Changing nappies

Anyone got any advice for changing nappies? My little boy scream bloody murder every time and get himself in such a state.

Night feeds

When are you feeding baby through the night? My LO feeds every 3 hours through the day, so through the night I’ve been setting my alarm to get up and make her bottle, so she’s ready for a feed every 3 hours. But should I just be waiting for her to wake me up? I’m so worried I won’t wake up if she’s crying, or I wo...

Anyone's baby on 8oz??

My baby is currently on 7oz and has been for a little while. This seems like a lot to me but I've followed their direction. The last dew days they keep crying after every feed indicating they want more. Surely 8oz is way too much at this age?

Talkative but not communicating—should I worry?

My toddler knows lots of words, sings lots of songs from her nursery, and chats all day on her own, but when it comes to communicating needs, she just grabs my hand and leads me instead of using sentences. We’re a bilingual household and try to speak to her in English, but she still prefers single words or gestures...

Latch

Has anyone else struggled 10 days into breastfeeding? My lo has been latching well until tonight, he had a bottle of expressed breast milk earlier on today and now I feel like his latch is too shallow.

Crying for long periods

Anyone else's babe cry for long periods at night? Around the same time my baby cries about 7pm every night without fail. I've tried everything and although she does have gut issues, in my heart I don't think that's what is upsetting her. She's absolutely fine all day until bed time then cries for a few hours until s...
