@emann A lot of moms do feel guilt. Is it normal? That's a difficult one to answer. I think social media, some health authorities, brands, etc. causes a lot of moms to feel unwarranted guilt. I bet you know before the internet, moms just did whatever was best for their baby without feeling...

@hove131 We also don't allow TV unless there is a football (soccer) match on and she can watch with dad. Due to the time they play, it really doesn't happen often (I think she's 'watched' two or three soccer games since she's born). She loses interest after about 10 minutes and starts playing...

@rayasyaa13 If feeding her at night works for both of you then carry on doing it. You are her mom - if you think she needs two feeds during the night, give her two feeds. If you do eventually want to stop a night feeding, you can maybe try weaning her off slowly instead of just stopping. The...
