We're in the UK & we go between Pampers (got a bunch at our baby shower) & then the Lidl or Aldi ones. We found the Aldi ones in size 1 were awesome but felt their size 2 were a little tight. Switched to lidl for size 2 & we've not had a single leak.

As for wipes, again we use the lidl or Aldi ones as they do water wipes / sensitive skin ones & we've had no issues

I like water wipes for how sensitive and gentle they are on my baby boy, we tried both pampers sensitive wipes and Huggies wipes , they’d irritate him . Parasol and Huggies skin essentials diapers ! 🫶

Aldi for nappies or Fred and flow (Tesco own) and i like the boots own wet wipes.

Amazon own brand sensitive wipes - couldn’t find nothing better 🙌

Sainsbury’s little ones nappies were my fav but they stop at size 6 so then switched to lidls.
Love water wipes but they are expensive Amazon and Lidl are great too x

I get mama bear wipes off Amazon as it’s bulk and much cheaper that way. Nappies I just use whichever supermarket I’m in I haven’t had any issues with my daughter yet. Mamia from Lidl is good for size 1&2 and the cost!

Aldi - Mamia nappies and wipes have been great for us.

Night time feeds taking over a hour

What am I doing wrong 😭 every time my girl wakes up it takes me about a hour to feed and get her back to sleep. I breast feed untill calm then nappy change, give half breast milk in a bottle , burp then rest of bottle then she falls asleep and then frantically moves and does a poo. Then I change nappy and she’s screaming..then I give breast to calm then hold her for 15-20 mins to settle before putting down then pump and before you know it it’s been 1-2 hrs and then half way due the next feed 😭😭 (happens like this or some variant of this)

since she was born husband first feeds while I pump but he’s back to work now and needs sleep as operates vehicle and is on a work site.

I sometimes just BF but when I do this she falls asleep too soon and sleep is far more broken for me. After 5/6AM I just BF and have her in bed with me

When to stop Co-sleep

My baby is currently 7weeks old and I don't know when to start training her to sleep on her own. I love sleeping with her and she sleeps so good with me or my husband but I know at some point she needs to be in her crib. When did you guys start putting your babies to sleep on their own and what tips do you have to help a clingy baby sleep alone?

Engorged boobs

Hi I am post birth & it’s day one of engorged boobs due to me not breast feeding . Is there any way to make myself more comfortable? It is radiating pain so much & they’re rock solid . Any advice please?

How to give calpol

Got my baby’s jabs on Thursday, might be a stupid question but how do you give them the calpol?

Worried about husband's mental health

My husband has been giving me attitude/tone recently and I had a serious conversation with him tonight. He broke down and told me he's not happy and it's been hard for him to act normally because of this. He's not happy with life, feels very down, and just wants to "quit everything". Doesn't want to wake up in the mornings. I've done a lot of therapy over the years and am in a good spot mentally now, but I'm really worried for him. I encouraged him to find a therapist or talk to a doctor, and let him know I'm going to continue checking in to make sure he has a plan to get some help. He kept saying he feels like a burden and I tried to reassure him that he isn't.

I'm looking for any helpful tips or encouragement. I want to treat him with empathy and kindness, while also making sure he gets the help he needs because I don't think he's okay.
