Night wakes and breastfeeding

Anyone else’s little one still not sleeping through the night? Feel like I’ve tried everything to help support her to sleep better. She can self soothe but this doesn’t happen very often, is completely reliant on boob for comfort and has no interest in any other form of soothing. Feel like I’m at my whits end…. Can’t afford a sleep coach (and feel like their prices just pray on vulnerable women!!). I just don’t know what to do, I go back to work next week and I woke 8am-8pm. I’m not sure how I’m supposed to function 😮‍💨

Sighhhh yes same here! Following for tips!

I’m back to work next month and not sure how it’s going to work. I went cold turkey with my firstborn, and although it worked I didn’t want to do that this time round!

The gag is that my LO is now exclusively bottle fed, but since taking away her dummy when she was around 10months old, I found myself replacing it with the boob 😭

I think this might be our issue- we’re co-sleeping too! 😭

I’m in the same boat! I go back to work soon and stressing how I’m going to manage - my boy has never had a dummy so I’m his comfort. I may be lucky and he does few hours in his cot but I get so tired I give up and end up co sleeping 😴

Well I got a bit excited last week as he did one whole night but since then he was back to one wake again and tonight he’s been up 3 times already 😢

Car seat

When did people take the new born install out of their car seats, I think it’s time for him to be taken out his just turned 9 weeks but others are telling me he is fine?? I can’t seem to find a weight limit or height limit for the install anywhere just for the car seat in general??

Speech

My LO has just turned 6m and I noticed today how she the last few weeks she has decreased the amount she babbles and doesn’t seem as interested in trying to talk. She smiles and watches our mouthes when talking to her though.
Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this?

Transfer from bassinet to pram?

When are we transferring babies from bassinet to pushchair? My little boy is very long so it feels like he will have outgrown it very soon yet I thought the guidelines were for them to sleep on their backs until 6 months?
He's my last baby so I'm going to be do sad to see him move on from the bassinet 😭

Burping and vomiting

My 5 weeks old burps after some feeds but not all, is it ok to let him go to sleep? Last two nights he has vomited once a night trying to get a burp out. Very big vomit from his nose and mouth. How can I help prevent the vomiting?

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…
