I just want to get this off of my chest as it's weighing me down, but I planned to exclusively use breastmilk, mainly through breastfeeding but also pumping. It has not gone that way at all and I'm feeling so, so guilty. First 3 days in hospital with baby were just breastfeeding, and every midwife who came in correc...

I have a 2 & 4 year old and I am just about to lose it. I feel like i’m so easily irritated and lose my patience way more than i’d like to admit. How are you all dealing with mom rage and irritability?

My LG has had a snotty nose for a few days, maybe a week and it's not really effected her but last night she was up nearly every 2 hrs. She goes from happy to agitated in minutes today, she's done so many smelly nappies today, she's actually slept for longer then 30 minutes today. Managed to stay awake for an hour b...

My daughter has bronchiolitis, we are on day 3 and she's very chesty and unsettled. She's been sleeping and taking 40ml of milk every 2 hours (as per paediatrician recommendation). We are using nasal saline to keep her nose clear as well as a snot sucker to clear it. We are taking all measures to make her comfort...

We've been through phases where he has seemed like he is dropping the nap before but this time seems it's for real.

Scary thing happened to me. Woke up around 5 am to fussy baby. She had a wet diaper so I changed her and then put her back. Couple minutes later she was fussy again and I know she wasn’t hungry cause I fed her 15-20 min prior. Anyways, she normally sleeps in her crib Next to our bed. This time I propped up some pi...

How are other parents coping with the never ending drag of their newborn preemie being in hospital. I consider myself fortunate that my 34 weeker was born a good weight and relatively well. She's overcome a lot so far but we keep being set back by reflux that hasn't yet responded to treatment. They keep saying "give...

I ADORE my son. But between the constant hitting, throwing, tantrums, crying, destroying things, demanding food, rejecting food and generally causing chaos I am finding this age (15 months) the hardest yet. Anyone else? (I’m also 8 weeks pregnant with no. 2 which may not be helping as my energy levels are through th...

My boy has gone from sleeping in his cot all night to sleeping the first hour or two and then crying to get into bed with me(even then he’s still pretty restless)! It’s been since the end of October. Is anyone going through the same and come out the other side? I feel like it’s a regression which has turned into the...

Anyone else suffer with bacne? I don’t suffer with it when I’m not pregnant.. just wondering if anyone has used anything to help it or do you just leave it alone?

My baby is sick constantly as keeps catching his sisters nursery germs 😢 current illness involves lots of coughing when he’s asleep - he’s having very short naps but only having two a day still !!

My 9 week old is combi feeding on demand and currently drinks 120ml formula approx every 2 hours during the day and topped up with breastfeeding. Sometimes stops at the 90ml mark.
