My little one is 16 weeks and her feeding schedule has gone wild. I try and offer her 5oz every 3 hours during the day. She sleeps through with no more than 1 night feed.

My little boy who’s 15.5 months old religiously wakes up at 5am. We have tried a later bedtime, and it doesn’t work. He has one nap, anywhere between 1-2 hours long. Does anyone have tips of how to get him to sleep longer? He wakes up a couple times in the night just to be laid back down and he goes back to sleep...

My baby girl is 1 month and 3 weeks old. She had an allergic reaction to aptamil when she was about 4 weeks old. She went on this new milk and has been perfectly fine until now.

What's everyone using for babies toothpaste? I worry about flouride because baby might just swallow it. Does anyone use a xylotol toothpaste for babies?

My little boy is 4 weeks and has started pooing once a day or some days not at all. Up to about 2 weeks he was pooing 4/5 times a day. Is this normal?

Any recommendations? We went to look at prams today for the first time, no idea where to start. Really liked the feel of the iCandy peach 7 and the Egg 3 but not sure if I’m drawn to what looks nice rather than what’s most practical?! For reference we live in a town where we can walk most places and also have the ...

Hi lovely mamas Has anyone started using a pillow for their toddlers yet? Not sure when I should be?

Hi ladies, my girl is nearly 6 weeks and I just can’t get into any type of feeding routine with her. More often than not she wants feeding 4 or 5 ounces every couple of hours! I try her with the dummy in between feeds but she just won’t have any of it she just screams the place down till I feed her. In this normal? ...

When my boy has been round the grandparents for a day, he'll come through the front door calling my name and really happy to see me initially and then he'll start crying and throwing a tantrum for a few minutes. Does anyone else's child do this and do you know what it means?

Ok so this is probably my own doing but my boy is in a pretty solid routine, generally in bed for 7pm and likes to sleep in his bed, very light sleeper. We just left a family party (in laws) to get him to bed and I felt really judged for not just letting him run till he dropped or just ‘pop him down upstairs.’ Wo...

How much is everyone’s 4 months old drinking during a 24 hour period? My little one is only having 5 bottles of 180ml and will average around 650-750ml a day. She doesn’t wake up during the night for feeds. I’m just wondering if she is having too little? She is only small 9th on the centile and she is following the...

Is anyone little ones already in a sleeping bag? Baby girl is nearly 3 weeks old and is currently just sleeping with a blanket.
