Am I over reacting or no
My dad threw out my breast milk that I pumped yesterday (2oz) I left it in the fridge as I usually give it to my daughter in the morning when I leave for work, however I knew 2oz wasn’t anything for my daughter so I decided to save it in the fridge and feed it to her tomorrow with whatever i pumped today, come to find out my dad threw it away because he thought it didn’t work anymore as the milk separated and he said it didn’t look like it worked.
I’m bothered because it’s now the 3rd time he does it. I’ve told him and showed him before what it looks like and that I have 4 days to freeze it.

Omg I would scream and cry.
Sorry this happened. And not once. Twice. But 3 times?!?
Is there a way to put a paper note rubber-banded to it that says "Do not throw away!! Do not touch!!" And maybe even write down the date and "good until" date. That way he doesn't wonder.
I really hope he was only trying to help but sometimes it's not helpful 😭
And no. You are not overreacting. Pumping is SO HARD and every drop is precious!
Hugs ❤️
Is he losing his memory? Id be furious. Id put a big note that says don't touch to make it obvious to leave it alone if it's the 3rd time and he isn't remembering
I would be very annoyed too, knowing how slow going the pumping was for me (2-3oz is what I'd usually get in one sitting)! Especially if you've explained why to him already before!
I’d be so angry! Throw away his food to see if he likes it 😭 but honestly just tell him to not touch it at all even if he thinks it’s gone bad you’re the one that produced the milk and stored it he has nothing to do with it!

Any suggestions what to get her?

Five month old is still in 0-3
Hey has anyone else had this my five month old barely fits into any 3-6 clothes they all drown her but her 0-3 still fits perfect. She turns 6 months next week she’s hitting all her milestones but I’m wondering did anyone else go through the same? And did they go to 3-6 or just jump to 6-9 because I have seen some do that?

Feeling overwhelmed and down.
Had my baby boy 3 weeks ago now and I feel like I'm heading towards postpartum depression territory :( I feel like I miss my old self, my old life and my old life with my partner. I've wanted a baby for so long and now I feel so overwhelmed by how constant it is all the time and it makes me feel like a failure 😢 how is everyone else coping at the moment?

Support for depression and anxiety
Is there anyway I can get 121 therapy consultation through NHS? I've done self referral (recommended by gp) and the options are group course via Ms teams and silvercloud courses. I want to talk with a therapist and can't get anything more than these plans through hv and gp.
My daughter is 16months old and I'm still struggling with anxiety and ppd.

Guideance on cosleeping..
I’ve recently started cosleeping with my 17 month old but I can’t find any safe sleep guideance on cosleeping at this age? Does anyone know a reliable source to find this?
I follow a cosleeping page on insta but again it all seems to be focused around smaller babies
