Routine

Is my baby meant to be in a routine by now?

She usually sleeps 7pm-5am but I feel like is this too big a gap?

I have tried pushing naps about but she gets besides her overtired.

My girl sleeps 8-5/6 some nights and wakes up at 3/4 other days for a bottle then wakes back up at 7/8, every baby is different x

My little girl sleeps 8pm to 8am, she doesn't have a lot of naps in the day maybe 5-10mins 5 times a day but we are completely led by what she wants and her cues, the only routine we have is bath and bedtime I. E bath at around 7pm followed by getting dressed listening to white noise and reading a story and a top up feed before she goes to sleep.

Don’t fix what’s not broken and enjoy the sleep

Don't get too attached to the schedule - 4 month regression just hit for us and I wish I'd not got used to long sleep 🤣

Before the 4 month regression and babies sleep cycles maturing I wouldn’t bother with routines just follow your babies lead x

Nappies

Hi girlies, wondering what nappies are decent these days (preferably own brands). I fell in love with Tesco nappies but they’ve now changed the design and they’re so thin and the tabs are super stretchy which makes the tongues come out. Also tried Aldi nappies (they’re alright in younger sizes but find older sizes leak LOADS) and Asda (despised how thin they were). Any people recommend!

Nappies

Super random. But has anybody used nappies like this before, I was gifted them for my baby shower and threw the packaging away & I love them! But I can't find the brand of the nappies to buy more 😭😭

Question

We have a joie car seat and an icandy pram. But I have just seen a Donna 2 in 1 car seat and stroller. Does anyone have one?

Combo feeding

So… I’ve just had a conversation with my mum about combo feeding when baby comes I.E. breast feeding from the evening through to the morning and then day time feeds being formula, I’m thinking this as as much as it sounds silly I don’t feel comfortable with breastfeeding in public, my mum has shot this right down and told me I’m being stupid and should strictly breastfeed even when I’ve voiced how I feel, what do you guys think? Am I being silly and overthinking the whole breastfeeding in public

Infant dyschezia how do I treat it???

My 4 week old went to the gp as he was constantly unsettled and squirming they gave infant gaviscon but I found it more of just a relief for him than an actual solution….he has also tried Infacol….and has been told he probably has reflux…. But I find he struggles to pass stools and fart even after all exercising techniques???? Anything I can do else to help I’m settle again instead of constantly straining….

Mental health

Since baby has been born I've had this adrenaline spike and it's just continued. Idk how to explain it other than I'm just running at 150% all the time? I walk really fast, my minds going really fast, I'm super quick with my hands. I can change a nappy in less than 10 seconds.

I've been like this since baby has been born. I thought it'd go away but it's continued.

I'm really efficient at everything but it's starting to take it's toll and I'm really scared that I'm going to "crash". I become like a robot and forget my feelings it's like I'm on autopilot all the time.

Does this sound like I'm unstable? Idk what's wrong with me tbh, and idk how to resolve this.
