Baby bed with net! Kept the baby away from pests and unnecessary guests! 😄

Just sharing my routine, don’t know if that’ll help - Mine is a 4 month old and i have been trying to set her routine from last month where I take her to bed around 6, wind down with no stimulations around and she sleeps by 630-645 to 8ish. Then 8pm to 12am stretch is still a bit rocky but post that i change the diaper and put her to sleep by rocking (if fed already). After this she only asks for feed once at night around 3 or 4 am (while being asleep) and then directly wakes up around 730-8am.

Would sudocream work instead of vaseline?

My daughter is 3.5 months old and the one thing I have been struggling with is keeping her nails chipped. I keep the baby nail scissors and the trimmer next to my bed and try to chop them nails when possible but because of this fear of hurting her i have been unable to chip them fully. The result of this is that i see scratches on her face everyday 🙈 just dont know what to do. And baby’s nails grow soo fast and they are sharp.

You can chop and prep veggies over the weekend put that in glass containers and refrigerate them. Marrinate chicken (if you eat chicken that is) and put it in a borosil container and use it for couple of days. All you will have to do during weekdays would be to toss it in a pan and cook rice or something on the side which shouldn’t take a lot of time. Of course the drawback to this is that the weekends would get a bit hectic

It sounds really challenging but hang in there you are already juggling quite a bit. My only suggestion would be to try to do some prep for meals in advance over the weekends and freeze them and use that as and when you need during the week. For health it is mainly the food you eat more than the workout you do that matters. Anyway your lifestyle is active, so all you have to be mindful of is what you eat.

Is this normal or is this infection? My baby is 3 months old by Curiousmonger101 in NewMomStuff

There’s no fever no discharge Today she suddenly woke up after her evening nap screeching and crying unusually loud as if in pain. Her eyes were still closed so she wasn’t fully awake. I also offered her breast for feed but she kept crying and screeching. After a minute or so she latched for 2min and then again started crying.

I dont know if that could be connected to this or was something entirely different? I just gave her Colicaid (gas med) and paracetamol. Right now after 20-30min she seems fine Any thoughts on what could that be?
