Is my kid the only one that woke up on the wrong side of her nap today?? She’s just been yelling and screaming at us since she got up.. oh and she’s only 6 months old..

My little one is 2 months old. He refuses to nap and when he does it’s for 10-15 minutes. It’s rare to me when he actually naps for an hour or more. At night luckily he sleeps more between feeds (and I also get to rest for a few hrs) but during the day it’s all fuss and crying that are driving me crazy 😭 because I…

I’m due with #3 and my Explorer isn’t going to work anymore. What do you recommend? I personally love SUVs. Would like to be able to tow a camper too! Big trunk, bench seats and dual moonroof are must haves! Would like something with cabin talk or the back seat cameras if possible.

Just had a pretty major surgery... my mom took of a few weeks to help with the kids and take care of me. It's day two and she's exhausted! My partner not only didn't take days off, he also did not visit at the hospital, seen or helped with the kids. He hasn't even phoned to check up on them or myself. I'm angry, I'm...

I have a friend who is also pregnant (further along), I was so excited we were going to be pregnant together.

My son is 18months and his pinching and hitting got worse. At first we would tell him not to do that in a very serious way and it worked for a while. After a while it stopped working and idk what to do 😭 Another thing, if I’m on the bed he just throws himself on me and starts to attack. Is this normal? Maybe he…

Has anyone used the Molly’s Bliss sleep drops? Any pros/cons/advice?

Hello, what are you putting your baby into sleep currently? I have a 3 week old (birth weight was 8lbs 9oz) currently using a cellular blanket but no matter how much I tuck this in under mattress or round him, he’s started to kick it off. I’ve heard so many mixed options on sleep bags at this age even tho the two...

Does anyone know if we can bring a buggy free of charge on Ryanair flights, or if there are any extra fees if the child is 2 years old or older? Any personal experiences would be really appreciated! Many thanks!

My breast has somewhat come to a stop 2 months after giving birth. I increased my water intake, have enough sleep yet hardly 10ml is expressed from both breasts. I have now started drinking hottea mama (milk’s up) hopefully this helps. Any advice would be grateful please 😔

Why is it SO hard and emotional watching your child grow up ? I’m in tears all the time anymore. He’s only 3 but everything is changing and I don’t know how to cope with it. He’s my only one. I feel like anxiety all the time about it
