Chunky thigh baby mamas (&papa's)

My 4 week old LO has a juicy pair of thighs, any nappies or clothes around thighs are leaving a red imprint

Nappy size is not ready to size up yet as would be way too baggy, only just sized up to size 2 (using pampers as got loads on offer)

And tips or advice?have seen someone mentioned putting nappy cream / petroleum jelly on the thighs as barrier from rubbing

If the nappies are leaving marks it’s time to size up (fella thick thigh mama).

You also may need to experiment with different brands x

Marks are not a problem if they don't look sore and fade once the nappy is taken off. Like sock marks when you take yours off at the end of the day!

Could I have (accidentally) harmed her?

I’m panicking. I just moved from EBF to formula three weeks ago (baby is 6 months) and I use a Tommy tippee prep machine to help making the bottles. Because of sleep deprivation, I must have set the settings of the prep machine all wrong, because I’ve only just clocked that I’ve been giving her 7 scoops of formula but 8 oz of water. It’s meant to be 7 scoops for 7 oz, so I’ve essentially been giving her overly diluted bottles for three weeks now. How severe is this? Do you think these three weeks could have harmed her? Do I need to take her to see a doctor urgently? She seems to be doing well and seems to be her normal happy self, but I want to make sure I haven’t done something terribly wrong for her health. (Please be nice, I didn’t do this on purpose, my baby wakes up every hour these days so I’m very sleep deprived and brains not working)

Car seat

I know the car seat I want, but I don’t have the money to afford it at this moment. Anybody know how I can get a car seat that is safe and the one I want for a good offer?

Any thoughts on prams? We have looked at and tried out so many. From Nuna to Bugaboo to whatever other ridiculous name there is but would love to hear what anyone’s experience has been like 🫶 xxx

How do I stop my toddler from turning on the lights when he wakes up?

I put him to bed an hour ago and he has come out of it and turned on the lights and tried to leave the room approaching 10 times now.
How do I stop this?

I don’t know why today is different
