My daughter started nursery this week and right now she's wide awake! She went to sleep at 8pm so she's had about 5 hrs sleep!

I'm exhausted I feel I can't do this anymore 😞 My 18 day old has all of a sudden changed and is refusing to nap in the day. She tired herself out and was sleeping in the night but she's decided to not take her next nap. I've done everything and she's wide awake, I don't know what to do at this point and there's…

My LG is turning 10 months on the 10th. In the last month, she's waking more frequently in the night, and some seem to be night terrors. Is anyone else experiencing the same? This is hitting hard as she used to wake only 1-2 times in the night. Now she wakes every 1-1.5hrs. I'm really struggling with my anxiety due ...

5 weeks old and over birth weight. Feeding well in day plenty of wet dirty nappies. Nobody ever told me to stop waking overnight, but friends have told me that they have been told to stop when over birth weight by midwives etc. I want to sleep longer lol but will do what’s best for baby

My first didn't like bottles. He tried the Avent and I forget which others.

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 LO is almost 10 months, but hasn’t crawled yet. How’s it going for everyone else? She’s a bit towards lower percentile weight-wise. All this is making me anxious.

My partner is so careless when we put the baby to sleep. During the day she’s pretty used to the sounds around the house (doing dishes, the news on the tv, some chatting) but at night time she’s very used to a calm, quiet environment. My partner works away from the home for 2 weeks and then is home for 2 weeks. When...

Hi guys, my 1 month old is wide awake at night after feeding. I feel guilty putting him back in the next to me when he’s awake and not attending to him but i need my sleep 😴 should I be entertaining him m?

Future first time mama to a July baby! I have nursery furniture coming tomorrow and the crib we are getting also turns into a full sized bed. Since baby will be sleeping in our room in a different bedside crib for the first months of her life, should we use the full sized bed feature for the nursery in case one of u...

But would like to do 1 in evening to free up my time for toddler But like why is being able to say my baby is EBF such an important goal in my own head? Like what does that give me?

Anyone experiencing frequent wake ups, like crying wake ups with baby on their belly? It’s too early in the night for her to want a feed, and when I pick her up her eyes are shut so it’s like she’s not even fully awake. I’ll resettle and transfer her and then like 10-15mins later after she’s rolled over again she’ll...

So what do you parents do when your child simply just refuses to listen to ANYTHING . My daughter is 10 and I was window shopping going to buy her a smart watch . I asked my daughter if she liked it and wanted one and if she’d keep it on and not take it off . Then she asks if she can play the games on it during rece...

I go back to work on the 14th and don’t want to deal with breast pumping at work. It’s just too much of a headache honestly. But I’m not sure how to *stop* breast pumping. I assume I can’t do it cold turkey? I leak too much if I go too long without pumping. Do I just space it out longer and longer until I don’t need...

My lo is asking for feeding every 2-3 h during night time and she is 10 weeks 🥲 I keep hearing around babies at this age sleep almost all night but I still keep waking up every 2 h .. Am I the only one?

I know it’s waterproof, that’s not what I’m asking.

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?

I had an emergency c-section in December and I'm trying so hard to be positive but I hate my section self. I think it looks horrific on me. It's not my body and I find it really repulsive. I was a size 18 before pregnancy but I've lost all the weight I gained in pregnancy plus more and it just keeps looking worse an...
