Why are newborns so noisy when sleeping?
They say sleep when your baby sleeps, but how are you supposed to do that when you constantly end up checking because the noises they are making sound like a literal demonic possession. My daughter woke for a feed during the night, I changed her and fed her and popped her back into her cot once she was asleep but then proceeded to spend the next half hour turning on the night light and checking if she was still asleep due to the noises and movement coming from her next to me. By the time I get back to sleep she will be nearing her next wake window 😅

Haha literally in the same situation with my daughter 🤣🫣
Same!! It’s so hard to know the difference between genuine hunger/distress and just the random sounds - so many grunts 😅

Bathing baby everyday debate making me feel like a bad mum?
I’ve been seeing online lots of different opinions on bathing your baby everyday. I stopped bathing my baby everyday because I saw lots of info on how it’s bad for their skin etc and now bath mine every other day unless of course it’s a hot day or she’s been sicky/pooey or just got messy. (She gets a clean down before bed and always has fresh pjs and sheets changed regularly). However, lots of the comments say how older babies to toddlers should bath everyday and how it’s disgusting to not do it everyday? I’m
So torn and now worried that I should have been bathing her everyday and feel bad about it. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated?

7 months in and still no sleep 🫠
I’m not looking for advice I think I just want to not feel so alone. I’m 7 months in, my baby doesn’t sleep. I’m lucky if I get 3 consecutive hours. I breastfeed and baby only settles when on the boob. He’s grown out of his crib, won’t sleep in his cot, will only sleep on me or in my bed. Day time naps are a complete guess. Some days I’ll get 3 naps all around an hour. Other days I’m lucky if I get one 20 minute nap. This feels so much harder than the newborn days. I am so tired. I love my baby more than anything in the world and don’t want to be away from him for even a second but I would just love to have some sleep and/or a structure to the day.

14 weeks
I know it’s probably not colostrum but after a couple of hours my nipples seem to have a tiny amount of what I can only describe as “gunk” it’s slightly off white and hard at the surface then a little sticky. It is tiny amounts like just enough to be noticeable. I am 14 weeks so far too early for any milk production, is this something I should talk to midwife about?

Leaking overnight
My little lady is 4.5 months and has just started sleeping through the night (last 2weeks) she’s in size 2 pampers or size 3 supermarket own as they’re smaller.
I’ve pried pampers, Morrisons, Aldi nappies and through the night she’s leaking. Any recommendations, please?
