Weird but honest question

I will be having my first child in August and I am planning to breastfeed but, I’m concerned whether it will feel weird. I enjoy nipple play during intimacy so I’m not sure if that will shut off automatically when I breast feed or if I’ll have a weird feeling and want to be able to prepare my response to it because I’d have to reject the baby on my breast due to a weird/odd feeling that is supposed to be sexual to me. I don’t know how to explain it. I’m just worried it might have that same feeling and I don’t want to have that while breast feeding. Will this be true? Are there any alternatives? Or will I need to pump?

Breastfeeding did not give me any type of sexual response while baby was feeding. During intimacy while I was breastfeeding, I absolutely hated when my partner tried to go anywhere near my nipples, so they were off limits to him until baby started to wean.

Just try to remember your feeding a baby and the baby is getting FOOD

Baby sleeps with his head turned mostly to one side ?

Little one is 4 months and I’ve noticed he has a favourite side to turn his head and it’s very slightly flatter than the other side due to him always facing that way, even when he’s awake he faces one way. He can turn his head both ways but even when carrying him he always looks left. I’ve even tried switching his position in the crib but he still prefers one side. and When he’s sleeping I gently move his head to the centre so he’s looking straight but he moves it back to one side after a while. He does suck his thumb on one hand so I guess it could be to do with that? I just don’t want him to have a wonky head or face bless him, has anyone had this ?
I might go to the GP

18 months and started asking up during the night..

My son is 18 months coming up this month and he’s been in a bit of a routine for a while now. Still takes time going to sleep on a night etc but he’s started waking up crying 1/2 times but screaming.. if I bring him into bed he goes back to sleep so he can’t be up and he’s done with his sleep? But can’t also leave him screaming at 2am or 4am what could it be? He’s not hungry as if he’s hungry it’s a different cry I know it and he wouldn’t go back to sleep at all

How do you babies sleep?

Is this normal for a 6.5 month old.

Asleep for 7:00-8:00
Awake at 11:00 (Dummy and Rocked)
Awake at 2:00 for a Bottle.
Awake at 5:30.

He can also sometimes awake at 3 for Dummy and Rocked.

I feel like I am getting no quality sleep!
