Learn more about our guidelines.Since birth 2 weeks ago, I have felt such dislike toward my partner. He is VERY supportive in terms of looking after our 4 yr old, doing loads round the house, seeing to baby whenever, taking lots of night shifts. I couldnt fault him AT all.
However emotionally/mentally I feel he doesnt understand and he is snappy with me, and I am feeling resentment toward him for unknown reasons other than the emotional disconnection
I told him and he said "im using birth and 9 months of pregnancy as an excuse" which really upset me and Im crying, but he just see's me crying or upset as nothing and "just hormones" and I get no comfort, nothing.
I cant see how we can go back to getting on atm, any advice?

My boy is 10 weeks and exclusively breastfed aside from 1 bottle of ebm in the evening.
He used to take avent soothies, nanobebe or avent air but lately has been refusing all of them. He has just learned how to suck this thumb too which I'd rather he had a dummy then suck his thumb because I can take a dummy away, but he has his thumb forever.
The thumb sucking started after the dummy refusal.
I was wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience and found any spesific dummy swapped out well for thumb.
We've tried lots so I will reply to comments with a 💚 if we've tried them.

So I’m 3 weeks postpartum on Friday and my emotions are all over the place, I have cried everyday since leaving hospital and last night I was so angry with my husband I punched the chair in our bedroom and my hand is absolutely killing me. Today I am just not feeling it with anything I feel sad, I feel like I want to run away and never return. Anybody else feel like this

My 4 week old baby is struggling to poo regularly. He can go a couple of days without doing anything. He passes wind, you can see he is trying poo and is in pain/uncomfortable. He is formula fed on Aptamil, has infacol with every feed and we’ve started to introduce one pre-made bottle a day as have been told this helps them to poo/flush them out.
Has anyone else experienced similar and have any suggestions?
Would changing brand of formula help?
