How old are they? Where do they sleep?

With our 1st boy, we spent the first 3 weeks painfully trying to get him to sleep in his moses basket exactly as the lullaby trust says he should but he woke up every 20 minutes at night - there were a lot of tears and not just the baby's. It wasn't until we realised he slept the most on us during the day and gave in to co-sleeping in our bed. That first 4 hour stretch of sleep felt magical. We did co-sleeping for 6 months with safe sleep precautions, then transferred him to a cot in his own room. We went straight to co-sleeping with our 2nd boy, now 5 months and every sleeps much better and longer.

Unfortunately babies don't care about the rulebook. Find what works for your family x

Period

I’ve had my first period at 2 months PP on the 8th of last month. This month on the 8th it hasn’t arrived yet and it’s now the 12th. Is it normal for periods to be irregular at the moment? We’ve been having sex but condoms and there is no way I’m pregnant! I’m freaking out and don’t know what to do. I been getting cramps since the last few days so I feel like it’s coming but the delay is making it harder to know.

Advice on Naturally Inducing Labour!

Hi everyone! Mama here due in December. I know I’m probably going to get some judgement/hate for this but please hear me out.

Im having a lot of problems with my consultant being very dismissive and disrespectful about my concerns and wishes for birth, Im not high risk so im wanting to induce myself naturally as my consultant refuses to let me get an induction until 39+ weeks. Now my baby is measuring almost a month ahead and I feel like it’s pretty dangerous if I let her go for that long with how big she is and I’m not wanting an emergency c-section or a section at all if I can avoid it, so I’d like to try to induce naturally around 36-37 weeks, so I’d like to start gathering tips, tricks and advice to induce labour naturally, what worked for you? What didn’t work? Tell me all the secrets
