Leaving babies while awake

Looking for some reassurance that others do this and I'm not just an awful mum 😅

Baby is safe in their next to me looking quite content - I am watching on the camera having a bath... but can't bring myself to relax because I feel bad they're awake...
Any other mamas need a little me time?
Obviously any sign of upset and I'd be straight out!

How long are you sterilising bottles?

I did it for the full year as advised with my son but I also find it a little pointless after weaning starts?😅 I’m not sterilising every spoon, plate, cup, bowl etc and didn’t with my son either🤷🏼‍♀️

4 month regression

Anyone else going through the 4 month regression?
I’m struggling so much with it. She was just being affected in the day with naps but now it’s affecting her night time sleep too 😭😅

Sleeping help!

My 6 month old is now too big for her next to me, it’s tilting with her weight and she is not sleeping well due to this but is still not ready fully for her cot, she has had the odd nap successfully but that is hit and miss? 🤷🏻‍♀️
