3mo teething advice

I know I’ve been blessed having my LO sleep through the night already. Within the last week he’s been waking up at least twice in the middle of the night to feed, which hasn’t been normal for awhile now..definitely getting enough milk throughout the day. I am a strict pumper so I am able to track feeding precisely. Through the day he’s also been much more fussy, I’m not sure if he’s beginning his teething journey or if it’s a growth spurt? He’s been drooling a lot, and constantly has a hand in mouth. I’m just tired and want to make sure he’s comfortable and back to his happy self.
Anything you did in the beginning stages of teething to make both you and baby more at ease?

It’s a leap / learning surroundings. This is the age they start discovering things with their mouth. You’re also probably coming up to the 4 month sleep regression x

Ashton and parson powder to ease their gums if you think it’s teething. They do discover their hands at this stage too x

Not a lot you can do. They're teething on and off for the next year.

Get some good teethers.

Teething rollers work wonders for my kid and can be used from 3months. Ashton and Parsons teething powder and fridge teethers. I have hand teethers aswell as he cant hold things properly yet, a bit like gloves and stops his hands from getting alot of slobber on them. But its good to alternate with things as its good for him to figure out his hands and fingers
A hundred or so bibs for the drool, we go through so many in the day
It could be teething, could be sleep regression. You should be able to feel if his gums are hard with your finger if you're unsure

Nobody warned me about this part of having two kids 😭

Not the no sleep. not the chaos. the part where your toddler keeps hurting the baby and you don't know what to say in that exact moment. I have tried everything. I sat with it alone for months. what finally changed it was nothing I had read anywhere 😭 anyone else been through this?

High chair recommendations

Any high chair recommendations? I was planning to buy “silver cross eat & play” Anyone used it? Also seeing so many good reviews about the Ikea one.

Too much milk?

My 3.5 month old daughter is draining an 8oz bottle (she's exclusively formula fed), but is sleeping a good 10 hours a night so missing a feed. Is this excessive? What are your similar aged babies feeding?
She is following her growth chart for weight perfectly, but the health visitor said we should have her on 6oz and wake her at night. She was on 7oz but crying because she was hungry so we went to 8oz a few days ago but she is still crying once the milk is finished.
Is it a problem to go up to 9oz if she's showing signs she wants more? I feel awful thinking she is still hungry

One year old with diarrhoea

Anyone know what could help with diarrhoea? It’s definitely diarrhoea bc the poor boy woke up through the night upset, so I popped him next to me to sleep and I literally heard him poop, I checked and obviously changed him. Last night I didn’t realise at it wasn’t a lot or smelly and he got really sore on his bottom and balls 😞

We have started fresh milk but I boil it for him, idk my mum says that’s better? But he still has formula here and there, I’m not sure what to do pls help a mama out. Thank you in advance 💕

Husband snoring with newborn in the room

My baby is 5 weeks old. My husband has been snoring recently, not loud and not all the time, but just randomly he'll start snoring and it's just loud enough to startle baby and fully wakes her sometimes. I keep gently rolling him back over to his side but even on his side he'll snore sometimes. It also keeps me awake as I'm a light sleeper and have major anxiety atm so struggling to sleep as it is..
Is there anything he can do to help the snoring?
There isn't anywhere else for him to sleep, we don't have a spare room and the couch isn't comfortable for sleeping either

First time mom planning mode

Is anyone else already thinking about milestone tracking and early development stuff? I went down a Montessori & STEM research hole and built an easy-to-use tool for myself I’d love to share if it’s helpful.
