Lump in breast

I’m 8 weeks pp, 3rd baby but 1st time exclusively breast feeding 🥳 I noticed a hard lump on the inner right breast just over 2 weeks ago, not painful or red or anything else, anyone else had this and any idea what it is?

Could be a collapsed duct! I’d say use cold compress and take sunflower lithicin

Definitely keep an eye on it over next few weeks. If it’s still there, please go get it checked

Thank you ❤️ I’ve tried everything hand expressing in the shower, trying to push it out when little man is feeding but not going away 😅 as I said it’s not causing any issues, supply seems fine little man drinking plenty and satisfied after feeds just would of thought a clocked duct would of cleared by now but 1st time successfully feeding on demand so new territory

MIL issues

So my baby is EBF and he is only 7 weeks old on friday. Every facetime,phone call or visit she goes on about taking him home with her and talks about when she will have him over night etc. Recently my partner mentioned adding formula for some of the babys feeds I said why he is gaining weight fine there is no need and it may mess up his belly as he isn't used to it he brought this up 2 or 3 times I was confused why he even said it. Then when my MIL called she said the same thing and said when will he be going onto formula so i can have him over night at my house. I WAS FURIOUS. Am I in the wrong I told her he won't be going onto formula unless medically necessary and even if he was I wouldn't be comfortable him staying out until hes abit older. Am I in the wrong????

Early signs of autism

My little girl is 14 months old and I'm worry if she has autism. I understand it's very early for diagnosis though. She has a pretty good eye contact with me and her dad (not very good) but avoids looking at the other people's eyes. If they're away she will keep looking at them once they are close and look at her she gets uncomfortable and a bit scared. She loves reading for her a lot but I've noticed she has some sort of intense interest in some specific animals and airplane and point to them 50x times everyday and we should keep repeating their name until she let go. She's very active and hardly sit on the floor. She has started the nursery and the staff has said she just explores until gets frustrated and then cries.
She can clap hands, wave and point very well. She says a few words but I feel she has gone a bit quiet recently but has a very good understanding of words and follow simple commands if listens and not run away!
Can anyway who has experience share their thoughts please.

Worried about babies development..

I have contacted our HV a lot and to be honest, they haven’t been that helpful or have made me feel like I’m going mental!
My boy is nearly 10 months old, he does not babble, transition into sitting or standing (I know standing is still early), not crawling or copies.
He has always hated tummy time, he was a late roller as he only rolled belly to back at around 7.5 months.
I thought by now, we would have more babble noises or be wanting to push up on all fours but he just screams and flattens.
He’s never been the happiest baby, I’ve just always felt like there has been something wrong but have never put my finger on it or know what to tell people..
He SCREAMS whenever he is put on the floor but throws himself back to hit his head on us when we hold on, he flaps his arms a lot and just seems miserable, all of the time.
I’m kind of at a loss here, I’m a first time mum and other babies his age just seem a lot happier and are doing a lot more.
I feel like I’m missing out on my first time baby experience as he’s just upset all the time and cannot do anything..
We had our 9 month health visitor appointment the other day and I ticked “not yet” for a lot of the boxes, the health visitor kind of downplayed a lot of this and I felt like I was talked into ticking sometimes for a lot of the things but he doesn’t do them? I don’t know, it’s just making me really upset, I just want my happy boy but I don’t know what else I can do 😢😢

About how many ounces are you all feeding your 7 week old babies? She’s on breast milk and I’m pumping / bottle feeding

Bedtime nappies

Our little boy has started sleeping through the night but as a result his nappy is rather full on the morning and leaking. We currently use pampers and they have been perfect up until now anyone got any recommendations of nappies to try!

Not doing enough?!

Does anyone else feel like they are not doing enough with their baby? Mine is 5 weeks old today and as an example I’ve just got him in his cot with no visual stimulation as I’m trying to get him to nap but it’s been like 30 mins and he’s still awake and I’m thinking - is he bored?! But I just want a lil nap for him so I can get a couple bits done! I find the days go by in such a blur and by the end I feel guilty that I didn’t give him enough “play time” with like black and white sensory things or visual stimulation. I’m worried I’m setting him up for failure at only 5 weeks old looool. Please tell me I’m not the only one!
