My 8 month old has figured out how to bum shuffle, he pretty quick at getting himself around however I’m really concerned after reading this can delay him walking.

Anyone else? (I’m also 8 weeks pregnant with no. 2 which may not be helping as my energy levels are through th...

Has your babies started crawling, attempting and failing? Just want some numbers. I feel like my baby is the only one not crawling right now and it worries me.

I was diagnosed with PPA when my girl was 6 weeks old and am still quite heavily medicated so please go easy with the comments! I am having a panic that my little one is not really saying words.

My son used to speak extremely clearly and knew lots of words but now he just babbles and makes noises. I am unsure if it's because he's started nursery or because of his younger sister but it seems like as the next month comes he's going backwards development wise. Has anyone got any advice?

Is anyone’s toddler still not talking in full sentences? My toddler says around 400 words and can say a few phrases, but isn’t talking in full sentences… should I worry?

I’m not sure whether I’m being dramatic or if it is a genuine concern I should be having, my four month old stayed at my MIL home for one night last week ( they have a dog ) since he’s come back he’s been making panting/ wheezing sounds every now and then, it isn’t constant but it’s like he’s imitating a dog?😂…

His s...
