Breastfeeding
Hi everyone! ❤️
I have inverted nipples, and unfortunately, I wasn’t able to breastfeed my first son for very long due to health issues and difficulties with latching.
I know there are pumps and other options available, but I’d love to get some support and advice before my second baby arrives.
Does anyone know of any local breastfeeding support groups or services? I’d also love to hear from anyone who has experience breastfeeding with inverted nipples. Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated! 🫶

How to help baby sleep independently
My little girl is 2 months tomo and I currently have to rock pat and shush her to sleep. If I dont put her to sleep she will stay up and be extremely overtired. I cant even sit and rock she will fuss and cry until I stand up. I see others put their baby in the crib and they fall asleep themselves and mine is not capable of doing that. Its so exhausting and even if shes too young now I would love some advice on other peoples experience on how they moved away from rocking their baby and started encouraging them to fall asleep on their own/using other cues to help them fall asleep. She doesn’t like being swaddled and refuses the dummy she will make faces and gag so they dont help.

Super absorbent nappies
Can anyone recommend super absorbent nappies that also don't cost a fortune?
We've tried ALDI's Mamia and Pampers nappies but as soon as there's thr slightest bit of wetness our girl is screaming and wriggling to get changed

Leaving breastfeeding baby
Has anyone’s baby gone about 5–6 hours without breastfeeding? My baby doesn’t take a bottle or formula, so I’m wondering what happens if I have to leave her with someone for a few hours without me there to breastfeed.
She’s around the weaning stage now, so do you think she would eat some food if I’m not around, or would she maybe accept formula if I’m not there? She absolutely refuses the bottle at the moment.
I’m just wondering how other mums have handled this because I’m a bit worried about leaving her without milk ❤️

Car seat - HELP
So my daughter is turning 1 in November and she’s so tall for her car seat but I know she’s still too young to be in a forward facing one. Her feet have to be in an awkward position and I’m just unsure on what to do.
Does anyone have any car seat recommendations or something else I could be doing to make her more comfortable?
Thank you 💕
