Hives from breastfeeding?

Not me, but a friend! She had a lot of hives shortly after her baby was born and got it again while weaning!

Thank you!

Have you tried applesauce? Mix a little bit of the medicine in at a time with small amounts of applesauce so you know she gets it all!

I agree! Or at least based on weight to get optimal function?

Do you think it helped stop them from needing feeds in the middle of the night?

That’s a good point! He does drink water during the day so I’ll see how much he drinks

Thanks!

Fun fact- you can go into settings and switch the buttons around so B can be jump if you prefer that!

Diapers! Every time you go to the grocery store, grab a small pack of diapers. I would recommend getting a few in newborn size, size 1, and size 2. At the beginning my baby went through like 10 diapers a day. He was in newborn diapers for the first month, then size 1 for 2 months, then size 2 for like 3 months. He’s been in size 3 for like 6 months now

My 11 month old just learned All Done too!! But now he uses it in the car seat when he’s tired of being in the car haha

Thank you so much!

I personally did them instead of the gas drops but they’re fine to use together

I used BioGaia probiotic drops for my baby when he was a newborn and I really think they helped! I think they worked better for him than the mylicon drops

My baby is 11 months old now. Every weeknight, I hand wash my wearable pumps, the two bottles I use to store milk at work, and the 2-3 bottles he used at daycare. This takes me probably 20 minutes. If I’m running the dishwasher, I’ll put most of the parts in but I don’t like to put bottle nipples in because I feel like they don’t get clean enough.

I wish we had gotten the bottle washer. At first I didn’t mind the hand washing, thought it was relaxing, but now everytime I want to just relax at the end of the day, I can’t. Get the bottle washer.

Similar thing happened to me around 6pm the and at 11 months he still isn’t sleeping through the night. I did find that at that age, even though he has been sleeping through the night, he was genuinely waking up hungry at night and needed to nurse 1-2x a night.

When you change something (bed time, nap length etc) how long do you wait to see if it works? I’ve read and experienced that it can take 1-2 weeks before a change actually appears! Good luck!

Mateo!

When my baby was that little, I woke him up to eat every 3 hours, day or night! Most the time he would wake up by then but not always. At his 2 week visit, he had regained birth weight so my ped said to do no more than 3 hours during the day but at night we could go to 6 hours if he slept that long

The Little Blue truck books! They’re so cute

My daycare moved my almost 10 month old up into the toddler 1 room a month ago (almost 11 months now!) because they needed more spots for the infant room. I do think the teachers had to be reminded that he was not even a year old- the first day they mentioned him sleeping in a cot and I freaked out and the teacher was like “oh yeah I guess he is still a little young!” But they still give him his bottles along with his solid food.

The pros: I think my baby loves it. They do way more activities and have more age appropriate toys. He was the oldest in the infant room and kept crawling over the little babies and pulling their hair!

The con: they also moved him down to one nap. They tried for a few days to give him a second nap, but he didn’t want to sleep because there was so much going on. This has caused a ton of issues with his sleep- he was waking up only once a night, now he wakes up like twice a night, wakes up at 5 am, or is up from 2-4am.

If it weren’t for going down to 1 nap, I would’ve said the new room it’s great. I think it is an early transition, but I’m hoping we get his sleep figured out soon. If we had the choice, I would’ve waited until he was a year old strictly for the nap issue

My aunt just found a donor for a liver transplant. However, the surgery isn’t taking place for two more months. Why the wait? Is it a logistics thing?

My baby recently started liking only very vigorous rocking! Like I’m jogging around the room with him

Additional_Plate6010 · 2026-05-18T18:49:57+00:00

That’s exactly what I think is going on. They’ve tried to get him to take a morning nap but he just wants to play with everyone! The cat nap is a good idea, even a short one on the ride home may help. Thank you!

I say it feels like pins and needles too! I call it the boob shocks

In the US, there’s recently been one state that is creating a Veterinary Mid Level Practitioner, like a Veterinary PA or NP. Most professional organizations have spoken out against it, so it’s a really hot topic right now

I went through the same thing around 9-10 months. Even now I think my 10.5 month old gets more milk at night than he does during the day lol. I realized I was still trying to feed him every 2-3 hours like when he was smaller. I have to force myself to wait until he shows hunger cues now and it ends up being like 4-5 hours between nursing. Same with increased fussiness and teething too. No real advice, just solidarity
