I’m currently just shy of 2 weeks PP, and struggling/in the thick of a lot of emotional feelings. It kicked it around day 5 PP where I would just start crying in the evening for no reason, since then I’ve been weepy most evenings and feeling anxious. I feel like I miss my husband even though he’s with me constantly,...

Ok can anyone help, my little girl is 11 weeks old and used to love being in the car but recently she screams the roof down, it’s the right size for her and her we’ve got two different ones she does it in, once the car is moving she sometimes settles but this is usually what I have to do to calm her (see pic) which ...

Has anyone given their 3 month old anything other than formula/ breast milk in this heat? Google/nhs says tap boiled water is fine but I’m still worried to give it to my boy. He’s breastfed during the night and on formula durning the day as I don’t have enough breast milk to satisfy him during the day. But I don’...

What are people doing with baths in this heat? I don’t know if I should do the water warm as normal or slightly cooler to cool baby down before bed?? Photo of the bubba from the other day so we don’t get lost ☺️

Anyone else’s LO really struggling with this heat at night? Baby was sleeping through perfectly up until the last few nights he’s been stirring and wide awake most of the nights, thinking it is due to the heat? Or just one of those lovely sleep regressions 🙃

Someone gave me a couple and have been the best for my son. But I can't find the brand to buy more.thank you.

How do you settle your newborns for bed? At night our girl will have her bath and I’ll give her a top up feed and start swaying her to sleep. When she’s out, I’ll transfer her to the bassinet next to me in our room but as soon as she’s in our room she just screams. She fusses and refuses to settle to the point where...

Hi mamas, please don’t judge but i am so stressed out .

Dont I don’t recall anything from last night ! I was very tired 😴 has this ever happened?

Hi all I keep waking up in the middle of the night and find myself waking up in morning on my back is there anything I can do to stop this? I never did this with my first pregnancy

My 5 month old acts like he's hungry then when I try to give him his bottle he starts arching his back and sometimes tries to push it away with his hands. He has stopped pushing it away with his hands almost all the time since I bought size 2 nipples for him. Why is he arching his back?? It is driving me insane

What tog sleeping bags has everyone got? I know they can’t use until a certain weight but unsure how many different tog sizes to get for the summer. Thank you 🫶

My baby is 11 weeks tomorrow and for the past week or so when I KNOW he's tired, and I do the usual rocking and walking around the house to put him down for a nap, for the first few minutes I am literally having to wrestle him 🤣 he's fighting it, kicking his legs and arching his back backwards, I am having to pin…

My newborn is 11 days old. Ever since we got back from hospital, my mother in law has had her. She does not know English so it’s hard to communicate. I am grateful that I’m able to recover and sleep, but I miss my baby a lot of the time as it’s her first few days. My MIL leaves in 3 weeks. Will I still be able to ...

So nervous about going out and needing to change LG as she screams and cries so so so much. Anyone else?! 😩

I’m 16 weeks today and going to a family bbq, am I allowed to go into a hot tub?

Hey ladies, my baby is 11 days old and she is my first baby. She seems to hate sleeping in her next to me crib at night. She just won’t settle! I thought it might have been that she was too small for the next to me so we brought her Moses basket up but she still won’t settle. The only way we manage to get some sleep...

Wow - I forgot how hard the 7-8 month stage is. I don't remember it being so hard with my girl first time round. My boy just won't sit still for 2 minutes. He can't fully crawl yet but is getting so frustrated trying to have a go. He keeps going onto all fours from sitting and getting stuck. I really hope we can ...

Has anyone else’s newborn been having long stretches of sleep at night. My girl is 5 days old and the past two nights she’s slept for 5 hours solid. Should I wake her for a feed sooner?

I don't know if I was expecting too much, or if mine are a bit rubbish. I have friends in different cities who get daily pictures and updates on the app. Sometimes, when I pick her up, I feel like I have to ask a million questions. I want to know what she's done, how she's been, and what she's eaten every day withou...

I really need some help please, I hope there’s someone out there that can. My daughter is 16 months old and is still breastfeeding. I wanted to stop when she turned 1 but I realised it wasn’t as easy as just stopping. She’s on the boob non stop, and I’m absolutely exhausted and in pain! She wakes up multiple times i...
