Bath time
My little one now hates bath time... she breaths really rapid and kicks her legs constantly throughout, she never looks chilled. I took her out early last night because she went red in the face and cried. Nothing has changed, we use one of the bath inserts bevause she hated the sitting up baths when she was new born. Any tips?

Do you put a warm wet muslin over her while shes in it? That helped our LO fedl more cosy and safe. We also got some suction toys to stick on the side of the bath to keep her occupied or I go in with her
My little girl was the same, I started doing her bath warmer and she enjoys it much more now
My little one hates bath time and always has unfortunately. I've tried to heat the room and her clothes etc but screams like in pain. I've been told some babies are just like that and she should grow out of it
My little one hated the bath too, we were following HV advice to use a specific temperature of water, but she was just too cold. The warmer we made it the more comfortable she was. We also make sure it’s right after a nap and feed, so she’s in a good mood. :)
Omg my baby does this rapid breathing and kicking thing too like what is that 😭
My son was the same then my mum made him a bath warmer than I did (I was like mum that’s too hot, she said don’t be silly look) and he LOVED IT and loves baths now it’s warmer. The temp they recommend used to make him scream now it’s warmer he never wants to get out and screams when it’s time to 😂

Sleeping at 10 weeks pregnant, please help!
Hey Ladies, I’m currently 10 weeks pregnant and haven’t slept properly in around 6 weeks. I had a bad back and hips before being pregnant but always found my bed comfy and the only bed I could sleep on however the last couple of weeks I am waking up after crappy sleep literally unable to move, to the point where some mornings I have to ask my partner to pop home from work quickly or my mum to come round just to get me out of my bed. I’m in constant agony no matter what I do. I’ve tried putting a mattress topper on and even currently have two on there which helps slightly but not enough to not be in agony every morning. I’ve tried a pregnancy pillow that didn’t help. I’ve tried sleeping on multiple blankets that didn’t help. I know this is only going to get worse as I am fairly early but any help would be massively appreciated, I feel like I am at wits end here!

Bed time routine
Hey. How do you all handle bed time?
Do you have a set time you try to get baby asleep by? Do you go to bed when the baby goes to bed? Interested to know all the details!

14 week old/4 month regression?!
The past month, my son has been doing 5 hour stretches at night but recently he’s been needing a feed every 2.5 hours(6oz). He doesn’t wake up crying but instead he thrashes about and digs his face into my body/matress (we cosleep) and that’s how I know he’s hungry. Is this the 4 month regression or what like is he teething?! lol I’m so confused 😭

Colic !!!
My almost 8-week-old has been crying almost the entire night 😭 He hasn’t pooed for a day and only settles when I carry him upright. It feels like colic, but he’s never been like this before. He’s exclusively formula-fed. Has anyone else’s baby gone through something similar at this age? What helped your little one?
