Anyone else's baby react to music?

My baby seem to love music and usually react when I put on music with kicks and movements. I can't believe that he is already a little person with preferences and have a favourite song (unfortunately, it's Baby Shark 🦈)

Anyone else?

Completely normal , most babies do it.

When I first started feeling my twins (and my oldest) I started putting a speaker on my belly for them to have a little wiggle to 🤣 now I do it when we’ve had a quiet day with little movement

Yes defo, I am fully staying away from baby music though, I went through the baby shark phase with my eldest an I cannot face that again just yet 🤦🏼‍♀️

He’s currently getting an eclectic mix of Progressive, Trance, Mumford & Sons and The Teskey Brothers 🤣

We have a vinyl player and Rod Stewart’s been a hit, and a lot of older classics. It’s amazing how they are so aware of the world

4m sleep regression

My daughter is 16 weeks old now and prior to about 2 weeks ago she used to be such a good sleeper at night. One maybe 2 wakes at most and she slept through the night a handful of times!

Since she hit 14 weeks, everything changed 😅 she wakes up constantly all night, 5-10 times a night.. I’m exhausted! I think the 4 month sleep regression came a little early for us ?

We’re 2 weeks into it now with no sign of it getting any better, how long can I expect this to go on for? Will she ever be a good sleeper again? 😫

Triple Feeding 🙃 Nipple Shield Weaning ? Any success stories !??

Hi everyone. My baby girl was born on 25th September at 34 weeks (she was 5lb 5oz) and we spent a couple weeks in hospital afterwards. Initially for the first 7 days she was tube fed and we were discharged triple feeding, so I breastfeed (have only had success with a nipple shield 🙃) then I top up with 45ml breastmilk afterwards and then pump. This is not sustainable long term but I guess I'm just looking for any success stories from doing this?!? I don't really know what to do, she doesn't transfer milk very well whilst breastfeeding as every feed takes a good half hour per breast (if I manage to get her to latch) and then she needs the top up after. It all feels a bit pointless using the nipple shield but she is completely reliant, has anyone managed to wean their little one off? I went to a breastfeeding clinic locally and found it a bit stressful so don't really want to go back (I just had a lady trying to shove my boob in her mouth for 20 mins without a shield whilst she screamed hysterically). I don't really know what to do and just feel like I need some reassurance to bin it all off and transition to formula maybe? Or shall I wait it out??

She will be 4 weeks on Friday and is now 5lb 14oz (up from 5lb 5oz).

Sending hugs to all you September mums 😄 xxxx
