Anyone requesting MMR vaccine to be delayed to later on until the kid is 2-3yrs old? Our baby is not in nursery and we are thinking of asking to delay MMR and get a shot pre school due to personal preferences. Just looking if anyone is doing similar and if doctors argued a lot

Hey guys, can anyone recommend a carrier that they use for their 17 month old please? I used a red kite one (recommended for Hip Dysplasia) when he was little, but he's out grown it. Would appreciate any recommendations. Thank you

Day 6 and baby girls umbilical cord has fallen off. Does this look okay or should I be worried? Thanks in advance.

So i know this is probably a bit of a weird one and I’m guessing no one else in the group has tried but i figured i’d post anyway on the off chance, basically my little boy is 4months old and has been exclusively formula fed from birth but he’s struggling so much with it he’s currently on his 6th formula so far beca...

recently decided to start bed sharing with my 4 month as he won’t settle in the next2me and i’m just not getting any sleep. can anyone just give me some top tips? do i need a rail? he can roll so how do i ensure he doesn’t roll out of bed? i’ve seen a few things online to say that rails are only needed after 18 mo...

Anyone feel one and done because of postpartum? I wanted so many kids before but don’t think it would be fair on my kid for me to go through it again

My girl will be 12 weeks this week she used to sleep from 10pm till at least 5/6, last night she was up at 2, 5 and again at 7. Is this a phase? Am I putting her to bed too late? I’m exhausted 😩

Someone in my husband’s family had a baby around the same time I did. We were respectfully exchanging stories and I shared that it’s exhausting to be exclusively breastfeeding (my baby doesn’t take bottles/ I don’t pump). She said that exclusively breastfeeding is hard for her too and that she hates when she is out ...

Hi! I am pregnant with my second and for a list of reasons, I want to try breastfeeding and expressing so that my husband can bond and feed baby. My first was exclusively formula fed because I wasn't comfortable with breastfeeding. I'm a little terrified and could use all the advise I can get with how people found b...

Safe to say after clambering up the stairs multiple times baby girl is having a nice long nap after tiring herself out🤣

Looking for some better toys for my 7 month old, he’s getting bored of all the baby toys now! He can sit but doesn’t really like tummy time and can’t crawl yet. We’ve got some stacking cups so after a few more bits along the same lines, preferably small so we can transport them easily when we go out for the day. ...

Baby boy is 3 weeks old today! Partners is officially back to work and as of next week he is back to staying away for 2 nights! First of all how are you all getting on! I am so ready for a little bit of normality however I’m trying not to wish the days away, I still don’t feel 100% recovered yet I was hoping to be...

My daughter has been waking up every morning at 5:00 when she used to always wake up around 7:00. Im not sure why she’s suddenly waking up so early or what to do to fix it. It usually takes her awhile to go back to sleep too which is unlike her. Any tips?

Is anyone else’s little one just not crawling yet? She’s 9 months and 1 week and she’s trying so hard but just can’t quite manage to coordinate her arms and legs and just bangs her feet against the floor

I’m not sure if it’s a normal behaviour but my 2 year old just ignores his baby brother (now 4 months old). He strokes his head here and there but that’s it. Nothing negative just the way it is. I spend as much time with him as I can, also trying to involve him but he’s not interested. Anyone who went trough this, p...

I have always through my baby has had CMPA but now I’m not really sure… He has silent reflux which is alot more manageable now than it used to be (we aren’t taking anything for this either), he often gets mucous in his poo (but now I’m thinking is this because he’s been really badly teething and also when he’s not...

Hi; my baby is 5 weeks old today and I’ve gotten a lot of mixed advice on Co sleeping. I noticed a lot of you say in this group that you co sleep with your baby so this may be a silly question, but do you guys just put your baby on the bare mattress next to you or do you have a bassinet or something in the bed for t...

Please looking for some reassurance 😫 My just turned 1year old fell from our bed when sleeping, he literally cried for 5 seconds till I picked him up and went straight back sleep. The way I feel I could cry! It’s never happened I’ve always not been fully asleep if he’s in our bed (light sleep) but I must of went…

Anyone else just grateful for nap time because their toddler is just livid alllllll the time?!? I'm so tired!

Hi, where do you guys get your nursing bras? I’ve been looking into some at m&s and H&M but not sure if they’re any good
