Baby breastfeeding while asleep?

My 3month old has started to keep drinking while she falls asleep? As in, Im nursing her, shes suckling, and then she nods off but...just keeps suckling? Lazily, but definitely still chomped on. She fights me when I try to break the seal, and if I dont remove the nipple from her she'll sleep-suckle for 20, 30min easily. When I do remove it successfully she wakes a few minutes later, absolutely furious!

Is this a 3month thing? My poor nipples 😢

C-section mums..

How soon after your sections did you go for a bath, I’ve read your not meant to soak the scar/wound in a bath but doesn’t say when you can 🫣 sometimes a shower just doesn’t cut it for “me time” 😅
Also how are people keep it dry, I have a slight overhang so looking for the best way to keep the scar dry without rubbing it with a towel like I want too!

Size nappies

What size are you using ??

Deodorant for a 5 Year Old?

My girls pitts are getting a little tart. Any natural remedies? Are we really using deodorant that young?

Any suggestions please and thank you!

Do you ever smack?

So I have a 24 month old and starting on our disciplinary journey. I watched an episode of supernanny where a 4 year old was screaming, kicking, hitting, spitting and generally out of control all day and it scared the shit out of me because I know im quite soft and sensitive and not always good at discipline. My mum already says my boy is way more wilful than I was.
How do you discipline? Many were saying the boy in super nanny needed a good smack...i don't like this idea but I see the need for it sometimes...
Any feedback welcomed

Washing clothes before baby gets here.. they're all ruined??

I've been washing the newborn and 0-3 clothes I've got for my baby. Online I saw advice saying don't use fabric softener as it's not good for babies, just use non-bio detergent, but the clothes are coming out feeling SO rough compared to how soft they were 😭 there's no way this is better for a newborn than straight out of the packet?? I feel like I'm ruining all the clothes.
I've been using Fairy Non-Bio.

I’m over it

**STORY TIME because I really need to get this off my chest…**

I’ve been through A LOT with my youngest daughter’s father. While I was pregnant, I was grieving my brother and my mom, and instead of being there for me, he made everything about himself. He cheated, disrespected me, told me to shut the fuck up while I was pregnant, and still expected me to keep showing up like nothing happened.

And his family? Please. I helped his mother. I helped his grandmother. I showed love, brought food, put food in that refrigerator, and helped whenever I could. I never asked for anything in return, but somehow I couldn’t even get a simple THANK YOU. Instead, I got disrespect.

And after I had my C-section, did anybody check on ME? Did anybody ask how I was healing? If I was okay? If I needed anything? Not one damn person. I had just gone through major surgery while taking care of a newborn, and somehow everybody was worried about everything except the woman who just gave birth except my family (shoutout to them)

Then I’m in the hospital in pain, getting induced with OUR daughter, and he’s sitting on the couch and going outside to smoke instead of comforting me. Then questioning if the baby is his because she doesn’t look like him. Like please—genetics don’t stop at your damn face.

And every time I speak about how I feel, I’m told to shut the fuck up. Even making a comment about pushing me off a train platform and laughing about it was completely out of line.

But here’s the part everybody needs to understand: I remember EVERYTHING. I remember who I helped when I didn’t have to. I remember who I fed. I remember who I showed love to. I remember who I stood beside. And I remember exactly how y’all treated me when I was the one who needed love and support.

I’m not bitter. I’m just DONE. I don’t regret having a good heart, but I damn sure regret giving that good heart to people who took advantage of it.

You can’t disrespect me over and over and then expect the same woman who kept forgiving you to keep showing up. That woman is gone. My kindness has an expiration date, and y’all used yours up.

I’m taking my energy, my peace, and my love back. My babies come first, and I will never again lose myself trying to prove my worth to people who already showed me they didn’t appreciate me.

No revenge. No begging. No more chances. Just distance, peace, and a life where none of this bullshit gets access to me anymore.
