Struggling to latch properly

My baby is 9 days only and she is still really struggling to latch. I watch all the TikTok’s and look up all the things and I can’t help but feel like I’m doing something wrong, also, often once she is on and takes some milk, she pulls herself off too fast but she is still hungry.

Nap location during the day

Where do people put their baby to sleep during the day?

She’s outgrowing her Moses basket at 16 weeks, and think she hates sleeping in anything she can touch the sides of.

Any ideas other than her pram? She wakes in that too because of the sides.

Has anyone ever faked a pass ouy or death?

I usually do different emergency things that could happen with my kids and yesterday I only had my 2yo son and 3yo daughter i pretend to have fainted (im 36 weeks pregnant) My daughter was on her device so she really didn't pay me any mind but my 2yo kept calling me and opening my eye lid thats when my 3yo came over looked at me and said "mom can you put this code in?" Lmao 🤣 do I need something more realistic or something for her?

Sleep

Why won’t my baby sleep past 5:00am!!😩 he’s 4 months old and I think we are right in the sleep regression but he hasn’t really gone past 5:00/5:30 ever! His bedtime is normally 7:30, but this doesn’t matter as if we are out and come home a bit later he still wakes up at the crack of dawn!! Anyone the same?

Nursery settling in days/ Naps

What are we doing about settling days that clash with baby’s nap ? I have 3 settling in days in August, first one is 1h , and the other two are 2h, they all start at a time where baby would go down for a nap which is between 9-10am but they can still change by the time they come so not sure what to do? Any advice please? TIA!

Dramatic?

Hate even talking about this but I am a FTM really struggling. I cry most days and was recently diagnosed with PPD. My partner knows this as I am open and honest with him. He has been so supportive and helps with everything regarding me and baby. However, yesterday I saw that on his Instagram he was looking at videos of half naked girls. I’m honestly so upset and I know it’s not really “wrong” but feeling the lowest I have ever felt and postpartum and knowing that’s what he was looking at really hurt me. Am I being dramatic?
