Breastfeeding

Did any moms have troubles with milk supply after their c-section? I feel like my little one eats so much but I’m not producing enough. He was 3 weeks early and spent his first 8 days in the NICU, so I wasn’t able to latch him right away. Any tips and tricks on helping your milk supply??

NAPPY/DIAPER PREFERENCE

So I’ve been trying out different nappies to find the best for baby girl. With my eldest daughter I used pampers and they were rubbish so I didn’t bother with them and switched to Aldi nappies and only used Aldi nappies with my son. Huggies are a no go for me.

So far number 3 (rascals) have been working the best for baby girl with number 4 in close second.

Which nappies if any of these have you found the best for your LOs?

1. Tesco (Fred and Flo)
2. Asda (Little Angels)
3. Most supermarkets (Rascals)
4. Aldi (Mamia)

If you have any other suggestions for other brands please feel free to drop a comment 🩷

Help settle this not serious debate between my husband and me

This is for kids old enough to play in the bath.
Do you wash your kids first then fill up the bath so they can play?
OR
Do you fill up the bath, let them play then drain and wash?

Feeling like utter crap

When will this end? I feel terrible. Overweight, biggest I've ever been in my life, unsexy, barely get a chance to shower most days, make up is non existent, hair is suffering. Clothes awful. Mood low majority of the time what I do is just a distraction for how awful I feel inside. I am deeply grateful for my children, but I just can't seem to get it together energy wise. My youngest is 5 months.

Burping a newborn

Does anyone have any tips for burping a newborn. My baby is 2 weeks old and breastfed, and I've been really struggling to get any good burps out of him.

I know that breastfed babies generally have less gas, but sometimes he does the little gassy smile or scrunches his knees up & no matter what I try I can't get a burp out of him. He's also very fussy and wriggly when I get him into any burping position.

I just wanted to come on here real quick to show something I wrote. Since my son was born I had been struggling with maintaining a friendship with someone I considered my bestfriend. I wasn’t the one struggling though, she was. When my son was born I stopped hearing from her, even after during my pregnancy she swore she would be here for me and would be my sons “fav auntie”… Well he is almost 9 months old and the only time I have been asked to hangout is when she needed a pregnancy test and she knew I had extra. Me having a child suddenly made my bestfriend lose interest in the friendship. I’ve expressed to her so many times how I felt and i guess it just doesnt matter because to her I’m no longer friend material because i am a mom. So i wrote this as my final cry for help from her and she said absolutely nothing to it. That ultimately made me cut her off completely.

What’s a good one to get? I don’t have IPad money so a good alternative please.
