Milk during the night

Is anyone else’s little one still waking for milk in the night!? My little boy can still wake up twice a night for a bottle of milk and no matter what I try he still doesn’t sleep through! Please tell me I’m not alone and if anyone has any tips please share 💕

Larger baby nappy suggestions

My boy is almost 5 months, weighs around 9kg and has been in Pampers since birth. He is in the 98th percentile. He currently wears size 4 and has only been in these for about 3 weeks before he has started leaking up the back! I have always sized up when this happens as it solves the issue. Does anyone recommend anot...

Help please!! What do I do with today’s schedule?!

So my son was awake 3-6am and woke up at 8am. He then refused his nap and had some quiet down time in his room. What time do I put him down to bed? Usually he wakes around 6am, naps 12pm for approx 1.5hours and bed around 7:30-8pm. I have no idea what to do today and this has never happened! Is this a regression?!

Reassurance - sorry it’s turned into a long one 🤣

Whenever I come on this app, I always see people’s babies (born June or July 2024) hitting milestones, rolling around, some even crawling. I can’t help but feel a bit worried sometimes as my LG who is 8 months in 5 days, doesn’t roll or crawl etc. She went through a short period of rolling from back to front but no ...

Are we still using sound machines?

We introduced a white noise machine pretty early on (like around 2/3 months) and are still using it. I’ve turned down the volume a lot and cover it with a blanket so it’s more muffled. I only started doing this after I read that most people wean their babies off before 1?! More just curious- are we still using them…

Baby not interested in feeding

My girl has always been formula fed, but for the last two days she just doesn’t seem interested. She will take a few mouthfuls and then just turn her head side to side to get away from the teat, or kick her legs about lots. She is having such little milk, should I be worried? She has only had 4.5oz so far today, no ...

Formula

My little boy is on kendamil formula and he’s really struggling to bring wind up, he’s uncomfortable & unsettled. We’ve been using infacol which does make a little difference. I’ve read they changed their ingredients? What formula are your LOs one? And Is it worth changing ?

Kids in the same room

I have an 18 month old and a 4 month old. It’s time to get our 4 month old out of her bassinet and move her into my oldest’s room. We only have a 2 bedroom house and can’t fit a crib/pack and play in mine and my fiancé’s room. Has anyone had to put their infant in the same room as their toddler? How was the transiti...

Best strollers for tall toddlers

Looking for recommendations on light weight strollers, he has his pushchair still mamas and papas and it's still great, but looking for a light weight one for other days, tried the silver cross pop but I'm not a fan, squeaky wheels and feels flimsy and cheap, my nearly 2 year old is very tall so need one that's fair...

Feel like I'm going insane regarding nappies

My son never leaks at home, unless he has a reallllly long sleep which is rare. But every single time we leave the house we leaks!! Like I changed him bum and an hour later he was soaked....he has nappy pants otherwise he'd definitely leak due to not being on properly😂 I put them on correctly I just have no idea…

Another nap transition post

Been in the 2 to 1 nap transition for the last 84 years now (may or may not be exaggerating) Last few weeks the morning nap has been a short cat nap leading to total refusal of an afternoon nap which all equals a grumpy baby for the rest of the day My problem is that this baby will nap for 30-40 mins max at home. It...

Emotionally and mentally drained

Absolutely sobbing as I type this. My baby girl is almost 8 weeks old and I feel so inadequate. In the first few days, everyone was telling me "it's fine, you'll figure it out, don't worry you'll come to understand your baby" Except I still don't, and it is driving me completely nuts. I have no idea what she wants, ...

Car seat recommendations

My daughter finally outgrew her Joie iSize which we had in our small car. We moved her Spin 360 into this car from our bigger one and bought the Joie Every Stage for that car instead - the thought process being that this would then last her past 4 years old. I’m disappointed in the Every Stage because the isofix o...

10 month old not moving

My daughter has just turned 10 months and is not crawling, not pulling up to stand, has rolled a handful of times but not for months, hates tummy time but trying to persevere! Is anyone else's the same? She can push up on her arms for a short period of time but has never brought her knees up. I'm so worried she's ne...

Expressing for the odd bottle

Help! I exclusively breastfeed and need to pump some milk for a couple of bottles so I can leave the baby with my partner. Every time I’ve tried, my little one is so grouchy and unsettled for the rest of the day. It’s as if the milk I express results in him not getting enough in subsequent feeds. I don’t want to ...
