Crunchy mamas

I have just gone the rabbit hole of non toxic life. I’m trying to change bit by bit! What I’m struggling with is diapers and baby wipes. What do you use? I was looking into dry wipes but all I could find is honest brand but they don’t do it in the uk

Feeds during nursery day

My daughter is starting nursery 3 days a week in June (will have turned one 3 days prior). She still breast feeds at least 3 times during the day. I’m not sure what to do when she starts nursery as I find it hard to get any milk when I express so don’t think that’ll be an option. Has anyone found that when their just turned 1 year old has started nursery that they just adapt without being BF during the day?

The closer we’re getting, the more anxious I feel about it😫

Broken sleep for over two months

My baby boy gets so congested through the night but is absolutely fine in the day, we’ve had multiple doctors visits now but don’t seem to be getting no where. Has anyone else had this issue and if so please could I have advice? We’re both not getting much sleep in the night and it’s exhausting.😢

Why is it that my 7.5 month old either wakes up for a feed during the night and sleeps until 5:30am but when he doesnt wake for a night feed he is sleep until 4:20am.

Any help to understanding this or any advice and how to help him sleep till 6am would be appreciated. He has 2 or 3 naps during the day (3 hours total) and goes to bed for 7pm every night.

Night feeding questions

My LO is 6 months and still wakes every 2/3 hours sometimes every hour at night. She wants the boob but I’m not sure she’s actually hungry and she just wants comfort. If I cuddle and pick her up she settles but I cannot transfer her back to the cot. Anyways I’m a hella tired mama seriously unsure of what to do.

Baby falling asleep while breastfeeding

It’s been so stressful. My 2 week old keeps falling asleep during breastfeeding.

She had jaundice at 2 days and had to be topped up with formula which was really something I didn’t want to do.

So now our feeding regimen is breastfeed, then top up with formula then pump so my body starts to produce more milk.

The problem is that I am so stressed about being able to produce enough milk for her eventually. I really want to her off of formula asap but she really still needs the top up since I don’t think she’s getting enough from me.

I’ve spoken to multiple midwives and some lactation experts and they all say different things and tend to contradict each as well.

Anyone else experienced somethjng similar and resolved eventually?
