Mylicon
My baby has been extremely fussy since turning 3 weeks. I think a lot of it has to do with her premature digestive tract. I think she has trapped gas, acid reflux, and just learning how to poop. She’s been tested for dairy allergy and that came back negative. We started to use Mylicon prior to feedings and we noticed a significant difference with her fussiness. Any moms out there who have used Mylicon? Is there any big negative to using it? We have a doctor’s appointment coming up but just curious to hear from other moms.

I’ve had good luck with it as well! My son has been getting gassy/fussy from 2ish weeks till now (almost 6 weeks) and it does make a difference. Our pediatrician was fine with us using it.
I haven’t tried gripe water but I think that’s supposed to be helpful too?
I’ve used it with both my kids! No negatives or downsides at all. My first lived off it for the first 4-6 months. lol Our pediatrician told us you can’t really overdose on them. If you gave them too much it might give them a bit of diarrhea but that’s it!
lol well good to know you done it with every feeding and your babies are thriving. There is a max dose per 24 hours based off age/weight of baby but I think its hard to go over the max if your baby is feeding every 3-4hrs

When did you cut your baby’s hair for the first time?
My little boy is 14 months old, and has gorgeous curly hair, but it’s starting to get quite long in the back. He has a natural baby mullet going on 😂
I don’t want him to lose his baby curls, but I also don’t want him to have a scruffy rat tail 🙈

Second bubba my first was completely different. Tips to get newborn to sleep at night in next to me, I’ve tried everything she just wants to latch on all night(breastfeeding) I’ve tried white noise, rockit zed, sleep sack, swaddle ect. I don’t like co sleeping it makes me feel uncomfortable and also due to loss of 4 year old.

Washing clothes
When do we stop washing new clothes before baby wears them?

Bath
How are we bathing our babies now that they are ALOT larger and more wriggly than when they were first born? I currently use the bath in the picture, but my girl now sits independently and keeps wriggling and sitting up and nearly falling out of this now. What's everybody using now? Unsure what the best upgrade is and what is available? Shes still wobbly when sitting so would hate for her to not have anything in case she flops over and bangs her head in the bath. TIA

Marriage problems
I have a 7 month old baby and me and my husband are first time parents. We’re both always stressed and I’m dealing with ppd and ppa. We’re are constantly bickering which turns into fights at least 3 times a week and I’m so tired of it. I’m hoping this is just a rough patch and things will get better but sometimes I think about leaving him and now I can’t get that idea out of my head. Has anyone else gone thru major relationship problems after having a baby?
