My Little one had his jabs yesterday and he just will not be put down but will happily sleep on me for hours. How long are they normally like this for? TIA

My son has his 16 week jabs tomorrow, how were your LOs after having theirs? He was fine with his other jabs but still dreading him having them again ☹️

Hia. Little one has just had his third set of jabs. How are you all managing to get Calpol down your little ones? Mine spits most of his out! So he's got a very pink bib now lol

My girl is 4 1/2 months she’s ebf, so I know it’s normal to go quite regularly or even only once a week. Which seems bizarre to me lol But she has been very regular the whole time, almost every nappy most days. I need to count how many times 😂

When can you have a bath after a c section? Im three weeks postpartum and dying for a soak in the bath.

My little one has not had a bowel movement in 3 days, He is on expressed breast milk only, 4.5 months old . This is the first time he has not pooed usually poos 2-3 times a day, still has plenty of wet nappies and still feeding no other symptoms. Is this normal or should i be making an appointment to get him checked...

Anyone else’s LO spend an age tensing and straining trying to poop? He is fed Aptamil at the moment, but we do have some Kendamil..is it worth switching to see if it helps?

My girl has had a strong reaction, big temp and diarrhea, to her 8 week jabs... Just wondering if this is the worst of the three first sets or no. Thank you

Are our kids too old for showers with us? For some reason when I want to feel closer to my son i want to take a shower with him but we just sit in the water and just relax and he falls asleep. I know once he gets older it will be weird. But just curious when that will be?

My 6 month old is on aptamil acid reflux and is having such bad constipation even weaning is not helping or lactulose any other recommendations????

My little boy has suddenly came down with HFMD today, he is due to see his nan tomorrow. Is it still safe for her to come round or do I cancel? Also any advice regarding HFMD treatments greatly welcomed, my boy is really uncomfortable! X

Hi I know this is random but I’m just trying to settle something, do you think it’s a lot if your partner goes out 3 times a week while your home with the baby every single day? And he rarely (if ever) does bed and bath time or anything like that

My baby was born last month on november 2024 and I wanted to ask after the first week , he began making these grunting noises and seeming in discomfort. he would grunt more at night I have googled the symptoms and it seems to be because of trapped gas. He will grunt excessively and let out fart or poo. Has anyone el...

Not sure what else to try. Tried giving her more water, puréed pears, puréed prunes, warm bath and lots of baby massages, bicycle legs and moving hips in a circular motion. It’s released some farts but no poops. 😫

Heya my baby is 6 months on the 3rd and i have started to change for over to formula from breast milk she is currently having one bottle a day for the last 3 days. She is very very irritated and gassy and will often just keep pulling her legs up screaming (this has been happening since she was born tbh but has g...

If you were told to give up your right to have firearms- the whole country- no more guns whatsoever- and there will be no more school shootings. Would you do it.

Has anyone noticed Aptamil milk gives their babies gas My LO is having 150ml but since I’ve been giving her more she has bad gas and the poops are insane? Isit time to move on…..

Is it normal for my baby to be having a tough 3 month growth spurt she seems bloated and very fussy and uncomfortable. The only way to calm her is to rock her and feedings.

my lo often strains and the stools are solid. Sometimes scanty. I am rrally concerned. Should I seek GP appointment? What diet should she be having at this stage? She normally has an egg in the vreakfast or pancakes, puree made with yogurt banana and blueberries. mashed potatoe+boiled chicken + broccoli mushed toget...

I have both boys. I’m struggling with what to get the younger one for Xmas, we obviously have toys from my older one so he has everything and more. Developmental and fun toys so I feel bad as it seems as though he will get next to nothing. Any ideas?
