Cot bumpers/rolling in cot

Hey all,

My six month old daughter can roll from back to front, but she cannot yet roll front to back. She is currently rolling in her cot and not able to roll back onto her back.

She is in her own room now, and I’m getting worried that I won’t hear her in the middle of the night if she’s on her front.

I was wondering if there is anything out there that can help prevent her rolling in the cot.

I also need recommendations for cot bumpers due to her getting her legs stuck through the panels on the cot when rolling (picture of cot below).

Thank you x

I’m So Proud

I got my baby hair to grow finally she’s now 7 months you got to maintain girls hair twice a day

I got the ick, am I terrible?

I’ve been getting the ick from mother in law and really wish I wouldn’t!

I’m 7mos postpartum and it’s still just as strong as when I was freshly postpartum but I’d been shoving it down hoping it’d disappear. It’s to the point where I wash everything after she holds baby and want to bathe her right after but worried I’d offend my husband. She kisses her so much, like keeps her lips on her when she’s holding her, and I’ve never told her not to but it drives me crazy and now she’s given her a nickname that’s after her own name (she’s named after the women in my family so it feels weirdly personal).

Am I just hormonal af???

Are you happy?

If you’re not, please reach out to someone (professional and personal)

Thanks to seeing my doctor when I was struggling and choosing a fairly low dose of medication I can now click ‘mostly’ on this poll.

Before; it would have been ‘no’.
Not because I am unhappy in my relationship or with my 3 young children but because I wasn’t feeling myself and wasn’t being the best I could be for them (I looked after them all and even played with them but I personally felt like shit)

Now I feel so much better and almost every day is a happy one since I have sought help so I encourage people in the same position as I was to do the same xx

Nobody warned me about this part of having two kids 😭

Not the no sleep. not the chaos. the part where your toddler keeps hurting the baby and you don't know what to say in that exact moment. I have tried everything. I sat with it alone for months. what finally changed it was nothing I had read anywhere 😭 anyone else been through this?

Formula feeding on the go

Formula feeding mummas, how do you make bottles when out and about?

My 7 week old baby is on cmpa formula (aptamil pepti 1) so the ready made bottles are a no go, and we’re out for the whole day tomorrow. She’s typically feeding every 2-3 hours.

Please give me all of your advice and tips, it’s making me really anxious! Thank you in advance 🍼
