Birthclub: July 2023

My husband and I have hired a FDW to care for our newborn. She is currently taking care of the baby in the day and I play with the baby during her awake windows in the day (around 30-45 mins per 3 hrs per day). During this time frame she does her daily chores which includes hand washing baby’s clothes, washing milk bottles, etc. My husband has already returned to work and I am still on maternity leave. Can I check if it is reasonable to let her take the baby for night feeds on weekdays too? Background: She does NOT have to do household chores like laundry, cleaning and cooking as we have help (MILs + another helper) to do so and it has been made known to her that it is not required and not part of her job scope. Sometimes she helps out with ironing and folding of our clothes but that is to her own discretion and done voluntarily. Her current job scope includes bathing and feeding/burping the baby, hand washing baby’s clothes and swaddles, washing milk bottles, making baby sleep, etc. She is hired solely to take care of the baby and we take the baby on Friday and Saturday nights for night feeds. She also has Sundays off.

She cries murder if I put her in her cot or rocker. She is 2 months old. What should I do? My arms and back are tired ! #advicepls #firsttimemom #pleasehelp

Hi mummies do u have any idea for childcare that can accept stoma baby?

#advicepls is it normal for 2 month old baby boy without any wet diapers for 6 hours ? He was sleeping throughout, milk intake is lesser after the vaccination too.

My baby is 9 weeks old and can easily sleep 7 to 10 hours through the night. Should I wake him up for milk?

Doctor said it's not more than 5cm and it might go off but we were worry Anyone encounter such issue it seem to be bigger

How do I know whether it's period or lochia? And how much flow or colour of blood is normal?#firsttimemom #pleasehelp #advicepls
