7 week old not napping in day

Someone else please tell me you’re having the same troubles!! He used to sleep 2-3 hour stretches in the day and recently it’s been like 20 minutes but he won’t settle for more than that from getting up at 8am till around 3/4pm! I try everything he fights it so much!

I had the same with our daughter, she's 9 weeks now and she does some longer stretches in the day and then is awake from later afternoon until her bedtime, it does get better but she does still fight the sleep but dpes eventually go down x

nearly 7 week old and he's only napped for a total of two hours today in short 10 - 20 min bursts. and only falling asleep during feeding, as soon as he's put in his bassinet he wakes. trying to enjoy the cuddles but...yikes!

Eyebrows

My little girl has quite thick eyebrows. I’ve googled it and ended up down a rabbit hole. Has anyone else’s little one got similar eyebrows?

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

Why do toddlers hit!?

When you're feeling pretty low and lonely as a stay at home mum anyway and then you pick up your toddler and he smacks you Square in the face!
I couldn't help but let out a "what the fuck!?" And put him straight down on the floor and told him NO hitting....
He's 20 months. I'm really struggling :(
I'm in such a low point as it is

FML this morning!!

All I want to do is leave the fucking house! My 4 year old isn't listening to a word I'm saying it literally goes over her head, my 11 day old is screaming for milk but I'm trying to make a lunchbox and pack a bag.
My partner didn't come to bed til 4.30am so he's still asleep and he sleeps like a log! I managed to do a school run for my boy this morning but this one just seems impossible 🤦🏼‍♀️ she's meant to be there at 10 and it takes 20 mins on the bus..it's now 9.58 🤦🏼‍♀️

Give me fucking strength today please 😩

Early wakes

Hello! So baby girl goes to sleep about 7pm every night. We safely bed share and I'm still exclusively breast feeding. She will only feed to sleep which I am okay with. I am just exhausted with the 5-6am start of the day! It used to be 7-7:30 wake up which was alot better! Any idea how I can push this later? I realise that feeding her probably isn't helping when she wakes up, but throughout the night this puts her back to sleep! Any ideas??

What time do your babies start their day?

What time do your babies start their day? And when is bed time? Mine goes to bed around 8pm but starts his day at around 6am. Wakes up plenty of times in between but thinking should it be more like 6-6 or 8-8? I have a toddler that gets up 5:30-6 so then I can’t go and resettle my baby once he gets up. The days I can, he cries and fights his sleep?!
