Did anyone else's baby reach 6 weeks and then just stop going to sleep at night and stop going down during the day?
Been over an hour of trying to get him to sleep after excessive crying and he's just wide awake

Yep!!!!

We are in this at the moment. The minute I put him down he wakes. Yesterday it took hours for him to finally give in. But then once asleep he only woke twice the whole night x

Yes!! We are deep in the trenches of this, I think it sorts itself out but it is so hard when they’re wide awake and fighting their sleep!

5 weeks here and it’s started I think! Xx

Yep, I am shattered. 1 hour and 45 mins sleep in total last night
I have a 13 day old and I have been able to make enough Milk to feed my baby. Im a first time mom, so i dont know alot about babies and I have a lack of exposure to them growing up.
I currently have the philips Avant natural bottle with the super slow nipple (size 1). I noticed that my daughter takes very little volume (varies from 10 to 50 ml max per feed). My health care provider told me we should feed her atleast 70 ml per feed now, because she is lagging behind her target weight.
We already adjusted the house temp to 21 to 23 celsius and consistently feed her during her window. Is there something i should try? Help! Photo for easier tracking 😀

Hey mamas. I am 4 weeks postpartum and got my period. Or what I suspect is my period. Heavy bleeding, and stomach cramps. But I’m a google feen and looked it up. It says that it’s not typical to get your period 4 weeks postpartum if I’m combination feeding. I pump, and let her latch. Also supplementing with formula because I can’t keep up with her feedings sometimes.
I had a C-section on September 19th. I’m still healing in one specific spot that occasionally feels like tugging or pulling.
Has anyone else experienced this?

Hi my 4 1/2 month old baby will almost only sleep in the pram during the day. We have to put her in the pram and take her out for walks in order for her to go to sleep. I have tried just pushing the pram back-and-forth in the garden but it rarely works. I’ve also tried doing it in the house that almost never works. I’ve tried rocking her to sleep. I’ve tried putting her in a dark room during the day. Does anyone have any advice on how I can try and get my daughter to take daytime naps where I’m not having to put her in a pram and walk her, obviously with the weather turning colder. I’m very reluctant to have to leave the house 4 to 5 times a day and walk just so I can get her to nap.

Does anyone else put baby on front to sleep? I don’t need comments telling me the guidance, I know it but baby is suffering with reflux, much happier on their front, 4 months old and can roll both ways but doesn’t roll in the night, just wakes up screaming.
Has anyone with a baby who rolls ever put them down on their front or been advised to due to similar issues?
