24 hour EBF

Hello!
I have a 8 week old little guy who was born at 36+2 . So corrected age is about 4 weeks. I am EBf. Trying to see roughly if there is an equation or something to see how much roughly he should be getting in a 24 hour period based on age and/or weight. And if it is based on age should I be doing his corrected or true age?

thanks so much!

About 8-12 times in 24 hours. But some babies feed more and some less than this. It doesn't really change much until you're weaning now, babies will take the same volume of milk per day from this age up to weaning, and the content of your milk changes to match what they need.

Sooo uncomfortable at 36 weeks

I'm starting to feel super uncomfortable, my baby is measuring on the bigger side (85th centile) and I'm quite a small person, I'm really struggling with it and have SPD. This is my 3rd baby and I have a 13 month old to run around after as well. I'm so exhausted , I don't know how I can possibly do another 4 weeks, and to know we're approaching our 5th 35 degree heatwave now which is coming next week, it makes me shudder 😅 I hope and pray she comes a bit early 🙏🏻 I just want my body back.... any one else ?

Is it normal to be this anxious about everything? When out with the kids, constantly thinking someone is going to take them or when on motorway worrying I’m going to get a blow out. I went for a run this morning and started to worry

About being attacked or a cow getting out the field and chasing me.

Hopeful for my Rainbow baby

Hi everyone and congratulations.

Is anyone here having a rainbow baby?This is my 5th pregnancy but unfortunately I haven’t carried for longer than 10 weeks. I found out last year I have a bicornuate uterus and this can cause issues in early pregnancy due to the shape of my womb. I’m still really early and panicking at every twinge pull or pain that I know are completely normal. I also have strong early symptoms so I have everything crossed that this will be the one that sticks

Delivery anxiety

How you guys are dealing with delivery anxiety?
Sometimes i am really concerned about how things gonna happen as its first time for me. When will it happen ?

especially since the start of 3rd trimester i have been worried that my baby should complete 37week as i get very conscious each time i pee that is it all good as i hope that there is no blood or water leak.

Each time i have any pulls or pain i think hope it’s not contractions especially with braxton hicks.

Or everytime when i note a change in baby movement or less i get scared that hope all is okay.

I was not worried for these things in 1st and 2nd trimester and now i remain on panic mode with any unusual feelings.

How you guys are dealing it?
