That’s normal for babies 🥰especially in the first year. It’s them processing the things they take in during the day, going through the sleep cycles, or just a growth spurt. If it’s something you’re truly concerned about, always trust your instincts, mama knows best 💖 but the little cries are perfectly normal

I think it’s common but not necessarily normal…
It mostly means that the day was too much, too overwhelming. It also may indicate a sensitive temperament for kids who really absorb everything, more than others :)

Stopping bottle

My 2.5 year old is still drinking the bottle( normal milk) which I know he shouldn’t but it’s only once at night to sleep as I have a 4 month old and it’s difficult to put them both down, how do I stop the bottle?

15 months behaviour

Hey mums. I am struggling bad with my little girl at the moment. she is going through a stage where she will scream at anyone who looks at her. She’s also biting people and biting herself when she gets angry or gets told no. Definitely the terrible twos come early.

Breastfeeding

I have a 3 week old baby who is breastfed only but seems to cluster feed and seems really unsettled most times. I know shes getting enough milk and is also gaining weight but the constant crying is frustrating and makes me want to cry. I am trying to feed her more upright so she is not laying down and also keeping her upright after feeds but any advice? As I feel like im failing as a mother 😢

Avoiding tearing

Hey ladies! Has anyone started taking any supplements, doing any exercises, or anything else to help prevent tearing during birth? Would love to hear what you’re doing or what’s been recommended to you! ❤️

Please help - breastfeeding first time mum

The first 2 nights with baby I’ve had to set alarms to feed her as she would happily just sleep all the way through without waking. Tonight she’s doing the opposite🤣
I’ll feed her, put her in her next to me, within 2 mins she’s crying and showing hunger ques. So I feed her again…the process continues. She’s been in and out of this next to me about 8 times now. I don’t think it’s got anything to do with hunger I think it’s just comfort because she will happily stay sleeping on me. (Bed sharing isn’t really an option as we only have a small double bed + share with our dog, it’s already too cramped so I really do want her to be able to sleep in her own safe space). I’ve got her in a love to dream swaddle too to try to settle her but doesn’t seem to be helping. Anything else I can try ??
