Does anyone else find that their baby has SOOO much more spit up these days (2 months) after boob? At this point I feel like it’s not a spit up but a mini vomit. He doesn’t seem in pain or they’re not projectile but still multiple times a day at each feed on the boob. He’s always had this but I feel like we’ve peake...

Is it normal for a baby with a virus? She has gastroenteritis and bronchitis for the moment and is having very painful gas pains and cramps and farts a loooot.

My little guy is only 5 days old but he is constantly pooping! He had 8 poos today and yesterday, and 7 the day before, they aren’t massive but more than just a “share” 🤣. The midwives have said it’s fine but it seems excessive- especially compared to my little girl who was only pooping about once a day when she…

So my baby (14 months) woke us up this morning at 12:45 to the lovely surprise of vomit. He hasn’t been able to keep anything down really and hasn’t had any wet diapers except for when he is throwing up he peed a little bit. I’ve been doing everything I can think of. I keep offering milk to keep him hydrated but he ...

Has anyone had star anise in pregnancy? A coworker has given me some in my drink, I drank about 4 sips until I realised however it’s not on the NHS website on foods to avoid but other sources are mixed messages. So worried 😩

It’s been 5 months and I have to wait for my husband to come home so I can have a shower. Some days I’m not even able to! Any advice on taking baby with you into the bathroom in a bouncer for example?

This probably sounds ridiculous hence the anonymous post 🙈 so since having my baby I’ve absolutely hated the way I look, can’t look at my self in the mirror without feeling so awful. Don’t get me wrong I’m so thank for my boy but I want to get a completely new look new hairstyle etc but I have no idea where to…

Would you recommend it for a colicy baby who is having gas pains? TIA!

I think my little girl has got colic after reading all of the symptoms. Does anyone have any tips to settle her at night time? I feel like that’s when she is the most uncomfortable with it☹️we are currently using infacol but I don’t think it is doing anything. Thank you💗

Anyone else really struggling with constipation? I’ve been taking lactulose for over a month and as of last week fybogel as well but I am fed up. If I’m not thinking about my baby I’m thinking about poo! I’m 19 weeks and still being sick as well, not sure how much longer I can cope with both issues 😞

How often do kids (10 and under) really need to bathe?

How do I get my 18 month old okay with having the clip in bows in her hair. They look so cute and I want to be able to do things with her hair but she keeps taking them out. Do they eventually become okay with it and stop taking things out of their hair or what’s the process? I just tried today so far and randomly o...

It’s been almost 2 days since my baby has pooped. What can I do

Am I wrong for asking my mother to get an RSV test when she was recenly exposed to my niece and nephew who had caught it? She made it seem like it was a big deal me asking her to do so and we have a Christmas event at her house in 3 days. I have a 10 month old and RSV can be dangerous and potentially my daughter...

My baby girl is 1 month and 3 weeks old. She had an allergic reaction to aptamil when she was about 4 weeks old. She went on this new milk and has been perfectly fine until now. Iv noticed after a feed she screams for no reason or sometimes she can randomly wake up and scream for 2 hours at a time and won’t settle. ...
