I’m EBF and offer one boob, nappy change then then pop into sleep suit and offer the other boob then transfer to crib

I used to change, back in bag, feed then put down else getting back into the bag would wake her up too much

I take him out of his bag, change his nappy, back in his bag, then nurse him to sleep.

I changed then put back in sleep sack to feed then back to bed

I feed him in his bag but have the zip open to wind him easier change nappy after feed. Then zip back up, rock him back to sleep then put him back in his crib x

Yes leave in sleeping bag, most of them have a zip at the bottom for easy changing

Hi, I have a 4 month boy and I use the sleeping bag as part of his night routine. First, bath time to relax and help with a good night sleep. Then when I dress him, and I already put him into the sleeping bag. Then I feed him to sleep. The sleeping bag I got have 2 way zippers which helps with any night changes.

Ive lost my patience

I am only 12 weeks but I fell like ive lost my patience with my 15 month old, all day long im just constantly telling her off for hitting the tv, climbing on the back of the sofa to get to the window, throwing things at the cat and laughing. Im not enjoying being with her and that sounds horrible 😢

Im not enjoying my pregnancy in the first place and feeling exhausted everyday aswel cause my daughter is sleeping in our bed every night as she cries the moment i get near her cot 😢

Im just feeling lost

Leaking overnight

Any nappy recs advice for nappy leaks at night? My 7 month old has just started consistently leaking, I’ve sized up in nappies and tried Aldi and rascals but no luck.

Has anyone had better results with pull ups? He’s just big enough now I think but I wasn’t sure if Aldi pull ups are any good?

Is it ok to let a newborn (2weeks) sleep if already past birth weight or wake to feed ?

No hate for having a sleepy baby please my first was an awful sleeper so I know how triggering these posts can be 😂… but

My 2 week old slept for almost 6hours last night and we woke him even though he seemed pretty tired and would have slept longer. He’s been a sleepy baby since birth but feeds a lot throughout the day and has surpassed his birth weight but my husband woke me last night to say we need to wake the baby to feed. I said I’d get up and pump and let the baby sleep but he said we shouldn’t let him go over 6 hours without a feed….

Should we wake him? Thoughts below please :)

Napping

Anyone else co nap with their babies/kids? I keep getting told "oh just put her down in her cot where she should be" "you can get stuff done then"
Honestly really annoys me. If I was to do that she would not nap long an be cranky all day cos she tired. An who has to struggle with it ..... Me!
Sorry for the rant guys. Anyone understand?

Fucked off

I don’t feel like I’m a good mum, I cannot stand my child clinging onto me/screaming I literally want to smack my head against a wall every time she makes that screeching noise I am seriously exhausted and I have no help whatsoever.

Sleep stretches?!

My baby boy is 9 weeks old and we’ve had the occasional 3-4 hour stretches at night however still no full night’s sleep?! Is there something I’m doing wrong or what because it seems that around this age parents have been getting full night stretches from their little ones 🥺😩 am
I supposed to get a full night stretch already at this point?
