Being sick PP

Hiya, I need some advice if this has happened to anyone PP.

Since around 7/8 months PP I started being sick here and there, I put it down to stress due to work. However it stopped for a month or so but it’s just started back up again I’m a year PP.

I’m due back to work soon so could be stress but it feels more, physically I feel like my body is giving up on me abit just achey tummy, back & legs just feel very week and achey (lack of sleep and exhaustion) but wondering if anyone else had this PP and what it was?

I’m still breastfeeding to. Struggling to come away from it as my baby relies on it so much especially when teething but maybe it’s getting too much for me.

I am going to go to the doctors but it being the weekend and a long wait for apts I’m just wondering in the mean time🙏🏻

I haven’t had this no sorry! May it’s a bit of stress/anxiety at going back to work which it totally understandable, I kept getting headaches around the time of going back to work. Best to get it checked out with GP xxx

Daily bath time?

Are there any mums who are bathing their babies daily? My daughters 7 weeks old and I’m only bathing her 2/3 times a week as recommended by my midwife but I feel it helps soothe her tummy as well as relaxes her before bedtime and I’m wondering if I should add more baths into our routine!

Sleeping at Night

I gave birth on 31st March. FTM struggling, my baby hates being put down, hates the next to me crib. We’ve tried swaddling, sleep bags, white noise, any advice I would be so grateful. I haven’t had much sleep since giving birth so grateful for any tips

Stopping breastfeeding at night?

For EBF babies, how on earth do we start settling them without the boob? My boy is 9 months and wont settle from night wakes unless he has the boob 😫

Sleep

Hi everyone. My baby girl is nearly 7 weeks old and loves to cuddle. This means she really doesn’t like to be put down and whether it’s in her next to me bed, play mat or bouncer chair we only get a maximum of 10-20 mins before she cries. She gets so upset bless her. At night she will go a 1.5-2.5 hours in between feeds if we let her sleep on us. Does anyone have any advice for how we can help her settle in her next to me bed at night for a bit longer? I’m exhausted from a vicious cycle of putting her down, comforting /feeding her after she gets so upset, burping and trying all over again all night. Thank you! ❤️

Sex post partum

I’m 6 weeks post partum, had natural birth with a couple of stitches, i feel all healed now but I know inside it takes ages to get back to normal. How long did everyone wait before having sex after birth? I can’t wait but I’m scared In case I have it to soon

HELP! 10 week old only sleeping if held!

My 10 week old baby wants to be held all the time but worse, he would only sleep if being held, for both day and night sleep!
It's always been like that since he was born. We got to a point that he was starting to have some occasional naps and maybe a couple of hours at night time, but it all regressed suddenly a couple of weeks ago and we don't seem to be able to get him down in either his next to me or bassinet.
He hates anything that is not arms, pram,car seat even the carrier, you name it.
I got to a point of being so tired and husband not been able to help due to work that I just started to go along with him for both of us sanity. The thing is I am petrified of what could happen at night time. I have him in my arms but protected/supported with a nursing pillow for him not to fall or get trapped etc but I can't control him bending his head onto his chest with me not being a flat surface.
I've tried all the tricks, warming his bed, blankets, waiting 10/20/30/40 minutes, putting him down super slowly with head last, placing one of my tops in the crib, white noise, swaddling (which he hates as wants arms free), but NOTHING seems to work.
I am desperate and exhausted but mostly worried about the worst that could happen.
I was keeping strong hoping it would resolve itself with time but I hear people still having same issues even past 4 months.
Anyone that can relate or have experience that can tell me how they've managed and what to expect?
At least I'll come to peace having to live with this until I go back to work in 10 months time! :(
