Toddler constantly saying 'Mummy' and trying to get my attention.

Anyone else?! I honestly must hear it thousands of times a day, it's every few seconds. I can't do anything at all in the same room as him without him constantly shouting for my attention - he has lots of 1:1 time and I involve him in all activities.

I feel like it's making me so overstimulated and snappy. When we see friends their little ones seem much more independent..

Love you hear your experiences.

My daughter does this too & I feel this, I could've wrote the post myself. My eldest was the opposite of, my youngest so I've got no advice. Just know that you're not alone in this x

Bathing baby everyday debate making me feel like a bad mum?

I’ve been seeing online lots of different opinions on bathing your baby everyday. I stopped bathing my baby everyday because I saw lots of info on how it’s bad for their skin etc and now bath mine every other day unless of course it’s a hot day or she’s been sicky/pooey or just got messy. (She gets a clean down before bed and always has fresh pjs and sheets changed regularly). However, lots of the comments say how older babies to toddlers should bath everyday and how it’s disgusting to not do it everyday? I’m
So torn and now worried that I should have been bathing her everyday and feel bad about it. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated?

Sex after giving birth

Is this normal.. I gave birth beginning of July and as soon as I felt ready to have sex I’ve communicated to my partner,
Since then nothing, he’s not even trying.. I don’t understand I feel like he doesn’t want to have sex with me anymore..
Moms how long after did you have your first sexual encounter.? Just wondering I know we are all different..

7 months in and still no sleep 🫠

I’m not looking for advice I think I just want to not feel so alone. I’m 7 months in, my baby doesn’t sleep. I’m lucky if I get 3 consecutive hours. I breastfeed and baby only settles when on the boob. He’s grown out of his crib, won’t sleep in his cot, will only sleep on me or in my bed. Day time naps are a complete guess. Some days I’ll get 3 naps all around an hour. Other days I’m lucky if I get one 20 minute nap. This feels so much harder than the newborn days. I am so tired. I love my baby more than anything in the world and don’t want to be away from him for even a second but I would just love to have some sleep and/or a structure to the day.

14 weeks

I know it’s probably not colostrum but after a couple of hours my nipples seem to have a tiny amount of what I can only describe as “gunk” it’s slightly off white and hard at the surface then a little sticky. It is tiny amounts like just enough to be noticeable. I am 14 weeks so far too early for any milk production, is this something I should talk to midwife about?
