Feeling awful!

I usually wake my 14 month old around 6-6.30 if I’m working in the evening at 8pm, so he sleeps on time. But he is going through a 2-1 nap transition and I let him sleep in and he woke naturally at 7.25 thinking he will have 1 long nap in the afternoon and has an early bed time. But he only had an hour sleep and of course needed a second nap which means things will just won’t work out and I have to work also. Tried to get him to have a quick bridge nap and he didn’t sleep. So we skipped the second nap and he started to crash from 6.50pm. Finally fell asleep at 7.20. I’m trying to ween him off of breastfeeding as well but I had to stop all that today and offer him the breast too. I just feel absolutely awful he stayed up for 7 hours and his little body can’t handle it. Just wanted to get it out my chest.

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?

Sleep regression

I’m seeing and hearing lots about the 4 month sleep regression but has anyone not ever got out of the newborn cycle and still only getting 2-3hour stretches and never got a “down all night”?! The most my LO has slept was 5 hours, ONCE!

Is this going to get worse and go to hourly?!

I am taking it as I am not missing something I’ve never had and just functioning on 2 hr sleep stretches is fine 🥲

Do people just breastfeed? No pumping

I’m doing that right now but I’m wondering if I should be pumping aswell
Any tips for me for this to be successful. First time really going for it with breastfeeding even tho it’s my 4th child

Size 2 nappies

My LB will be 5 weeks tomorrow and he currently weights about 10lb 6oz, but he is quite a long baby & we’ve just had to size up to Pampers size 2 from 1; it felt like they weren’t fitting right around his hips and kept leaking! Has anyone else reached size 2 around this age? X

Bottle washing

What dish soap are you using for washing your bottles? Was using NUK dish soap but went through that in no time. Fairy is making it smell so soapy, and I can’t find anything that’s unscented!
