This is how my boy sleeps and has done since we came home. Health visitor says he will grow out of it and just to put him on his back when I can but he rolls right back again 🤣

As long as you are always putting baby on back every time you put them down. My LO is nearly one and still sleeps on her side!

Advice is to put baby down on back but if they roll or move to another position leave them be. My 9 month old has always moved onto side and still does

My daughter was sleeping like this in the NICU most nights. The nurses would prop her up this way in the night sometimes because it soothed her reflux. When we got home I would place her on her back and come back to find her on her side or her belly. She was never a back sleeper. She’s almost 3 now
This may sound silly, but I’m a FTM so any advice would be appreciated 🥹
My baby is 11 days old, and at some point I would like to start going out more but I’m confused how the bottles will be sterile in a bag, I currently use the Tommee Tippee bottles and the Tommee Tippee UV steriliser but I read once they are out the steriliser they aren’t sterile anymore? Maybe I’m misunderstanding it. Just wanted some advice on what other people do 😊

We’re in the gutter of the 4 month regression. My son wakes up ever hour at night screaming. We cosleep and that has made zero difference. He doesn’t always wake up to eat sometimes he just wants us to walk him. I feel like im going insane havent slept in three weeks now. During the day he only does contact naps. Next week im going to try to get to stop doing the contact naps but im terrified that hes going to go crazy and sleep will be even worse. I’m going to do the Ferber method week. I need encouragement and tips and tricks if you have any!

The egg shows its 21.8 degrees in this bedroom.
She’s in a footed sleepsuit and a 1 tog sleepsuit. Is this ok? She feels warm but not clamming.
She’s 10 weeks old and on antibiotics for a viral infection, so I’m second guessing everything.

PLEASE someone tell me if im in the wrong.
So I got married had a baby and moved to a city 1 hr 30 mins from my friends and family. During pregnancy I had really bad anxiety I couldn’t leave the house much so I wasn’t seeing friends much as I would get anxious going on public transport and being away from home (it was a reallyl strange feeling as id never felt like this). On top of this I isolated a lot where I wouldn’t message/call people a lot. My family would constantly be in contact and maybe one friend would also try stay connected to me. Despite this I always felt connected to my friends . Anyways so after giving birth two friends visited one came with gifts. Now I’m more comfortable travelling to my hometown and then visiting other close friends.
So far my other friends have met my baby at 8 months. I initiated the meet up, no gifts, no questions about birth, pregnancy, motherhood etc. I can understand the no contact from my side made it seem like I didn’t want them coming over or knowing about my baby BUT I still feel horrible knowing no one was excited to see my baby. No one’s been asking about her or wanting to spoil her or asking to visit her. Basically talking to me like nothings changed in my life. None of my friends have children and I’ve been telling myself maybe they just don’t understand how much my daughter means to me and how much I’d love them being so interested in getting to know her.
Side note but did anyone else struggle to keep on top of messaging and FaceTiming friends ?
