Hello, suddenly out of no where my daughter hates going in the bath. She loved it from since she was born. She had a chest infection a few weeks ago and it’s been since then that she can’t stand the bath. She will now scream the place down when she is the bath. Does anyone have any ideas why this maybe and have any ...

Hey, I just wondered how normal it was that my 8 week old poop is often green and watery? With my other babies their poo was more curry coloured 😅 i have googled (as you do) and from what I can tell it could be a reaction to something I am eating, but as long as it's not bloody or black i shouldn't worry too…

Does anyone else experience breathlessness more so after eating? I feel like when I’ve got a full belly I can’t breathe since being pregnant.

Hey Mamas We've booked our 4 month old for parent and baby swimming classes starting this Friday and I don't know how what to dress him in and logistics of it all lol. I need swimming nappies right?

Hello! Has anyone taken any infant CPR class or overall CPR classes? If so please let me know. Thanks!

Has anyone had their toddler in a hot tub without the bubbles on. We can adjust the temperature so it wouldn’t be too hot but I can see general guidance is a no for this age

I know breastfed babies can go days without pooping and babies her age cluster feed but I’m pretty sure my little girl isn’t getting full because she’s not pooping. She eats for 30-40 minutes and then death screams like she’s still starving. I know I make enough because I have replaced latching with pumping and I’m ...

I’ve accidentally recycled the questionnaire that I was sent by the health visitor for the 27 month check.. I don’t want to rock up tomorrow and have the embarrassment of not having it ready. I’m already nervous about the driving and parking. I’ve found it online I think but could anyone just confirm I’ve got the ri...

My LO has out grown the angelcare bath seat now. She is still on the small side. Does anyone have any recommendations for a sit in bath thing for them now they’re bit bigger. Thanks

My baby hasn't had a poo since Thursday and is very irritable, at times she's screaming in pain. She's hungry but is mainly refusing to take a bottle and when she does is vomiting. I've done all the usual tricks, belly rub, bicycle legs, baby massage, bath etc. Nothing is helping. Any advice? Or will I need to conta...

Hi my baby is 11 weeks, has had blood in his nappy for 8 weeks constantly. Hospital advised to cut CMP out of my diet. I’ve cut it now for three weeks and there’s still blood. He’s on a waiting list for paediatrics but it could be up to 32 weeks wait. Anyone else had this issue?

We're currently using a baby bath which sits in the floor of our shower, but once our baby outgrows that and it's no longer suitable, not really sure what to do! I know some children get used to showering from a very early age but not sure how to go about this. If you have just a shower, what did you do? 🙂

So my girl is 6 weeks. She has really bad reflux on normal formula. Will scream in pain for a good hour after a feed and bring up milk quite a few times. She has been on anti-reflux milk which solved this issue but made her massively constipated. She was given laxatives to help with this but she was then having 10+ ...

Does anyone know what I can do to help my lo to poop. It’s been over 24 hours and I’m a little concerned because he was going like every other nappy. He’s formula fed and 9 days old. He’s farting a lot and I think he’s got a bit of a sore tummy.

I’m wondering if anyone else’s nearly 8 week old still has completely watery poo? My daughter has silent reflux doctor gave us baby Gaviscon which made my LO constipated. But that’s the only time my LO hasn’t had basically watery poo. It’s always explosive and seems to only be getting worse as it’s now leaking from ...
