Colic
My 6 week old is showing signs of colic (inconsolable crying in the evenings for hours, brings his legs up / kicks around a lot, arches back). He doesn’t really show signs of reflux.
He also refuses to lay in his crib or sleep on his back.
I was just wondering what people did to help this and your experiences? Should I get some Infacol?

So every baby is different, there's gripe water or infacol to try, former worked for us not latter. Bicycle legs to ease gas and laying on their stomach then back. Create some room in their tummy stretching their legs etc. then just soothing them until they pass the gas. Pace feeding can help apparently and feeding position in lowering air intake. All you can do really until their systems develop
We had to get to the root cause and treat that. For us that was cmpa.
I’m going through the exact same thing 😩😩

Honestly time, you can try grip water, dentiox and gripe water, different formulas. We just needed time to pass due to immature gut. Think eased around 8 months old x

How much sex a month?
How many times a month in the first year postpartum do you and your husband have sex? (Trying to figure out what the normal range is for partners with a baby!)

UK mums - Do you send your child to nursery in stained clothing?
Some of my daughter's clothes have become so stained and most of these stains have happened while she's been at nursery.
I am struggling so much to get the stains out!
I feel like if I send her in stained clothes I'll be judged or looked at weirdly like I can't afford to clean her clothes or something?
What do you do with stained clothes?
Does anyone have tips for stain removal? Red/orange food (I know sunlight but we're going into winter where it's scarce). Brown knee stains? Just like dirt stains? And yellow curry stains 😣 help me please

Bed suggestions please
This is my 4 year olds bedroom.
Can anyone recommend a bed that would fit in the room but not take all her space ?
She’s 109cm tall not sure if that makes any difference 👀.
She does not have 2 tvs the video was taken whilst re organising😂

Controlling behaviour?
If your partner didn’t force you to go to bed at a certain time, but got annoyed if you went to bed before he was ready or wanted to stay down for longer when he wants to go to bed, would that be considered controlling? Seeing as there’s no forcing involved just getting annoyed by it?

4 month regression
I feel like the worlds worst parent.
My baby is 18 weeks old and has become the lightest sleeper. I have tried sleep training, co-sleeping, feeding to sleep, rocking and patting to sleep but he just wakes up as soon as his head hits the crib. I make sure I he not up to long in the day and go over any wake windows and he lets me contact nap or put him in the najel sleep carrier but that doesn’t work at night. I’m not sure if I didn’t put him down enough when he was smaller and that’s had an effect with this now.
I speak to other mums who babies are the same age and they all sleep through the night.
Can any one tell me what I am doing wrong please. This will be week 4 with hardly a sleep now.
