How to stop giving milk at night please??? My daughter is wanting 2/3 bottles of milk a night all this week and her sleep has been AWFUL since Friday last week, I’ve been having 2 hour sleep intervals and I’m so tired, she does have a dummy but she shouts milk whilst the dummy is in her mouth I try to ignore her but...

My 8 month wakes several times throughout the night and I find It's because he's cold. He's usually sleeping on his belly with arms tucked underneath. It's starting to get really cold here so we keep our home temperature at 72°. I put a short sleeve onesie under his full sleeve body suit and then a sleeveless sle...

Has anyone try upspring milk flow lactation, or is this safe for the baby I was drinking it but I’m scared cuz I read that has to consult Dr before breastfeeding

Please I need recommendations on the best whole milk options for my one year old. She’s really constipated since she started taking whole milk. I complained to the pediatrician but they said to continue and keep her hydrated. I really don’t want to keep her constipated constantly. She cry’s really bad when she’s bac...

I have an interview for grad school this week and I asked my advisor if it would be cool if I needed to nurse my 4 month old for like 15 min every couple hrs and just hand him back to my husband. He’s going to confirm but he’s pretty sure it’s going to be ok. But when I talked to my partner about it, he’s like yeah ...

Hi Girl I am a single mum with no family or support around. I actually don't talk to my family anymore because they have not been helping since I had my baby. I work full time and can only afford my baby to go to the nursery 2 days a week. I have a lot of pressure from work. I am now afraid of doing a burnout or dep...

If you do, how do you like it? Would you recommend it?

Does anybody have any recommendations for something that will help me sleep on a night, I’m 20 weeks and struggling. Being tired ontop of all the added pregnancy hormones just isn’t it 🥴

Needing a bit of advice here mums. My little girl turns 1 on Saturday and her sleep is just all over the place at the moment and me and my husband are absolutely exhausted. We think she’s going through that stage where she’s potentially needing to drop from two naps, down to one. She used to have a nap at 10am for 1...

My little one eats approx every three hours however, the last two days she’s been spitting up which she doesn’t usually. Also, sounds like a bit of reflux… Thinking I should space out her feedings a bit more. Curious how often others after feeding their littles.

Last few months 3 year old has been waking a lot in the night keeps crying and crying for no reason and I’m losing patience being 36 weeks pregnant. She used to sleep so well and now she doesn’t. She’s also really sensitive about anything, like if she had a trip at nursery and it’s a little dot of cut she will cry a...

I don’t know where to start. I have two daughters. I mess up and I don’t remember what really happened. And I’ve been taking responsibility for stuff that I don’t even know what happened. I just hear a stories. Then it doesn’t help me and I put myself in a situation where I need help.

My LO is 14 months and only taking 3-4 steps independently, he’s good and fast on his feet when using the walker or holding someone’s hand but refuses to take more than 5 steps when we let go. Also he still only babbles and speaks gibberish, we’re try to make him say “mama” or “dada” or literally anything and he’ll...

My little boy’s sleep routine is really bad, if he goes to bed at 7/8pm he is guaranteed to wake up during the night and is awake for hours even with the lights off.. Once he does fall asleep he won’t wake up until late morning or midday the next day unless I wake him earlier.. Any advice?

When will my 12 weeks old sleep. He is waking every 30 minuets to an hour all through the night and then taking half hour or so to get back to sleep. I am exhausted. He used to sleep for 2/3hours and wake for feeds but over the few weeks he has developed waking frequently and needing to be nursed or rocked back to s...

I’m in an apartment I asked for it but ugh everytime he gets home from work he is 20 million times louder than anyone in the building and I can literally hear banging and stuff dropping it’s like he’s hiding a damn murder ugh

How many of your littles have words and gestures? Our pediatrician made a huge deal about of my son’s lack of mimicking waving/pointing. We have 2 words and 1 gesture!

My baby is 12 weeks.she breastfeeds and recently started taking formula (Aptamil) we recently ran out of Aptamil and got cow and gate the premed bottle just one to try and she immediately opened her bowels. She’s back on Aptamil now and breast milk but seems like she’s constipated, she’s fussy, straining to poo and ...

Hey all! Are you little ones starting a new feisty type behavior all of a sudden?? The mornings she’s great and then afternoon/evenings, she’s been acting very frustrated and throwing little tantrums. Only thing that I can attribute it to is that she’s started walking with holding just one hand of mine and maybe she...
