10 months regression/development leap?

My little one has always been a great night sleeper. Since 9 months something shifted and she started waking at 5am. I was working on reshuffling to help her sleep her full hours.

However she turned 10 months last week and it has been horrendous. She has been crying through the night, I’ve given calpol and ibuprofen incase she’s got aching teeth. She has brought out 3 teeth over a few weeks and looks like another 3 are coming out together too. She is also learning to crawl.

This is horrendous, the worst development leap/regression ever. I feel like her sleep routine will majorly take a hit 😭

4th Baby ?

I had my 3rd baby last autumn and he has been my chillest by far, I love the dynamic of 3 but i can't shift the feeling of i don't want him to be my last. No one around me has gone to 3 let alone 4. I know its a whole new level once they are on the move, those who have had larger families did the dynamics change majorly with a 4th ?

Baby went underwater

Tonight I asked my husband if he would rather change the sheets on the bed, or give our 8 week old baby a bath. He chose the bath (which I normally do). I was a little nervous as he had never bathed him alone before (just watched me do it), but trusted they’d be fine. 4 minutes into the bath I hear my baby screaming upstairs. I was immediately worried since he loves his baths. I ran upstairs and my husband is holding him horizontal and smacking his back. He said he slipped in his tub and went underwater. I know it was an accident, but I’m honestly furious. It was a no-soap night, so it was just water, but obvs dirty water. We clean him well during diaper changes, but this boy poops a LOT. And I know when my husband changes him he’s not as thorough as me.

I’m worried about a few things;

1. Water in his lungs (and secondary drowning due to aspiration)
2. Bacterial infection from ingesting dirty bath water
3. Ear infection

Should I take him to the emergency room?

If this has ever happened to you please comment with your experience and if your baby was ok.

7 months not crawling

My 7 month old will sit unsupported and stand with support but won’t crawl she looks like she wants to but she just can’t do it she gets frustrated and cries because of it any tips or tricks🫶🏻🩷

Lost my spark

Just been having a cry to my husband about how I’m feeling at the moment. Some holiday pictures from a few years ago popped up and I was looking good let me tell you! And now I look at myself and I just want to cry? I’ve really ruined myself and that’s not even from having a baby, it was even before that. I put a lot on when I was pregnant but have managed to lose that weight but now I’m just stuck feeling huge and gross. When I look at the old photos I just looked a certain type of different, not only about 5 stone lighter but just happier in general. I feel sad, I feel huge and I feel like I’m crap at calorie counting even though I know that’s the best way to ugh rant over. I’m off to go cry some more

Vinted

Has anyone ever been scammed by vinted ?? I ordered my daughter 6 pairs of pj's from a seller on there they were mark very good when they arrived they were only fit for the bin holey and stretched I have sent them back and awaiting a refund until it arrives my daughter has been left with 1 pair of pj's !!

No idea why my baby cries

Most of the time I have no idea why my 7 week old baby cries. Her hungry cry is obvious (very loud and persistent), and if it’s not hunger then I always check her nappy. If nappy is clean then I assume she’s tired and will try to put her to sleep. It feels like such a guessing game each time, and I’m just winging it completely. She is breastfed so I basically offer her the boob when I can’t seem to comfort her (to be fair, the boob usually works).

I thought by 7 weeks I should have developed a better understanding of her needs/likes/dislikes, or how she likes to be held/comforted etc. I feel a bit inadequate as a mum (and putting her on the boob all the time feels like a cheat?!) It also means my husband can’t really help.

Does this make sense, and does anyone else feel the same?
