Hi ladies, I'm currently 5 months pregnant, 32G, and growing.. does anyone have any recommendations for comfortable but supportive bras that don't cost as much as my mortgage 🤦🏼‍♀️

Bravissimo… I just went and was resized for a nice nursing bra and they were so helpful!!!

Primark has some really good ones

I got measured for free at marks and Spencer's! Perfect measuring and only £10 for one nursing bra and its the most comfortable I have ever felt in a bra yet!

Celeste d'or are lovely! X

I got mine from primark, it very comfortable

100% the M&S Jasmine Lace Non Wired Maternity Nursing Bra, they actually do cup sizes instead of just S/M/L/XL so great for us girls with bigger boobs. Plus only £10 so a proper bargain and not too bad a price if you need to get a bigger size later on in your pregnancy 🥰 Would recommend going in to the shop to try them on as I went up a couple of cup sizes when pregnant

So fed up

Baby only contact naps in a dark room. I'm so over it.

Why can't it be one or the other.
Nap in the dark OR contact nap.
Its not right, it's not healthy.

He's nearly 4 months and I've tried a few times to get him out if this habit but it never sticks!

I don't want this anymore. I dread EVERY nap. I love him and love being a mum during wake windows but when nap time rolls around I find myself regretting being a mum and I feel terrible for it, but I can't do this anymore hours on end in the dark every day for months on end. 😭😭😭

Second hand baby stuff

I am curious what everyone thinks on second hand baby stuff like, car seat, push chair, cot etc. babies grow very fast, they grow out many things in just few months and kinda feel like it is a waste of money and not good for the environment. And also think as first time mum he/she is going to be my only child so I should get whatever is the best. On a dilemma 🤷‍♀️

4m sleep regression...

I think we might have hit it. How is everyone else surviving!? Is it too early to sleep train!?

Is it really that bad with a toddler and newborn?

Some of the posts on here are worrying me, I have so much anxiety anyway.

I have a toddler and a newborn that will be arriving this week. I’m terrified I won’t cope and it’ll send me into psychosis and depression again 😢

Bottles

I know that when they are 1 they will be swapping gradually to cows milk instead of formula but how do we do that?
Currently he has 4 bottles a day
1 x 240ml and 3 x 300ml
He typically drinks around 1000ml a day
Along with food twice a day but he doesn’t typically actually eat this food, more just chomps it and throws it around.
Obviously his 1st birthday is coming up and I have no idea what to do, I think I’ve been a bit naive and not really planned the transition over very well, will he still be having 4 bottles a day but just cows milk instead when he’s 1? And keep up with the food, how do I know when to drop a bottle? How do we just know these things?! 😟

How much do I actually need to buy?

First time mum, due in September and trying to not over spend. What is everyone’s opinions on how much you actually need to buy. I’m thinking along the lines of baby grows, how many will I actually need? And any other items which you’ve found you end up buying more of for no reason.
Thank you!!
