Ferber technique

Has anyone had success with doing Ferber?? My 10 month old was an amazing sleeper until he was 6-7 months old, and now we’ve had 3-4 straight months of insane sleep deprivation and it’s leaving me at my wits end. He only settles by us picking him up and rocking or just holding him, but immediately wakes up and is unsettled when we put him in his cot. It takes hours to settle him, but then he’ll still wake a few hours later anyway. We’ve tried everyyyyything, light, no light, sleeping bag, blanket, different pyjamas, nappy change, dummy, white noise, you name it we’ve done it. Were against the cry it out method so Ferber sleep training seems like a happy medium. Has anyone done it? Or does anyone have any more advice? I’m desperate 😫

Hi! Does anyone have any recommendations on helping baby sleep when teething?

He wakes up screaming and it breaks my ♡ He is only 5 months

Is this true?

There was a post I read which I can’t get out of my mind. I have a son and a daughter (both under 2). It basically said how daughters become a reflection of us, they are a mirror back at us showing us the good and bad and making us reflect. The same with sons and their fathers eventually.

My marriage has been a wreck since we had kids, constant bickering and disrespect. There are good parts. Would I want my daughter to be who I am now? Someone who accepts being spoken to like this? I used to be a very strong, loud, proud and extroverted person. I would love for her to be like be like the person I was 5 years ago. However, now I feel silenced in my home, allowing myself to be disrespected. I can’t say all of the changes are due to my husband, maybe motherhood too.

I can’t stop thinking, would I want my son to treat his future wife how I am being treated? No. Would I want my daughter accepting being spoken to this way? No.

He is a good dad in many other ways, he does provide, plays with them, helps with bedtime routine etc. but we are failing to model a good relationship. I dont think he likes me anymore, let alone love. I’ve brought up therapy many times but he will never agree.

Maybe it’s best to be apart? I don’t know what messes up kids less.

C-section Mama, loosing baby weight.

Hi Mamas.
So I’m 3 months postpartum after having an emergency c-section. I’m exclusively breastfeeding, therefore I’m not on any diet to make sure I keep my milk supply coming.
I JUST fully healed and I feel ready to start working out to get my body back but idk where to start or what to do.
Also, I had a big pregnancy belly, so now my belly is kinda folded into itself and I desperately want it gone 😅.
But most importantly, I need to find a sweet spot between keeping my milk supply the same and losing weight/getting fit.
I need advice!

Colostrum to Full Supply Timeline?

Hello, I’m currently experiencing some of the pain points with breastfeeding. Cluster feeding seems to take a huge toll and I’m just worried I’m not producing or supplying enough even in these early days..

After delivery, how long did it take for you to get a full supply??
