Feeding timings

How long is everyone’s little one going between feeds? My 6 week old is feeding every 2 hours during the day but can go 3-4 hours during the night!

I have a 7 week old and he is feeding between every 30 mins to 2 hours in the day😂 but then does up to a 6 hour first stretch of sleep at night followed by another 3-4 hour stretch!

Baby is 7 weeks today. During the day it's between 1-3 hours and overnight it's between 2-5 hours. Very variable lol xx

5am day starts

My 7 week old seems to wake for the day from 5am unless i put him in the sling he will then go sleep.

Will this eventually change and settle into a normal time if maybe 6/7am?

I have a 2yr old as well so praying this will change because my days are becoming sooo long. My toddler happily sleeps till 7/8am usually 😴

Am I crazy?

We sent a list of boundaries & expectations (rules lmao) to my in-laws before the baby comes. The last one was if the baby is fussy or needs to be changed or fed, then hand them to me, De Mama. My MIL said it was “odd” that we would ask for the baby to come to me and not her son, and then she asked why me. My husband told her because I’ll be around the baby the most and it makes the most sense. I said because I’ve held that baby for 10 months and I want them. I know it’s none of her business WHY we implement rules for our home and I know I shouldn’t care because it’s MY home and MY baby but help an anxious, 32-days-left girly out. Am I nuts? Is this an unreasonable rule?

Does anyone regret having more children at 40 or above

Just had 4 th baby at 40 . We have 7 kids between my partner and I. But I'd love to have a little girl. My joints are so sore this time round from being pregnant. Just don't know how my body would cope.. we would have to start soon though as the clock is ticking.. we lost a few before our little man came along.. what would you do

Reccos for breastfeeding tops / bras

Hi all, slowly getting my head round what works to breastfeed in public but would love some more help

Looking for supportive tops with in built bra support for slightly larger ladies (DD+) that you can wear without a breastfeeding bra and just yoik it up!

Also looking for a good strapless bra you can feed in by easily pulling down? And along with that any good feeding bras in general!

And any reccos for how to feed in a dress discretely! Thanks so much

4 month sleep regression

Baby is approaching 20 weeks now. We’ve been in the sleep regression stage for 4 WEEKS😭😭 it’s not getting any better. I’m running on empty I’m exhausted and upset all of the time. I feel like everyone else suffers for a week or two and I’m 4 weeks in what can I do? So many false starts, sleeping no longer than 2 hour stretches and she used to do 8-9. So so hard to settle even when fed I’m at my wits end😥
