I only ask as I am currently still feeding my 17 month old and am ready to stop soon, hoping that she self weans but sadly that looks unlikely. So I've done quite a lot of research about it all and the WHO recommend babies are fed until at least 2 and that there are still plenty of health benefits from feeding after the age of 1.

I can imagine there’s definitely benefits - maybe it’s because the thought of breastfeeding once teeth are involved gives me the shudders! I know it’s totally individual.

Why are they letting that baby sleep in a disgusting stained sleeping bag. Also yesterday she pictured the baby with vomit all over her face and clothes, yet the baby was still pictured in them same clothes hours later. Also didnt think babies were to sleep in the bags unless they were over 10lb!

The picture yesterday with the sick over her face was disgusting. You wouldn’t picture a toddler with sick over their face so why is it ok for a newborn?

They're not meant to be in a sleeping bag. I'm expecting my first and have been warned by my midwife about sleeping bags until he is big enough

Some sleeping bags are for smaller weights, my 2 were about born at 9lb ish and thier sleeping bags were 7lbs+

I also came to say about her mentioning of ember looking like winter... perhaps that is why she isnt bonding well with baby? She does look alot like him nothing like raven.
 
As long as the baby's head is big enough to not fit through the opening then sleeping bags are fine. Some sleeping bags go.from 7lbs or something

What concerns me more is on one of her posts she said she follows all the lullaby trust sleeping guidelines having lost a baby themselves. But if she did she would know that no bumpers are safe even air mesh ones

I feel like after Winter, they tried to conceive quickly (im not judging just stating facts) then had a miscarriage (or two I'm not 100% sure), then Raven was conceived and born healthy and well. So all of those mixed feelings were all projected onto this miracle baby Raven who was born well and taken home.
But it's like she's almost become this holy grail that's become untouchable, and everyone and everything comes second to her.
I understand wanting to give your child the world, I've also lost a child so I know how that feels, but there comes a point where you have to realise that you're absolutely smothering your child with the way you're raising her and keeping her as close to you as possible all the time and not letting her grow up. It's got to the point that it's at the detriment of others, including her brand new baby sister and thats really not fair.

She looked so vacant didn’t she, it actually made me sad seeing that, she didn’t appear happy! She says that she’s snuggling the baby in the photo, that’s not a snuggle to me, it kinda seems like she’s a bit disconnected from the baby in a way! When my little boy was newborn he was constantly being snuggled with him on my chest and actually hugging him, this just seems a bit off.

Yep when I had my little boy too he was always on my chest and just being hugged, I feel bad that she seems very distant and vacant.
