Hi all, Has anyone had any trouble with poops since birth? My little one is on anti reflux milk which is thicker and at first, was causing awful constipation and she was practically unable to poo herself without me helping her (doing bicycle legs and crunches until she pooped), she was then prescribed some Lactulos...

4week old Baby is formula fed, and she hasn’t had a poo in over a day! This has happened once before but then she started up again. She seems really uncomfortable and frustrated. She gets red in the face and gets all scrunched up. Tried baby massage and bicycle legs. Any help on this? Thank you

I'm finding all kinds of conflictingbadvice online. The most confusing that it depends on the consistency rather than frequency, but she hasn't pooped so I don't know the consistency. She's been going 4 times a day until a couple weeks ago, then we suddenly had some days when she'd only go once, others where she'd s...

Should/can I take my two year old daughter with me to my first ever appointment for this mind you spouse will be unavailable

Has anyone got any tips for a colicky baby that aren’t already on google? We’ve tried everything with our 6 week old LO and the night times are really rough. I find myself getting upset simply because I can’t help her and I feel so sorry for her! I’m going to talk to my health visitor on Tuesday as I’m fairly certai...

Hey y’all. My daughter turns 5 months in a couple days. She’s teething and loves putting her hands in her mouth. But sometimes she gags herself. Especially when she’s tired - I think she’s more forceful with chewing on her hands when she’s tired. Anyway, she sometimes gags herself and today she actually vomited poor...

Formula fed 1 week old how many poos are your babies doing? Baby girl was going lots and now it slowed

Hi mums, Does cow's milk cause constipation or stomach ache to your little one?

Can anyone recommend a good Osteopath in London for my baby who’s 2 weeks old and suffering with colic/reflux. Trying to find any solution that will help!

Just had the letter through to book our 12 month jabs- anyone had these done yet :( I’m nervous

What’s your toddlers favourite toys at the moment? Need some new toy inspo!❤️

Hey guys! Random question - but how much are your LOs pooping?! Mine is 15 weeks was going once or twice a day but over the last week or so he’s been going almost after every feed which feels like a lot! He is dribbling a lot though so I’m wondering if that’s also a reason? I might be over thinking which I do for ev...

My lactation consultant told me to check the baby for tongue tie. Does anyone have experience with it? How's the procedure? My LO is bottle fed and gaining proper weight, so his pediatrician is not concerned. At the hospital, the pediatrician checked his tongue but they never mentioned a tie.

My partner and I were in a glass lift with our baby, as it stopped our family were tapping on the other side of the glass. My 5 month old put her hand on the door just as it sprung open and it just nipped her fingers. She screamed for 15 minutes and then fell asleep. They don’t look swollen or bruised, they were sli...

Any idea what this could be? Could it be CMPA or am I being dramatic… more pics in comments if I can Poo’s are normal, he’s straining quite hard, farting a bit, being quite fussy, wants to be held all the time. 5 weeks old today.

Hello! Has anyone tried or heard of a vibrating toy that goes on the baby's tummy to relieve gas? Baby has gas and maybe reflux issues. I have an appt next week and will mention it to the Pediatrician. I'm not switching formulas... there's 101 different types and it's too much. I've tried burping more often during...

My girl constantly smells sicky , she keeps being sick and hour or so after feeding, she burps fine straight after her bottle, not sure if this is normal my other LG wasn’t sick at all as a baby! 😣

Don’t want any advice saying they’re not needed etc Moved onto stage 2 cow & gate and every day since my daughter has woken up in the morning and done an explosive watery poo. Very smelly, yellow and runny. Her poo was always like that when she was solely on milk, changed when she went onto solids and now back to t...

Hey! My two month old keeps peeing on his side. Whether it's before or after his feeds. We make sure his private is facing down and he fits his diapers. Any reason why he's doing this?
