ITS ALWAYS MY FAULT
So I've noticed a pattern when it comes to my baby daddy.
If he don't remember
Failed to notice
Didn't understand
Didnt check
Failed to act
IT SOMEHOW BECOMES MY FAULT
When I try to accommodate his messed up perspective he calls me or my actions dumb. I don't ever feel like arguing with him cause he'll never listen cause HES "I KNOW IM RIGHT" type person
THEN HE'S ALWAYS SCREAMING ABOUT WOMEN ONLY WANTING OBEDIENCE FROM MEN

I understand. Just left my ex. He was just like that. Was with him for almost 2 years. Don’t waste your time . Just leave. It’s gets worse if you tolerate his behavior
It’s never your fault. My baby daddy is the same exact way especially when he’s drunk. Don’t beat yourself up on what he says about you! Your an amazing mamma

Breastfeeding or Bottle feeding?
I'm curious to hear people's experiences and perspectives on breastfeeding versus formula feeding.
For those who chose to breastfeed, what were the main reasons behind your decision? And for those who chose formula feeding, what influenced your choice?
For those who've done both, or switched from one to the other, I'd love to hear about that experience too.
Was it personal preference, health reasons, convenience, the bonding aspect, feeding challenges, or something else entirely?
I'm genuinely interested in understanding the different reasons behind people's choices and experiences. No judgement whatsoever – just curious to hear different perspectives, particularly as I'm navigating my own feeding journey at the moment.

How soon after giving birth did you start going out with baby ?
Baby is only a few days old and hubby is doing drop off and stuff with the toddler so these no rush for me to go out but not sure when I fancy going out!

Extremely sensitive baby
Struggling at the moment with baby getting very over stimulated when we go out anywhere. Little one is 8 months and has always been very sensitive and gets overstimulated easily. She is breastfed so boob has always been her comfort, but recently she refuses to feed when out and about because shes so distracted with the world, but then has full blown meltdowns because shes hungry/tired. I've tried nursing covers, moving to a quieter place, giving her something to fiddle with but nothing seems to work and I feel completely lost that i'm not able to calm her down and comfort her with boob. We went to our first playgroup today, something I've avoided until now due to my own social anxiety and although it was lovely, I came away feeling really upset and defeated because as much as I know every baby is different, its heartbreaking seeing every other baby happy, smiling and playing or breastfeeding like a dream when my baby spent the entire time wanting to be cuddled and rocked and then had to leave early because she was getting upset from all the noise and was tired but unable to sleep.
She will be starting nursery in a few months and i'm really worried that she wont settle well there as shes always been a terrible napper, very clingy with me and has gotten very used to 1 on 1 play, whereas the nursery she will be going to has 1 staff member per 3 children. I desperately want to enjoy the last little bit of my maternity leave and have lots of fun with her out and about, and also get her used to busier environments and different faces but recently every time we have gone out she has got so upset and I feel guilty. We just had 2 lovely chilled days at home and she was the happiest she's ever been so i feel torn!
Ot doesnt really help that unfortunately we've had several people comment on how grumpy she is or be judgemental about how we 'pander' to her and its amplified my anxiety so much and made me feel like a really crappy mum.
Has anyone else who has experienced a super grumpy/sensitive baby got any tips for going out? When did it start to get better? And how did you ease the transition into nursery?

Awake periods
How many hours are your 7 week olds awake in a 24 hour period? I feel like my baby boy is sleeping too much.

6pm Naps?!
My little girl (15 weeks) has started falling asleep for what would be her 3rd nap of the day (normally) at around 5:30/6pm. 😴 I’ve been working on winding her down from 7pm - bath, feed, bed, but when she actually decides to fall asleep is anyone’s guess. 🤷🏼♀️
The last two nights she has taken a lot longer to settle, and I’m pointing the finger at this 6pm nap that she seems to desperately need. I don’t want to keep her awake and overtired, so would moving her bedtime to 6pm work or potentially bite me in the backside during the night/early hours? Generally she only wakes once between 2 and 4am for a feed/change. 🤞🏼
I’m well aware the 4 month regression is potentially round the corner anyway so I might be deeping this unnecessarily, but any tips are welcome!
