Sensory

Hey, my son is 3 coming up to 4 he isn’t diagnosed yet we are currently going through speech and language.
He constantly needs to rub my arm with his hand or rub his face on my arm, if I have a long sleeve top on he will say arm till I get my arm out. He sits next to me all day rubbing my arm and same at bed time I have to leave my arms out as he will wake and want my arm.
Just wanted to know if anyone else kids do same sort of thing xxx

Breastfeeding

So I see that a lot of moms on here are exclusively breastfeeding and I wanted to know was it hard for you the first little bit and I assume it eventually gets easier and at what point is that? I’m 4 wks pp and some days I feel like I’m getting the hang of it but other days I’m like maybe I should just pump or give formula and nothing wrong with that a few months in I did that with my first. But I really wanna give it a proper shot this time

Please give me all tips and tricks that worked for you sometimes my baby keeps falling asleep at the breast every 4-5 m so I feel like I’m constantly feeding her. Nothing wakes her up not diaper changes, not tickling or applying cold she just wakes up like half an hour later and I’m feeding her again. So for times like that I get so frustrated she’s not getting a full feed at the boob

Anyways just wondering if it ever gets easier, less painful, faster and you become more confident because I’m already 4 weeks and don’t feel that

Early mornings

Hi! My 6 month old has got into the habit of wanting to start the day at 5am instead of 6:30 - what is the best way to manage this?

No sleep

So my 5 week old won’t sleep in her crib.. everytime we put her down she will start to cry then eventually scream. She is fed and changed so we are not sure what the issue is… but maybe it’s because she is used to being held? any tips or advice? pls help

Laundry

Hey there!
What do you guys use to get those yellow poop stains off clothes? I’ve been trying a bit of everything but nothing seems to work well for me
Thank you!

Advice for baby sleeping not on me at night please 🙏

Baby is only a few days old but refuses to go into basket over night. During the day he doesn’t seem to mind but no matter how long I hold him for after a feed at night he screams the second I put him down.
My husband tried to take him for me just now so I could get even an hours sleep but he screamed until back on me again straight away.
Even though again day time will happily have cuddles with Dad.

Any advice at all as I don’t know how my body will actually recover if I’m up over 20 hours a day 😵‍💫

Tell me...

I need to know all the secrets Mama especially those mamas who are over the age of 35. During postpartum did you have a problem with shedding like your hair constantly falling out or thinning? No matter what I do or take or anything my hair will not go back to being full again. I haven't had full hair since my second oldest daughter was born. I'm on birth control. I take prenatals I use anti thinning hair care system. I'm doing it all. I'm getting stressed out because this is crap. What are your go-to secrets now? I'm going to say this as a n FYI I have psoriasis on my scalp due to allergies so I need sensitive friendly
