Heat wave and tv

Please tell me I’m not the only one! Since the start of heat wave my baby has been constantly whingy and whiny (understandably!) but she doesn’t stop. She normally has an hour or so through the day here and there of tv (low stimulation programs) but since the heat wave I feel the only thing that distracts her it’s tv! Doesn’t matter if it’s me watching my shoes or hers she just seems to forget about being hot if that makes sense?? Anyone else?

Would you rather…

Have a 1.2 year old sleep 12 hour stretches every night BUT they wake up halfway through for milk

Or

Have them sleep the first half but cry and have restless sleep the second half waking every hour til morning

Cause I’m told they don’t need nighttime feeds. But he sure wants it haha and possibly needs it? He just sleeps so good when I do give him milk. But it is both sides nursing and I’m supposed to be weaning 🫠

Help EBF

Has anyone else had the same issue ?
My nearly 4 week old pretty much chokes/coughs and splutters when on the boob and because of that she’s taking in loads of air which makes her gassy and uncomfortable no matter how long I burp her for, I have a fast flow so I’ve tried pumping before but because I’m only 4 weeks I’m scared of causing myself a over supply as I already wake up super engorged and leaking EVERYWHERE , she’s also been throwing up a lot like after every feed then she wants to go on again and won’t settle because she’s thrown up

Explosive diarrhea and vomiting

My 3 month old girl has had watery explosive yellow diarrhea for 24 hours now and vomiting up a lot of her feeds. She is still normal and smiling and awake but worried about diarrhea since she’s so young. Has anyone experienced this and what did you do? It’s heatwave too so could be making it worse.

Montessori bed or cot?

Hi,
I am moving in a few months and need to plan my babies room. He would be 7 and a half months and I wonder if we should get him a cot or a Montessori floor bed? I like the idea of him crawling in and out as he pleases but not sure if you girls have had any experience with them?
Thank you
