Advice help and tips please ❤️

Hi ladies,

Looking for some advice along with maybe some tips….

My little boy is 12 weeks old this Sunday but was six weeks early so is only six weeks corrected.

He’s currently having 5oz every 3-4 hours though-out the day and then 6oz on his last bottle before bed about 8/9pm.
After this bottle he always settles a really well and will sleep anywhere up to 2/3am.

We then do another feed normally about 5oz again and we up for about an hour by the time he’s fed and settled back down and when I transfer him back to his next to me he’s always in a deep sleep but everytime he’s awake again about 30/40 mins after being transferred and needs about another 30 minutes to an hour be settled back down. Sometimes for him to then wake again at 4/5am for a feed and we repeat the whole process again 🫠.

I’m not expecting him to sleep through the night yet, but how can I get him to be more settled after this night feeds and get him to stay asleep?

Thank you in advance 🩵

Sleeping bag

8 week old in sleeping bag for first time as big enough! Do you feed your child in the night whilst in the sleeping bag or taken them out, feed then transfer back to sleeping bag before putting down?

Leaky nappy help

What nappies are you using to stop leaks?? We use pampers ultra dry size 5, and for the past few nights he has lashed through and we’ve had to completely change him during the night. Last night he leashed through twice!! He sleeps on his front and stays leaks through at the top of his leg where the tabs connect. Didn’t know whether to size up, he has a bit of a belly on him but he’s smack in middle of weight guidance so shouldn’t need too

My little one is struggling with sleep

Hey! I'm in need of some advice please girls! My little boy is 20 months turns 21 months in 2 half weeks. He use to sleep through the night now he is waking up every single night in the early morning, I've had to transition him to a toodler bed as he kept climbing out his cot. Just need some advice on what I can do to help him get back in to a sleep pattern?

New born

Finally had my baby girl via C-section on the 18th, everything has been so far. But I’ve noticed she’s very fussy and cries a lot. I’ve been trying to exclusively breastfeed. The lactation consultant at the hospital said I did look like I’m making enough milk for her. She was latching on good at the hospital and now here at home, she doesn’t seem to want to latch at all. She’s been crying a lot and very fussy. I’m just wondering is she’s colic or like maybe she just doesn’t want the breast anymore?

6 month old autistism

My 6 month old makes no eye contact with me and doesn’t respond when I call him. Can this just be a phase or personality trait as apposed to autism

5.30am wakeups 😫😴

My 15 week old has started waking up about 5.30am and is really hard to settle back down - it’s like he thinks it’s time to wake up for the day. He used to go to bed at 9pm and was up at 8am but now he goes to bed between 7.30-8pm as he’s knackered by then but waking up at 5.30am😴. Any advice to get him to sleep a little longer in the morning?! Even an extra hour would be lovely 🤣
