hi babe, my girl has cmpa, reflux, colic & tongue tie and we was in the exact same situation.
What helped for me , may not help for you but I can share what I did.
•the side laying position on the forearm
•going for walks especially in the night time
•when he’s crying uncontrollably, I will hold him upright but not facing you, facing the world

also does he have reflux or anything else you are aware of because can get mistaken for cmpa??

Also have you changed his milk recently?

PPD PTSD from birth

I’ve been really struggling with maternity leave and feeling completely detached and angry (sadly with my son). Just wanted to hear from people that got through similar, I’m starting therapy next week and my baby is 7 weeks old.

Breast Pump Recommendations

I want to breastfeed as much as possible but we also want to pump so my husband can do some feeds too. Does anybody have any recommendations for ones that worked for them? There’s far too many options!!

What did you do with the pram/carrycot when your little one outgrew it?

Tried to sell it on fb marketplace but no luck. Other shops/charities/online platforms that worth trying? (UK only)

Stressed with a crying baby

Mums, I’m honestly at the end of my wits with the crying 😭

My little one is 8 weeks old and lately he seems to cry so much. I’m finding it really overwhelming and stressful.

I feel awful saying this, but I’m finding it really hard to enjoy motherhood at the moment because so much of the day feels like trying to settle a crying baby.

For anyone who went through a really fussy/crying phase around this age — when did it start getting better for you? I just need some hope that this phase does pass. 🤍

Feeding out and about

Hey ladies.
I am only breastfeeding my baby and I would like to go out for a longer walk/shops, but I don't feel confident breastfeeding outside. So I am seeking some advice on how I can feed my LO with breast milk only in public. Thank you.

Breast milk jewellery

Has anyone turned their breast milk into jewellery? I’ve seen ads for stores in Canada and the US but would love to know if anyone’s used a uk jeweller and
get some recommendations.
