How often are you bathing your baby? We are bathing our 4m every 2/3 day do you think that is right. Other day someone was horrified we don't do it every night.

My 8 month old has figured out how to bum shuffle, he pretty quick at getting himself around however I’m really concerned after reading this can delay him walking. He is trying to pull himself up on furniture. And does to prefer sitting or standing to laying down. He won’t even entertain any kind of tummy time any...

Trying to get my 8 month old to crawl but whenever I put her on her belly she just seems to roll over the floor back to front instead of trying to crawl of even attempting … worried about her not meeting her next milestone

My son has his 12 week jabs later and I am absolutely dreading them as I've heard they are worse than the 8 week ones. Is this true?

LO went down for a nap this morning for the first time!! I know so many of us struggle with this and I never thought it would work. I placed him down awake in his crib with white noise - he lay there awake for 15 mins not complaining. He started moaning so I picked him up and rocked him until his eyes were shutting....

Ughhhhh can I please get your bed time routines? As in when they actually go to their room? We’ve recently moved our daughter into a ‘big girl bed’ to see if that helped (it’s not going well 🫠) she just wants to play or needs a wee or a poo or wants other people in the house (she is smashing the delay tactics😂)…

Hey, I’m 24 weeks and have been getting hip pain - especially at night. It’s waking me up as I have to constantly swap sides, and I’m guessing it’s only going to get worse as I get bigger. So far I’ve bought a mattress topper, the bbhugme pillow, and the babymoov sleep belt, but none of these things really work for ...

Does anyone use these pouches thinking of switching to these I’ve tired Ella’s but she’s not a fan of most of them so wanting to try these anyone got good things to say about these pouches?😋

Anyone else struggling with the 6 month old stage? Baby has gone from sleeping 10-12 hours a night, to anything from 1 to 4 wakes a night and wakes easily when put back in his crib. This has been going on over a month now. I am really struggling during the night with the wake ups and feel myself getting frustrated ...

Hi everyone, just wondering if anyone is experiencing a reduction in feeds? My little one is 16.5 weeks and over the last couple of days is only taking 2-3 oz every bottle (she usually has 5 6oz bottles a day). She has no temperature but we are experiencing the 4 month sleep regression. She’s just turning her head a...

Genuine thoughts about online4baby? Now called the Nursery Store.

Does anyone else’s baby just not nap during the day at all unless out and about in pram? 😩

Hey mamas, I’m due in April and we’ve started looking at prams and travel sets and finding it so overwhelming with all the different choices! We’ve had a look at mamas and papas so far and I quite like the Flip XT’s and the Ocarro but I also really like the look of My Babiie MB450i but I don’t think I can find it ...

Does anyone baby insoluble cry when they are out especially around strangers . It’s been like this for months now and I am trapped at home . Any advice on how to manage babies with stranger anxiety 🥺

My little girl has always loved her sleep. She had Hand foot and mouth disease last week so is likely needing the rest. However it's now gone 10am. She went to bed at around 8pm. My maths leaves a lot to be desired but that's 14 hours of sleep. Should I wake her or just leave her to it? She usually wakes around 8am.

I combi feed my 9 week old with breastfeeding and top ups of expressed milk or formula but he’s recently started rejecting the bottle. He just screams and refuses to suck on the teat. The only time he has taken it is when he’s really hungry and I offer it before the breast, but it’s not consistent. He’s also rejecti...
