How many oz’s is your baby taking?

Curious how many oz’s every else’s babies are taking? My boy is having about 6-7oz’s which seems like a lot? The formula tin says at this age it should be 5 but he doesn’t seem satisfied after 5oz’s…

Notning will fucking shut her up!!!

2 nights in a row my daughter isn't even crying it's just noise and it's constant! NOTHING fucking works anymore! I had 2 hours sleep last night and at the moment ive had around 3 hours I feel like I'm in the newborn trenches all over again and I honestly just want to kill my self because I can't be fucking arsed for this shit anymore!

My son was a dream from 2 months old. My daughter is just a completely different child! I can't I just can't do it.

It's fine for her Dad to fuck off downstairs to the couch while I'm just in bed trying to do anything I can to settle her which nothing works!! I don't wanna put her in bed with me because I don't want to get her into the habit of co sleeping, a bottle used to settle her and now it doesn't. Shushing doesn't work, patting her doesn't work.

She's 19 months

I want to die!!!!!!!

Postpartum rage

I need help. My daughter is almost 2 months and I'm currently I'm doing everything by myself cause my bf can't be in the shelter with me. The staff doesn't help at all. I am diagnosed with bipolar and multiple personality disorder. I'm currently struggling to keep my cool with my daughter. But it's hard. I honestly don't know what to. I love my daughter with all my heart but I'm scared of myself cause I don't have my bf here to help me with our daughter. I'm currently sitting in the corner crying

Plz help

Feel like a failure as a mom, it’s only been 5 days

Had my baby via C-section on 9 April. Because she was a C-section baby, she had fluid in her lungs after birth that she couldn’t get out so she was transferred to neonatal unit. I feel like that was my fault because I chose to have an elective section.
Jump forward 5 days. I still have no milk supply despite double pumping like 4x per day. My baby is off the ventilator, but there’s talk of putting her back on because she’s not at a high enough saturation level (92% instead of 94+). She’s also not independently eating because she refuses to wake up and either put my boob in her mouth or take a bottle, so they’re tube-feeding her.
Now, she’s my first. I want to hold her all the time because she’s my first and because I want skin to skin and because skin to skin is supposed to help my milk supply (except right now I just feel like a fucking cow). My husband had skin to skin with her last night when her oxygen was low but when I took her, her oxygen level went right back to where it should be (96-100). So I come in when I’m awake and available and pick her up to hold her for those reasons. Then around meal time, I undress her to try and get her to wake up a bit. All these things make sense right?
Well, the midwife basically told my husband while I was sitting there asleep and attached to the pump that I shouldn’t hold her as much and that skin to skin is important but like, so is keeping her warm. And I’ve checked her temp. She’s hot when I take her blankets off and I put a blanket on when she’s cold and my husband even agreed with me today she was warm.

I just feel awful because I feel like I can’t do anything right. If we were at home, it would be just me and him and everything would be fine. But I’m so scrutinised here. I just feel like such a failure.
Thanks for reading.

Night feeds

I breastfeed my son. He's 2 weeks old and not back at birth weight yet. I wake him to feed in the night and on demand when he wakes. However. Tonight he has not fed much if at all. Just holds on to nipple or sleeps. I can't sleep as worried and keep trying to feed but he won't even attempt to latch.
I've got midwife tomorrow so I assume they will tell me ti formula feed as I'm failing st breastfeeding. I've tried the advice on how to latch and positions just doesn't work

NEED A HACK! 4 month old - holiday help!

We are going to Greece with our three children in 2 weeks for 10 days. We are in one room, the kids are 4, 2 and 4 months. Our baby is an okay sleeper but not great. She sleeps in a next to me at home. We’ve tried to the travel cot here and she hates it as it’s so big in comparison - is there anything that I can take on holiday to make it feel smaller so she might actually sleep?! I can’t find anything when I google or chat gpt the problem so hoping someone might have a hack! Thanks x

Skin yo skin challenges

My baby is 5 weeks old and we have hardly done any skin to skin. We did it at birth, and a few times in the first week. He has problems latching, so I'm feeding him with nipple shields after advice from a lactation consultant. After the first week we have hardly done any skin to skin. If I try, he tries to latch (even if he's not hungry) but he's unsuccessful so he gets super upset. Also, he always gets upset when I undress and dress him, so I end up not doing skin to skin for both reasons. However I now regret that I've lost so much time without doing it. Do you think I can start now? And if so, have you got any tips to overcome those challenges?
