Baby hating sleeping in next to me

Does anyone else’s baby just hate sleeping in their next to me ?
My little girl just seems to hate it.
I’ve tried putting a teddy with my scent in it, waiting until she’s in a deep sleep before putting her in etc; but I feel as if nothing is working ?
Sometimes we get her into it and then she’ll wake after 20 mins and just not go back to sleep.
Does anyone have any advice ?

She also hates the bassinet part to her pram, every time we put her into it she just screams, I’m not sure if it’s because it’s just so open and she’s so tiny or why she doesn’t seem to like it.

Does your little one have reflux? My son has had awful reflux his whole life and still six months down the line will not lay flat on his back in his next to me or his pram

My son had really bad reflux and absolutely hated lying flat, if you have the chico next to me (not sure if other brands have it too that’s just the one I had so I know it’s deffo there) there is a little lever on the side and you can tilt it a bit and that was the only way I could get my son to sleep! You can look up a wee YouTube tutorial on how to tilt it x

If that doesn’t work co sleeping can definitely be done safely so don’t let anyone make you feel guilty for it, it’s actually standard practice in a lot of countries, we ended up cosleeping down the line for a few months and he was perfectly safe so just do what works best for you and baby x

Binky after 6+ months?

So my son has recently turned 6 months and a week or so. I wanted to know what you guys are doing binky wise? Are you weening or ? Because I have only been letting or giving him his when he cry’s super bad having a hard time sleeping or if he grabs it himself. Doing it this way I have noticed him slowly put the binky down himself but maybe I’m moving too early?

ER visit

Took my 4 year old last night to the Er with a ear infection. They asked her two questions “Donyou feel safe at home ? She reply no . Does any one hurt you she reply big bubba .

Okay ladies this is not true . Her and her big bubba wrestle and play fight . And I honestly don’t think she understood the first question . I’m freaking out and wondering if I will get CPS on me

3 month baby lost most of her hair?

Hey all - my 3 month old has lost almost all her hair 😢 she looks like Groundskeeper Willy right now. She has a bit of cradle cap, but the hair lost is a ring around her head. Is this expected? She was my little ginger haired girl 🥺

Unbelievable

My MIL told my husband that I should be breastfeeding(nursing) and that pumping is not the right way to feed my baby….
Anyone else thinks that’s wild??

Maternity bralettes

Hi ladies, I’m looking for recommendations for natural material (cotton, bamboo, etc) padded bralettes.

I’m a 23 weeks pregnant with a very small chest but wide back. I’ve always been blessed that I can wear bralettes and looking for some that I can wear now and for breastfeeding that have some padding so my nips don’t show 😅 I’m also very aware that my boobs should be getting bigger later on so a bit unsure about sizing if anyone has any advice. Thanks ❤️

Kendamil issues

Hey, has anyone had issues with the brand Kendamil. We used Kendamil classic first and baby was having the worst digestive upset after stopping breast milk and exclusively formula feeding. She’s straining, going red in the face, grunting a lot and farting lots. She also takes days to poop! We switched to Kendamil goat formula and it’s made no difference.
