12 week jabs…

My little boy has his 12 week jabs yesterday morning and today he’s been really grumpy but he’s straining sooo much as if he’s desperate to go for a poo and then screaming when he can’t. Has anyone else had this? He’s usually really regular but nothing still….

My little girl was the same. And with 16 week jabs too. The day after her jabs she’s super clingy, moody and strains almost like she’s struggling to go.
Blow out is coming 😂 xx

My daughter had her 12 weeks last Tuesday and she reacted exactly the same with it. Our nurse that administered them said she will react worse than the first ones. They believe it's the rotavirus drops that causes it from what she mentioned. She's better this week but she still strains a bit to poo

Ah that’s reassuring to know he’s not alone! It’s horrible isn’t it, he’s literally straining so much I think he’s about to pop 😭😂 but then nothing and he gets SO annoyed - hopefully tomorrow will be better 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 😴

Colic

I am a first time mum. My baby is a month old, and is having uncomfortable movements and cries a lot during evening hours. And make faces while passing wind.Any suggestions how to deal with colic pain??

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

Tooth extraction

I am having a wisdom tooth extraction next week, I will be sedated and the procedure will take about an hour and a half. I have a four month old and I’m exclusively breastfeeding. In the consent form it says I shouldn’t breastfeed for eight hours and I should pump and dump.

I was wondering if any of you had a tooth extraction with sedation and are breastfeeding?

Can you tell me if you had to wait with breastfeeding? If not was the baby okay?

A lot of places say that I don’t have to wait and I can breastfeed as soon as I feel well enough. I have pumped some milk and kept it in the freezer, but I’m not sure if it’s enough and I don’t know if the baby will take the bottle.

Washing and raining

If your clothes are out on the line and get wet from the rain. Do you rewash them? I’m not talking a little wet, say you went out and it poured down. But then you left on the line and they half dried again.

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
