SIDS

Hey lovelies, just after some advice, I know that babies shouldn’t sleep on their tummy or on their side as it can cause SIDS but my two week old loves sleeping on her side no matter how many times we put her on her back she always rolls over and is happy laid like that…. Anyone else’s babies been like this and been okay? Constantly turning her over and I feel awful because she’s so comfy but the anxiety kills me but I feel like as long as I’m watching her she will be okay? What’s everyone’s thought on this?

So my first, had a medical condition on his spine and needed surgery when he was born. So he had to sleep on his side from day 2! . I know this is different, but when he was fully recovered at about four weeks old, he would not sleep any other way than on his side. The nursing staff told us that as long as there’s nothing in his cot and the mattress is hard and the sheets are tight, no smokers in the house etc he would be okay. 💁
I was also told if they turn themselves then it’s ok.. (probably going to get shot down for this!)

Tbh, my babies have always been on their tummy as long as I'm there watching them. To avoid them rolling over, I'd prop pillows next to them if they're on their back in the crib.

Thinning hair

Has anyone found anything that genuinely helps hair getting thicker? I used to have the thickest hair, down to my bum. Then after I had my son it just won’t stop falling out. Even now, I’m nearly 15 months PP and every day clumps of hair are falling out, even when I’m sleeping and roll over strands of hair get wrapped around my neck or hands. My hair line is so thin you can just see scalp, and if it wasn’t for how long it is, I’d genuinely look bald. Really starting to worry and stress out about it.

Mounjaro help!

Hi mums, I'm thinking of using mounjaro and wanted to ask where people were getting theirs from? There's so many online pharmacys and intro offers etc. Im a bit lost. TIA xx

Kids are mind blowing!

My 8 year old daughter cut off her eyelashes at school because her friend told her it was a good idea… I am sick. I genuinely cannot wrap my mind around this. Drop you’re experiences in the comments 😭

What do you do to help your kids decompress after school?

My 3 year old started last week and only wants to watch TV when she comes home. I’ve been letting her because it’s a big transition and she’s too tired out to do much else but I feel like she’s not getting much of a chance to calm down before bedtime!
Need some suggestions for a good after school routine ◡̈

Breastfeeding 🤱

I’m exclusively breastfeeding and since birth my 8 week old is constantly feeding. She won’t settle unless she’s on me. She won’t take to a bottle for dad to feed her and she won’t take to a dummy. Is anyone else’s baba like this? Any advise would be appreciated! 🫶🏽

Am I being over sensitive?

Met up with a friend over the summer, she noticed i was stressed and apologies for not offering any support earlier. For context, I have complex needs toddler .She offered to accompany me on a long haul flight with the toddler. I was overjoyed with this plan.Weeks later she send me an email thread confirming it is not advised she misses 2 days of her master's course.she didn't attempt to shorten the trip ,she jus cancelled.I was crushed but moved on .Today, she messaged the master's is having an open ceremony and she is asking me to attend on a Saturday evening.Its in another city, I told her I have no child care.She suggested I take the medically complex toddler with me , on the train and will end of having 1.5 hrs train ride in each direction in the late evening/night ,days before my long haul flight. I'm upset she asked, is not an important event.Am I overreacting?
