How did your baby react differently to their seconds jabs? My little man was absolutely fine with his first but I’m nervous he’ll be worse with his second jabs today

How does GD work after birth? Do they test you in the hospital again or when do they test? I’ve seen some people get a 2 hr test done in the hospital & some don’t. what do they do with the baby in the hospital like what kind of test are done for the baby?

Whilst I’ve managed to calm him down for a moment I need your guys help. So, woke up this morning to my baby fidgeting and shouting (he does this everytime he wants his bottle) so made him one and got ready to give it to him. When it had warmed up I started feeding him like i always do, nothing different. He was fin...

Over the past 4 days my little boy is pooing around 4-6 times a day ... up to 2 weeks ago he was going once every other day. Otherwise completely well no signs of infection and poo looks normal. My gp just said its fine but doesn't know if other (nearly ) 5 months old are also doing this ? Hea EBF no change in diet x

Anyone’s kiddo get rosy red cheeks after they eat? Basically after any meal?

My baby’s 5 weeks tomorrow and only ever had 2 baths. His first at 10 days and his second at 22 days old. I wanted to wait for his umbilical cord to heal for his first bath and then his skin always dries out after each bath too. I know his skin is delicate so I didn’t want to over do it as it’s sensitive and I belie...

Today we went to my kids doctor and the doctor upped their medication because it’s not working. Also today for the first time I watched my husband give the medicine. This fucking man, shoves it in their mouths and walks away. They have been spitting it out of the carpet. 🫤🫤🫤

Anyone else going to a chiropractor at this point in pregnancy to get everything aligned? 33 weeks and baby is breech right now so I’m trying everything to get her to flip! I really want a natural vaginal birth, I don’t want to get a c section 😢 looking for encouragement !

My baby is 6 weeks old and is exclusively breastfed. She would usually poop after each feeding but it’s been since early Tuesday morning since she’s pooped. She’s super fussy and uncomfortable as if she’s trying to poop but nothing happens. I’ve tried the Frida windi , “I love you” massage , moving her legs and warm...

Hey moms! How long after birth did you wait to give your baby a bath? 🛀 👶🏼 Did you wait for the umbilical cord to dry up and fall off?

Baby is 6 days old and cries for at least an hour and a half at night time. So so hard to sooth her! We thought it was colic originally, but reading up on colic, it doesn't seem to be. She's pooping and weeing absolutely fine and feeding well. Spoke to a relative who's a health visitor, and they have said its just...

My baby is EBF and we started properly weaning about 2 weeks ago. He hasn’t pooped for 4 days now, whereas before he would go like a clockwork every morning.. I’m wondering if he might be constipated? Has anyone else experienced this with their little one?

Someone please help me I’m at wits end! My LO is 5 weeks old today. He is formula fed (Kendamil). Some days he is completely fine and isn’t sick at all. Other days he is sick all day. Sometimes he is sick after feeds and then for a couple of hours later if I pick him up or move him. He seems to wait to drink mor...

Not sure whether it will be good or bad? I will get ear defenders of course just not sure if it’s a good idea to take my one year old!

Hey all, My little boy had his jabs this morning and was so brave bless him, he’s been fine all day, I stayed ontop of the calpol (though he hates it!) but he refused to take any before bed and now has a temperature of 38.7. I’ve since managed to get him to take 2.5ml of calpol, he seems fine in himself babbling aw...

Our 7 week old has been coughing randomly since birth and has started to squirm a lot and cry when trying to burp. He gags a lot and is congested esp at night time, he’s started to arch his back when he’s lay flat and isn’t enjoying his bottle at all. Hes never sick but he’s been constipated since 3 days old but we’...

Our LO is 13 weeks and just has his 12 week jabs today at 11:30. He was fine after just a little clingy but since 4pm he has just been sleeping, when awake he is crying and is inconsolable, loads of tears and it’s very upsetting to see. He’s a lot worse compared to the 8 week jabs I have given him some calpol and ...

My baby is now six weeks and has only been pooping once every 2 days for the last 3 weeks and now he’s doing 3 or 4 times a day. Is anyone else’s LO going that many times a day?

Does anybody know if you can just have the MMR vaccine and not the other 3?? I don’t want him to have the other 3.

So my 20 month old is still breastfeeding at least once or twice in 24/h, this morning she was breastfeeding shortly after she threw up, I gave her breakfast as usual once we got ourselves up and ready for the day, had some breakfast (didn’t finish all) and shortly after she threw up again. Could this be a stomach b...
