Glasses question?

For mamas with glasses or littles with glasses, my 6 year old was told he needed glasses, we got them, and at his second optometrist appointment they said we needed to start patching his weaker eye for an hour a day. But my question now that we are doing that he says he can't see out of the eye while wearing his glasses, that everything is very blurry? With the glasses?

Travel Pushchair - first time flying

We are off on holiday tomorrow (flying TUI) and since purchasing our travel pushchair (which was cabin approved size) now seems just outside their size guidance and likely will be gate checked.

Questions;
Do you get the pushchair back at the gate when you land or have to wait until you get to the luggage carousel?

Anyone’s experience with TUI and how strict they are on size?

We also haven’t got a cover/bag for it should it be checked.. rookie error for this first time mum 😫

HELP ME

I didn’t sleep AT ALL last night and I’m still yet to go to bed and it’s basically 6am how in the fuck do I get this kid to shut the fuck up and close his eyes. No he’s not sick no he’s not teething he’s just being a fucking cunt I am at my limit, I cannot safely pick him up anymore unless I get some sleep, I cannot cook use an oven or anything safely so he’s gonna starve! He’s literally killing himself by not letting me sleep i am literally halicinating how do I make him close his eyes

Night feeds/settling back to sleep

At night it’s taking 1hr+ to BF baby, change nappy and get him successfully transferred back into his next to me asleep… he’s then waking up an hour later for milk again. This has been happening for the last 4 weeks and I’m exhausted 😟 anyone any tips?

Baby has changed… help 😫

Hey all,

Baby girl is 6 weeks old, 7 on Saturday. In the last 3 days, she’s done a complete 180 on us and has changed up, which I know is expected, but I am STRUGGLING.

She was always happy to sleep in her next to me at night, during the day she only wants contact naps, and that’s fine - I can compromise there, and I mainly want her in the crib at night for her own safety - I’d love nothing more to snuggle at night, but that’s just not safe and it’s the only time me and my partner can be together… we had a little routine, she’d have her bottle at around 7pm, would be changed and then would settle on my chest whilst we watched TV, then at around 10pm I’d take her to her bed, either me or dad would put her in the next to me and we’d all sleep until 2am when she would feed.

In the last 3 days, that has changed. She has her 7pm feed, then cries and fusses a lot.. this goes on until 9.30/10pm. She eventually falls asleep - lullaby, white noise, red light, dark room, being held and rocked, eventually this all works.. but then she refuses to sleep in her next to me.

Dad stays awake holding her until 2am, attempting transfers in between to no avail. Then I take over. She sleeps in our bed next to me fine.. the minute I try transfer her,… nope!

I don’t know what to do… I know there probably isn’t much I can do… I just wanna know if others have experienced this, does it get better? Any tips?

Longer stretch of sleep

Appreciate I am a paranoid mum but up until now my baby (6 weeks tomorrow) has generally woken up every three hours or so to feed but tonight he has slept for 6 hours and even then I had to wake him to feed as I felt like he has slept for too long. Is this too long to be letting a 6 week old sleep without feeding?
