Baby carrier??
Please can any recommend a good carrier, my little girl is 4 months old, I want one with good neck support so I don’t have the hold her head from bobbing about so much when she falls asleep if that makes sense. I currently have a baby bjorn & I hate it. I need one with good back support also!! Thanks 😊😊

Ergobaby!! I just got an Omni 360 breeze from Vinted, so much better than babybjorn! I needed it for the back support and it’s amazing
Do you have a sling library nearby? That would be your best bet to find one that fits you well and suits your needs! Plus that way you can rent one and if it doesn’t work out just swap it for a different one so you’re not wasting money buying them x
Yeah sling library would be of benefit I think as good fit in any carrier should mean no head bobbing. For what it’s worth we loved the Tula FTG x
Babywearing peer supporter here, you just have to try some on and see what works for you, as what suits one person may not suit your body! In terms of head support, you shouldn't ever have anything behind baby's head when they're in the carrier. They get head/neck support from leaning on your chest and being in a good ergonomic position with a c shaped spine and m shaped legs.

Just a positive note…
Everyone warned me about the first three months being very demanding and difficult but now that we have overcome, I want to share that you will sleep again, you’ll start to enjoy routines and their smiles get bigger so it makes it all worth it 😀

No Routine!!!!
My 6 month old has no routine, and it’s not for lack of trying, he just never settles into one. His bottles are all over the place, sometimes going 2 hours in between, sometimes going 4. We can’t get him to sleep more than 20 minutes during the day. I need some routine and predictability. Pls help

I don't get how moms can't cosleep
I coslept with my first two and now I cosleep with my third, and much like breastfeeding is natural, it feels natural for me and my baby to cosleep. But now my baby has been admitted into the hospital, and I can't sleep with my baby. It feels so wrong to not have my baby at my side, to have to watch my baby all by themself. I understand the risks that many moms will say, as well as some needing it for their mental health, but I guess now as we are forced to sleep separately it has made me think. I hate not having my baby sleep by me, and I am sure the situation of being in the hospital is what is triggering me to feel this way and write this, as well as my PPA, but I couldn't imagine outside of mental health reasons, not willingly cosleeping.
I think this post was just more of a vent as I watch my little baby sleep in a hospital bed, waiting for doctors to tell us what's wrong

Need some words of wisdom please! Struggling mama here. Desperate for some help 😢
I am absolutely shattered, my 3 year old toddler (who doesn’t sleep the best) literally is barely sleeping now at all! The past 3/4 nights have been absolutely tragic. Admittedly he has a cough, so he might be a bit unwell and I understand the cough keeps him awake or wakes him when he’s sleeping however his usual first stretch of sleep is pretty much gone, which we were having a solid 4/5 hours then restless sleep. Usually he wakes around 6am but he’s been getting up around 5am, we are currently sat downstairs because we’ve given up on sleep. I really struggle to get back to sleep when woken so sleep hasn’t happened at all for me tonight think I’ve had 45 mins and the thought of a day literally running on fumes is making me want to cry my eyes out. Is there a sleep regression at 3 years old or I’m wondering if he’s having a growth spur? As he’s just had porridge at 5am as well as he said he’s hungry! I don’t know what to do but I’m a single mama, so any advice for sleep welcome! I am with someone who isn’t his dad, and we stay his most of the week where he has his own room there but he does not stay in his bed at the minute for longer than an hour! Also we are staying my mums tonight and we share a bed there due to lack of rooms.. I also have a 14 hour day tomorrow at work so I really really need some help! Very desperate with what to do going forward because I’m worried the lack of sleep will stick and he’ll just never sleep properly again 😢
