We have this issue, I've tried her being awake more in the day (didn't help!) and today I've tried a probiotic with vitamin D but apparently can take a few days to see any affect. We check the basics needs then just try to distract her out of it until she sleeps, no quick fix unfortunately for us so far
Mine is the same, they don’t really know the difference between night and day. Getting out in the daytime can help. With my first I found it helpful to look at sleep over 24 hours and the quality of this
Yeo, mine is the same at 3 weeks. HV said crying increases from 2-6 weeks and then tends to calm down again
Also the same at 5 weeks. Nights are awful, he’s wide awake! But daytime he’s practically bulletproof with sleep, just in the trenches at the moment with it!

Being intimate after an episiotomy
I gave birth 4 weeks ago and the delivery was difficult, my baby was in the wrong position and with the cord around her neck, but the midwife didnt check and got me to push for an hour with no luck. I then was taken to the operating room and had a forceps delivery with an episiotomy. Im now 4 weeks post partum and I am conscious of my intimate area as I can always feel it but its not exactly painful just not comfortable like it was before. A few days ago a midwife said my stitches look to have gone now and it looks healed but I know ill get it properly reviewed at the 6 week medical check. My husband and I do want to be intimate as its been a while now, but im conscious that my area doesnt look or feel the same as it did before and I dont know what it will be like when I do have sex again. Im curious what others experiences have been who have had an episiotomy.

Own room
When is everyone realistically thinking of putting their babies in their own room? I feel like we would all sleep so much better if mine was in his own room by now!

It’s crazy being with someone for so long and a baby changes your dynamic that you almost break up before the child is even one is this a part of postpartum balancing motherhood and my relationship with my significant other 7m pp
Any success stories breaking up and getting back together

Advice on how to get my little one to sleep in the cot
Hi, mum to a 6 month old here. My little one used to sleep in the cot and wake up a few times. Since his 4 month sleep regression, we have been co-sleeping and he sleeps in bed with us. I’m worried about safe sleeping and would prefer he sleeps in the cot, however he cries as soon as I put him in the cot.
Any advice on how I can train my baby to sleep in the cot?

I dont know what to do. My 7 week old during feeds is hungry but fights it she will keep taking the bottle out but will want the milk and get upset. I think she has really bad gas and gets pains and when super hungry just refuses the
Bottle. What can I do? It may be the kendamil formula
