Use your breast milk! It helps hydrate the skin it also helps with any other skin conditions and baby acne

tubby todd ointment or baby aquaphor works well too

I used coconut oil as my baby had sensitive skin and it worked very well

QV baby
What is going on? He hardly sleeps all bloody night anyway lol but day time is usually okay! He keeps napping for maybe 10 mins, which is usual for him when transferred but usually he would sleep 1-2 hours in our arms! I would say he has slept for about 3 hours total between 10am and 6.30pm! I dont remember this with my first lol

Anyone else feel like they just suck at being a mom on some days?
FTM to a 2 month old and I know this phase is really hard, but it is just beyond words so hard and confusing and frustrating most of the time. And that makes me feel really guilty because I know I have this amazing son who I love so much and none of it is his fault.
I just want to feel like I can soothe him and keep him happy - and most days I donāt feel like I can.

My baby is 2 weeks old and it truly seems like she hates me.
I donāt understand what Iām doing wrong. My husband can easily calm her down but I canāt seem to do the same. She will be totally fine with him and the second he passes her to me, she will start crying.
Iām having a really hard time with it. Any advice?

Iām really not interested at all 8 weeks post partum and my husband has been asking. I had a traumatic birth with forceps, an episiotomy and a small tear in vagina. We didnāt really have sex during pregnancy and that was fine as we were both a little weirded out by it!
I just wanted to check if others have felt the same!

My baby doesnāt nap longer than 30-40 minutes - still on 4 naps a day.
She is EBF but we have started weaning and trying to introduce a bottle of formula as worried she might be hungry
Sheās up a lot in the night. Donāt know if sheās cold, hungry or just being difficult
Anyone else experiencing this?
Last night her longest stretch I think was an hour and a half!!
