My little girl tonight, has spun herself so she is lying sideways in her next to me, making me panic!
Is this normal at 4.5 months, do I just lie her back normally/vertically?

Our son did this a lot when we first brought him home, but we had it angled slightly down at the foot end, to help with congestion. (He was a snuffly boy to begin with.)
He ended up rubbing off the hair on the top of his head on the side of the beside me crib 🫣
You could check in case one end of the crib is ever so slightly lower?
Or if your daughter is just wriggling, she'll likely keep doing it. Just be mindful of her hair.
Our son's hair has grown back fine now, took a while though

We used a travel cot last week and our baby was definitely enjoying all the space! Every night found him sideways or at least diagonal at some point. I only moved him when his head was touching the sides. My mum said i used to do the same as a baby x

Yeah just pop her back vertical when you see it. Also if you're using a blanket might be good to swap to a sleeping bag to prevent her pulling it loose.

I think it’s normal, my 4 month old is the same, I wake up to find her the complete opposite way round to how I had put her down!
I see lots of babies on social media already holding their head and mine only lifts it briefly for a few seconds on tummy time and for a second when holding her upright.
Also she’s not rolling yet.
Just turned 3 months .

I went for my anatomy scan she said baby girl is perfect. But then referred me for a 2nd anatomy scan to check for placental problems. I asked was there signs of any issues and she said it’s just a precaution. But many of my mom friends say they haven’t had to get a 2nd opinion and feel she should have be more straight forward.

Hi guys, I was wondering how I’d go about calling the maternity unit at the hospital to let them know I’m in labour in preparation of a water birth. I was told by my midwife to contact them once I start labour but unsure whether I’d call 999 or triage as it wasn’t clear in the conversation.

I’m 5.5 weeks pregnant. I had a C section with my last baby almost 4 years ago. Did anyone else experience more cramps with activity in their pregnancies after having had a C-section? I’m thinking it might be due to scar tissue? I’m really worried bc the pain is pretty intense. Any and all feedback is welcome! The doctor is no help

My 7 month old hates water, I have tried everything and there is no way he will drink any water at all, just spits it out.
Any recommendation? x
