Eating?

How many ounces are your babies eating right now how often and like how much did they weigh my baby girl was a 9lb baby and my pediatrician says her eating habits are fine but my baby girl seems like she is almost ready for 6oz… she drinks 5oz of milk every 2 maybe 3 hours and sometimes cries for more when he bottle runs out lol just curious to see how much your little ones are eating

my baby is 11lb & is eating about 5oz i’ve been putting 6 in a bottle . sometimes she drinks it but sometimes she just wants that half and ounce . i’m an over provider so whatever she doesn’t drink i use it for a bath .

My baby is 8 weeks and is drowning 2-4oz now. 16oz total today. Last weight in she was 8lbs for her 1 month, I'll find out next week how much she's grown at her next check up for her 2 month.

Mine is 6 weeks and drinks 4-6 oz every 2-3 hrs. He was alittle over 8lbs at his last check up, weighed him the other day and he is about 11 lbs now

Mines is 10 weeks she's drinking about 5oz now her weight at birth was 6lbs 15oz and at her 2 month checkup she was 11lbs 6oz she won't be weighed again until her 4 month checkup

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

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.

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.

How to get baby back to sleep?

She used to feed to sleep and I used to be able to just put the baby on my chest and she'd fall asleep. Now she will wake up from the bottle and will claw and fight as if she's doing tummy time. The tricky part is she must be upright after feeds because of her reflux so I can't really be moving her about. I can't keep doing this fight at 3am waiting for her to wear herself out to sleep. We've tried white noise rich she doesn't respond to. Swaddles stopped working after 2 months (she's 3 months now).

Any advice??

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.

Sleeping position

Anyone else’s baby sleep like this? He can roll back to front but not the other way round but every time I put him to sleep on his back he always ends up like this. I hardly sleep because I’m forever turning him back over or listening to see if he’s breathing. He literally fidgets all night now too
