Have you ever experienced post partum rage? The kind that makes you scared of yourself.

Still seems taboo to mention but just wondering how common this actually is?

Rant and rage

I'm not coping and don't feel supported in the way I need. I try and voice how I feel and I get met with silence and huffs and puffs
My son has problems feeding and gaining weight yet my mil insists on holding and comforting him rather than listening to me saying I should try feed him or change him. I get ignored. Same with my toddler she will continue to give her treats when I say no as 1 was enough and doesn't need 3 of somthing. I feel pushed out and not respected
I'm finding it hard very hard

Honest question

Do you ever place your baby on their front to go to sleep? I’m talking 7+ months. Especially if you know they will sleep better and longer?

Weaning

Started weaning my son today, he was 6months on Friday. I tried broccoli blended & a piece of broccoli- he had a few mouthfuls and it seemed positive that he liked it but he did gag a couple of times then projectile vomitted, I’m assuming this is because his stomach is still sensitive etc, he wanted more afterwards so had 2 more little mouthfuls but then I called it a day. Has anyone else experienced this?

What time does everyone put their little ones to bed?

My daughter is nearly 4 and a half months, 6 bottles a day and she has 6oz every 4 hours roughly.

My problem is she fights her sleep and has done since birth (even though we are in the middle of the regression at the moment 🙃) she doesn't go down for the night until half 9, sometimes 10pm.

I know this is not ideal at all but my first daughter who is now 2 was such an easy baby compared to her. Once shes down for the night, she sleeps for 8/9 hours a night but getting her to go down is a nightmare

Also in the day shes a cat napper. My first daughter just went down to bed and stayed asleep

Night feeding

Hello

How long are you mamas typically awake overnight per feeding session that your baby wakes up for. Mine is 5 weeks and I’m currently breastfeeding and sometimes I’ll offer top up in a bottle depending on how hungry she is. And I feel like I’m awake anywhere from 1.5-2.5 hours with her each time with feeding, diaper change, burping. Curious how long it is for y’all?
