March 2025 Babies 🇬🇧

Can someone please tell me some magic to helping our babies with HF&M. My little boy saw every hour last night, had 30 mins nap, and has already woken twice despite regular pain relief alternated between calpol and ibuprofen, we’ve got anbesol and difflam but nothing is helping him be comfortable enough to fall into deep sleep 😩 I can’t have another sleepless night, my patience for the constant crying is wearing so low

13days late on my period - Pregnancy tests done all come out negative - Usually I’m never this late - Feeling on and off nauseous and period type pains that come and go - Not sure what’s going on.. has anyone else experienced this Dr now sent me for a blood test to check for pregnancy that way

My 18 month old has suddenly become really fussy and is throwing the biggest tantrums ever after nursery. He is drooling more and tugging his ear a bit. Has anyone else experienced teething at this age yet? If so did it affect your LO’s mood? Hard to know if it’s teething, dealing with big emotions or if he’s unwell. Temperature is fine but he did have his vaccinations a week and a half ago…

Over the last couple days my son has started telling us when he's done a poo. I guess this is the first sign of starting to be ready for potty training! What other signs are we looking for? And if you've already got to this stage what are you doing? 🙂

Anyone else experiencing this:

• all of a sudden waking up between 5-5.30am daily. (Usually goes back to sleep but not for the last few weeks. Just screams until we get him. Seems behavioural more than anything)
• fighting naps/bedtime. Usually we just pop him in his cot and he turns over and off to sleep but last few days he’s been really fighting going down and just wants to cuddle more or be around us.

The early wakes is what’s affecting us the most. He’s not waking up ready to start his day. He’s still tired.

He goes to bed usually around 7pm. Naps 12.30-2ish Mon-Fri he’s in nursery I fear the first wake window is too long but nursery have their routine and won’t put him down earlier as they all go sleep together in a room.

Food as well - he’s not eating as much or has a few spoons and just keeps turning his head away. I can see he wants to self eat more but I’m struggling to let him with the mess 😬 he’a generally good with food once he gets a taste of it but sometimes it’s just point blank refusal.

I have a 4m old too so it’s soooo exhausting.
