Does anyone have a Joie chrome and do you recommend? Why/why not? I want to get a new pushchair that parent faces and also world faces so I don’t have to change it again but I don’t know what to go for? Baby is 4 months so also needs to recline fully Needs to be compact and easy to fold and good for city use but als...

Hello! My baby was born on 8th July. She has never been a sicky baby until now. The past couple of days she has projectile vomited her first feed of the day; yesterday morning she did it mid feed and then again while I was getting dressed (being on her back probably didn’t help). Also last night I fed her in the nig...

I really don’t want to sleep train so please don’t comment saying how well it worked for you and that I should try it. My baby is 6m (7m on Saturday) and all he wants all the time is to be picked up. He stands up in his crib crying until we pick him up. I have tried not picking him up and soothing him in his crib ...

I’ve got the first Health Visitor visit tomorrow, what happens at this appointment and how long does it last?

how do i stop this?! we put our 15 week old to bed at 7.30pm and she's usually asleep by 8.30pm after we do our bedtime routine (pjs, nappy change, massage, book, feed) - she's been waking up at midnight and 4am ish, but then after the 4am feed will only really sleep for another hour max... what do we do to prolong ...

Anyone having any trouble with Aldi nappies? Everyone seems to rave about them however, my baby has been in them since birth (he’s 3 weeks old on Tuesday) and I’ve noticed no issues until now. He wouldn’t ever lay down off me or dad for the first couple of weeks so we didn’t notice but now when we lay him flat on ...

Those with babies already on a 1 nap can you share your rough routine please.. I think we may be near.

Just ordered an entertainment center and toilet seat. Whats the latest thing you guys ordered?

My baby (4 weeks) is either feeding, sleeping or he’s crying. We have about 30 minutes a day of him being awake and not on the boob where he isn’t crying, is this colic? This has been the case since 3 weeks.

Hi, our 2yo boy won’t sleep through the night , he would go to sleep around 8pm for 2/3 consecutive hours then wake up several times during the night , he doesn’t want to be in his bedroom at all if he sleeps with us then he would sleep with no problem, we try to avoid it as he just moves too much and so me and my p...

Hi girls! Wanting to start introducing formula to my EBF baby. In your opinions which is the thinnest/lightest formula for a BF baby?

Hey mamas! I’m looking for a baby toothpaste for my 10 MO. Basically the one which is safe if swallowed, as I can’t get him to spit. Any recommendations please? Also, any tips on getting baby to spit? We tried brushing in front of him, but then all he wants to do is grab our toothbrush instead of his.

We started weaning baby 6 days ago. So far we've only done pouches as we've been moving house at the same time and it's been chaos. She absolutely loves her food but yesterday and today she is hating her milk. We make 180ml bottles and we're lucky if she has 90ml of them. She's waking in the night starving and then ...

My son’s woken up after a 6hr stint, sucking his thumbs etc because he’s so hungry! But he won’t drink milk?? I’ve noticed a decrease in his milk drinking He drinks 4-5 ounces every 3hrs Please help

I have really been making an effort getting LO to sleep in next to me for the first nap of the day. He will take 15 mins to settle and then only sleep for 30 mins. Whereas if he was on me he would sleep for an hour. I feel like he needs the sleep so I should just do contact but I really want him to go down for naps....

I’m a bed sharing EBF mama who loves having her baby nurse to sleep and help himself to night feeds as he wishes (these days it is about two night feeds, one around 1 am and another around 5 am). I haven’t gotten my period back and I read that stopping night feeds might help with this. I’m not in a huge rush, but I ...

Is anyone else still breastfeeding and plans to continue after 1? My LO still feeds through the night and for naps and can’t see this stopping anytime soon!
