Force yourself to eat and continue to take prenatals

It absolutely does get easier but you must look after yourself. Eat nutritious food, plus lots of treats.
Your hormones have crashed and will start to stabilise in the next few weeks and you will feel less intense. 🙏

If it’s that bad maybe see your GP or mention to midwife/health visitor and have some bloods completed. I was similar and it was because my iron had drastically dropped and I had to go back to hospital for two infusions a few weeks PP.

Why do some parwnt wean their babies before 6 months?

Just genuinely curious, no hate. I just don't understand.

Like there's a mum in my babies group posting about wanting to start giving her 3 month old purees?

I had my friend round the other day and she was all "are you going to bother waiting until 6 months?"

I just thought it was standard to wait until baby could sit up straight etc?

I know there are some people that start at 4 months, but I never really understood why? Is there medical reasons? Or any other benefit to weaning earlier? Also how do you feed a 4 month old if they can't sit steadily in a high chair?

Aubrey

Decided on the name Aubrey for my girl but a lot of people keep telling me that ‘Aubrey’ is the boy way of spelling the name.
What way would you spell it if you were having a girl? UK based❤️

If you haven't slept through the night, how do you make it through your day

Does coffee help? Anything else that might help to just carry on?
