My hubby has had a lifelong issue with the smell of faecal matter. Over the past year it's gotten really bad, like a sewer smell. He's deeply embarrassed and doctors haven't helped. Anyone have any ideas?

Hi moms! FTM here of a one month old. I’ve been really going through it and emotional bc my baby has only been pooping once every 3-4 days. The docs have told me this is normal for breastfed babies. What do you think? Any suggestions or remedies to help comfort my baby. Lastly, any reviews about using tubby Todd’...

I’m 4 months pp has any one else had really bad smelling farts since giving birth?

I knowww this is tmi, but is anyone else dealing with super bad constipation postpartum? I delivered 2 weeks ago and I’ve maybe 💩 5 times? I take laxatives and stool softeners but nothing happens. Should I be concerned?

How to reduce reflux or baby being sick after every feed?

I’m really confused. Everyone seems to still have a health visitor. I had 2 visits from mine at the beginning when my boy was born ever since then I haven’t had another one. Everyone seems to be able to contact their specific health visitor. I was only given a phone number in my red book to call the general health ...

I’m leaning towards spacing out my baby’s one year jabs. Does anyone have any advice on which 2 to give first and how long to leave between them? I’ve looked online but can’t seem to find clear answers. I understand the benefits of “getting it over and done with” but I still think I’d rather put his body through les...

Hi, how often do you bathe your baby at 9 weeks?

I know it's normal because he's just wanting his bottle as he knows it's coming but I never had it to this extent with my first, there's no distracting him unless he gets that bottle!

And the girl who did it knows my babysitter. She asked if my babysitter knows and how my other kids felt about the new baby. I told her that I don't want the babysitter to know yet. I told my husband what happened and he said if the babysitter finds out about the pregnancy then I could report the girl who did my b...

Has anyone had an email saying they were going to receive a home visit before their baby was due? I got one today but i thought they only came once the baby was born its absolutely fine but im just not sure what to expect as im a first time mum

Really undecided what to do for the best 😩

Is everyone using a cream or moisturiser on their babies after every bath? I’ve never bothered as her skin is perfect but am I supposed to be?

Is there any advice on if this is ok? He went for a poo in the night but hasn’t been since and seems to be very irritable and was wondering if there’s anything we can do to help?

Is this normal thing? I contacted them in July/august. Signed forms and everything. But haven’t heard back about paying deposit. Is this normal? Should I go elsewhere? Hoping for baby to start in January l
