Has anyone used one of these?

A coworker suggested one of these for our flight this weekend to Canada. Was wondering if anyone used one and if it was useful or not. Do airlines allow anything like this??

My baby boy is 5 weeks old and since we have been home from the hospital (4 weeks) I have been exclusively breastfeeding. I was told I had to give him formula in the hospital as they wanted to track exactly how much milk he was receiving and I had to write down every feed, and how much baby was taking. Baby was weighed yesterday and he’s gained on average 20g a day when it should be 25-35g per day so on the lower end and now I’m worried my baby isn’t getting enough. Should I pump and give him a bottle too? Any experience or advice please? Xx

Tandem prams?

Going to have 2 under 2 so I need a new pram! I’m thinking a tandem pram anyone have any recommendations that are decent prices, still can’t fathom we’re buying a whole new pram🥲 also one that isn’t too long in the front and can easily fit on public transport buggy spaces.

I really like the cybex gazelle (quite pricey) or the joie versiti any other recommendations tried and tested?

Has anyone skipped bottles?

So done with EBF baby won’t take a bottle, been trying over 2 months and still a no go! Breastfeeding ruining my mental health now and just feel trapped. Has anyone introduce cup feeding at 5.5months? I don’t know how it would work at night feeds etc. any help would be greatly appreciated!

Emotionally drained

I don't understand why my daughter is so evil and negative 24/7 unless she is begging for something. That's the only time she smiles and is happy for a second. Im literally literally so tired of it. I don't want her around me anymore. I've been crying all day because I genuinely don't know what to do with or for her anymore.. I just need someone to talk to, other than the ones that knows me or her. Because they just don't get it or understand it. They brush it off and I'm literally drained with her.
