Advice please! Baby won’t stop breastfeeding …

My 8 week old baby won’t stop breastfeeding he has CMPA and reflux so unable to bottle feed as we can’t seem to get a milk he agrees with but he literally wants to feed 24/7. Always hungry and always wanting to be on the boob. What can I do ? I feel like I have no life as we can’t do anything or go anywhere without him wanting feeding.

This sounds like baby is cluster feeding. It’s tough but it doesn’t last forever it will pass. Baby is increasing your milk supply to meet demand for upcoming growth spurts x

What time is your baby sleeping?

I felt guilty today when our health visitor said we should aim for baby to have night time routine completed and in bed by 7pm. It just feels way too early, my baby does not settle until much later. I wanted to find out how other parents are doing ?

My 10 week old daughter won’t sleep

Hi! So my daughter is refusing sleep and we have tried everything possible, currently 3 am and she’s been awake since 11 pm, I’ve fed her, changed her nappy, took her for a walk and even read her stories but nothing seems to be helping and it is so overwhelming, I’ve just started my period too so it’s really hard to rock her and hold her as I suffer with severe period pains and bleeding, I just feel like the worst mom for not being able to help her sleep.

Anyone got any tips on how to get my 14 month old to sleep past half 5?🙈 he goes bed every night between 7-7:30 and will have 2x 1 hour naps throughout the day.

30 degree room!

Our flat hit 30 degrees in the night, it’s still 29 now at 7am. This makes me incredibly anxious for my baby. Does anyone have any tips to help cool baby?? We have one oscillating fan.

Baby Feeding

Hi Mums,
Gave birth to my first by c sec 3 weeks ago and tonight he went from 7pm- 1am without having a feed we are now at 5am and he still hasn’t woke up. When I’ve cried and told my partner that this just doesn’t seem right whilst he’s asleep he legit just thinks our boy is fine and has gone back to sleep it’s like he almost cares more about getting loads of sleep over our sons wellbeing and my initiative!! Has this happened to anyone else where they’re going long stretches just seems odd especially in the heat (bottle fed)

Advice with teaching One year Old

Hi my daughter is 18months. Today she went to the pediatrician and her pediatrician told me that she behind on her motor skill and verbal skills. I felt devastated by it and want to know how can I teach her words. I’m a busy mom I take care of the house and cook dinner and sometimes it can be rough to keep everything in check. If anyone has any suggestion on how I can communicate with my one year old correctly would be appreciated.
