My little boy has reflux, fought over the weekend for something to be done about it, thankfully we got there. Has anyone changed baby’s formula to the anti reflux (we’re on cow and gate) and baby’s stools got lighter?

Baby got blocked nose at two weeks old should I book an appointment with GP on Tuesday

just went for a walk and saw a play kitchen is seemingly pristine condition sitting out by the dumpsters of my apt complex. i looked up the specific one and it retails for like $122 from target and while this one doesn’t have any of the pieces that come with it like i said it in really good condition and ive been sc...

Does anyone else know about this? My LO is 8 weeks old and is starting to seem like he is in pain sometimes when we feed him (he takes formula). When it happens, He makes this high pitched sound and often eats much less than usual. He has spat up in the past if we don't keep him upright after a feed but, this is new...

For the mommas who have already started their weekly checks, I was wondering if they start checking you at your 36 week appointment for dilation and such!

My 10 days old baby can’t poo, she is so stressed, what can I do? Exercise and bath won’t work ? Can the doctor give me something? Online it says water but over a month so can’t do that

Hey, wondering if anyone has any tips. My baby is 4 weeks old. He is a dream in the day and is when he’s eventually settled at night. Between 9-11 every night he cry’s and is very unsettled nothing comforts him. Once he is down he only wakes for one feed in the night and wake about 7am. I just wanted to see if anyon...

6yo occasionally likes to run around naked after a bath. She fully understands that private parts are to be kept private but at home I guess she feels more at ease and cheeky. She’s also hypermobile and always sitting with her underwear on full display. I just feel like it’s very unladylike and not appropriate ...

I think my nearly 6 week old has Colic but don’t really know what to do or where to start but I really need a break. I’ve been using infocol but not sure if it’s really helping, she is passing wind and burping but still really unsettled gets worse in the evening. The crying is awful, and it’s really getting to me....

Baby 10 weeks always congested, green poo recently has turned green and tops of eye lids go red. GP has told me congestion normal at this age. Pictures attached does this sound like an allergy

What symptoms did everyone’s babies have what got them diagnosed as having CMPA? Were the symptoms really obvious like rashes, sick, green poo or was anyone’s less obvious and referred to as colic/reflux to begin with? Bit of a random one but also is it normal for babies poo to smell like vinegar or could it be lin...

My 6 week old baby has become super clingy.. love snuggling with her in bed and I can do a lot if I baby wear.. initially she had 4 to 5 hour naps during the day but that’s long gone and I would use the time to squeeze in a shower among other things.. I haven’t taken a shower in two days because I generally do not w...

Not uncomfortable but just only every 3 days

2 days ago I changed my babies formula from aptamil to aptamil comfort as she was experiencing extremely bad trapped wind/colic and was super unsettled 24/7, but today she has been in so much pain when pooing and we noticed that it had got stuck and she is now really sore . I was trying infacol but made her reflux ...

My baby boy is now 2 and half weeks old. He seems to go a good couple days without a poo and then has one and then goes another couple days without but he also seems to be in discomfort especially at night time!! Should I get him a doctors appointment? The midwife said if it’s 3 days or longer without a poo then con...

My baby boy is exclusively BF. We have been struggling since he was born. Around 6 weeks he was diagnosed with colic, started bio Gaia. It helped for about 1.5-2 months, then i noticed it was making it worst then before like he would wake up every day crying and grunting after 5ish sometimes after 6. Then i stopped ...

My little girl is 10 weeks old and hasn’t pooped in 8 days she has lactulose but it hasn’t helped she’s been on it for a week now how often does your little one poop she’s having breast milk if that makes a difference

Shen do these fall off? My baby girl still has hers on at 9 days old x

We’ve seen a private doctor via teams who said all of my baby’s symptoms are related to CMPA. All paediatricians here are saying it’s ‘just eczema’ and are refusing to prescribe EHF. We’ve seen other healthcare professionals who seem to think she definitely has an intolerance/allergy. We swapped from comfort to goat...

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...
