Hey, how are you keeping your baby occupied atm? I’m struggling a bit, heavily pregnant and not able to get out too much (we do get out; soft play yday for example), but home days are pretty boring. Anything you do with them?

Hi all, has anyone applied for this and could tell me when they received the text that a case manager is looking over your child’s case and the information we sent how long after you got a decision? Ty🤍

Does anyone else’s baby poop ALL the time? He’s 5 & a half months, exclusively breastfed, I know breast milk has natural laxatives but throughout the night last night he pooped 6 times, twice more this morning and it’s not even 8am. Throughout the day he’ll probably poop 7-8 times too on average! Is this normal?🤣

Okay so I was bathing my daughter per usual after a blowout and she laughed. Like a big ol’ belly laugh. Let’s back up a sec: for bathing, we use a sterilized peri-bottle for squirting her body with a water and shampoo/body wash mix. Tonight after washing with a washcloth, I squirted her body with it and it was ge...

Does anyone else baby get a little constipated at times && if so what do you do to help you little one?

How often does your 4 week old poop (formula fed babies only) My LO is formula fed and I don’t know if he gets constipated. He’ll poop once a day or some days not at all. Does anyone else’s baby not poop much?

Doctor says every 2-3 days . I’ve been doing every other day, and wipe downs in between but I’d like to do them daily . How often do you guys bathe your 7/8 month olds?

I know it’s waterproof, that’s not what I’m asking.

My baby has cmpa and a corn allergy but those have been cleared from his diet for months. Hes crying uncontrollably when going to sleep out of the blue acting gassy. I have to be honest sometimes it’s so hard to keep my cool. How do you keep from getting frustrated?? I have a very needy two year old as well who has ...

Hey - no judgement at all but are there any mums that have decided not to Vaccinate their baby? And if you would like to share your reasons please do/ if not that’s ok. I have chosen not to Vaccinate but just wondering if there was anyone else?

I’ve been advised by the vets that my dog can’t have his kennel cough vaccine yet as we have a 4 week old baby at home. They can’t advise when he can have it as they can’t make that call apparently. Has anyone else been through this? How old was your baby when your dog had the vaccine?

This is my 3rd baby and I don’t think I’ve ever been so bad about cleaning and tidying😂 I’m 35+2 but my god I cannot sit down for 5 minutes without finding something to do

My 17 month old used to love the bath, would run to it every evening and enjoyed splashing etc. Then overnight about a week ago when we put her in she was terrified - holding on for dear life and shouting ‘all done’ to get out. This has happened every time we try and bathe her since. Nothing has happened in the bath...

My little one has cheesy, smelly hands no matter how often I clean them, and I’m addicted to the smell 😂anyone else?
