Baby hasnt pooped!!

He is 10 days old and have been breastfeeding but topping up with bottles as were having problems with our latch sometimes and i felt he wasnt getting enough.

He hasnt been for a poop in over 24 hours and yesterday there was 22 hours in between.

Is this common experience for anyone else ?

Bed time in this heatwave

So my little girl usually has her regular naps during the day she only had 20 minutes for her second one and now she’s absolutly exhausted at 5:30. Trying to keep her awake is proving difficult and she’s becoming agitated because she’s tired. I’m worried if I let her sleep too early she’s going to be up during the night? Any suggestions? Her wake window had now passed 4 hours

Cold milk in heatwave

I'm exclusively pumping and feeding my 11 week old via bottle. I'm wondering whether to heat up his milk before every feed, or in this heatwave I should keep it slightly cooler?

Room is between 26-27

Im a new mum Im am abouslty scared of having the risk of sids with a room temp this high in our bed room this is where lo stays in his net to me crib. Hes only 6 and half weeks old and he is just in his nappy xx

How do I end contact naps (not altogether) But at least one transfer to the moses throughout the day!? Need help!

As much as I love comforting my baby girl, she will only nap if she's being held (contact naps) all day, every day. But then night time, she will be transferred to her crib and will sleep through the night.. It really does baffle me!!

Has anyone managed to gently transition their little one to more independent sleep? I can’t get nothing done throughout each day, even the smallest of things! As much as I love bonding through contact naps, one transfer would be so good too!

Would love tips or encouragement from anyone who’s been through this! I feel like I’ve tried about everything, dark room, deep sleep, in the pram.. you’ll probably name it and I’ve tried it 😪…

I don’t want to be made to feel guilty for wanting some time without LO on my chest, I feel people that’ll say ‘enjoy it’ When experiencing it, it can be very tough, lonely and sometimes frustrating!
Of course I enjoy it and of course I will miss it when they no longer happen!!

Mosses basket

What are babies sleeping in downstairs once they’ve outgrown their mosses basket?

We have a next to me upstairs. But i don’t think she’ll be in her mosses basket downstairs for much longer!

Any recommendations for what to use instead? We also have an 18 month old, so needs to be toddler proof 😅 (and not another next to me)

27c bedroom - will baby be ok in this?

FTM here and my baby is 3 months old. Our bedroom is 27c in this awful heatwave, I currently have him in his nappy and 0.5 tog sleep bag (one of the transitional ones with arms) - will he be ok in this? I’ve unzipped the sleeping bag and he has an oscillating fan on which is reaching his next to me every so often
