Bitting and nipping

Is anyone else struggling with their little one bitting and nippinh them, he is nearly 14 months old. Breastfeed baby and will bite/nip while feeding as well as during the day. He doesn't have to be tired either. I am getting to breaking point because I lost my dad on Christmas eve and also in the last week have had a pregnancy loss. It wasn't a planned pregnancy but had just come round to the idea of having 2 under 2 when it happened as well. So everything all together is just becoming too much all at once. Honestly just need some reassurance that I'm not the only one struggling with bitting and nipping and if there is any advice on what you have done that has worked

10 month old, thinks its hilarious.

Ive had some success with picking him up and moving him a couple metres away whilst firmly saying no. Then going back to where I was an ignoring him. He then comes straight back to try again of course, but I just repeat repete repete till his gives up. I also try diverting attention with something else like a teether, being mindful to not appear to reward the behaviour

So you think babies are smarter with?

I had a first time dad say babies that's breastfed have a 3% iq higher than a baby that's being formula feed. I told him it don't matter if they are breastfeed or formula feed it depends on the parents if they are teaching them and sI ending time with them vs just putting them in front of a tv or tablets. He said I sound stupid.

Relactation

Has anyone started their breastfeeding/pumping journey again after a very long break of dry. I haven’t breastfed or pumped for 3 months and I’m thinking about restarting. I just pumped and got a small amount of colostrum out but I don’t know if I’ll ever get a supply back.

Experience with not circumcising

Hi!
Having my baby boy any day now. My first is a girl and in a way that felt easier for the sake of feeling like I know what comes with being a girl. Me and my partner decided not to circumcise our son but everyone I know has been circumcised or circumcised their sons. I understand why people do circumcise it but it’s not something I’m comfortable with and don’t want to for the sake of “everyone else does it”.

Can anyone give me advice or tips or what to expect with not circumcising their sons? Feeling lost and anxious over it.

TIA!

Nappies or pull ups?

Are you supposed to change from nappies to pull ups when they start walking? I’m still using nappies

Does your baby wake up

I have a 4 month old when he is sleeping dad and I will start having sex. Since the baby was born he will wake up almost every time. He’s usually a hard sleeper.
Is this normal? If this happens to you is your baby a boy or girl?

Hey mommas

For my anxiety ridden, overthinking mamas….. how do y’all function? Like I’m serious. Idk if there’s a medicine I can take to relax or just pray it out of me…idk…..but I notice EVERYTHING. Every smirk, every loss of eye contact, every text that i may be interpreting wrong… all of it. Overthink and just become filled with anxiety. My simple interactions turn into “why did they say it like that?” Or “they must be thinking badly of me or they don’t really like me.”

I knew it was bad this morning when I asked daycare if they need anything else for the grad party tomorrow. The response was kinda strange to me so I assumed she must not really want me to come and that maybe I should buy something else today to give to make things better. Like ………………….
