AITA

Should I be mad that my husband sleeps all day long…? He works 4pm-12am but doesn’t go to bed till around 2:30am… then he sleeps until 2-3pm… he misses almost all of the day with his 2 year old child and I’m currently pregnant with baby #2… idk if it’s pregnancy hormones but it just makes me so irritated and depressed because he literally misses out on everything…

Late work can be hard. I struggled to get to sleep before 1/2am when I was getting home at 11.30pm. I needed the time to wind down and feel like I wasn't just going to work then going to sleep. That said, he shouldn't need to sleep for 12 hours so something isn't quite right. Have you spoken to him about it? If he's not willing to change I'd absolutely be mad. It's one thing sleeping that late when you're just living life for you but he's got responsibilities now, kids that want/need to see him and a wife who deserves support. He can't just go on as if no-one depends on him. If it was mine I'd suggest he takes a blood test to see if there's something actually causing the low energy because I know he always does his best, obviously I don't know yours to know if he's just taking the piss or not but even if he is it might give him the boot up the ass he needs....

Changing newborn a second time post feed?

(Formula fed baby) - Our newborn is usually changed and then fed in the middle of the night but recently as they’re drinking more, they tend to then need changing a second time post feed as we can hear them 💩 half way through. We’ve found changing them the second time then stops them going down after the feed. Is there anything we can do to help them go down after? What do others doing in this case? Would you feed more?

Bras!

Hey all, I’m in my first trimester (almost 10
Weeks) with my first pregnancy and my boobs have been so painful and every day they feel heavier. I am still currently wearing my usual bra and bra size but at what point do you change bra sizes? And how do you know how big they need to be? Do you have to get new bras every few months?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you 🥰

9 week old

My LO had very pee in night yesterday. Otherwise it’s like 2-3 wet diapers at night. But yesterday it was one diaper with very small blue line.
Has anyone else experienced this?
Does their wee reduce at night?

8 week vaccines

Anyone else feel like they have a different baby after 8 week jabs? He had a temp and was fine the following day but since then we have had a week of him looking grumpy and screaming crying because he’s fighting sleep during the day. But sleeps fine at night 🙈 wondering it’s it’s just a phase or related to his jabs.

Wake windows

How long are your LO’s wake windows? My 4 week old can be awake 2-3 hours at a time which seems a bit long to me, my first borns’ wake windows were up to an hour at this age

Wake up time

What time do your kids wake up? I’m a SAHM and I can get my daughter (15mo) to bed by 9:30 and she still can sleep 12hrs!
Most the time though it’s by 10:30, mainly due to her nap runs late. I only ask because I see things like this and get soo sad on what our schedule has us miss out on..
Even if she woke up at 8am we still got breakfast and getting ready which take us about an hr and a half on a bad day.

I’m not looking for advice on how to change anything. I just want to know if any toddlers are actually up that early 🤣😭
