Sleep!

Looking for some advice / seeing if anyone else is going through the same

I have a 18 week old that for the last 3 weeks has been stirring through the night from about 3 am till he wakes up. He’s waking crying for his dummy I put it back in then he takes it out and this goes on for 4-5 hours

Quickies! When?! How?! 🤦🏽‍♀️

Would you/ do you ever have a quickie while baby is awake but safely near by and occupied? Like for example they are in bouncer happily playing and you and hubby have quickie on couch? Discreetly obviously! Or do you only when baby is asleep?

We co sleep and contact nap, so when trying to put her down in bassinet asleep to get a quickie in she keeps waking up! But idk I feel is it weird if she’s in room but awake? Again safely and happily occupied, and not making it obvious.

Stepdaughter sent over without underwear

She’s 9 . We went shopping for her and she asked me to check the size of the shorts she had on, I noticed she wasn’t wearing any underwear. As a bio mom to my own little girl, this is concerning to me. Am I thinking too much into it?

I’ve purchased for her underwear and training bras (which she wasn’t wearing either) she said her mom didn’t wash laundry so she didn’t have any.

Baby sleep/napping

Our 5 week olds sleeping just weird. When she wakes up in the morning she will be awake for hours (7am-11isham) and then sleep for about 2 hours, feed, then go straight back to sleep for another 2 hours. Then once she’s up early evening, she literally stays awake for hours. As I’m writing this she’s been awake from about 4.15pm and it’s now 9.20pm and is wide awake. Our first slept a lot more than this and had the shorter wake windows you would expect.

Is anyone else experiencing something similar? It’s very strange

2 month old fussing at the boob in the evenings

My 2 month old daughter started out being purely just breast fed, but when she was 3 weeks old her weight wasn’t increasing enough so they told me to give formula as a top up. I’ve literally been strict as to 1 bottle of formula a day and the rest just breastfed but come the evenings she is so fussy at the boob and pulls off a lot then cries… I’m scared she’s getting to used to a bottle! Is anyone else in this situation? Is it because I’m not producing enough? 😭

Nursery

I dont know if this is a silly Q but in nursery I dont understand how they get all the little ones to nap?? (Under one) like... dont most babies get rocked to sleep? There's not enough hands for that.. are they all just over tired and pass out?? I dont get it

Owlet Sock

Does anyone here use the Owlet sock? I got it, but my little one got really annoyed when we first tried putting it on her, and now at 15 days old, I haven’t really re-attempted to put it on her.
