Someone tell me it gets easier
I feel like I’m in the 10 month trenches. My little boy never stops winging, he cries when I don’t sit on the floor with him while he plays, I feel like I never stop!! I keep waiting for it to get easier. Someone tell me it gets easier as they get older ?!

I can't say much because I'm in the exact same situation, just wanted to say you aren't alone, this stage is rough as fuck
My 8.5 month old started this right at 8 months, we kept thinking it was teething but no teeth have shown yet, then he was having some constipation so we thought that was the issue, but no matter what we try he's only happy for a few minutes at a time. I know at 8 months they have separation anxiety kicking in, but I feel like thats not it. We'll be holding him and he still screams. I hope it gets better once he can communicate what he needs

Feeling down and defeated
I’m feeling some what down and think I’ve got postnatal depression. My 5 month old is just refusing to do anything but cry on me, not sleep or eat (he does have a clean nappy), and my partner pretty much treats me like I’m his maid and not his partner. I don’t feel at all happy with my life and I just feel stuck. I know I’m not being the best mother I can be but this has become my daily life now. I don’t know what to do. I really don’t want judgment but I’ve never felt so alone. I feel like the worst parent going.

Transitioning carrycot to seat (pram)
Hello, I am a first time mum and was wondering when mums moved their babies out of the carrycot to the seat? My baby girl loves to look out and be nosey.

Arm jerking, stiffening and discomfort
My 10 month old is constantly flailing her arms. She also thrusts her arms out in a jerking movement and stiffens her body. She has started to shout with it like shes in discomfort. My GP and the hospital just say its excitement or frustration. We are concerned there are most neurological issues that are not being taken seriously. Its hard to capture it on video as as soon as I get my phone out she stops! I have a few videos that show it well though.
She has had an EEG which was normal. This has been going for months now though....
Any one else's little one do this??

Breast milk supply
I feel like my supply isn’t enough for my baby. She’s feeding every hour and I assumed this was to increase my supply but it seems to not be working. I try to pump when I can but it’s hard to do it 8 - 12 times a day when she feeds about 15 times a day! I would literally get nothing else done. We’re having to feed her with formula more often to keep her settled and full, is there anything else I can do or am I seeing the end of breastfeeding 😕
