Middle of the night-wide awake
Our baby has started waking about three hours after initially falling asleep and having full wake windows. No matter what time we push bed time. She’s EBF but we’ve even tried giving her a formula bottle to see if that would help but it isn’t. I’m at a loss as to what to do next. Any advice welcome or even just knowing we’re not the only ones 😭A good night at the moment is if she wakes up every three hours and goes back to sleep.

The extra formula you’ve offered have you tried offering before bed rather than the wake up window ?
Waking in night can also show signs of grow spurt! So as hard as it is, won’t be forever, will just feel forever when in it!
Also, this may find random… but also try teething stuff. Just in case it’s just her teeth coming through even if she’s not showing signs of pain!
Pretty normal overall! Do you have a nap schedule? Is she sleeping alone or with you?

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.

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.

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??

Mamia nappies - Cord cut out section?!
Just read the packaging on these nappies after using them for a few days and realised they're supposed to have a cord cut out section but they don't?
Am i missing something or are the three packs i've gone through all fibbing? My little one's cord is off now but is taking a while to heal so i've been stuck folding these down so they don't go over his button whilst it dries and heal properly, a cut out section would've been ideal
