Exhausted with lack of sleep

My daughter is 5 months today. For at least 2 months we've been stuck in what I thought was a sleep regression. In the night she wakes up every 1 hr - 2 hrs and sometimes doesn't fall back to sleep for 2 hrs. In the daytime she will fight her naps, no matter what time I put her down. If she is not contact napping, she will wake up around the 25 minute mark. I managed to get her to start napping in her cot for 35-40 min for 2 weeks and now the crying and fussing has started for each nap and also her bedtime sleep. I am absolutely exhausted. I ebf at night so I am basically awake all night everynight. My brain is fried. I have no patience by the time its 9am and have no energy for my 6 year old. I make the room dark, use white noise, sing to her and hold her upright until she is limp and put her down. There is no point putting her in bed drowsy as she will get a 2nd wind and never go to sleep. Help me please, I am so tired

Why do people have such audacity?!

On vacation with my husband & our youngest baby (10 months). We’re walking down the street & this older lady sees my baby walking & asks how old she was & I answer. Then she says look at that hair & touches her head then immediately pats me on the back & says congratulations. While I’m sure there was good intent, why do random people feel entitled to touching a strangers baby?! It happened so quickly I didn’t even get a chance to react before realizing what had transpired. Would this peeve you?

Pushchair vs carrycot

Has anybody put their bay in the seat attachment yet or are they still in the carry cot. My baby is really nosey and I feel like she’d benefit from being in the pushchair attachment so that she can see but I still feel like she’s small and should be in the carrycot. I know people with older babies who are still in the carrycot so I’m just not sure.

She cries when she’s in the carry cot but is really happy when I pick her up and she can look around. Think part of it is I’m not ready for her to be in the pushchair as it makes her seem like a bigger baby than she is.

Any advice would be appreciated

Baby sleeping in next to me

My baby is 12 weeks old and we mostly cosleep. When we Co sleep he wakes 2 times in the night (bed 11pm - first wake 4am - second wake 6:30am), but when I put him to sleep in the next to me crib he wakes up every 45mins. He is breastfed. Any advice on helping him sleep longer stretches in the crib please.

Do you think if I just completely stop cosleeping he’ll eventually sleep longer in the next to me ?

3 year old keeps touching our hips

Our 3 year old (boy) keeps touching and pinching my husbands and my hip. We keep telling him no but he doesn’t listen and it probably happens at least 10x daily. I can’t find anything about it on dr. Google - does anyone else deal with this and what to do?

Baby milestones

Hi mums! I have a question as I’ve been stressing myself out a lot! My 5 month old daughter cannot roll from either tummy to back or back to tummy. She can hold her head up etc and I try to do as much tummy time as I can. Should I be worried? I keep seeing similar aged babies rolling and also starting to crawl. Please help!

Is it normal for my 2 month old to spit up every time I feed her

Thanks in advance
