2 months vaccination

My 2 month old baby girl just got her vaccination today and she’s been super sleepy, only sleeps then wakes up, nurses a little and whines until she falls back asleep.
How did it go for your babies? Any tips on making her comfortable? Should I be waking her more ?

It is very normal for your baby to be tired and just wants cuddles. Also check her temperature because sometimes they can get a fever. If your baby seems to be uncomfortable you can always give them Baby Tylenol. But ask your pediatrician what the dose is.

I had to give my son Tylenol since he had a little fever and was super uncomfortable would fall asleep but wake up crying

Mine did something similar for about 24 hours. I likened it to being a bit run down after my own vaccinations. It stimulates the immune system, which can be tiring.

I’d let her sleep but keep an eye on her. You’re doing the right thing by her but it’s still an emotional time for us moms!

I just took my baby for shots yesterday and today she was sleepy too I guess it's normal since they aren't going to feel too good afterwards

Opinions needed!

So my partner and I aren't that well off financially. We vave a 19 month old and I'm 30 weeks pregnant. We wanted to move to a 2 bed flat before baby comes but it seems we can't afford it comfortably.

Is it unrealistic to change our 1 bed flat to a 2 bed, where we'd change the front room slightly for my partner, me and the newborn to sleep so that my toddler can have his own room. I'm also weary of my son having to get used to being in his own room before baby comes, so us staying where we are would enable him time for that.

Or, do we push for another flat that's bigger and more expensive and scrape by?

What are your thoughts?

Milk supply

Can you train yourself to make more milk or do you just have a set amount?😆

I only manage to get 2 ounces each session (1 ounce from each side).
Baby is nearly 4 weeks old & I’ve been pumping since day 3 when my milk came in.
I pump very regularly (after every breast feed to top my girl up because she gets so sleepy on the boob & doesn’t get a chance to drink the fatty milk, this was causing weight issues so was advised to do this by the feeding clinic). I’ve never had the chance to build a stash because she obviously drinks it all as soon as it’s pumped. I’d love to be able to produce more, the only advice I’ve seen is to pump & feed regularly & stay hydrated which I already do x

Wearing baby sleeping bag

Hi guys, so as it's been summer I haven't needed to use a sleeping bag for my son. Since it's getting colder now, I've started using it but am curious to know when do people put sleeping bags on their babies? I usually feed to sleep so I wait until he's sleepy then put him in his sleeping bag but then he wakes up again. I then have to feed him more before he dozes off again. Is there a better way of doing it that I haven't thought of?
