I'm so worried about all the illnesses our toddler would bring home to our newborn (to be born in late winter).

Our baby has always had a digestive related witching hour, but her gassiness has significantly increased in the last week. Our formula has started the same, so I’m not sure it’s that and no diarrhea or rashes. Anyone else experience this?

For anyone who is currently doing it. How do I know if a food I’m eating is bothering my daughter? I wouldn’t define her as colicky per se. But she is overall a fussy-ish baby. She’s happy when she’s nursing and usually for a few of her wake windows she is happy. But otherwise I feel like I’m constantly feeding he...

Has anyone ever had the doctor prescribe lactulose for their newborn and if so, how much did you have to give them? My little girl is 4 weeks and very constipated, I think it’s due to the hungry baby milk she is on. I combo feed with breastmilk too so hoping that it helps her poo as well but it’s been nearly 24 h...
