My 15 month old has had constipation on and off for a few weeks. Nothing has changed in his diet per sè but he is forcing all day and just doing tiny poos. They are hard but also soft at the same time.. I'm taking him to the gp on Monday. But I've done the usual prune pouch, upped his water intake, fibre rich food...

7 months old & constipated. Tried prune juice, water, stool softener, fruit, warm water & sugar, proper belly massages for constipation, bicycle legs etc.. nothing. He’s EBF but also on solids and I think having too many veggies and not enough fruit has caused this. I’ve also been introducing formula too. Baby is...

My 9 week LB screams around food. He wakes up crying, it escalates to a scream and then he cries if we try and pace feed him or give him breaks to burp. He literally guzzles a bottle until he’s basically milk drunk and that’s the only way he settles and sometimes we have to make another bottle to properly settle hi...

Anyone else have a really fussy baby? She'll be 6 weeks old on Sunday. I feel like she's always crying except when she's eating or sleeping. This is the only way she likes to be held between feeds.

My little girl is 3 weeks today, she’s been suffering with stomach pain/struggling to poop (is still pooping) but straining a lot and kicking her legs and crying especially when being put down I know it’s their time of learning how to use the muscles to poop but it’s so hard watching her be in pain, I try to massag...

My 4 week old girl always seems like she’s struggling with gas or constipation (even though her poo is soft) She grunts and thrusts and goes bright red in the face, lifting her legs up etc is this normal or could something be wrong?

Maybe I’m misunderstanding the response, but I think 3.5 is way too young to shower alone. Please add comments if your thoughts are not captured by the choices.

is anyone else so bloated to the point where you can’t even eat a whole meal? i can only eat 3-4 spoonfuls and then i’d feel too full to finish the rest of my food and as a full time working mother of a toddler, it’s hard to find time to eat small meals in between from being busy with work all day to taking care of ...
