Can you please share current routines? (I know they will be loose)

I am just wanting to understand what an evening looks like and amount of time little one sleeps.

Do they have a large wake window before their final night feed? Or just same as the day waking every couple hours for a feed?

I do all my kids tea around half 5 then I let them chill and relax then at half 6 they are showered and in there bedrooms with the TV on for half hour my autistic boy sleeps with the white noise on. And my 8 week old will have a bath in bedtime bath soap and at 9:30pm then dressed and 10pm will have a bottle and will sleep till 4am another bottle then sleep till 7am xxx

He tends to nap around 7 for 45 mins which works well while we all eat dinner and then will go to bed anywhere between 9 and 10ish sometimes a little later. Sometimes he cluster feeds before bed, sometimes he doesn’t but it doesn’t seem to make any difference to sleep.

He does a 3 hour stretch initially max then wakes every 1-2 hours where he’ll just feed back to sleep. The last 3/4 days he’s woke at 5am like it’s party time 🙃 We only bath once a week x

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?

They CAN do both, js.

My husband always makes an effort to involve bubs when playing. 😂🫶🏻 even when he’s trying to steal the controller from him.

Let down during adult time

Tonight during sexy time my husband brought me to orgasm and i had a let down and started leaking everywhere. I’m 5 months pp and we’ve been together ten years, married six and i was still so embarrassed. 😞 My husband was very sweet about it but did not want to finish for himself. Has this ever happened to you!? What did your partner do/say?

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 ?

Pretends to be a baby with me only?

Why does my 2.5 year old son pretend he is a baby when I see him? Like he would be crawling to me, wanting me to hold him like a baby etc

I have a 2.8 year old and a 3 week old and wow, I never realised I was going to find it this hard. I did nothing but cry for the first 2 weeks because I felt guilty on my first and missed our little routine together. He’s been absolutely amazing with his little brother. But it’s me finding it hard, struggling to adapt, I forgot how intense the newborn phase is and I obviously love him lots, but please tell me it gets better? And please share your experience with this age gap
