So so so aggressive

After just 6 hours sleep usually I’m woken by my child ripping my hair out hard, smacking me kicking me. A firm no then she has a melt down for hours kicking biting smacking
She does this all day long
All day she goes for my hair hurts me and others too she’ll just go for them like a wild animal!
I’m so fed up and EXTREMELY OVERSTIMULATED being attacked all day YES she’s 2 but I have literal bruises from her she reallly is strong

Gro egg

So ofc I was doomscrolling instead of sleeping, did you know you can dim your tommee tippee gro egg?! 🤣

I honestly can’t even with not knowing this 🤣 I’ve really struggled to sleep with it illuminating the entire bedroom and now it’s dimmed down I’m finding it strange 🫠

Epidural

Hey all! I had my little girl 10 weeks ago. I ended up having the epidural after already having a long labour, I was exhausted in the end, I made a decision to have it.
I am still having a bad lower back and some numbness in my left knee. Has any else experienced this.

Maybe doesn’t help, I had emergency forceps delivery, so I had to be numbed on top of the epidural I was pumping into myself also.

Please don’t think I’m crazy

Not technically a poll but I need answers and this is the biggest group. My friend and I are debating back and forth about our babies’ ages. My daughter was born January 12th. Today is exactly 24 weeks. Which would be the equivalent to 6 months. But she said no. June 12th is 5 months. January 12th to June 12th. Her baby was born May 28th. She said she’s a month old yesterday. I said no.. she’s a month and 4 days old. Now I feel like we don’t even know how old our fricken kids are lmfao. Someone explain how they do this?

Perineal tear recovery 🙏

I gave birth a week ago and had two tears - one episiotomy and one ✨ spontaneous ✨ tear. It’s still very sensitive and sore, especially when I’ve sat for a long time or go for a wee. If you had a tear, when did it start feeling better? I feel like the first couple of days weren’t even that bad. Maybe it’s because the stitches are starting to dissolve now? Idk

It doesn’t feel infected or anything like that but today I went for a wee and it literally made me cry from the sting 🥲

I have a peri bottle and do all of the right things in terms of keeping the area clean etc.

Eating soap

Is anyone else experiencing their lo loving to eat soap? Whenever we put soap on her, whether that be in the bath or washing her hands off, she always tries to eat it. Is there an underlying reason to this maybe?
