Has anyone paid to get their child to have MMR as separate injections? Instead of having the MMR jab. if so where in London ?

My baby had his immunisation at 8w, 12w and 16w (I believe). I wasn’t educated at that time and I regret it so much now I would love him to be fully unvaccinated. He’s now 13 months and I haven’t noticed anything different on him I don’t think it caused any delay or issue. Those were the only vaccines he received ...

Hey , I went to the doctors on the 17th of December and my baby had blood in her poop and her doctor said that is a diary allergy. Had this happen to anyone else?

Hello loves, My baby hasn’t passed since Monday, she does normally struggle to go since she had her 1st lot of jabs. Shes 4 months old. We’ve given her laxatives yesterday and still nothing. Any tips to help her go? How long should I leave her until going back to the doctors.

Hi! My 3 month old hasn't pooed in over 8 days. I'm mostly breastfeeding with some formula top ups. When she passes wind it has been pretty smelly. Is this a) sign she is constipated?

My LO is 5 months old and loves bath time however constantly tries to chew on the sponge…. Anyone else’s LO do this?

Online says they should transition to a regular bath at 6-12 months but surely toys are just going to float away and it's a waste of water

When did you have a bubble bath after having an episiotomy? My stitches have now dissolved and my bleeding has tapered off to only needing a panty liner, I'm 2 weeks pp. Im absolutely desperate for a nice bubble bath and wondered if it's now safe to do so?

Hiya, my baby (6 weeks old) has Been constipated for 3 days she finally passed a stool today but it was tiny and solid and almost like a nugget. Is this normal?

So, I gave my nearly 5 month old a bath last night, like we do every night. The only difference is that I got in the bath with her, I picked her up a couple of times. She kept getting water and bubble bath bubbles in her ears and then she put her soapy hand in her mouth only for a second because I got it away quite ...

My lg was 5 weeks when she suddenly went from 5-6 poos a day to suddenly not pooing. GP prescribed lactulose and after 5 days (2 days of the lactulose) she did a sludgy poo.
