What are we doing about baby falling asleep on breast?
I just had my baby on 5/26/26 and he is falling asleep when I try to feed him. I think my mature milk came in today and sometimes he will only feed for 8-10 minutes on one breast and be done.

Is anyone using the Dr Brown Options+ bottles and they constantly leak?! There’s always milk in the vent tube and coming out where the top screws on - pics. I’m losing my mind and can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong.
Things I’ve checked/tried:
-Ni**le is fully ā€˜locked into’ the top ring
-Vent reservoir is fully inserted into the vent tube, and the holes on the reservoir are aligned with the tiny little indent marks on the top of the tube
- top is screwed on correctly/not stripped, and is not over tightened or too loose
- not too much milk in the bottle
- not warming the milk with the vent tube in the bottle
- all the parts are 100% dry when assembling to feed
- bottle is tilted enough so the vent tube end is out of the milk when feeding
- tried next flow size ni**le incase babe is sucking too hard and making a vacuum
Help ?!

What is the ideal bed time for your 10 month old?
My son has been going to bed around 7ish since he was 5/6 month old.

4,5 years ago I lost my mom to cancer.
3,5 years ago I became a mom without my mom.
2,5 years ago I became a single mom after my parter of 10 years cheated on me twice, while I took care of our baby and dogs.
2 years ago I lost my heart dog.
1 month ago I was diagnosed with cervical cancer.
2 weeks ago I turned 40 years old.
Yesterday I had surgery to remove the cancer.
Let me please get the dullest of life’s from now on and soon drink champagne to celebrate becoming 40 and being cancer freešŸ¤žšŸ¼šŸ„ŗ

Looking for advice šŸ™
I am nearing the end of my pumping journey, i have just hit my 6month mark and was producing 160ml each pump 4 times a day, I have been slowly cutting it down and I am now down to two pumps a day (am and pm) the last two days I have got about 60ml (30ml from each breast) I go away Sunday and can only take hand luggage so could really do with not taking them but I am too scared I will get mastitis.
What do people think? ļæ¼

Preemie question.. shes baby number 5 but our first preemi.. born at 32 weeks.. I had preeclampsia and she had a severe lung infection.. she was born April 20 and came home 2 nights ago!
My question is.. I've always breastfed.. my last 2 were exclusively breastfed.. the nicu doctors are saying she needs like neuro pro formula to supplement for development and growth.. bc she misses all that vital nutrients the last few weeks.. my pediatrician agrees and she is very conservative and supports her families not vaxing and is very holistic minded.. I do trust her..
But I dont trust the formulas.. anyone have any experience in this area? She was born 3 lbs 6 ounces and weighs 5 lbs 8 oz.. shes only had my milk the whole time in nicu and is growing great so far

Neurology…?
Our pediatrician called me today and our appointment was 2 days ago. She suggests that I should take my son to see a neurologist because of his ā€œhead lagā€ and he doesn’t push himself up when on the floor to do tummy time. My son was born a month early (naturally-not induced). He turned 4 months old as of the 26th.
Has anyone ever heard of this before?

Hi has anyone had this happen to their baby’s belly button? Should I be concerned?
My baby is 9 days old and his umbilical cord fell off really early, and when we went to get him checked by his pediatrician on Wednesday we mentioned it and also told her how it looked kind infected, she said it wasn’t that it was just because it fell off early but it’s not completely dry.
Well today he had dried blood and a stain on his clothes it didn’t look like much but we then checked again later on and there was more blood ( didn’t take a picture of that) I’m thinking that when he cries he causes it to bleed but idk if that normal or if I should be concerned?
