The smiliest baby I’ve ever seen. Loves gripping The smiliest baby I’ve ever seen. Loves gripping and holding anything. Play gyms are used very much in this household. Love this wooden one from @hessspielzeug and organic play mat from @fabelabdk 

Also started doing topless tummy time in @comfykoalas nappies to get more of a grip on the surface for rolling over. 🌈

Leap = no sleep. Sleep progression, not regression Leap = no sleep. Sleep progression, not regression. 😅 We just got out of a streak waking every 1-3 hours overnight. Coincided with growth spurt + learning to sit upright. That was brutal for mama and dad. Back normal 4-7 hour sleep stretches and linking own sleep cycles over a 12 hour period without my help! 😮‍💨

I never thought I’d say this but I miss carrier naps! Used to be the only way we could get long day time naps. We rarely do it as I’ve mastered putting my baby to sleep in a bassinet thanks to @chantal.cohen.sleep and @milkmumsco for expert advice on sleep and feeds. 

Wearing the beautiful @bumpsuit armadillo carrier. Enjoying this phase while I can hold the extra weight!
I read that reading to babies increases their IQ. I read that reading to babies increases their IQ. I try to do it twice a day, in between a feed. It’s a nice way to rest and digest too! 

Lots of time spent in our @iltutto Chelsea chair. I wish I got one as soon as I gave birth instead of building a stack of pillows on the bed. My back was on fire from poor posture breastfeeding and burping, swaying and putting to sleep.

I’ve learned how to be more mindful of my multit I’ve learned how to be more mindful of my multitasking. Pumping in a relaxed way is best! But sometimes we need to get things done. I now start each session with a quick massage and meditation to help milk flow. Even if I need to tasks done, I do it slowly and mindfully, making sure my nervous system is calm.

The @Momcozy Breast Pump S12 Pro has a double sealed flange for a more comfortable fit, is quiet and has a long battery life making it efficient for multiple pumping sessions. My milk flow has adjusted and so sneaking in a few pump sessions a day has helped bring it back up.

The @momcozy pumping bra is very comfortable to wear all day, is supportive and helps to pump better without leaks.

Spent the last 2 weeks cracking our sleep regressi Spent the last 2 weeks cracking our sleep regression and being strict about wake windows and sleep environment - something I knew nothing about before. Baby would sleep in random places around the house! We would drag a bassinet to wherever we were. It used to work. Sleeping through the night was just a stroke of luck. 

We used to bounce on a ball, shhhh and pat the bum for 30min until we feel deep sleep on us then we put the baby down. 

After working with a sleep coach, we have now taught our 4 months old to self settle without patting or movement. Laying down awake and hand firmly pressing on chest to mimic the tight hugs we give while holding upright. From a baby who could only fall asleep held upright, we can now lay down wide awake and fall asleep in the bassinet. We’ve had to change sleeping surfaces 4 times to find the right one! And on good days, we get a long stretch of sleep. There are still challenging days of night time wakes every 2-3hours.

Now we are just working on those dreaded day time catnaps and linking sleep cycles! 

Toys were added inside bassinet when baby woke! 😁
Trying to have some fun while waking the baby up t Trying to have some fun while waking the baby up to make up for our wild nights. 🫠😭😅🙃🤪 it’s these precious moments that momentarily make me forget what we just went though the night before and make it all worth it 😬 

I was dancing to Finesse on my earphones 😅
Our special place. I dreamed of having a space lik Our special place. I dreamed of having a space like this where I get to bond and observe my baby thrive independently in a safer space. Also prevents Willow from sharing squeaky toys! This @dreambabysafety playpen converta gate is going to grow with our family. The panels were easy to adjust to fit our space and made of sturdy metal. It can pretty much stand on its own but we secured it to the wall.  #@dreambabysafety #dreambabysafety
I’m all about getting as much comfort as I possi I’m all about getting as much comfort as I possibly can. The @growbright pillow was my favourite when I was pregnant and it’s still being hugged every night now. 

If anyone tells you you don’t need a nursing pillow, I say otherwise! I’m fact I am collecting nursing pillows for different areas of our house now that I’m having to feed twice as much to bring my supply back up. Having a pillow that attaches to you makes it just a little easier to adjust and move about. 

We’re transitioning to a cot soon and just set up our mattress. How difficult is it to move baby from co-sleeping bassinet to a cot in their own room? I’m so scared 😭🫠
