Vaccination
I need some opinions please... my first is fully vaccinated no problems. But every vaccine appointment i had just a terrible gut feeling like I didn't want to do it. Now with my newborn im debating on what vaccines to get him. Which ones to delay or if I should do any at all? I feel like they want to give them way to many at the 2-8 month appointments.. and I hear that's when sids happen the most. So I just need some hell and opinions I don't have anyone else to talk to about this stuff.

I personally would not do them. If I knew back then what I know now. I would never allow a vaccine to be given to my child. Best to do more research so you are making an informed decision.
I say trust that mama gut. You're having that feeling for a reason. š
Look up āJust the Insertsā as a starting place if needed
You should read The Vaccine Safety Manual by Niel Z Miller. He gives the history of each disease and vaccine for it. It really solidified our decision not to vaccinate at all

Double pushchair
Can anybody recommend a double pushchair please thatās not too expensive please Iāve had the silver cross wayfarer but itās just so heavy now I need
Rid and the seats are small for my 3 year old.
I have a 2 year old and a 3 nearly 4 year old, I donāt know whether itās worth just getting a single and a buggy board as my 3 year old will still use the pushchair if weāre out a while. Any suggestions would be great.
Thank you xx

Rant..apologies
Why isnāt postpartum depression not talked about enough? Or even just how you will be postpartum. Theres not enough information and support given to you while going through pregnancy or even in general because support systems struggle to understand the concept too. I feel like Iām going insane with how Iām feeling atm. I genuinely have never felt so low. I feel trapped. And why is there no relationship support offered or atleast guide you to the correct people. Iāve tried reaching out to my health visitor but she doesnāt have anything for weeks and suggested I go to one of the support hubs. I donāt drive and my partner doesnāt like me going on the bus with the baby and heās always working. My friends and family have said theyāll support me but havenāt exactly seen the consistency between their words and their actions coming together. I am starting to resent my partner and Iām worrying heās making me depend on him too much to the point where I donāt know if Iām sane anymore. He goes to work, he gets to go golf and when we do stuff together 9 out of 10 times he invites one of his friends to join us. Itās like he doesnāt want to be with me alone. Heās constantly on his phone too. I understand heās just started his own company but thereās no way heās doing job stuff or talking about work the whole evening too. Apologies I need to rant as currently my only conversations are through messages with him or my 3 month old

Clothes question
Ladies recently my little boys clothes have been having random yellow stains on them noticable after a wash idk if im putting the wash on too long or if its the spit up from milk thats causing it as its only around his shoulders or neck where the spit up may have happened that day, no issues with the trousers just frustrating to why it might be happening, has this happened to anyone before?

Angry and upset with social services
Social services have been a part of my life for a while. For the last year we have just been getting the tick boxes ticked. They have zero concerns its "just the process" well they said that our next meeting (today) theyd likely close our case because everything is done. Nope, wrong! Theyve given new goal posts. I am so annoyed! Its taking precious time i have on my day off with my daughter because they keep adding new goal posts (which they've been officially told off for doing 5 times in the past).
I just want them out my life. Im sick and tired of sitting with them every 3 weeks going all finez nothing new, all is well. Shes thriving. Because thats litrally been my life for 12 months. But they keep changing our senior worker and they are the ones that keep adding new goal posts. I just want to scream! My daughter also hates our newest social worker. She hides from her saying mummy i no like, make her leave in a whisper.

My 8 month old has no sleep routine nor eats š
Any mamas with babies aged 6 months + who have absolutely no sleep routine and just sleep whenever they want?š Iāve tried everything to establish a routine, but nothing seems to work, what works is following her lead and waiting till she gets tired, Iām curious to know if this is what other mamas do or if they have a strict wine down routine and how they implement this? Also, my little one barely eats and is still on purees but some days she wonāt eat at all, some days 5 spoons because anything with a thicker texture makes her vomit as one time she had vomit through her nose and mouthš© Iām also terrified of baby led weaning because of choking, so weaning has been stressful! She is constantly teething though so that could be a reason, at 8 months she has 6 teeth š I keep seeing these babies eat full on 3 meals and snacks by 8 months and I feel like Iām failing š„ŗ Any advice or tips for babies with strong stubborn personalities who like doing everything on their own terms? Xx
