Washing clothes

Washing all our clothes we have so far! Just wondered if everyone does this and if so, when is it safe to stop pre washing clothes before wear?

Partner snoring…

Does anyone else really struggle with their partners snoring when they are awake during night feeds?! My husband is such a bad snorer at the moment - not usually, but he’s gained a bit of weight with me during my pregnancy which he’s working hard to lose but the extra weight has made him a snorer. He is SO loud it is actually ridiculous. Snores on his back, side and front too so no relief! I know he can’t do anything about it but the rage I feel at 3/4am when I’m awake and he’s making that racket!!! Ashamed to say I’ve shoved him a fair few times during his sleep now telling him to shut up 🤣

Drinking whilst breastfeeding

Is it safe to have a glass of wine whilst breast feeding or not? Some people say it’s fine others say differently

I cannot lay him down

Any time I try to hand my son to someone or lay him down he screams and cries even when I give him to his father. It's usually okay if he can see me but the second I try to go out of the room to get something done he just screams inconsolably. Nothing is working. I need help

Night feeds

How does everyone cope with night feeds? My baby is 4 weeks old, and is formula / bottle fed. Generally wakes every 3 hours for his feed. Thank you!

4 month old sleeping in cot a few feet away

I know this might sound silly haha but just a genuine question!
Our 4 month old usually sleeps in a next to me cot right next to our bed. We’ve moved our room around and I have enough space now I can move her cot a few feet back and give myself room to get in and out of the bed without climbing down to the bottom.
Is this okay or is it still recommended for them to be right next to the bed?

Sleep changes @ 6 weeks

Has anyone else experienced changes in sleep at the 6 week development leap? We were getting some decent blocks of 2/3 hours sleep and calm wake ups but this has suddenly changed to hourly wake ups (or less!) with frantic/quick escalating cries once he’s woken. I don’t remember this change with my first at such an early age!
