Breastfeeding

I’m currently 6 weeks and 4 days postpartum with my second. I am currently EBF which in term of milk supply and latch is going well. I struggled a lot with my first and was excited to BF my second. I am now 6 weeks in an feel like I’m not enjoying it as much as I should/thought to the point I want to stop/combi feed. However even when I think about giving her a bottle i feel super guilty and feel like I should BF instead. I also get very paranoid as to whether she is getting enough milk and constantly checking the heaviness of her nappies etc. My head is a little bit of a mess about whether to continue as it’s going better then with my first but also not enjoying it but struggling to even think about giving it up HELP. Like I want to stop but don’t want to stop

Rockit

Does anyone recommend a rockit or a similar brand? Are they worth it? Does it make a difference to your LOs naps?

Telling people ur pregnant

I don’t really know how to feel tbh I just told my mum that I’m pregnant and she said that Iv ruined her whole week and that’s she’s not happy for me and that she feels bad for my son ,I don’t see why she feels bad for my son he has everything he wants and more he’s the happiest toddler ever and I think he will love having a sibling so he’s always got someone to play with

Gerber

Bought these whilst in Tenerife (I bought 3 packs)
Just wondering if anyone knows if I can get anything like these in England? My baby boy is obsessed with them!

Jabs in this heat?

Baby is due her final set of jabs tomorrow morning, but I'm wondering whether to postpone them to next week because of the heat. I think they're less likely to have a fever with the final lot. Anyone else in this situation? It's a half hour walk to the GP as well as I don't drive 😭

Baby only contact naps

Hey, I am a FTM and have a 10 week old little girl. I really struggle with getting her to settle in a Moses or a crib during the day. She won’t stay down for more than a few minutes to 20 minutes maximum. I have tried putting her down drowsy but not awake and I’ve tried when she is in a deep sleep and also tried every way possible to help her settle. Now I absolutely love the contact naps but would like some time in the day for me! Anyone else struggling with this?

Comforting a breastfed baby

I'm finding the only way I can soothe my 3 week old baby is by putting her on the boob! Others can rock/sway her and shes off to sleep no problem but she doesn't settle with me like this. I don't think she's clusterfeeding and she is full because she tends to bring up whatever she drinks during these comfort feeds. Any advice or is this just life with a breastfed baby? 🫠
