Sick after bottle feeding

I just fed my 5 week old some formula ( 110ml ) and normally he burps well but he didn’t so I thought it’s fine. Put him down and he kind of projectile vomited some of the milk, made me panic. I picked him up and tried to burp him, he looked so uncomfortable but eventually settled and now I’m sat up in a chair scared to pop him down! Does that happen to many of you? He’s fast asleep now snoring away ( he snores normally )

Yes it’s happened many times to my baby. It’s most likely due to wind not coming up before I wouldn’t worry it always looks like a lot more sick than it is too.

My daughter did this after I gave her dummy, I had held for about ten minutes to let her milk go down, burped her and then offered her dummy to her which she took, then she did while her dummy was still in, I realised what was going to happen as I getting dressed and watching her and I never moved so fast in my life but I didn't make it and she brought milk up, it went up her nose, all over face, she screamed and I had to hold her for a while, I actually now place her in her baby bouncer chair afterwards sometimes if she's more awake as I see it as letting the milk go down. It does happen, I try burping mine in multi ways when younger, she now sometimes needs picking up to place on my shoulder to burp and she has a huge burp in my face!

Calpol before bed

(FTM) My 6 month old is currently teething. Nights are becoming super difficult but we’ve found having one dose of calpol before bed keeps him happy. Is it ok to be doing one a night? We don’t do any pain killers in the day as he seems fine without but without those distractions he’s fussy. We have tried alternatives like Bonjela and teething powder but they don’t seem to do much if anything.

How do I get my 9 year olds to stop wearing his brothers clothes

My boys are 13 months apart. They are 9 and 8 but my 9 year old is in clothes between 10/12 and 14s depending on brand and my 8 year old is in size 8s. But I keep catching my 9 year old wear his brothers clothes then it’s a fight with him and he doesn’t want to take them off I literally have to take them off of him myself and make him put his own clothes on him.

How do I stop this?

Also they share a room and I separate their clothes the best I can.

Crying when changing nappy

Baby is 10 days old and cries so bad every time we change his nappy, is anyone else’s little one the same?
Is there anything we can do to try and calm him down?

Sleep consultants

Has anyone used a sleep consultant that they would recommend? I want to try and help my baby (nearly 11 months) to sleep better at night before I go back to work in November. She wakes multiple times and after almost 6 months of this I could really do with some better sleep too 🙏🏻
