It’s my dads 60th and he’s having a party next month, probably starting around 7, my sons bedtime is 7, but i obviously want him there and involved as it’s his grandads birthday, what should I do, do I take a pram and let him sleep there? Or should I try and squeeze in another nap later in the day so he stays awake ...

So my daughter goes with her dad two days a week from 11-5. I’ve been having issues with him refusing to give her naps and refusing to help potty train her (because, in his words, he’s too lazy to take her upstairs to the bathroom). So my problem is this, he told me yesterday at some point he fell asleep without kno...

Any advice on how to get my nearly 1 month old to sleep in her next to me crib or Moses basket? At the moment we are co sleeping and as much as I LOVE having her with us.. I’m constantly on edge! She just won’t settle unless she’s next to us or on our chest/arms.. even during the day.. Any advice would be amazin...

How am I supposed to cook, or eat, or shower, or wash up? How do you do those things if you have a 1 year old screaming at your feet. I just don't do the things 🤷🏻‍♀️

Hi girls, My little Darcie was born via C section on 6th Jan - 20 days early! We're in love but my God I'm finding it hard. Anyone else? My first is 20 months and I'm struggling so much with mum guilt for her, toddler tantrums while having a newborn (even more so now I think it's a bit of jealousy) and being stuck ...

Hi ladies, Has anyone got any tips on moving little one into their cot in their own room. Our LG is fast outgrowing her next2me crib and our room is not big enough to fit her cot in. LO still wakes 2/3 times a night for a feed as they are ebf so I’m getting a chair in there to feed in the night! We have an establi...

So before my husband and I had a baby we would have sex 2-3 times every week. It was great, worked for us. But ever since having our baby we maybe have sex once or twice a month. My husband tells me that sex isn’t huge for him and he doesn’t feel like he needs it as much anymore. I’m dying over here.. I’ll try initi...

I know that a lot of people feel like it’s made into a competition like “my baby slept trough from this young” “my baby slept through even younger” tit for tat. But I am genuinely curious please be honest. My baby has slept through the night from 2 months old I have given him his last bottle at like 9/10 pm and he’s...

Anyone else feel like October baby's regression is really starting? Symptoms of it I'm seeing include... Waking more frequently at night (putting herself back to sleep mostly which I'm so lucky/grateful for), taking longer to get to sleep, being much clingier than usual, going 0-100 with crying when she never usuall...

This is just a vent about how my partner doesn’t want me to breastfeed in public. So basically I have always wanted to breastfeed. And I’ve stuck with it. But he always says about how we have to take bottles of milk with us when we go out. And then today he’s going on about how formula would be easier because we c...

I’ve noticed race is classified very differently outside of America so I was curious. Do you understand race in the U.S.? For example. Terms like white passing, one drop rule, and brown paper bag test)

Question header asks if all can I install the isofix base for the cat seat in the cat or are we better off waiting better to the due date? I know with the cat seat itself if we got in an accident we’d have to get a new one but unsure about the base

First time mum, due in 4 weeks and have absolutely no idea what size nappies to buy? I thought it would be more simple than this but there are soooo many sizes for newborns!! It's the only thing I haven't yet got ready and it's stressing me out big time, my partner said we'll just get a small pack for now and when s...

So my LO has been diagnosed with reflux and is on omeprazole and has been for some time however we are still having issues with feeding she’s very fussy like she wants it but it’s to uncomfortable for her to drink, I’ve changed her milk from cow and gate to cow and gate comfort colic and constipation as she suffers ...

What time are you putting your 7 month old to bed?

Has anyone successfully given their babies a dummy? We have tried a few times and he seems to hate it…. Any advice?

How often do you do a bath? Baby is 5 weeks old!

My baby will happily sleep in someone’s arms but the minute she’s put down she cries- she’s only 7 weeks old. Has anyone else had same issue- and how did you resolve ??

Omg how horrific, I had to take my girl for her jabs today without my husband and it broke my heart hearing her scream! No one told me there was 4😭💔 Since being home (roughly 6 hours) she has been yelping in pain every now and again is this normal? I’m so worried, did anyone’s little one become ill after and how…

We had our review today (11 months exactly) and got told because little one eats 3 meals a day to stop the morning bottle and only give one just before bed. I thought the formula was vital until their one. Do I listen or keep doing one in the morning too?
