Anyone else’s babies going dayssssss without pooping!? We’re now on day 9 and I can’t get my little guy to go 😢. We’ve tried the massages and I even bought a rectal thermometer today in hopes of “stimulating the anus a bit” but nothing yet! He seems fine overall but I’m concerned! Is anyone else going through this?…

I have booked my 5 week old baby to see an osteopath. He’s struggling with reflux and is super tense. He had a tongue tie which was cut at 2 days old. Wondering for those who has used one, what their experiences were and if they saw a difference.

Where can I go to get my baby checked for tongue tie? I have been told midwife’s etc don’t deal with it if u don’t breastfeed? So where can I go to get this checked for one.

My LO is 1 month and she has been having STRUGGLING when it comes to pooping. She goes bright red in the face and often wakes herself from sleeping because of it.

How often are we all bathing our little ones? We are currently doing every other night as she absolutely loves it! Would love to do every night but don’t want to dry her skin out! X

I think my 3 week old has a tongue tie... it doesn't affect him eating (BF). I mean, it was a point where it was kind of hard for him to latch to my left breast, but it wasn't a cause for a concern. He gains weight and latch really good. I'm just wondering why they didn't bring it up in the hospital when I had him? ...

My son (5 weeks old) has a ‘buried penis’ also known as a rectractile penis. Our doctor who had him circumcised told us this and ever since I’ve been a little worried. I’ve read that this is something they may grow out of? Does anyone have any experience with this please?

What do we do with our boy toddlers who have hair in their eyes now? Cutting is not an option.

My baby had his immunisations on Friday and the rotavirus oral drop, handled them well but today he keeps bringing up his milk and seems to be in some type of pain as he’s been unsettled most of the day… I’m not sure if this could be down what he’s had done as it was a couple of days ago now? Does anyone know if sym...

My daughters jags are coming up next month and I’m absolutely dreading it. I was just wondering if anyone had had theirs yet and how it went for you? My daughter had adhd and I’m so scared how she’ll be and if it’ll put her off going to the doctors

We have a very healthy diet which includes veggies and fruits. We rarely have any processed foods but baby was all of a sudden constipated for 4 days last week. Before baby used to go at least once a day. Any recommendations? She ended up having some prune pouch. Should I start including it in the diet?

Hi ladies, I am really in need of a bath- I feel gross if I just have a shower, I just want to relax my body. I am 9 days post op, am I safe to have a bath even if it's for a short period of time?
