LG is 7 weeks and 2 days old and days I have no plans I absolutely dread getting her to sleep in the day. she sleeps lovely in the carrier or in the car but at home she often fights it. I have to rock and walk around with her for ages and if I sit down too soon I risk a 10 min power nap and she's awake again. It's making me dread just being at home. anyone else in the same boat?

My little man is 4 weeks and fights sleep during the day at the house unless our for a walk or in the car! I will rock him until he’s out for the count and the second he’s put in his Moses basket he wakes

Yep same! I rock her, she sleeps, I put her down, she wakes. So sometimes I just keep her on me but then she also soon wakes. It’s hell. I dread it
So we only have this problem at night and it’s only a recent thing. So my son has been feeding a lot at night. Every 2 hours or so and completely emptying both sides before going back to sleep. This means his nappies at every wake up are extremely full. Every time I change him he pees or there is so much in the nappy it ends up all over his back and I have to change his clothes. I have tried a tissue over, I’ve tried putting the new nappy on and pulling the old one from under it (I guess like the knicker trick some of you may have done as kids) and it is still everywhere. I’m already exhausted getting up so often and having to do a full clothing change at night is a nightmare… please help!

Seeing if others have experienced this with their kids. My daughter needs deodorant, I don’t remember using it that young. Is that normal? I’ve used mine on her a few times, the native brand, works great! Wondering what non toxic aluminum free kid brands people would recommend ✨

My 3 week old takes at least 1-2hrs to fall back asleep after her midnight feed, any tips to get her to sleep quicker? I rock her til my arms fall off, she doesn’t give a shit about white noise and startles herself awake a lot 😩 and any tips on transferring her to her cot without her waking up cos her sweaty head was sticking to my arm would be grand too! Thank you. ❤️

Hi everyone, I need some advice please. So we used to live in a flat where it only had a shower so we used those foldable tubs to give our baby baths. We used to lay him back and rinse his head. We now moved to a different house with a bath tub. Everytime it’s time to shampoo his hair, he starts crying. He doesn’t like water over his face. How can I rinse the shampoo off his head. He literally screams the place down.

Is there anything worth getting from Aldi at their baby event for a first time mum?
Not sure whether any of it is good/worth it
Thank you xx
