Room temperature

My room is 31 and my daughter's is 30 so not an option. I have put him to bed in a nappy and a cold muzzy over him dunno what else to do worried he will overheat.

Any advice on what you're doing? Thankyou!

Our room is 33 and my toddlers is 34 🫠 no amount of fans make any difference. The general advice is don't have a fan on baby. However, the way a fan works is it cools people, not rooms, by moving air across the body. We've had a fan on us and baby the last two nights because it's too hot. It's the only way to keep him and us semi cool or comfortable. It has kept baby feeling comfortable and not at all clammy. His chest is a nice warm and his arms and legs a comfortably cool.

I'd say try it. The temperature is far hotter than any of the "guidelines" are written for. Xx

My room is 29 and I’ve had to put baby in a vest as he keeps waking up due to just being in a nappy and unsticking to me once being transferred into his next to me, fan is rotating and I’ve had to open the windows to try circulate some air around as outside is cooler than my room. He seems to be a good temp in his vest and seems a lot more comfortable, I’m sat here praying for Friday as it’s meant to cool down where I am by Friday so my fingers are crossed extremely tight 😂

Best size 4 nappies?

We currently use nutmeg size 3, but concerned about the size 4s being ultra absorbant/different to what we're used to and the price is a bit much with the sie increase. Any idea if they're any good or any recommendations for other nappy brands

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

Nursery sleep

Let me start by saying, overall really happy with our sons nursery and I provide very rough guidelines for his sleep (I’m aware at nursery, everything goes out of the window) but they don’t seem to listen even when I give instructions in the morning, and were really suffering from a mucked up day, early wakes, ratty evenings. They’ll sometimes put him down 20 mins before he’s picked up (some days he does half days so they know he’s collected at 1) then wake him up fully so he doesn’t go back down with us. Today, they’re closing early (informed us gone 6pm last night) and I asked to try a short nap this morning so we have a chance of him getting another this afternoon, he’s been asleep for over an hour and a half, so he’s not likely to go back down and will have been awake since 11am, despite me sending a message saying to wake him.

Does anyone else call/message during the day to give instructions re sleep? I don’t want to be that nightmare parent but it’s all so frustrating.
