Stopping breastfeeding

Anyone got any tips for stopping breastfeeding when my baby only takes max 2oz from a bottle, feeds to sleep and co-sleeps 😭😭 it’s starting to take a toll on me mentally, I’m so grateful I could manage nearly 6 months and provide so much comfort to her but I’m so ready to be done now!!

Dummy

Hi. My 4 week old hasn’t took to a dummy at all since birth. She will suck it for a few seconds then spit it out. She suffers with reflux and is on medication for it and I’ve been told offering a dummy can help with the reflux but I can’t get her to take it! Any tips?

9 week, sleep pattern

My baby had his last bottle at 10:45 and slept till 6:30am. Is this too long?

I understand they naturally wake up to reduce SIDS. All research is conflicting, one post will say babies this age sleep between 6-8 hours and others state they should be waking up for feeds and going no longer than 4 hours?

He has regained his birth weight and continuously gaining weight and having enough nappies.

He does have enough calories in the day also.

Just Mentally tired.

Hi everyone just looking to vent new mum with ppd . I live with my husband but he's not really supportive financially or with our child. Im starting to be resentful towards him and other family members.l haven't had a day off since i was pregnant i do everything buy myself. I have my parents and they work so not much support there as well. I have spoken to my friends and some other family members about my situation. I keep getting told it will end give it time. Im trying to be as strong as i can for myself and my child. Sometimes im made to feel like terrible mum which I already think I am because of the ppd. Sometimes I don't feel like getting out of bed , clean , eat ,talk . Husband doesn't help with the house chores as well. I am mentally , emotionally and physically tired. im always LONELY always. I get judged about the postpartum depression that I have , i didn't choose it.
Right now im at a family members house i don't know if that's the best choice or not. Being here it's not helping because no one helps me as much.
I had started going to work but that's also putting a mental strain on my body. Parents don't like to babysit. If i ask husband it's pointless as well.

I want to move out but I have no income support.
What do I do

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?

FTM help with sleep changes

Hi all,

FTM here, my girl turned 4 months on Thursday - for the last 2-3 weeks her sleep has changed.

Since she was just over 2 months she has been a great sleeper at night with no concerns at all.

The last 2-3 weeks she is still going to bed at same time and wake up at same time but during the night she keeps starting to wake and makes like, starting to cry noises - sometimes she settles herself after a few seconds and sometimes I have to go get up and give her, her dummy ( she has a dummy to go sleep)
Then she settles again till the next time she does this again.

Normally she is still asleep while doing this
She has also become a very lite sleeper - my partner ended up sleeping in the living room last night as he kept coughing and it was waking her.

During the day she is fine, no concerns at all.

I was told sleep cycles can change at this age and this is normal

But I just wondered if anyone else has had similar experiences?

If your child hand HFM, when did you go out?

The gp said I can continue as normal with no need to quarantine but this seems strange to me.
