Night feed at 4am
Hi ladies, my baby wakes up twice a night to drink milk, usually around 12am and 4am. The 4am feed (around 4oz) is what I’ve been counting as his ‘morning bottle’ and then we go straight into breakfast when he wakes up properly (around 6.30). I don’t offer milk again until at least 2pm (before his second nap).
But I’m not sure if that assumption makes sense and should the 4am feed still be considered a night feed instead of a morning bottle? What would you do in this situation?

When we were giving more bottles and my son got up in the night for a feed, I would go straight into breakfast then offer another bottle before his first nap. I felt like he was drinking less of the bottles offered so I decided to just cut down and see how he was. I increased food and just give a bottle at bedtime now. If he wakes in the night, we’ll give him a bottle and very occasionally I’ll offer one in the day but he’s eating really well now that I don’t think he needs it and he doesn’t look for it. He will be 13 months on 8th x

Speech
How many words does your 18mo have? We've got about 6/7 and have been told by nursery and the health visitor thats the lower end/slightly behind. She understands very well, but rarely uses the words she knows and was a late babbler.
Just wondering if anyone else had been through the same with any advice to help her speech?

Please help
Hii
My son is 2023 feb born
He is going to the preschool since 2 years never had a problem
Since two weeks they were told he is been physically one day
And later they told me today he is again being physical i then asked what exactly is happening then the member of staff told me he wants kids to play with him so he is pushing them to play
Then i came home and spoke with the manager and she said the same
Is this behaviour normal are need attention
He plays with the kids in the community but never seen him pushing
He is very good in communication,
Expressing himself and understanding
What should i do to avoid this ?
He never does anything as such in front of us
How to we know??

Dummies?!
Looking for some advice, my nearly 5 week old baby will suck on a dummy for around 1-2 mins then spits it out and start fussing again that he wants it, sometimes he will even wake up from a nap for it. This will continue until he falls into a deep sleep and eventually when the dummy falls out he won’t wake back up . He will also settle without a dummy so does he maybe just not want it or are the dummies too big for his mouth I’m not sure 😩 we have tried the mam newborn orthodontic ones and the tommee tippee 0-2 month (the teat on these are a lot bigger). He is also formula fed, has anyone else been through this if so all advice welcome 🙏🏻
