Toddler sleep regression
My toddler has tonsilitis. He has to go for a tonsillectomy for the past. I’d say nine months he has been waking up throughout the night for no reason I’m exhausted. I really don’t know what to do. I can’t seem to get him to go to sleep. My partner puts him in bed now because he won’t sleep for me then he is waking about 3 to 4 times a night and then he’s awake from 5 am onwards. Anybody else have this issue? I need advice because I am honestly to the point that I’m going to have a breakdown. Im that exhausted 🥺

does he still nap? what time does he go to bed?, sounds like a sleep pressure issue
If its been 9 months its unlikely to be a regression more likely a scheduling issue
My son was the same, he had overly large tonsils (we wernt aware at first) so he had sleep apnea and if he got poorly it made it worse as they would swell. He eventually had them out at 3YO and from that night slept through for the first time ever and has been a dream since. He also had issues with food and choking etc.

Bras after breastfeeding
Can anyone recommend some good bras now that I’ve finished breastfeeding and I’ve got 2 half empty sacks? 🤣
I’ve tried the brands Lounge, Boux Avenue (no underwire) and NEXT (underwire.)
They either slip underneath during the day or towards the middle 🥴💕

How many feeds?
How many feeds is baby having overnight?
Baby is nearly 7 weeks old. He tends to fall asleep downstairs on one of us around 8pm, then when we go up to bed around 10-11pm we give a bottle of formula.
He then sleeps until around 2-3am when he wakes for a nappy change and a breastfeed. He will then go back down until around 5am when we do another change and breastfeed. At this point he gets quite fussy in the next to me so I tend to bring him into bed with me to get more sleep until 7-8am

Freezing hands at night!
Hello everyone,
What are we doing with our little one’s hands at night? Her nursery was at 18.5 degrees last night and she has a vest, a sleepsuit and her 2.5 tog sleeping bag but when she woke up this morning her little hands were freezing cold even tho her chest was warm!
I always feel extremely bad when I pick her up to cuddle in the morning and those little hands are freezing. I know some people are using the built in mittens of the sleepsuit but it doesn’t work for her because she self soothes during the night by sucking her hands so having them covered wouldn’t work for her!
Anyone else in this situation?

Diapers
I have a 20m old and a 2 month old. Both boys. My 20m old is in size 5 daytime and overnight diapers. My 2m is in size 1. What are we all doing to help with peeing through? Both children pee through their diapers at night (my 2m gets changed during his 3am feeding). I make sure both are always pointed down. do I need to go up a size? I’m at a loss.

Struggling to read cues
I'm a 1st time Mum and my boy is just over 4 weeks. I feel like I'm still struggling to read his cues. It feels like the time between me realising hes hungry and him having a full meltdown is 2 seconds. I feel awful every time he cries. Am I being too harsh on myself? Do babies just cry and its fine and I need to just relax. At what point did you feel like you knew what your baby wanted?
