Sore back and neck- feel like grandma

Is everyone else feeling this too?? 8 weeks pp and my back and neck feel destroyed from feeding rocking and carrying the baby! I try and stretch a little but its so hard to get the time to do it. I feel like 100 years old!!

Is his stomach normal?

My little boy is 2.5 weeks old. His stomach is very “balloon” looking and skin looks stretched.. Can anyone tell me if they think it looks normal or needs looking at? He’s solely breastfed but does sick up quite a bit…
Thanks (one anxious tired mum 🙁)

4 year old boy

My son is very active. Always jumping here and there. He is a ray of sunshine. Today when he was playing around the iron cot he hit his face on it very hardly and his father is taking him on his way to the ER. My mama heart aches so much seeing him crying in pain and hope he doesn’t get a scar from it as it is on his face. I am so scared and feeling lot of hurt myself :( just wanted to vent out.

Newborn trenches

So had my beautiful baby girl a week ago now, me and my partner are having extreme difficulties at night to settle her down to sleep in her crib, she'll literally stay in her cot for 10 mins max and start crying again 😭 we feed her, change her, burp her, stick a hot water bottle in her cot so its warm and put on her night light with white noise and still doesnt work 😭 so me and my boyfriend have to sleep apart and he'll take the baby to the living room and sort her out (feed her, burp her, cuddle her and then she goes to sleep in her nest pod all fine) and then we'll swap shifts basically whilst he goes and catch up on sleep...at this point we are so exhausted bc we try everything to settle her and this seems to be the only thing that works atm 😭🫠🙃 has anyone got any tips or had this problem before? Thankyou ❤️✨️

Pump and dump?

Today is my birthday and I had a glass of white wine at 6 weeks postpartum; do I need to pump and dump my breastmilk?

6 month not sleeping the cot

My 6 month old keeps waking up in the night and will not go back to sleep in his cot but is sleeping on me but I’m not sleeping because I’m scared of something going wrong if I sleep with him. Any idea of what to do to get him to sleep back in cot please

Is my colostrum ok? 😅

I'm 39 weeks tomorrow and I've been collecting colostrum for about 2 weeks now, not every single day but pretty much every other day, it has got more and more every time and easier to collect each time, im now using my wearable breastpumps to collect as its easier and doesn't cause me any braxton hicks or any problems. Anyway the colour of it is like a milky clear colour? I've only seen others online that are like extremely yellow or creamy in colour? I googled it obviously and it said its normal, but I'm looking for real life people to answer if they've had similar looking colostrum? Thanks!
