I go back to work on the 14th and don’t want to deal with breast pumping at work. It’s just too much of a headache honestly. But I’m not sure how to *stop* breast pumping. I assume I can’t do it cold turkey? I leak too much if I go too long without pumping. Do I just space it out longer and longer until I don’t need...

My lo is asking for feeding every 2-3 h during night time and she is 10 weeks 🥲 I keep hearing around babies at this age sleep almost all night but I still keep waking up every 2 h .. Am I the only one?

I know it’s waterproof, that’s not what I’m asking.

My baby is 10 months and 2 weeks and can’t crawl🥲 Is this normal??

Hi all, what is your typical feeding schedule, I.e. frequency and amount of oz across a typical day please?

My LO is 4.5 months old and is EBF. Starbucks Brown Sugar Oatmilk Shaken Espresso has a chokehold on me. I would get a 1/2 caf once in a while and would notice, without fail, my LO would be a fuss bucket the next day. So I was just drinking one cup of chai in the morning since it was a more mellow caffeine (from wha...

Is anyone else nipples really sore. I am 3 weeks and 3 days postpartum. I am expressing the milk then giving it to my baby through a bottle. I am currently finding after expressing every 2 hours that my nipples are so sore that when it's time to pump again it hurts. I only have it on level 1 atm as that's all I can ...

Hi ladies! I have been exclusively pumping for 6.5 months. My supply has slowly dropped but now I'm lucky to get 10oz a day. I've tried the vitamins, cookies, power pumping, nothing worked. I'm considering domperiodone but it seems to have some wicked side effects. Plus with a 6 Month old, I think ill find it hard t...

My 4.5-month-old has suddenly started refusing the bottle. He had the flu last week, and ever since, he completely refuses to take it. I was breastfeeding while also giving him a bottle 2–3 times in 24 hours, but now he won’t take formula at all. He just pushes the teat out with his tongue and cries until I offer th...

So I've had to move my boy (5 months old) into his cot tonight, he's outgrown both of his moses baskets, extremely cramped in them both and I don't co-sleep through the night due to my disability. I'm worried because he can roll back to front but not front to back, and he likes to just lie face down?. He has put h...

My baby has cmpa and a corn allergy but those have been cleared from his diet for months. Hes crying uncontrollably when going to sleep out of the blue acting gassy. I have to be honest sometimes it’s so hard to keep my cool. How do you keep from getting frustrated?? I have a very needy two year old as well who has ...

How often are we changing our babies diapers at night?

After my first baby 2.5 years ago I struggled BAD with milk supply issues. Just when I thought I could build a stash, my milk production levels would drop so low I had to use the milk I just froze that week. Latching? Forget about it, Supplementing with formula? Sounded cool but my daughter would throw up and become...

Any recommendations for pacifiers? My baby hates them all so far I tried : MAM Dr. brown nuk

My son is nearly 15 months and my pediatrician said if they’re not walking then it’s cause for worry. He takes maybe 5-6 steps then wants to crawl. Hes been doing that since 12m. Does anyone have some tips so I can help him out?

My baby just started day care and won’t nap for longer than 45 minutes. At home he does 2 hours. Anyone else? And tips? He’s on a one nap schedule at home and at day care

I have heard some people say to offer the baby water in the night when they get up instead of milk to help get rid of the night feed. Has anyone tried this?

Just wondering if anyone in Gloucester area is selling their pram? They’re so expensive brand new so thought it would be worth asking. Looking for one where the seat can easily convert from laying down basinette for new born to sitting up right for toddlers as I’m looking to share it between my new born and toddler ...

I know we shouldn't compare children! However at 16 months old my son could say so much, my daughter only says coco-menloo” … health visitor said not worry she is still young… but I am worried!

5 month old keeps scratching or rubbing face. Her nails are trimmed but she somehow always manages to scratch herself. She's also rubbed her forehead so much the skin is really sore. I think she does this partly as a soothing mechanism. How do I get her to stop?
