mommy2be92

See I go thru that as well nightmares can't sleep the whole night nuttin its crazy

mommy2be92

Thanks guys. Yeah I mean its scary what we dream about

snreda

Dont nap. And at night you can take tylenol pm

mommy2be92

Really but I thought that was bad to take while pregnant

snreda

Nope, anything tylenol is safe

It only gets worse lol. Just think how much sleep we'll get once the babies are here.

mommy2be92

Oh I can only hope my baby sleeps threw the night but me and the father were both collic babies

jennybump19

No new born babys sleep threw the night most babys go every 3 too 4 hours wanting a bottle !

mommy2be92

Yikes man that's def gonna throw your sleeping off

jennybump19

It doesnt bother me but when babys first born you should try take naps while they are sleeping they normal sleep threw the night when they are 4 months old

Dr.brown bottles have been known to reduce collic, just sayin. My sleep has been horrible while pregnant. I wake up constantly & have the most awkward dreams. But its all worth it for the bean!

mommy2be92

I've heard dr. Brown leaks thow

412mommy

Really? I haven't read that in any of the reviews I found. My family & friends swear by them. Nothing is absolutely perfect tho, I guess. I'm sure every company makes a few with defects.

mommy2be92

Yeah I use to work at babies r us and the dr browns people would always return. And we would ask why and they said that they leak and there's just to many parts to wash. But I guess you have to find the bottle that works for you

BellaProia

I heard doctor brown leaks too. I'm trying Tippe Tomme. It has great reveiws and is designed for babies that primarly breast feed. Read up, I'm excited to try, I researched forever before buying.

412mommy

Yeah its all preference I guess. I wonder how many people on these forums are using formula instead of breast feeding. I am, but some people I've talk to about it think I'm crazy for not breastfeeding. My mom formula fed me & I turned out just fine.

BellaProia

Oh and it has an awsome anti colic system

jennybump19

Formula is just as good , but breastfeeding is so much better for u + ur baby it gives them all the goodness they need !...

412mommy

That's what I've read, but with so many different kinds of formulas out they've got to be on the same level. I haven't thought of the brand I want to use yet, I wanna make sure the baby takes well to it first.

mommy2be92

Well also you gotta make sure your formal doesn't get recalled

jennybump19

You will no whats best for your baby ! No one can tell u what too do ..

412mommy

The risks are endless with babies! Lol ill learn as I go, I suppose.

I also have a hard time sleeping and I'm always exhausted. I'm 7 weeks. I just recently started having weird dreams as well.

BellaProia

Fomula is great but breast feeding it better, every shot u have every received is passed to ur baby threw ur milk. Formula doesn't pass emunities to ur baby like moms milk. It also give baby the raw nutrition from the food you eat. Babies love the different flavors. For example, if u eat pinapple the miilk is sweet, garlic also gives it a unique taste. Also if u eat brocoli your milk will be green lol (no joke) Plus its great for ur body. Every time u nurse its like a work out and contracts ur uterous.

I've started having strange dreams also, they started in November when I was getting close to six months. I think they're partly because of being pregnant, but also because my fiance was unwell, then admitted to hospital but he's home now. It's always best to try breast feeding if you can, even if it's for a little while it still will benefit your baby.

betty

Breast feeding the very first milk is the best thing for baby.. when u first hold your baby, try giving him your first milk... And you loose weight faster breastfeeding... I didnt give my 1st, cuz i "was a new parent" but I gave breast & bottle to my 2nd and what a bond and she was chunky!! I plan on giving bottle and breast to 3rd.
