Period underwear?

Hi this might be TMI but please help.

Ever since I had my son my cervix as been a lot lower which makes tampons soo uncomfortable and I have really sensitive skin so pads gives me almost like a nappy rash even if I change it very frequently. So I’m just wondering about period underwear? Are they good? Which brands? Where to start??

I do love period underwear, mainly if staying at home. I use Fluxies and really like them. Just note there are different flow levels and you need to pick the right one for you. You will have to change them if you have a heavy flow, they will both smell and soak through if you let them sit for too long. Hope this helps!

Even if you do want a disposable option and if you haven't tried already, TOTM do good products which are organic cotton and no nasties in them.

Why do I feel like a bad mom?

My daughter is 1 and I know kids her age don't really understand the word "don't" or "stop" but we have a storm so we are in and out of power she kept saying dog because we were watching the live action Clifford movie so I was trying to connect back to WiFi while she was jumping on my bed. I told her to stop and sit down and next thing I know she fell off my bed! I heard her head hit the carpet and then all I heard next was her screaming like I've never heard before. I instantly picked her up to try and soothe her. She's sleeping right now because she had a long day and was already tired before the incident occurred. I feel so horrible and I can't stop crying. My mom called and I explained what happened to her and my stepdad even came in to check on her but no one else is answering me and I feel so alone right now. I don't know what to do. What signs should I look for when she wakes up? Does this make me a bad mom? Idk I just can't stop crying and I'm very shaken up. Please help 😭

Car seat hell - help

My lG hates the car seat, and I mean hates. She screams and screams every car journey to the point we have to pull over. Even if I’m sat in the back, fed well before, made sure she’s comfortable, nothing is helping and I am starting to become traumatised from going in the car as I’m worried she will stop breathing from screaming. My first was bad but this is on another level.

Any advice please

Momcozy breast pump

I’m wanting to buy a momcozy breast pump which is £160 on Amazon. Are there any other trustworthy sites that anyone was able to purchase them from for a little bit cheaper? Just thought I’d ask before buying them off Amazon. Thank you! 😊

Putting baby to sleep has to be one of the most frustrating things ever

Honestly I love my baby so much but the frustration I feel when I’m rocking, swaying and shh-ing at 5am only for them to wake up as soon as I put them down. I genuinely feel like punching myself. It’s like just go to bloody sleep😭

Formula Amount

How much is everyone’s baby eating? Age, amount and how frequent?

My little boy is 7 weeks old and he has anything between 70ml-120ml every 2 hours! I always worry that the 70ml is too little but he’s gaining beautifully. Was 7lbs 10 at birth and is now 11lbs 8😬

Would you start introducing duvet into cot with sides up?

LO is turning 2 and has got out her sleeping sack every night for 4 weeks. We have bought a 120cmx100cm breathable duvet. The cot is 120x60cm

Would anyone implement this with 40cm extra duvet width with cot sides up? She isnt ready for sides to be down yet
