I swear I have the hardest to deal child ever to exist. She wakes up at a decent time and goes to bed at a decent time I would say her sleep has been very broken and lately hasn’t been able to settle properly until about 2am in the morning. Between 9pm - 2am she’s in and out of sleep and when she’s up she’s crying a...

I have two friends with similar age babies who both sleep through the night, and I feel like I’m the only one. He wakes every hour at best until midnight and then I’m lucky for a 2-3 hour stretch after that. He also won’t nap in a cot in the day. 😭

Hi, my 5 week old is being formula fed on Kendamil whole milk and his poos have been absolutely horrendous. They smell super strong and are slightly loose and wondered if this was normal? I know all babies are different but the poos just seem extreme! I wondered if he had CMPA but he’s never sick or spits up his milk x

We finally got her actually crawling and not dragging herself around

Back to work in just over a month and me little boy won't take a bottle Any advice for bottles for breastfeeding babies? Don't want to spend a fortune 😔

I’m thinking about stopping breastfeeding.. I’m way too stressed out taking care of baby plus cleaning up after everyone including myself. I’m not producing much and my baby is getting rashes. I’m starting to think it’s something I’m eating but I’m wayyy too tired to change my diet. Am I being selfish? When have yal...

Is anyone extra anxious about the lack of sleep they will get when baby arrives? It sounds silly because it’s an obvious thing, but I’m so worried about how I will function with such little sleep and not being to have that switch off time and it’s impacting me now as whenever I can sleep, I panic about how I won’t b...

Is it possible for a 5 month old to be talking? My mom and I clearly heard her say “hi” twice today and when she was crying I heard “mamma” three times today.

Hi mummas. My 8mo little boy has been exclusively breastfed.. apart from the odd bottle of expressed milk between 3-6m… he’s now refusing the bottle. I’d like to go out for some evenings and maybe an overnight without him at some point but I can’t see how I’m going to get there. He had a huge meltdown tonight when ...

Does anyone else struggle with really fast let down? My little one seems to really struggle with it and it makes feeding a real struggle especially at night when trying to get little one to settle for the night. It’s starting to get me down as it seems to make her really fussy and unhappy. Anyone any tips?

How have you baby proofed your cat litter box?

My little one still hasn’t started saying simple words yet, she just about says mama and perhaps the word for food and water in my language, hi, bye, no and car. I’m starting to get really concerned because I see other children her age that are saying upwards of 200 words and even forming small sentences. I try to t...

My little boy turned 1 on the 13th March. I feel like he's drinking a lot of milk and still sometimes waking wanting more in the night. How many bottles do your little ones drink?

Hi mamas. Is anyone exclusively pumping and feeding baby that way? How much are you little ones having pet feed? I’m solely pumping, not adding any formula to it or doing any on the boob. My little one is 2 1/2 weeks old and for the first time before bed had a total of 120ml in his feed. This week we’ve been...

Anyone has a hard time adjusting with mood swings? My husband is not an emotional man, so it’s been quite hard adjusting to my new needs as a pregnant woman. We ended up having a lot of fight and it scared me a lot for having such a big emotions during my first trimester. I’m afraid of what it might do to my baby 😢

Are yalls baby crawling? If so how did you help them start?

Can anyone recommend a good double pram I have a nearly 2 year old and a 14 week old

What time are your little ones going down at night? My LO is in bed for 830 after bath and a book but is still up every 2-3 hours. She naps 3/4 times in day but only has 20-30 minutes. 1hr at a push if I lay with her.

Hey, does anyone have a recommendation for a sling/baby carrier that we can take on holiday? It needs to be comfortable in hot weather and suitable for a heavier baby. Our current carrier hurts my upper back so much, I won’t be able to use it for much longer.
