Severe sleep regression around age 9-10 months

Did anyone else notice a huge personality switch in their baby within the span of less than a week. My daughter has always been super quiet, a good sleeper and easily entertained. Even when her teeth came in there was no difference in behavior. Then suddenly her entire personality did a 180. She became restless and vocal without pause all day long. She has been struggling to sleep longer than an hour or two at a time at night and screams like she’s been seriously hurt out of nowhere. She also became extremely clingy and freaks out if I even break eye contact with her. Should I be worried or is this common?

My boy changed a lot too. He’s become soo fussy and even starting to throw tantrums. Obviously every baby is different but I did hear they do become more vocal even screaming around this age, and they also go through separation anxiety. Mine did go through it bit earlier around 7/8 months. He’s still gets really shy around new people.

Mounjaro

Is mounjaro allowed to be taken whilst breastfeeding? I’m not on it yet, but considering it as it’s the only thing that helps me lose some weight due to my health conditions.

Tired 10 weeks postpartum mum needing reassurance from formula-feeding mums 🙏

Hi mums, I’m 10 weeks postpartum and feeling so burnt out. My baby doesn't latch, so I’ve been pumping and mixed feeding. Pumping is exhausting me, and I’m really thinking about quitting.

Because I work in healthcare, the guilt is hitting me hard and I keep overthinking the benefits of breast milk. But my mental and physical health are slipping.

Would love to hear from moms whose babies are 100% formula-fed. Please tell me your formula babies are thriving and that you got your sanity back! Need some reassurance today. 🙏

Breastfeeding/bedtime feeds

We’ve officially stopped feeding during the day, going on a month now. But night time feeds😭 I’m so over it. How do I stop? It’s so easy to just keep doing it. We co-sleep so I usually just stuff boob in her mouth when shes fussing at night but I can’t do that anymore. And she’s going to war over not having boob, what helps? How can I get her to soothe better without it and find comfort in other things?

Baby not burping - consequences?

My little one is 5 weeks old and does not wind!! No matter what I do. I try for like 15 minutes and he doesn’t bring anything up, I tend to keep him lying on me after feeding if I can’t wind him and he’s normally ok. There’s been the odd occasion he’s spat up when I’ve led him down but it’s very rare. What is the consequences if he is not burped? It’s stressing me out because surely he has something to bring up and don’t want him being uncomfortable 🙈

Sleeps all day

Anyone else’s baby sleep all day and then have mega long wake windows like 5pm onwards?🤣

She’s one month old and I swear she stays awake no longer than 20ish minutes in the day wake windows but as soon as 4/5pm hits she’s awake for hours with small naps in-between! Then from midnight onwards she goes back to sleeping loads😴
