Teething/sleep regression

How are we doing? My baby’s first 2 bottom teeth broke through over the weekend & I feel terrible for her. We’re trying everything, but she’s miserable 😔 she keeps waking up in the evening after bedtime because she can’t settle. we’re on a cold teething toy rotation, baby oragel (the non medicated one) and baby Tylenol when it gets really bad. Anyone have any tips that worked for you guys?

No advice just solidarity! No teeth have broken through yet but last week my guy started sleeping horribly and his gums are so angry, I can see where three different teeth are coming in. He usually sleeps 4-5 hour stretches and now he’s waking every 20 minutes unless I’m holding him 😫 Tylenol seemed to help a little bit last night but not completely

Allowing my daughter to comfort nurse really helped and still helps a lot! Other than that we tried magnesium lotion for the sleep regression and it does help her to actually fall asleep and stay asleep. We use the Earthley brand and it's been great.

Girl same. This week my baby has started not sleeping through the night like usual. She is waking up like 3 time a night wanting to play for like 45 minutes 😅
Her teeth are also coming in but the sleep is definitely a regression

What wrong with my baby

So I’m calling doctors tomorrow but just wanna check in here see if anyone knows what’s wrong. My daughter is 5 months old and in the past 2 weeks she’s started making these noises like she struggling for breath it doesn’t seem to bother her much and I thought it was bc she was getting excited before as it does happen when she’s exited but it’s started to get random she could be just sat there and it happen anyone know what’s could’ve going on !

First birthday party timing

What’s the best timing for a first birthday party? (Garden party at home)
Currently 9.5m old, on 2 naps roughly 9 & 13:00. Thinking 11:00-14:00? Is it likely they will drop to 1 nap by then?

Health visitors

I’m just wondering if any of your health visitors have made you feel like you’re not doing a good job as a mum by asking questions?

At what age did your baby start using pillows and duvet?

Perhaps a silly question, but as a FTM, I'm not sure when I should introduce my baby to sleep with a pillow and duvet. He is going to turn 12 months soon and that thought just came to my mind- I have no idea when it should happen!

What tog number is the recommend one?

Is it normal…

Is it normal for babies to lose their shit whilst they’re asleep?
Last night my baby was sound asleep and then started properly crying - I checked and his eyes were closed so decided to hold on incase he settled himself!
He just kept crying but was still asleep, I ended up waking him up to settle him back down with boob, he went back to sleep and did a bit of a dream feed. Then he had a normal wake up and feed, and back to sleep 3 hours later. Then he did it again, but this time I just picked him up, patted his bum and he stopped.
Is it normal, and if it is can I so anything to stop it as I can’t sleep through his crying at all 🫣
