Periods

Had baby end of December and bled for a few weeks. Have since bled a little and had one actual period last month. Express milk everyday too. When did your period return? How frequently?

Mine came back only 2 weeks ago, I was gutted. Nevertheless that was a good 1 year run without it 🤭😂

I had my first PP period around 6 weeks after birth, had a few days break and had another one. Had a period in February and then a week later had another. 4 weeks later and now having another... even though I'm now on the pill and very rarely had a period.. but heyho must be my body readjusting! 🫠

I've still not had mine! Had a bleed after birth, which stopped and then restarted (which i thought was a period) but then not had one since

Sleep during the day.

My nearly 4 week baby girl loves her sleep at night and will easily settle back down after her feeds however, during the day I struggle to get her to sleep or when she does she will sleep in my arms, if I try to transfer her to her cot she wakes straight away. Any suggestions on how I can help her or what I’m doing wrong?

18 months

How many words is good for 18 months? My child says 22 words that I’ve counted and I feel proud but is this just average lol

Wake windows a myth for some?

My baby seems to laugh in the face of wake windows. We wake around 6-7am, he might fall asleep after his breakfast feed for a little bit but his only other long nap is our lunchtime walk in the carrier. Otherwise he is awake for hours on end but seemingly quite happy.

If anyone has a newborn who also doesn’t conform to the whole 60m rule, don’t worry, your baby isn’t broken and you’re not doing anything wrong, just go with their flow!

Bed Time - 4 months old

Hey mamas! How is everyone coping with an early bed time routine at 4 months old? My old friend chat gpt reckons that an early bed time of 7pm-9pm should be the norm but my girl will not go to bed until after 10pm 😭. Is it too early for sleep training or do most just follow their baby’s tired cues? X

Did anyone else’s epidural not work?

Writing retrospectively here. I had a epidural with my 1st baby in 2025 and it pretty much had no effect, I was in absolute agony the whole time (hours). Anyone else experience this?

Midwife now says this isn’t normal and I shouldn’t have been in pain.
Due my 2nd in 6 weeks and debating weather I should go for one again. 😣
