My little girl is 10 weeks old and for the past 3 days she starts crying at one point in the afternoon and there’s very little we can do to stop this. It usually lasts a good 30 mins before it stops. Has anyone else experienced this at this stage and if so how long did it last? She never really cried before this so ...

Signed a mom who just almost got killed on the road because I was going the speed limit. Yes I cried and I was fucking terrified going 80 to avoid being slammed off the road. 😃👍

Ours has done this since she was couple of weeks old, now six month. She does it when she’s hungry tired, hungry or frustrated.

What are your thoughts on teaching babies to sooth themselves ? Either by crying like Ferber method or other methods out there ?

Is it worth it? I want to get one for my one year in june or for Mother’s Day but I’m not sure if the pricier ones are long lasting etc. if you got one where did you get it made?

So my baby is a month old and is a nightmare for settling! I’ve tried absolutely everything, in the day she has 20/25 minutes naps at the most and then waking up, today she’s been pretty much awake since 10am! Sometimes it takes hours to get her to sleep and with that she just fights it, I’ve tried all sorts, white ...

My 20 month old freaks out when our puppy uses the pee pad she will scream “PEE PEE” and freak out. At the dog park she will scream if she sees poop. Like almost full tantrum if it isn’t solved or if she isn’t removed. If my shirt ever rides up showing my belly it’s unacceptable and she will force me to cover it u...

Mamas I need help! This is my first baby, I’m 23 weeks and other than a few clothes, nappies and a Moses basket I’ve got nothing! This is my list (the photo has cropped off a few things that are in the list) I just want to double check I’m not missing anything before I start aggressively ordering it all off amazon!...

My little boy is now trying to get himself in position to crawl (getting on his knees) but his arms are still flat on the floor, sort of like an army crawl, when he's doing this he starts to bob his head up and down like headbanging 🤦‍♀️ obviously I'm worried about him hitting his head on the floor even though…

Had our 13 month visit from the health visitor today and she discussed maybe trying my little one in a bed instead of a cot because she’s currently sleeping with us as she absolutely hates the cot and screams to the point of being inconsolable and can’t catch a breath , she said it would be worth a try but I’m a bit...

10weeks pregnant. For weeks now I've expressed i do not feel okay. I feel empty and alone. I want to think it's just the hormones and that this will go away. I been crying every day for the past two weeks and it kills me every time my son sees me like this. Im in bed rest because i have a high risk pregnancy. I ca...

Hi ladies today my lil man had his first injections and we were booked for his second dose although we can’t make it due to us traveling on that date so we had to reschedule.Is that safe?Is it ok?Asking cos I’m a first time mum and have no idea.

Just asking at what age did you stop using a baby monitor for your little ones I know it’s more personally preference but just wanted to see what others have done really! We’re expecting our 2nd little one in the next few weeks but we have a 3 and half year old too so I was unsure whether to just move her baby moni...

Any one else’s baby ( mine is 5 weeks) only sleeping in Moses basket for 20 min max during the day when you put them down but will sleep on me for hours? She will happily sleep in her Moses basket all night. She uses sleeping bags during all sleep times.

Hiya first time mum here! I have a 6 month old who has nearly outgrown his next to me. But does co sleep with me in the bed most nights as I believe he doesn’t find the next to me as comfortable as it used to be when he was newborn. Does anyone have any recommendations on how to have a smooth move into his own room?...

My boy is 5 months old today and the past week or 2 I’ve noticed he’s much less engaged with people than he used to be. He used to be great with eye contact and be very engaged with people talking to him, smiling and babbling back Now he seems a lot more like he tries to look anywhere except a persons face most of ...
