Hello, first time mum and born yesterday. She sleeps all through the day but is just screaming throughout the night, she won’t latch (only for like 5 mins a day) - any suggestions?
My baby is 5 months old and she’s starting to scoot and roll, I bedshare and it’s starting to make me nervous. I’ve tried keeping her asleep in her crib or playpen but it only lasts for about 10-15 minutes before she wakes up Any tips? First time mom
For those formula fed baby mums - how many oz / mls are you feeding your baby at 5/6 weeks old and how often? I’m getting so many mixed messages about how much I should be giving him I’m now not sure what’s right! Any advice welcome, thank you!
My baby keeps putting her hands in her mouth and when she sleeps she keeps waking up and being fussy
Anyone else feeling guilty giving baby formula rather than breastfeeding? My baby is 1 week old today.
This past week has been so hard, I am exclusively breast feeding and baby has been up every night for hours on end wanting feeding/comfort. I am absolutely exhausted and I just can’t see the end goal of a few hours a night in sight. Please help
My little one is almost 3 weeks and currently drinking 5oz formula (normally between 3 and 5 anyway) recently he’s been wanting bottle after bottle. He’s giving me all the hunger cues and just crying for a bottle. I’m so worried I’m overfeeding him but of course don’t want to not give him it when he’s hungry. Has an...
I’m left really torn after our 1-year review as HV was adamant that I sleep train LO who is 10 mo because I told her how he wakes up 5-6 times a night to the point that I co-sleep. Co-sleeping doesn’t guarantee enough sleep though as 7/10 nights he’ll be waking up and needing help to relatch (as I’ve got small breas...
Hi mummas. Just after some honest answers as I’ve heard so many stories. How did breastfeeding affect your boobs and how they looked & felt, both immediately and long term. Thanks
Just asking because it's the last thing we haven't gotten yet. Our local Walmart doesn't have any. I'm going to drag hubby to target tomorrow morning to see what we can find
Something I've never really thought about but it's looking like I will have a c section but really want to breast feed! Is this possible? Can I request skin to skin in the operating room or is this a no? Please help!
Hi moms, I recently started breastfeeding my LO who’s 8wks and I feel pain around my nipple which looks quite reddish. I want to know if this is normal and how long is the pain suppose to last for . I’m a FTM
Does anyone have a drastically different parenting style to their partner? I’m very much a feed on demand, contact naps and cuddles type of mum; I feel like it physically pains me to hear baby cry. However my partner seems happy to let baby cry it out for in her crib if he’s trying to get her to nap, I honestly hate...
Y'all, this is the dumbest, most arbitrary technicality that I absolutely cannot get past. All I am trying to do is update the contact information on my resume. However, the non-pdf version apparently didn't save, so I only have a PDF version. Google is no help, as it prompts me to paid subscriptions...I just need t...
4 days post partum and I've had less than 8 hours sleep since Monday. LO is fine in the day, sleeps in her moses basket, wakes for nappy and feed etc but the last night, she will NOT settle. I've had her on me for hours whilst I've sent my partner to sleep so that I can try and get my first sleep stint in tomorrow (...
