Breastfed baby barely poos

I was told that breastmilk is like a natural laxative but for some reason my little one very rarely goes. I find that when I’m exclusively feeding him from the breast he won’t go at all but if I give him a bottle of expressed mil

Non-stop whining and screaming

It's never ending. He quite literally doesn't stop screaming. He maybe has some good days, but everything sets him off. I seriously don't know what to do anymore.

2 under 2 prams

Can anyone recommend a pram for a 16 month old and suitable for a newborn - I liked the look of the joie stroller but it doesn’t look suitable for a newborn but I don’t overly know what I’m looking for 😂 Preferably folds relatively small to fit in the car boot. Thank you

14 months at the end of the week…

Anyone’s little not walking?? I feel like we are falling behind. My little dude can crawl at mock speeds, climb the furniture, bear crawling is his new favorite method of transportation, stand on his own without pulling up and holding anything, and usually stay there for upwards of a minute. Constantly cruising furn...

Episiotomy help

This is probably TMI but I am 6 weeks postpartum and I had an episiotomy which opened up on day 5. It was left to heal naturally on its own. Today for some reason I got the worst diarrhoea ever and I am absolutely 100% sure it got in my episiotomy. I don’t know what to do. Will I get an infection?

Anaemia or is this just life as a parent? 😂

Now that my daughter is 15mo and sleeping through the night more regularly, I thought I’d feel refreshed and energised. But instead I’m finding myself incredibly fatigued despite getting more sleep. I try my best to eat healthy, limit caffeine and get outside every day so I don’t feel like I should be this tired. ...

New grumbling sound

My 18 week old has just started doing this deep grumbly whiney sound, it almost sounds like the kind of noise a dog would make if that makes any sense? 😂 I’m not sure whether it’s just a noise he’s learnt to make, or it’s an uncomfortable in pain sound relating to teething? Anyone’s else little one sounding like a…
