Baby does not want to sleep alone.
Hello Mama's, My little one is currently 2 months. I'm looking after her by myself in the day and I need a little advice on how to let the baby sleep on her own for daytime naps. Each time I set her down she will cry out. She only wants to sleep when she's carried. I understand that she feels safer sleeping on me but she's getting a little heavy for me. Swaddling, the traditional baby swing and the rocking crib doesn't work. Does anyone have any advice please?

Twin cot options
Hi, any twins parents here? I’m expecting my twins in June and I’m looking around for a baby cot, would like to ask what other twin parents got for their baby cot. Appreciate the help!
So tired but husband unable to take care of baby
I am first time mum btw, husband works in the day so I take care of baby in the day and at night we share the responsibilities. However hubby can't make the baby sleep, can't feed the baby, the only thing he can do is change baby diaper and so everything else I have to do myself. For your info, husband can't make baby sleep because his "tactic" is to stuff pacifier into baby screaming mouth and that's it. I tell him to carry baby and rock him, but he just do like a robot and baby screaming like no tmr and I have to take him back. Thought to let him practice more but after a few days he show me his arms saying baby gave him rashes so he gonna try other method. He tries putting baby in those movable cot and push it and seems like a bit working, though takes very long, but after a few days he say his arms and leg breaking with this way. In the end always end up i put baby to sleep. Feeding milk also the same. Baby always screams when he feeds. He very robot, don't know how to soothe baby, just take out bottle when baby arch his back and stuff it back in his mouth when he screams. Then tell me baby don't want to drink. I thought of just asking him to change bb diaper only and wash bottles, but then he will be deprived of learning and bonding with baby. What to do? Haiz...
IFC teachers quarrelling
so end of year, the old teachers resign, principal resign, then also changing classes and shifts for the ifc teachers. today afternoon shift was all the "new" teachers and they cannot handle my girl who has been there since she was 2 months old. now 5 months already. today I pick her up, she crying, I just hold her and she stopped. but when I peeked in the window, they stuffed a blanket to her face and put her in the rocker to force her to sleep, when she crying so loudly. then they informed me that even though they just fed her 1 hour ago, they thought she hungry so fed her again, but she never stop crying, then they put the oil for the stomach cause thought she stomach pain but also didn't stop crying . .. last time the teacher will put pacifier but I guess they never pass the information, last time also teachers will carry awhile... but ok new teacher I just smile and say its ok, first day , they got to learn. then while I teaching my.husband how to use the carrier with the baby outside the center, we heard the 3 teachers with one kid still inside waiting for the parent, they quarreling very loudly. With one teacher scolding the other two the. they shouting.. I mean obviously , I feel the last kid sure traumatised... I feel I should say something but also not sure about it and to whom as well.. usually bb gurl come home will sleep immediately, but today, sleep alrdy then will cry very loudly when lights off and need to console , carry here and there half an hour and leave lights on, till she falls asleep.. I feel maybe she also traumatised by the new teachers way of handling her. Do you guys think I should say something to the morning teachers? or confront the afternoon teachers or wait a few days and see the situation? I don't know who more traumatised, my baby or my husband who usually don't pick her up, but clearing leave this end of year, so he is surprised to see her like this in the evening. And feels that the teachers traumatised her...
Is this okay? Baby poop
Baby is on pure formula now, about 2 mths old, and had to put in effort to push, poop was hard and had a bit of diluted blood stain kind, but afterwards it was the usual pastey kind. Is this normal? Is this dehydration or formula constipation.. what should i do?

Unpaid leave
Hello mummies, will you take up additional unpaid leave outside of the 16 weeks maternity? My boss is flexible and I am able to take more time off to look after my newborn. I am planning to take an additional 4 weeks unpaid, and considering maybe 8 or going back part time first.. but that would mean no income for 2 months as well. Anyone did this too?
