What’s your routine

My girl is nearly 4 months
I want to start a better routine day and night !

At night time she has her bath last bottle then bed but time is different everyday.

We do the same throughout the day just naps once the ques start. If I need to get stuff done I will put him down in his cot to nap if not he will contact nap.

We recently changed his bedtime and its fingers crossed made a massive difference in him! He usually just went to bed at the same time as us 9/10 and was waking up once for a feed through the night. Now he has last bottle in bed at 7 and asleep by 7:30pm straight through to 7am! He has a bath every other night but we do the same routine, pjs on - sleep sack on - bottle in bed - then put in next to me xx

I dont know if ours is better, is what works for us..i also have a 4yo so we try to balance.
-7am wake up, play, boob
-9-10am nap
-play,out, boob
-12-1pm nap
-play, out, boob
-3-4pm nap
-play, bath, boob
-6om bedtime

We cosleep, I babywear and contact nap. Exclusively breastfeeding too. With my first I did everything how they all suggested and it was soooo difficult. Now, we are parenting without a village, plus a toddler, so Ive decided to do whatever is easier. It is working for us. A plus, daily youtube tabata for kids to have everyone happy. Is silly but a lot of fun. Depression cant hit a moving target

Advise on 3 month olds movements

Hey guys I need some advise is this normal behaviour for my 3 month old? She does this quite often, mainly in the day time. She frails her hands around a lot. I have no idea why she does that but she seems to be doing it more often than before. Please ignore the blanket it’s the only way we can keep her dummy in otherwise it will just keep falling out her mouth.

Injections

My baby had his injections on Friday and since then he has been feeding less at night, he used to take a 120ml bottle no problem but now during the night he only takes about 80, he drinks 120 in the day per feed but it does take longer than it used to, should I be worried? He’s having wet nappies no problem.

Toddler suddenly scared of room and waking during the night

My little girl will be 3 in July and suddenly night times have become an absolute battle. I can get her to go to sleep okay, however, for a week now she has woken up in the middle of the night absolutely screaming saying that it’s scary and refusing to go back to sleep without me staying in her room with her (which is not comfortable at 34 weeks pregnant on a make shift floor bed out of sofa cushions!) has anyone else’s little one gone through the same thing and does anyone have any tips on what stopped the night wakes for them?

How is everyone survivigg ?

Mum of 2 . New born and toddler who does not go nursery full time. Partners gone back to work and I'm dreading having them alone with no sleep 😩. I am currently functioning on 2 hrs of sleep and have a toddler to get up tomorrow. Any advice please 😅

Hitting😢

How are we teaching our one year olds not to hit? My son just turned a year old on May 26th and he’s recently been hitting anytime he gets upset. I’ve tried telling him no, saying ow, removing him from me for a few minutes, nothing is helping😒😒

Please suggest something im running out of ideas!

Anyone else have an almost 3 month old that screams harshly for hours? Causes ruled out are colic and reflux. Doctor says infant dyschezia but symptoms do not happen during/before bowel movements and she passes stool without trying most of the time? Not sure if asking these things are allowed but im so stumped i dont know what to do. Thank you in advance.
