Never a second from Baby 💔🥹

Hey everyone 💫💗

I find that I’m constantly with my 10week old constantly. She’s feeding on demand and find when breastfeeding and trying to get the wind up I’m unable to get enough out for her to settle down for the 2-3hrs ☹️💔 not to mention I’m sleep deprived running on crumbs. As we speak it’s 4am she’s just had some milk and she fell asleep and didn’t burp. I have 0 friends mind you and feel absolutely helpless and lonely. I’m going through PPD as well unfortunately which sucks.

Thanks for the advice in advance 💗💗

if you're struggling with your milk supply I drank mother's milk tea and it helped a lot. the main ingredients are fennel and fenugreek and its really tasty. ❤️ here for support.

Breastfed babies don’t need to be burped as much as formula babies. My little boy only does one, maybe two burps after a feed, sometimes none at all. During the night I very rarely burp him. If he’s fallen asleep and seems comfy I just leave him.
He’s 12 weeks now but was also up every 90m-2hrs not too long ago, I think because he was having a growth spurt, but seems to have settled now and is doing longer stretches again.
Hopefully it’s just a phase, hang in there!

You got this momma if u feel your baby not getting enough it's ok to use formula with breast milk. If u want help with breastfeeding I swear lactation browning any on Pinterest helps an so does coconut water blended with frozen fruits
Be careful with anything that has fenugreek in it as it may worse your supply or help it did worse for me.
Be proud for how long you last each day is a milestone

Latching when breastfeeding

Hi girls, I am a first time mum to my 2 week old and I’m trying my hardest to exclusively breastfeed but she doesn’t latch properly all the time. I know she can get a good latch as we have achieved it previously however most times she will not latch and it will hurt me. My other issue is that she will not latch with a bottle either when I offer one! Any advice or tips to help with latching would be so appreciated xxx

Is It Okay If My Husband Give My Niece a Bath?

I am going to Maryland to get my niece from my sister for a Month. But my Husband is going to watch my son and My niece while I’m working during the week. And my mom will have both kids on the weekends. I was thinking is it Okay to let my Husband bathe my Niece if I am unable to? I feel like it’s Okay but I Feel like it’s not only because that’s not his Blood. He give my son a Bath (That’s his Stepfather who is technically his father because he raised him). I apologize in advance if I made it sound weird 🤦🏽‍♀️. I just don’t want to Do the wrong thing.

I DONT LOVE YOU

My 4.5 year old has been saying this when she doesnt get her own way.
Its been going on a few months, ive no idea where shes got it from.
Ive tried ignoring it and tried explaining its hurtful and she still does it.
When I sit her down at times and say its hurtful she gets upset and says sorry but then does it again a few hours/day later.
She says it to me, her dad, my mum -all closest people.
She will shout "i dont love them" to me about someone she isnt close to that upsets her/annoys her.
Her dad really struggles with it and shouted at her yesterday as it really upsets him and he struggles with his emotions, ive told him shes 4 and she's doesnt mean it but he takes it very personal.
Has anyone got advice on this?

Hated baths and nappy changes

Every single nappy change despite offering toys and distractions, my lo screams as if he is being brutally tortured and twists his body so much we are terrified he’ll get hurt. Just turned 1 and he has never kicked off like this before. Now despite always loving his baths these seem to be a dislike too. I have just tried to bath him and as soon as he was in the water he went into screaming hysteria and caused himself to hyperventilate. Honestly never seen him in such a bad state and I’ve wanted to cry with him. Any ideas what could be behind these changes and anything we can do? He had toys in the bath tonight which didn’t help or work

Screaming every night

My baby is 5 weeks old and for the last 2 weeks the evenings have been terrible. It gets to 6pm and he becomes so fussy and frantic. He’s really difficult to feed because he’s constantly crying. Nothing seems to work. We make sure his nappy is clean, try to burp him, try taking him for walks and offer the breast regularly but nothing works. He’s a completely different baby in the day, really happy and not grizzly at all. Is this just a phase? Is this normal for a 5 week old?
Any tips are very welcome!
