The heat.. what do I do

My baby has a fan in his room & the window open but the Tommee tippee egg still says it’s 27 degrees🥴
He’s only in a nappy but is there anything I can do to make the room cool down more before I go to bed?

It’s reached 25/26 before and he’s been fine but walking into his room is like a sauna it’s ridiculous - ours isn’t much better.

I am not making it up

So my daughter is now two months old and about 14days old, she was five weeks early, so any way I was told by my last HV appointment she should start smiling, I was like ok but in her own time, I know babies will do things in their own time, last week I began to notice her trying to smile and yesterday I leaned over her cot to give her a morning kis and she smiled at me and fell asleep, when she was a awake she smiled at me while I dressed her, this morning she smiled again and tired to get photos, these are her smiling aren't they, I was letting her do in her own time but I didn't know if premature babies have some catching up to do because they are premature but please tell the truth is she starting to smile

Bedtime ruined 🫶🏼

Anyone else just had their already difficult because of the heat, bedtime RUINED because of those government alerts 🥴🫪

Failed the transfer & had 45 minutes of screaming, then finally dozing off & those alerts go off! Startled the baby & we are back to screaming again 🫠🫠🫠

Do children with noise sensitivity always have ASD or can it be a phase?

She’s 3 doesn’t like loud noises, or repetitive noises. Easily startled to the point where me and my husband can’t shout for each other in separate rooms. Wont wear headphones because she doesn’t like them. Doesn’t like when people say bye also. Currently waiting on a referral for a hearing test.

Feeding during heatwave

Wanting other mums opinions…
I have a 3 month old baby which I formula feed.
Between feeds would you offer your baby a few sips of water inbetween as we’re in a heatwave, or do you just offer more feeds?
At the moment as it’s so hot I don’t want him to get dehydrated so I fed every 3 hours. Is that enough or not?

Car

My baby is 10 weeks old and has pretty much from 2 weeks old hated the car. Im genuinely at the point of considering buying another car seat to see if that makes a difference. People who have had the same experience, what did you do? She screams no matter the length of the journey and is so distracting.

People are telling me to bottle feed!!!!

I’m exclusively breastfeeding and I keep getting comments saying I should express my milk and bottle feed. I really don’t want to. Does anybody else find people comment on this?
