Night tantrums
Help!!!!!
My LG is waking at least 2x a night having tantrums. She doesn’t want to be touched or cuddled and nothing seems to settle her. She demands things juice/milk/food and doesn’t seem to stop her tantrum until she has some milk. We have recently weaned her off her dummy (which she was really obsessed with) so not sure if that’s contributed. Anyone else had similar-any tips to help over come this. She has never been a good sleeper but this is killing me. She has also just started resisting bedtime which she used to be really good at going to bed.
Please help an extremely tired mum!

Omega 3s/ magnesium may help?
My son DEMANDS milk when he wakes.. feel like night wakes reduced a bit but back now :( also always had a poor sleeper. I know they can get night terrors now. So could be this?
Bed time is also hard for us. He still needs a nap, but often refuses then has a very late nap and then won’t go to bed. Luckily that’s weekend only. In nursery he naps at nap time with all the other kids. ATM if he skips nap he falls asleep at like 3:30/4, if he can last till 6 I’ll just put him to bed. Hoping this will come in the next couple of months.
Sounds like night terrors! Or sometimes they can wake in a state of confusion. Might be wanting milk as a comfort for this! I always leave a cup of milk or water on my boys bedside table for him incase he wakes thirsty x

Baby seats for trolleys, high chairs etc.
Has anyone got one of these from a brand they recommend? Not sure if Coco seat is a UK brand or what it's like as a company?
Thanks in advance!

Nappy leaks at night—what brands or tips work?
My 12 week old uses Aldi Mamia size 3 nappies during the day with no problems, but at night both Mamia and Pampers Premium Protection size 3 have leaked after a few hours. Has anyone got tips for nighttime leaks or recommendations for other brands or strategies?

Sleep regression or upping daytime intake?
My baby is 15 weeks on Saturday. He used to sleep 9ish-6am with only 1 wake for a feed. He’s now ready for bed at 7/7:30 and sleeping until 7am but waking for 3 feeds! He had dropped to 6 5oz bottle but has now added in an extra one at 11pm. I’ve tried him with some 6oz bottles in the day but he struggled with them. What’s going on? Do I need to ride it out or try and up his daytime intake?

Formula advice
I was just curious if anyone has switched formulas. My 12 week old baby has been on aptamil 1 since birth but due to crap mat pay and the prices of formula nowadays I was wondering if anyone can advise if they switched and (or) if they've used aptamil and changed; which brand did they switch to. Thanks mummas
