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

My baby has hardly slept all day 😳

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

Venting

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 don’t feel like I can.

Advice

My baby is 2 weeks old and it truly seems like she hates me.
I don’t understand what I’m doing wrong. My husband can easily calm her down but I can’t seem to do the same. She will be totally fine with him and the second he passes her to me, she will start crying.
I’m having a really hard time with it. Any advice?

Sex..

I’m 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 didn’t 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!

Sleep help

My baby doesn’t 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

She’s up a lot in the night. Don’t know if she’s cold, hungry or just being difficult

Anyone else experiencing this?

Last night her longest stretch I think was an hour and a half!!
