Sleep - 6 months- help needed!

My little boy is nearly 6 months old and has been a really good sleeper up until around 6 weeks ago. He used to sleep through the night, usually from 9pm until 7am, but now he’s waking up so frequently!
He won’t settle to sleep unless he’s lying on me, and the only place he seems to properly settle is in my bed rather than his next to me crib. 🥺
I’ve just started weaning him too, so I’m wondering if that could be playing a part.
Has anyone else been through this? What helped get your little one’s sleep back on track? Are there any routines, bedtime tips or things that worked for you?
I know sleep changes are normal, but I’m really struggling with the broken nights and would love to hear what’s worked for other mums. ❤️

What is this?

Hi! I got this bathtub for my two month old off Amazon and recently it's been leaving like this rust looking marks behind on the insert for it. What is it and what bathtub would you recommend? More pics of it in the comments

Brest feeding

I am starting to have upper back pain from breast feeding any moms have any recommendations for me. My babygirl is 5 months

Babies with colic and silent reflux

I am a first-time mum with a nearly a week old baby girl we found out two weeks but she had colic and silent reflux!

Has anyone else experienced this? And if so, how are you coping? What are we doing? As we have done everything you could think that we’ve also been told to do😢

Night time nappies

My son is 5 in February, and currently still in night time nappies. He's been out of day nappies since he was 3 and a bit. Still an occasional accident or "forgetting" he needs to go, but 9/10 he's there no problem.

He takes himself to the loo when he wakes up in the morning usually - but then puts the old nappy back on 🙈 I had hoped to be able to try no night time nappies before he went to school in September, but with our second born arriving mid September it just didn't work out. And in any case, his night time nappy is still soaked every morning, there's no way I could take the nappy away yet.

My mom and MIL keep going on that we were out of nappies fully by 3 - but I just can't see how to get there!!

What's everyone else doing?!

Could this be tongue tie...?

I got my 5 month old weighed the other day and she has only put 1lb 4oz on between 30/07 and 13/10. My health visitor keeps dismissing me and telling me not to worry as she "was never a big girl anyway" (she was born 29 May at 8.5lbs/81st centile, and has dropped to the 5th centile at 11lb15oz?!)

She's always had long and frequent feeds, which because I know no different I didn't think was odd, obviously slow weight gain, I maybe have a slight lipstick nipple when she unlatches, and occasionally she pulls off frustrated and then latches back on. No other symptoms that I have picked up on, and all the midwives told me she had a good latch and was feeding well, so it's not even occurred to me until her new weigh in that there may be something wrong!

My question is, is there anything other symptoms I need to look out for? Did anyone's baby turn out to have tongue tie with similar/less symptoms than usual (no pain etc)
How hard was it to get help?

My GP has also said that tongue tie is so over diagnosed these days, so I am wanting to go in with ammo if I need it😅

Hates carrier and pram

Finding it impossible to get out as my little one just wants to be carried. He used to like the pram, then hated it and only liked the carrier and now hates both. He will scream inconsolably and only likes being carried outwards but this isn’t possible when I’m alone but I’m going stir crazy. He’s 3 months so too small for the proper pram seat or facing outwards in the pram. Any advice?
