Thank you! We should refer to you as The Creator from now on.
shes 9 months in 5 days but I absolutely am not ticking that box until I have to
Thanks for the new thread!
House is in chaos because we're rearranging the upstairs so baby L's current room will become a joint office for me and Mr L for when I go back to work in February. We're moving him tomorrow so I'm expecting some bad naps/disturbed sleep while he gets used to the new surroundings. At least I won't have to worry about him waking the neighbours by banging on the wall any more
TF is 10 months in 10 days and that has crept up on me like a very creepy unexpected thing. 5 and her currently holding hands while they sleepThank you! We should refer to you as The Creator from now on.

(obviously she has no idea about this and the curator of the cute is actually 5 
)Oh this is too cute! What a lovely momentTF is 10 months in 10 days and that has crept up on me like a very creepy unexpected thing. 5 and her currently holding hands while they sleep
Yeah this is what we do with TF’s bedroom (although she’s not in it yet) think it’s a good solution as the room doesn’t get used for both uses at the same time - just you get more use out of the room. Hope the shifty around goes smoothly.Thanks for the new thread!

I keep reading advice about our current sleep
Problems and it’s like “try make sure they get the calories they need throughout the day.” HOW. He will not take any more milk or eat anymore than he already does. The other night he needed three bottles through the night. Crazy to me he used to go without for 10-12 hours now we can barely go 4 but he point blank refuses any extra during the day

then she wakes up 3 times a night for a feed. Dreading going back to work next week as I feel like a binafide zombie
Baby bandit is in a bottle-refusing mood recently but I've weirdly discovered that if I quietly sing the chorus from Confetti by Little Mix he'll open his mouth and happily accept the bottle....babies are strange 
I nearly ticked 9-12 months in the poll and then remembered that's just his clothes size and he's still only 7 months old

Still unsure if I want to try latching this baby or not, definitely got milk in my boobs, I just feel bad because she's already struggling with a bottle, feel like breast would be even harder for her?
If you do it at a time when she's calm and not too hungry then it wouldn't hurt to give it a go and see what she thinks - do some skin to skin cuddles and then shift her down and have a go at latching. If she's not interested she'll soon let you know, and then you can go back to cuddling
Me too. The nights are long.I soooo wish we had an actual WhatsApp group
I’m on the other side of the world so am here for when you are up in the night!
Baby Wood gifted me the most enormous poo tonight, then peed while I cleaned him up. Still not got the knack of that manoeuvre without going through an additional nappy and an outfit change.
Baby has slept in her crib for a solid 1.5hrs tonight 
We’re 4mo down the line and a girl and I often go through additional nappies, sometimes even two lmao, it’s just typical when they go as you’re changing
My baby is absolutely full of cold and I feel so bad for him 
My husband also has covid so I don’t want to let him near the baby just in case he doesn’t have it already and make things worse. I wish I could take it for him.
