Naps

How many naps is everyones 7 month old having and how long are they? Worried my LO naps are too long😬

My LOs naps vary so much, but I’m just going with the flow as she’s such a FOMO baby. I aim for between 2.5-3 hours a day, but as long as she’s had 90 minutes then I don’t stress too much. Also your LO may be a high sleep need baby and need more sleep, so as long as you’re happy and getting enough sleep overnight, I wouldn’t worry too much 😊😊

My little boy has had some massive naps today I’m worried about tonight 😂 he did 9-11.45am and then went down at 2.30 and still down! he is learning to crawl so I wonder if that’s tiring him out. Hopefully I’m not in for a long night 👀 x

Maybe two, maybe three, depends on the day really 🤣 the longest is normally about an hour and half, but she still adjusting to not contact napping during the day so if be lucky if I get more than 30 minutes sometimes 😭

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
