Tap water

Has anyone else’s baby been unsettled after having tap water?
My daughter had just turned 6 months old the other day and we’ve been giving her cool boiled water with her tea then today I gave her tap water instead she was fine after but when it come to falling asleep she’s really struggling slept about 2 hours and woke up screaming really hard to settle her crunching up and arching her back she normally sleeps 7-7 might wake up for her dummy but then go straight back to sleep. I don’t know if it’s because she’s got a bit of a cold or if the water has upset her tummy a bit. She also did quite a loose poo whilst she was trying to fall asleep which she never goes then

Struggling...

I love my babies dont get me wrong. They have about a year and 6 months in between them. Currently am feeling like a rubbish mother, I feel so run down and tired all the time. Have moments when the little one (5months) wakes up am not always happy to see her, coz it comes with a lot of effort and attention that sometimes am just too tired and just want to relax or get some rest. With my oldest I know that is easy shes a very independent girl and will play on her own and watch her shows when am resting my eyes. But ofcourse this makes me feel guilty as I feel like I should be doing more for them but my body just won't allow it at the moment. I feel guilty mainly because i love my little one but sometimes think about how life would be much easier and simpler if it was just me and her older sister. I feel like is not PMAD postpartum but could It be?. Because at other times I can't wait for her to wake up (younger child) and play with her and make her smile. And other days I just feel like running away from them both, from everyone and come back the next day ofcourse. Just trying to process the emotions.

Shoes

My baby has just turned one. Do I need to get their feet measured? What shoes do they need, theyre just about to start walking...Am I overthinking this? 😂

Staying awake when breastfeeding

I'm really struggling to stay awake when breastfeeding I feel myself drifting off then my body jolts me awake. Does anyone have any tips I'm terrified of falling asleep and him falling or something.

Feeling depressed about our situation

Heya, I’m feeling so low and really struggling…. Our son will be turning 1 soon. He’s never naps in his cot, but does sleep in it at night (however in our room).
He used to do contact nap, then pram nap as he got older and that went ok for months up until now. He’s too aware and stimulated by the noise and especially the light.

We’re STRUGGLING to keep our room pitch black at night (using cardboard on window, double roller blinds and roman blinds….) but it’s literally impossible during the day…. Streaks of light everywhere….

We’re now also struggling with night sleep as he wakes up crying and something settles on his own, most of the time, doesn’t.

We know we need to get him to sleep in his cot during the day, it just feels impossible (we have tried on many occasions before). He knows what’s coming and goes hysterical, then it’s too bright, then the neighbours make noise. Pick up-Put down method only stimulates him more, same his patting, shushing, etc.

We are so tired and need help. Any advice?
