As my LO's first birthday is approaching, I am getting hit with a really heavy sense of nostalgia, missing the lead up to my baby's delviery, even labour and that fresh post partum feeling. My question is, does it feel as special the second time around?? Im upset I'll bever get to experience that feeling again.

For me it does and I’m currently pregnant with baby number 4 each one has been special although my labour and delivery with October baby was very traumatic

Personally the only thing I feel that feels different is the amount of time you get to savour those moments. First pregnancy is just beautiful and nostalgic, for the second + you are just so busy you have to slow yourself down to take it all in.
But the experience itself, so wonderful. And surprisingly still individually special 🫶

I still felt the same with my second x

Definitely felt as special second time round. It was actually better for me as my first delivery was quite traumatic so it was a really healing experience x

I do have a slight feeling of mourning as the first year passed and the baby is slowly turning into a toddler. So happy for the stage we are at as it is really lovely, but yeah, it keeps popping into my mind that this is the last time I have a baby, and that baby is no longer a little baby anymore. A bit of the blues...
I also feel more appreciative this time around as I know how quickly it goes, so I just want to cherish all the moments and stages. Firstborn is almost 10 yrs old, and I have no idea where this decade dissappeared.
Has anyone got one of these from a brand they recommend? Not sure if Coco seat is a UK brand or what it's like as a company?
Thanks in advance!

My baby is 15 weeks on Saturday. He used to sleep 9ish-6am with only 1 wake for a feed. He’s now ready for bed at 7/7:30 and sleeping until 7am but waking for 3 feeds! He had dropped to 6 5oz bottle but has now added in an extra one at 11pm. I’ve tried him with some 6oz bottles in the day but he struggled with them. What’s going on? Do I need to ride it out or try and up his daytime intake?

Hi all so my nearly 3 week old is wanting to sleep through the night she has had no issues with her weight and is gaining really well. Can I let her sleep through or do I keep waking her? TIA x

My 12 week old uses Aldi Mamia size 3 nappies during the day with no problems, but at night both Mamia and Pampers Premium Protection size 3 have leaked after a few hours. Has anyone got tips for nighttime leaks or recommendations for other brands or strategies?
