Night feeds
Hi I need help
my 4 almost 5 month old is feeding so much at night- 4 times last night. She is combi fed, she doesn’t have many bottled tho, only 1 a day and she only had around 70mls. She feeds often in the day every 2hrs ish. I’m not sure what I can do to stretch out the feeds in the day or night. I’m so tired of waking up so often now. Last night she fed 12:00qm, 1.30am, 3.30 am and 5.30 it’s killer I try and soothe her other ways but it doesn’t work.

Could be the 4 month sleep regression and she's feeding for comfort. My little ones sleep regression hit at 5 months and was exactly like this xx
Ive tried feeding her a bottle before bed and she still wakes up x
What’s her schedule? Wake, naps, bedtime? If you think she’s eating enough in the day, it might partially be a sleep pressure issue and she only needs to feed 1-2 times x

What do you do during your toddlers tantrums?
My little boy had what I would say was his first tantrum yesterday, and it was over putting his shoes and coat on (i’m sure they’ll be many more to come) but i just continued to put his coat and shoes on an getting his brother ready through the kicking screaming and crying. Is that okay? As soon as we got outside he was fine

Pooping issues
Anyone have any tips my 5 weeks old seems to be really struggling to poo. It’s the only time he cry’s and get really unsettled, I’ve tried all the leg exercises and tricks from instagram and nothing helps. He’s on Kendamil formula any suggestions?!

Grieving advice
Hi ladies.. I am just looking for advice from anyone who has tried anything before as my GP hasn’t been very helpful. I’ve also reached out to the postnatal team and still waiting to hear despite chasing up.
I lost my dad when I was 35 weeks pregnant with my second daughter. She is now 4 months and while I am coping very well considering the heartache I am going through, I still feel I need to speak with a professional who may be able to help me process things better than I am currently.
Thank you x

Baby just keeps moving his head
My 9 week old does not stop moving his head from side to side when I’m trying to put him to sleep. Sometimes he’ll rest face down on my chest. Hes super tired and has been fed but he is constantly fidgeting. I’ve tried burping him but nothing. I keep him upright after feeds but even then he is always moving. It’s as though he can’t get comfy! Anyone’s LO do the same? I just don’t get it

Daytime naps
What are we using for daytime naps for our little ones? She is currently 3 months and has been having her day time naps in pram bassinet but I don't want to do that anymore.
Upstairs she has a next to me, so just after something comfortable for her to sleep in downstairs and nicely matches the living room aesthetics 😂

Suncream
We've been using child's farm but just wondering what everyone else is using & why?
I've read this one is good but it's also really yellow and stains everything even if we let it dry before getting her dressed
