Sleep regression

I’m sorry but why is there a sleep regression at every bloody age. “Oh your babies not sleeping…must be the 3.5 week sleep regression?” With my first I read about sleep regressions and when to expect them, since then it’s like all you see are posts about 7 week, 8 week, 9 week sleep regression etc etc.

Developmentally it does seem to be a thing but are we just calling every time baby doesn’t sleep well for a few days a sleep regression??

WHAT ACTUALLY IS A SLEEP REGRESSION 🤣

If I was a new mum reading them all I’d be scared🤣

Advice on headbutting

Hi I was wondering if anyone has any advice on what to do about my son headbutting his crib at night. He’s almost two and every night to soothe himself he hits his head relatively hard and this morning we got him up with this bruise on his head. Any advice on how to stop him hurting himself would be great

Sleeping position?

Does anybody else’s newborn sleep in an odd position? Or can anyone tell me why my baby does this? It looks super uncomfortable and no matter how many times I readjust him he goes back into this same position. He favourites the left side as well, he never does this on the other side.

MIL not listening

Just looking for a bit of advice. I'm really lucky to have a "village" and once a week my MIL watches the baby (10 wk), so I can shop/nip to the gym etc. The only problem is she doesnt feed her. Ill have expressed ready to go or formula as back up but she never feeds her.
My LO tends to cluster feed a little on a morning as shes a decent night sleeper, but only really cries at desperation - she puts her hand in her mouth or grunts as early warnings. Ive told MIL this, and asked her to feed when she sees it. Ive tried saying "she was fed 30 mins ago, she'll want another in half hour", but she never does.
Yesterday I explained shed been really hungry and hadnt expressed much as shed fed so much I hadnt had chance, said to give her a little formula as she'll want it in about 45 mins. I got home 3 hours later and asked how much shed eaten.
"Oh, nothing, she had a little cry but we distracted and she went to sleep. She'll probably be starving when she wakes up".
She was starving. And then had both sides (which she doesnt normally do) and ended up more refluxy and messed up her timings all night, so she woke up more through the night (not ideal as we have an event today).
I dont wanna fall out as I'm grateful for the help but I'm running out of things to try. My husband is on my side and wants to tell her not to come if she just wants her "to sleep" and not actually look after her. Any advice??
