Sleeping difficulties

I have a one year old boy. Breastfed since birth, loves solids. He has had the habit of sleeping while breastfeeding.

Lately, I have difficulty helping him fall ssleep.

His first nap is fine.
The second one is always so hard and the one for bedtime sometimes. His awake windows were 3/4/4. But sometimes the last 2 can go up to 5 or 6. However, my husband usually is successful on putting him to bed. But me? Unless he's extremely tired he fights so much - like I'm the fun parent.

He does sleep through the night now. Tonight he did fall asleep in the breast, but is sound asleep.

Anyone going through the same or have gone through this?

8 Week Old Fussiness

I understand she’s at the peak of crying phase but I’m at the end of my checklist of things to do to calm her down.
Plus in the heat she’s working herself up and making herself even warmer.
I’ve tried baths, bottles, dummies, skin-to-skin, the works and nothing helps.
Any advice would be amazing!

Mothers of older kids (4/5++?)

Does it get easier? Like be fr 😭

NO ONE told me it was going to be hard having 1 kid…literally no one. My mum had 5, both my parents never and still don’t work so they never stressed about juggling work & childcare. In fact no one around me worked/works other than my partner & his family. So literally I heard nothing about “oh you’re going to struggle, oh it’s going to be hard, what are you going to do about nursery etc etc” 😭🤣 they fed me a DREAM! Don’t get me wrong I love love love my son, love being a mum…but the tantrums, the phases, the mood swings, alllllll the emotions plus housework….pleaseeee send help haha.

Is anyone else going through this?

My MIL and her whole family are in a gc and I’m in it and everyday she talks about how much my baby looks like her son, everyday. She either sends pics of him as a baby along with pics of my baby or she’ll just text it, nobody on my side of the family says she looks like me either, I’ve tried explaining to her dad how much it gets underneath my skin that I get 0 credit for literally anything, he gets the “oh you’re doing so great you’re such a great dad” and I get nothing even though I’m the one who takes care of her full time 7 days a week, I know I shouldn’t let it bother me but It’s hard because I do so much and I don’t get seen at all
