She would normally only have about 30 mins but she is still asleep now (has been for three hours) so I deffo don’t think she will be having another nap tonight before bedtime!
 
Baby bandit is very long but slim and he's just between 2 and 3 at the moment (16 weeks). Sorry if this is obvious but are the front tabs tucking round his sides really firmly? Baby bandit is quite a wriggler and if the front tabs aren't fully tucked round they move and then he leaks.
 
After the victory of a proper bottle yesterday... todays hes refused half his feeds.... lowest day so far... we now have some laxatives so hoping once hes mord regular his tummy feels better and hopefully he goes.... i honestly feel at wits end...

We usually use Aldi 3’s but bought some Tesco 3’s as we were in there the other week and had leaks 4 days out of 5! I’ve donated the rest of the pack and gone back to Aldi. I wasn’t keen on Lidl 2’s, overall we’ve found Aldi to be the best although Tesco 1’s and 2’s we had no issue with.
 
Oh god, that’s good to know! I may go to aldi 3s because I’m so out of options!

Worth noting that pee never leaks, only poop, which makes me think it might just be her
 
I can’t even begin to explain how hard it is to change a poo explosion in a hotel room where literally everything is white

TF had her first poonami in for ever in a hotel room at the weekend. It went through to the mattress protector - totally minging having to go and ask for new sheets. Never in my life.

Does anyone here bedshare with baby lying on them? My boy goes down for naps in the day really well in the bassinet and for the first stretch of the night but after that we have false starts continuously so have resorted to bed sharing. He won’t sleep on his back next to me in the cuddle curl but will sleep happily on me. I’ve been following cosleepy on Instagram for resources but just wondering if anyone else does it here and how it’s going for you?
 
Does anyone’s baby get really hyper in the run up to bed time she’s bloody manic here, she’s knackered ya can tell but she’s insane lol
Yes, we call it power hour over here! Usually the last hour before bed he goes crazy. Especially with his sensory toys, it’s another level… so cute and funny though but omg it’s tiring now he’s on the move. It’s so easy to get my 10,000 steps in the day lately
 
So I don’t and didn’t even know this was a thing. I just checked her Instagram and it’s got amazing tips. I wish I had found this when she was tiny as she loved to sleep on my chest, and I didn’t sleep with her like that because I was too scared. I wish one of my antenatal appointments focused on this because my god it would have helped in those early days. Thank you for sharing

Baby has his first tooth poking through now
I’m honestly surprised about it because he’s seemed absolutely fine and his normal self all day. I knew it was coming very soon as I could see the white line of it about to poke through but it’s def poking through now !
I think I read it can take 5-10 days for it to fully come up? Does this mean the worst is still to come ?
 
It’s so hard that all we get told is that it’s dangerous and not to do it but sometimes you just have to do they may as well support us in how to do it safely!! It’s so normal in loads of countries still

Generally she has no problem with the cuddle curl position but there has been a time where she wouldn’t let me put her down and so I lay with her on my chest and then after ten to fifteen minutes I transferred her on to the bed for cuddle curl because I thought she would roll off my chest in the night. Have you already tried that? I didn’t actually know chest sleeping was an option to be honest.
 
I feel that the bottom teeth appeared with no real fussiness or pain. Top teeth have just appeared and the lead up to them breaking through has been tough. Fussy, cranky, grumpy for a few days but now they are through and coming down we are back to our normal self (just with even more added dribble ).
