I’m exclusively breastfeeding my 5 week old baby and want to start pumping for 1 bottle a day. How many ml’s do I need to pump for 1 bottle? Thanks x

Any other 11 months old not crawling or walking yet?

Our baby girl is almost 2 weeks old now, and I’m feeling extremely overprotective. Having visitors over is honestly draining to me, mentally and emotionally. I find that I don’t like sharing our daughter, and I hate when people want to hold her for long periods of time. I get that it’s important for grandparents to ...

Anyone else having really down days?? The last few days I've just felt really shit and everything is making me want to cry. I'm an emotional person anyway but I feel like people are just nitpicking at everything I do recently.

How is everyone dealing with them if they’re seeing them? Our little boy does not like transitions/stopping what he’s doing/not being able to do something he’s asked for. Since 2.30 he’s had a meltdown because I didn’t play him a video on my phone (just the Bluey themesong as he’s obsessed with music but want to st...

Is there such a thing as a rear facing stroller without all the other inserts? My 4 month old is quite tall and growing out of her carry cot pram, but I’m not quite ready for her to be world facing just yet. I don’t really want a pram that comes with a carry cot as she likes to sit up now. Pic of my girl sat up in ...

Though I am proud of his awesome gross motor skills, I am just as nervous of him hurting himself! He fell a few times but yet still determined to keep standing up 😂 (such a boy) It’s like if I leave him for so long he will find a way to stand up somehow. So, I decided to put him in the crib and this is what he…

What are your little ones’ wake windows looking like now? He always seems to be ready for a nap after 2 hours but doesn’t sleep longer than 1 hour so I wonder if I should try to stretch them a little and see if naps go longer too

Hey guys so I posted a few weeks ago asking about formula. I’m going back to work next month and my baby is breastfed. For reference I work night shifts on weekends and my baby still has milk at night. That’s why I am trying to give him formula during the nights. However I no longer produce enough to pump and brea...

Hi all, My LO is almost 8 months now and he keeps biting my nipple at every feed, I’m so scared to feed him haha. I have tried so many things like: saying ow, yelping, pushing face into boob, saying no, immediately stopping the feed and putting him down, unlatching. It doesn’t matter what I do he just laughs at m...

My little boy is 4 months old and we recently introduced a dummy as he was really struggling to settle for naps in the day resulting in him being hysterical and crying so much. He was also sucking his thumb constantly making it really sore. My MIL doesn’t like dummy’s and keeps making comments and it’s really gett...

My daughter is 7 weeks old tomorrow and screams like she's in constant pain, she's on gaviscon, colief, grip water and sma alfamino but nothing is working, she's only ever settled when she's asleep and when she's awake she's only happy for a few minutes before the screaming and arching her back and clenching her fis...

Any good or bad experiences with pumping and 🍃

Girls I’m fed up of the mum tum already. Has anyone started trying to get rid of it? Clothes don’t fit

So my partner is in therapy for anxiety and depression and I'm not the biggest fan of his therapist, and he doesn't go regularly. I feel like I have to nag him about going. Anyway, my partner HATES my sister. Currently, at the point that her existing in the same space is an issue. The problem is we live with her (...

My son started experiencing big bald spots a few months ago to the point we had to shave everything off and now recently his eyebrows started falling off..his dermatologist put him on a steroid cream but it’s barely working..any moms have any advice on this or going through the same thing?please share!💕

Hello Girlies, My LO is exclusively on formula since she was born. Now she is almost 3 months old and whoever sees her says she is thin and not that chubby like a baby who feeds on breast milk. I want to know that babies who are on formula milk don't gain much weight ? Are they average weight gainers ? How do I inc...

I'm finding all kinds of conflictingbadvice online. The most confusing that it depends on the consistency rather than frequency, but she hasn't pooped so I don't know the consistency. She's been going 4 times a day until a couple weeks ago, then we suddenly had some days when she'd only go once, others where she'd s...

Hi everyone!! I’m so blown away by the cost of strollers and car seats! We of course want to invest in something safe and durable, but more on the affordable side. Does anyone have recs aside from the standard uppa / nuna combinations? OR, If you have something pricey, convince me it’s worth it!

My 7 month old boy, who is EBF, doesn't seem to be satisfied with his milk anymore. He gets frustrated after a feed and will eat loads of solids straight after. Could this mean I no longer produce enough milk for him? Should I supplement with formula? He started waking frequently for a feed too, which led to cosleep...
