Recently posted this but nothings changing and we need help! Almost 3 weeks now my 13 month old has not been sleeping at night. 2/2:30 wakes up crying and will not settle no matter what we try. It’s taking hours for him to give in. When we go in he settles but as soon as we leave he cries. One occasion I swapped him into a warmer tog sleeping bag and we got a one off night of sleep. We’ve tried offering a bottle which he’s downed but that’s made no help. We literally do not know what to do😫 He’s resisting daytime sleep and I do think he is on the cusp of dropping a second nap. Currently 5am and we’ve been awake since 2:30😭 it’s having a big toll on my husband and I especially given we are up early for work in the week. He’s always been a good sleeper and slept through from newborn. Has anyone got any suggestions, tips etc please? I honestly can’t carry on like this much longer

Always hit back?

What do you to tell your little ones to do if someone hits/pushes them?
My daughter started nursery-school last September and at the beginning I was very "no never ever hit" but now im "if they hit you, you hit back"
Ive said if someone hits/pushes you shout stop very loudly and if they do it again you hit/push back.
I've noticed some very pushy children in her group and my daughter is shy so I dont want her seen as an easy target!

Intimacy after becoming first time parents

Our daughter is 2 months old and being intimate has been hard. We are only able to have sex like twice a week cause we're always so busy with the baby. When we finally have time I'm paranoid about the baby being in the other room. We try to make it quick because we're worried she'll wake up. I can't have her in the room with us because I just can't get into it if she's there in her crib or awake. How do you moms deal with this ?

Help.

Does anyone else’s 1-year-old toddler bang their head repeatedly on walls or anything else every day, self-smack, or sometimes grab your hands or use your knees to bang their own head? He also hand flaps. Could this be linked to autism?

What would you do in this situation

I have a 1 week and 5 day old she is formula fed and she is currently 7 pound 8 and she was drinking a hole 4oz bottle she has been since day 7 but now after the bottle she will settle for a little bit and then scream for ages I have decided to up it to 5oz today and now she goes straight to sleep I’m worried I am over feeding her but she seems to be fine on the aptamil box for her weight and age she should only be drink 2-3 oz but she is not satisfied…..

Would you be weirded out?

If it matters my mother and I are not close physically or emotionally. My whole pregnancy she’s been a bit weird about boundaries, but recently she’s been saying she goes around “talking to the baby” we live hours apart so it’s not as in to my belly, like she’s just talking out loud. She expressed disappointment that my husband is the one that goes with me to appointments not her, and that he’s the one there when I have my c section. She’s also told her work that as soon as I have my c section she’ll be leaving work and coming here, despite us saying she’s not to come to the hospital and that we’ll let her know when we’re having visitors. I’ve told her I don’t want her to stay with us but she keeps saying she’s ’forgotten’. She’s also saying she will come over every week on the same day. This is especially strange given I’ve seen her once in the past almost year and has even had huge blow ups at me over text for saying we weren’t having a baby shower, to the point she called me disgusting and despicable and threatened no contact. I feel viscerally uncomfortable. It also doesn’t help she talks about having alone time with the baby when she’s ‘allowed’ and how she’ll teach the baby things I don’t want and “what happens on grandma’s time stays on grandma’s time”. I can’t tell if I’m overreacting
