How many poos a day?

My baby is nearly 8-weeks old and is combination fed, but mainly BF (1-2 bottles of formula a day). Baby seems to now only poop twice a day - is this normal?

My baby is breastfed and goes every 3 days. I was told it's normal as their digestive system matures x

There’s a wide range of normal and it depends on the baby. My son is different every day. Some days he goes once or not at all some days it can be 3/4 + times. My eldest use to go every 2ish hours.

Want to give up on breastfeeding

Please give me some encouragement to keep going 😭 I love feeding my baby at breast I love bonding with him, but lately it has been a nightmare. As we are approaching week 4 he has started to have trouble. He will latch initially, then when I burp him halfway through he will not go back on my breast. (I burp him hallway through because he gets gassy.) Even with the breast literally in his mouth he is still screaming and giving hunger cues and I don’t know what to do!! I know it is probably trapped gas but even after he burps and spits up some he still does this. But he doesn’t do this when we bottle feed him. I’m torn between trying to push through or just switching to pumping 😭

Touching babies face/hands

I’m currently 10 weeks postpartum and really struggling with knowing what boundaries to have in place for my baby. Originally my rules were no one visited if they had a cold, absolutely no kissing and also no touching his face or hands. These are still what I want as my rules but people are naturally beginning to touch his face and hands without thinking. It doesn’t help that he’s recently discovered his hands so constantly wants to put them in his mouth. I know everyone has their own boundaries and there’s no right or wrong but I’m beginning to feel I’m possibly being a bit over the top? Is it unreasonable to ask this of people?

2025 March 23rd baby joy!! 🥹

My baby girl is 1 yr-3 month and still isn’t talking. She rolls also, but no walking yet. She can stand if I hold her hands, while pushing her strength up with her legs. Are these things normal?? Also I know I’m biased lol but she’s so cute 🙂‍↕️ thanks for listening x

Tonies 2

My lb is turning one in june i was thinking of getting him a tonies 2 box as i saw that it was advertised for 1+ instead of tonies 1 ...is it worth it considering the price and the fact that he still puts stuff in his mouth and drops things to see what happens 🤣 its quite pricey i dont want to buy it just so it becomes a decor or a ball.
he also was never interested in me reading him books ..not sure if it's relevant but id love to hear your opinions.

12month sleep regression.. help 😭

My daughter (12months) the past week is waking up after 45mins from getting her to sleep on a night time and is awake for 4/5hours until she is sleepy again. We are awake till 12/1am and to say I’m tired is an understatement 😩😩
Her routine didn’t change to cause this and I’m wondering if anyone else has gone through this, is it a behaviour thing or developmental phase as I have her from when I awake till her falling asleep at 1 in the morning.. help is very much needed.
You can tell it’s not pain as she’s super happy and wants to play.. worried it’s going to be a habit now
Any help or suggestions would be great
Thanks girlies 🤍
