Regression?

My little girl, now 9 weeks, was doing great sleeping between feeds at night, roughly 10pm - 2/3am and then through again until 5/6am however the last few nights she’s only sleeping for like 30/40mins or not at all and being up for hours. What is going on 😩

Rant about dad in playground incoming!!!!!

So me and my mum were just in the playground with my 21 month old. We made our way to a little playhouse and there was another little boy who seemed the same age, maybe a little older with his dad and older brother nearby.

I looked at the dad and he seemed so laid back he might aswell of been laid in the bushes. One earphone in, kind of looked distant.

I encourage my son into this playhouse, holding his hand. The little boy comes over and basically barges his way in and stands in the way so my son couldn’t come in. I’m obviously still encouraging him to go in and trying to chat to this little boy about how nice the playhouse is.

He swipes some leaves and sticks off a little table inside which makes my son jump so he steps back and this little boy leaves. He then follows us to the slide and he’s using his body to basically block my son. Kicking his leg so he can’t get on. The slide was massive and attached to a massive climbing frame. There was plenty of space for several kids.

It got to the point where we had to explain to this little boy that his behaviour isn’t very nice and to stop. The dad was on his phone still with an earphone in.

Now I try my hardest, even more so now I’m a mum to not judge and fully understand kids are kids and sharing, social skills ect are being learnt but I feel like those kids were in charge of their dad, not the other way around. At what point do you stop being so understanding and throat punch the dad 🤷🏽‍♀️

Obsessed with making boys rude

From the moment I gave birth to a boy I’ve been hearing comments about how he’s going to be rude and mess with all the girls and he won’t have any behavior. I don’t understand why they insist and on saying these things just because he’s a boy is this normal comment for a baby boy?

Is it normal to feel this way?

Baby is currently 4 weeks old…I love her to bits but I DREAD her wake windows, as horrible as that sounds😖
She’s rarely content or happy when she’s awake. If she’s awake she’s crying or screaming. I actually get scared for when she might wake up because she gets herself in such a state.
Has anyone else felt this way? Or am I just an awful mum lol.

Im hoping this gets better once baby is a bit older & can interact more with things/play/laugh etc

Clusterfeeding Trenches 😔😮‍💨

I feel like im losing my mind. He's 10 days old and today he is just crying unless hes on my boob. Ive had a c section and was so hoping to get out and about but feel like thats impossible with how upset he is. He's sleepy after boob until he try to put him down then he just screams again Anyone else in the trenches and have any advice??

Normal speech

My son will be 2 in October and he says alot of words but will only combine 2 or maybe 3 together in a sentence.
He does however, count to 20, backwards from 14, knows his alphabet, colours, shapes and is very good with flash cards and he sings nursery rhymes, somee he can sing practically every word like baa baa black sheep, twinkle twinkle,bread shoulder knees and toes etc other he sings some words really clear and skips some word
Is this a normal pattern to sentences and combining more words?

Right- when is this 4 month regression ending then?!

I just fell asleep sat up 😂 I’m looking for a message of hope from someone, when you think you’re through this bloody tough sleep bit!! Anyone who’s had it bad feel like they might be getting there?

I’ve actually lost count of when it started for us, our LO only turned 4 months today but it started early, (as it did with my eldest!) so I reckon it’s been a couple of weeks.

We can do it!!! 💪🏼
