So my girl has been screaming every time she goes in the car seat and for the whole time she is in it. We have the Maxi Cosi Pebble 360 and the newborn insert makes it so tight that her shoulders are being squashed inwards and she just looks so uncomfortable. I took the insert out and she is so much happier in the s...
Is anyone else's baby a milk monster!? My baby is 2 weeks old and always wants more! We pace feed and wind throughout, try distract him afterwards and soothe him but he just screams until he has that little bit more (not all the time). We have been told he requires no more than 2-3 oz for his weight. He is always hu...
When did everyone have sex after a natural birth? I’m 2.5 weeks PP and I think my stitches are gone now, still bleeding slightly but didn’t know how strict everyone was on the 6 week rule or if it was safe to do it beforehand if stitches are gone and bleeding has stopped?
I honestly feel like making a complaint... I'm 38 weeks with my 4th baby, none of my other children have been breastfed because I just don't produce milk... I don't know why and I'm not all that bothered about finding out. But STILL the midwife I saw yesterday was pushing breastfeeding on me 😠 "did you know you can…
How many times a night are your babies waking up for a bottle in the night? My little one is combination fed and has breast milk at night, however we’re going to transition to full formula as he’s so hungry all the time. He’s waking 3-4 times a night hungry and I’m actually going insane 🥱
Looking for some reassurance - are there any mammas out there that have had a baby that won’t sleep in their crib/only contact naps during the day and has successfully moved past this? And if so how did it happen? I’m really hoping this is just a phase.. :// I’m grateful that he’ll sleep in his crib by himself at n...
So I trialed something tonight but I’m feeling Mum guilt and not sure whether it was the right thing! A few nights ago I realised I keeping waking baby up at 3am ish because he is fussing but most times he was still asleep. So I read if I keep doing that then I’m not encouraging him to sleep longer stretches. So t...
Hello girls, which products did you use to wash your baby clothes? I used with my first Fairy Non bio, but don’t remember the non bio softener I used. Just want to see what’s everyone else using.
I was told yesterday that baby is growing bigger than they would expect given the pregnancy period (28+6 and she’s 3lb 6). Depending on the next growth scan I might need to be induced or have a c-section due to her size (before 40 weeks). If you have to be induced or have a c-section does your body start to change t...
I’m at my wits end and hoping anyone could help. My little girl does this tensing up with her legs and arms when she is laying flat on her back or laying side ways. But mostly when she is in the flat position. She hold her legs high and cross her arms in front of her chest, her hands and fingers are tightening/grab ...
My little girl is 14 weeks and cries every time she’s put in the car seat, distractions work for 5 minutes and then she wants out. It’s making going anywhere feel so stressful. I feel like I’ve tried everything. Has anybody had similar experiences? Photo for attention🩷
Has anyone else given their EBF baby a dummy? My baby is 2 wks old and I was struggling to look after him alone as every time I pick him up he thinks he's going to be fed, started giving a dummy yesterday, so far we are okay🤞
What blankets do you use for lo to sleep with at night? I thought we could only use Cellular blankets but I feel like it's not warm enough
Hello Is your little one saying words yet like mama / dada? Our little boy chatters away a lot but hasn't said anything of the sort Hoping to read some people's babies haven't yet Thanks
Someone please tell me how they are coping/coped with nipples that are absolutely knackered from just a few days of breastfeeding😫 I didn't get the good start with my first, but this time baby has actually been taking from me, but her latch isn't great (been referred for tongue tie) and my nipples are so sore…
I’m EBF my 4 week old and struggling with the fact that my partner can’t settle him. He literally screams whenever he picks him up unless he’s already asleep. Any tips or advice to help?
I had pictures in my mind of magical maternity leave days with walks in the pram. Cuddles on the sofa. My baby hates these things. Almost every week since my baby was born 6 months ago, my husband has had to take some time off work whilst I have a mental breakdown I'm starting to think I wasn't cut out for this
Hi moms! I’m currently in search of a new ultra compact stroller for both everyday and travel purposes. I’m thinking that the Babyzen yoyo could be my best option but I’d like to hear your opinions if you have been using it! Both good sides and bad. Thanks!!
What is everyone going for? I have seen the standalone ones where you put water in or the angelcare ones which are supports that go into the bath and no idea which to go for!
Hi! My daughter is 17 months and I absolutely love our breastfeeding journey together, I want to really only stop when my daughter is ready but I also don’t want to be feeding her when she starts school as there’s such a stigma around it! When did you or plan to stop breastfeeding your little ones please and how did...
