Does anyone have a newborn they can put down for a nap and will stay asleep longer than 30 mins?

has anyone got any good products to use when cleaning an infant car seat?

I brought these for my one year old to get her off the bottles she was on

I did a lot of research on them, and a few people recommended them for her age

Just wanted to see what mums thought on here about them before I start using them

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

Burning candles?

I know we shouldn’t because it’s not good for adults but especially babies but I miss burning a candle in the evening and we have a rented house that smells musty no matter how much we deep clean everything and air out the house for hours everyday. Does anyone burn a soy candle downstairs in the evening with windows being open whilst baby is upstairs asleep or do you think it’s too much of a risk? Any advice /opinions would be greatly appreciated (my baby is 9 months btw)

Baths

When do you start to bath your baby everyday? Mine is 7 weeks old

Postpartum isn’t so friendly

When did yall start working on shaping/toning body after birth? And what helped? I have PPD baaaad and looking at my body isn’t the most lovely view to me right now ): I think making mom friends and going on walks would do me wonders compared to sitting inside with her alone 96% of the time..
