Mine doesn’t / has never taken to a dummy

Mine slept through from early on, is currently going through the regression but has still had nights of 5.5 hour stretches. She does have a dummy but has always only ever used it to fall asleep, spits it out and doesn't look for it again all night.
She is now refusing to take it at all (quite annoying as it really helps calm her and helps transition her to sleep!)

Mine does but normally only really takes it to soothe for naps during the day but even then it’s not always that he’ll even take it😅

Mines never had a dummy and slept through from about 9 weeks. He stirs for a feed and i feed him before he’s fully awake. Some nights he feeds once, but can be two or three feeds x

Our first stretch is 5-7 hours. No dummy. My now 4yo slept through from 8 weeks until the regression. Also no dummy.

Traveling by car

FTM to a one month old and we want to travel to visit family so they can meet the baby. The drive is only 4 hours away but online keeps saying to take breaks etc because its dangerous to have the baby in a car seat for more than 2 hours at a time. Anyone been thru something similar? And what did you do?

Tips for selling baby and maternity items?

I have lots of baby items (next to me, baby prep machine, monitor- all never used) to sell – what’s the best way to go about it? Any favourite platforms, tips for quick sales, or things I should avoid? Would love to hear your experiences!

Struggling

Hi everyone I’m really struggling at the moment. My baby ( 4 and a half months) is just so unhappy so fussy crying all the time. I spend my whole day trying to keep her calm or trying to calm her because she’s having a complete meltdown. She is definitely currently teething which I think is causing a lot of the issues I’m trying Calpol. I’m also trying teething gel and teething toys which I’ve put in the fridge but none of them seem to have much of an effect. I just need a bit of reassurance, a bit of positive thinking any other Mum’s out there having the same experience? I feel so alone in it but I’m sure I’m not and I just keep crying because my happy baby has become so miserable. I always start the day positively but by her 8th or 9th screaming meltdown I literally can’t cope and feel like I need to tap out ! I feel so frustrated and overstimulated plus annoyed that I can’t do much to help her ….i do have some support from parents who live locally and husband in the evenings but it’s still really really hard
