It’s 5am, my baby is just bringing back up all the milk I’m feeding him 😖 I’m soaked, he’s soaked, the bed is soaked. He’s wide awake just staring at me like ‘what now?’ Husband snoring peacefully next to us, of course.
I feel like I need my mum to come clean us both up and tuck us in.

He has now closed his eyes 🫣🤞🤞🤞🤞

How old is your baby? And that was me in your situation I took my baby to his pediatrician and we switched to enfomil ar with added rice. Worked like a charm & hasn’t had any throw ups at all!

I hope you managed to get you both sorted and a little bit more sleep x

This not to say that is nothing more "serious" but at this stage babies tend to look for the suction action type comfort, specially if on the boob, and they sometimes overfeed a little. My now 10 weeks old was doing the same a couple of weeks ago. I exclusively breastfeed and when I noticed that LO has fed for a fair amount of time and starts getting agitated but still trying to feed, I remove her from the boob and rock her a little and try and burp. If she is hungry, I will definitely see those hunger cues afterwards, if not, she is luckily to settle and fall asleep on my arms with a dummy. Worth a try if it sounds like it could be the case 🤷🏽♀️ my now toddler used to have the same problem and this is what I learned from them.

My now toddler didn't have one either so it was much harder to sooth without boob 😮💨 I could not survive without the dummy this time around 🫠
Is anyone else still wearing nursing bras even after they’ve stopped nursing because it’s just comfortable?? Because hi 🙋♀️. I would like nothing more than to retire them as war heroes but what are we all wearing as alternatives? Does anyone have recommendation for comfy supportive cute bras? ‘Cause the girls do be needing more support after 9 months of nursing. I was looking at the Knix no underwire ones.

I’m so excited and trying to get organised but not sure if I’m rushing. All advice welcome❤️
1. I’m having an elective c section what after care bits were actually helpful? Are the silicone patches worth it when did you start using and what brand is best? Was a peri bottle still necessary for cleaning the downstairs area or not?
2. Maternity bras. What ones would you recommend and also when did you get them I was thinking of getting them pretty soon but also not sure if they’ll fit by the time I need them or did you just size up or waited till closer to the time?
3. When did you start washing baby clothes and packing hospital bag? I pretty much have everything we need already so I could pack now I just don’t know if I should wait. Same with washing babies clothes etc I plan on washing all newborn and 0-3 months initially then bigger sizes closer to when she’ll actually need them but I still have 8 weeks how early did you start washing clothes and organising drawers etc?

My daughter was a late walker at nearly 20 months but this one is determined to climb, cruise, move at not even 9 months. Any tips on helping him move around safely when I’ve got him and his sister (3) to watch?

When did you make the change? Nearly 4 months old and naps in her pram, she woke up today and decided to roll over in the bassinet 😂 Is it time to put the chair on? :(( she’s probably more than ready, I however, am not 😭

Everytime my first attempt at crib transfer fails, the second attempt always fails too. I then finish it as a contact nap. Only if I get it right in first attempt does the baby continue with the nap in the crib. After how many minutes do you re-attempt if it fails once? Any tips / suggestions on what I could do differently?

My mum has recently found a free pram that’s she’s brought home for us, it’s a bugaboo chameleon 3, with an L shaped bucket seat, but it also reclines back fully (will include pictures). There’s some parts missing, we’ll need to get more straps for it. As the seat fully reclines, I’m guessing there’s some sort of seat you can put it in for babies that need to lie at an 180 angle. I really need help finding a seat, I have no idea what to look for or any of the pram terminology. I’m hoping to get something to put in it for a newborn before thinking about buying a whole other pram well only use for 5 months. Any advice appreciated
