My four week old didn't sleep at all the night before last! I think it was the heat so we camped out downstairs last night where it's a bit cooler. Hope she sleeps soon!

Hi yeah my little mans 3 weeks and hes the same been fighting his sleep all day today he was awake 3+hours i would say its the heat we're in total darkness and 2 fans on the go in hopes that'll help

We've got a long night ahead of us 😴

Mine only naps on me... 😭😅

My 3 week old has been the same for the last few days. Fighting her naps for hours only falls to sleep on the boob and we’re both super sweaty

My 6 week old barely slept last night, has been squirming around during her naps and will only fall asleep on the breast or during a contact nap which is not ideal because we are both boiling 😩

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

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

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.
