022 so it was still a bit ‘covidy’ and he could only stay with me during visitor hours. It was a nightmare as I was in so much pain and could barely move to get to my baby and when I pressed the button for a midwife it took over half an hour for someone to come. I am giving birth at the JR Oxford.
