I went through a stage of calling my mum “Mother” (big fan of The Land Before Time). Eventually she told me to stop lol. I’m sure it’s just because she’s learnt your name and is excited so wants to use it - just a phase.

Not sure I'm in love anymore

I am 13 weeks postpartum and I keep questioning whether I still love my husband or not. After I gave birth he was supportive but when we got home I started suffering with depression and he was so unsupportive! We've argued a lot, not as much now but I fear the damage is done, did anyone else experience anything simular and fall back in love?

Car seat ??

Hi everyone,
I am going to be a first time mum for a baby boy in December,
We have recently brought a second hand pram in perfect condition; it’s a Babylo panarama XT, we have the car seat adaptors but unsure which car seats are compatible with it, I was wondering if anyone also has this pram?

Secondly,
How useful is it to have the car seat hook onto the pram itself or is it something which people don’t use.
Do I need a car seat compatible with my pram?

Sorry for the long question.
Thankyou 😘

13 month old moody

Am I the only one? My little girl is 12 months next week and she’s just so moody. She does smile and laugh ect but most of the time she’s throwing herself around, having tantrums won’t let me change her won’t let me dress her. I feel like giving up sometimes 😩 does this phase ever end? Am I doing something wrong? Is there any advice?

Night time

I feel like i keep seeing posts about babies sleeping for 4/5 hours at night in a routine of waking up at 3am and then 7am etc and its making me paranoid 😆

My little one is 4.5 weeks and has zero routine at night, every night is totally different! He still hates the next to me crib, wants to sleep on mine or my husbands chest, ive tried to co sleep but he still doesn't love being laid flat on his back. Some nights it honestly feels like hes awake wanting to feed all night! (Im EBF)

Weve had a few good nights but overall its still minimal sleep 😴

My question is.. am I the only one?! And if so, when did it all start to change and get a little more routiney?

During the day we do contact naps (which honestly, I love!) But should I be trying to enforce more solo sleeping??

Thanks x
