So my little one just turned 6 months a couple weeks ago and I’ve started giving him rice cereal - just a tablespoon a day. He hasn’t pooped in 3 days and today he did, but it looked hard. He was also straining and grunting a lot, but thankfully not crying in pain. I’m a little worried. How much water are we meant t...

Is anyone else experiencing ‘false starts’ every time their LO goes to bed for the night? My baby is waking every 20 minutes or so and needing resettling every evening for a good few hours no matter what we try. Any tips on how to stop it? Or does anyone deal with similar? Will it end?! - wake window is on avera...

I know all HV say this won’t make baby sleep longer but has any one tried it and it’s had a positive impact on sleep? My little one for the last few months has been waking every hour - two hours. I can hardly get him to feed in the day as he is too distracted. I was wondering if giving a bottle of formula in the d...

Let’s share ideas and help each other! Mine are eggs, soup, milk, water, coconut water and porridge.

Anyone else's baby just started waking up around 5am again?? Been happening since the start of this week!

Has anyone else’s little ones started to sleep through, this is the third night my nearly 8 week old has sleep from 11:30ish until 6am, don’t want to get excited but is this the light at the end of a tunnel. Only concern is my milk supply, should I still set an alarm to pump incase this suddenly stops or enjoy the r...

2.5 year old has hit the why phase and I’m not sure what to do about it. He is on repeat and I try my best to answer every “why” but is there anything I can do differently or just have to roll with it like every other phase 🤷🏻‍♀️ Just looking for tips and tricks thanks mamas 🩵💚

Would you let your 3 year old go on a motorbike with your BD? My SO has been taking our son on his motorbike. He straddles him between his thighs and has my son wear a bike helmet. I said I no and I wasn't okay with it but he does it anyway on days that I'm working. His motorbike goes up to 50mph but he says he only...

My 20 month old is currently not sleeping at all at night time, she used to sleep through the night but for 5 weeks now she wakes up in the middle of the night screaming and I cannot calm her down, the only way I can get her to calm down and go back to sleep is when she’s brought into our bed which obviously isn’t i...

Is anyone just not sleeping throughout this whole pregnancy!? My sleep is getting worse and worse but I’m functioning with it working full time as it’s become the norm. I’m waking every hour, just wide awake. Then by 4am I can’t drop off to sleep anymore !? Please tell me when baby is here even though you wake up fo...

My son will be one on Saturday and for the last couple of weeks he has been waking just before 5am. He doesn't have a dummy and will not go back to sleep. He sits there babbling away and occasionally whimpering or crying. I'm reluctant to go in and see him before 6am because as soon as he sees me he will demand milk...

I really need a sleep sack that’s good like the dreamland… without paying $90+ 😓. pleeeease help a girl out my baby needs some weight it’s the only way he sleeps

My son stopped latching at about 16weeks so I have been exclusively pumping ever since. He is almost 8 months and my milk supply has significantly dropped. Mostly because I stopped overnight pumps and became very inconsistent. We had a rough time with sleep when he got his bottom teeth. He is mostly drinking formula...

I honesty cannot do these nights anymore. It’s 4:34, I’m sat sobbing at the side of the cot where I’ve been for 2 hours now while our girl whinges to be picked up like she does every single night. Shes never slept. She wakes up between 10 and 20 times from when she is put down at 7:30 to when she breaks me and I bri...

The last 2 weeks this has been happening and I’m now really struggling. Is this the 2 year regression? Any tips? She does usually go back to sleep around 5am for maximum of an hour.

I’m on the fence about these-help me out

It all looks so sketchy to me how she was obviously drunk and he friends didn’t look like it in the footage but left her behind w a man she just met. He also came back to the hotel without his shirt, shorts and sneakers…. I’m just wondering also if anyone saw him sleeping by the beach like he says… anyway the whole ...

My 10 week old has been in a bassinet in our room since day one. Lately though he has been kicking and flailing and restless when I put him down for the night that he’s rocking his bassinet. When is an appropriate time to transition him to his crib? His pediatrician said by 4 months but I’m not sure if it’s too soon...

I lost my entire freezer stash tonight to a power outage. 2.5 gallon freezer bags filled with breastmilk storage bags. I am beside myself. My supply since returning to work has been barely enough, sometimes a little short and now my whole safety net is gone. I don't know what to do or how to deal with this crazy fee...

No matter what I do, my baby will not sleep through the night! He’s formula fed. We’ve sleep trained, but has always needed 1-2 feeds throughout the night no matter how much we tried to sleep train him through that. We also have tried weaning him off which just makes him wake up more frequent to drink more. We’ve tr...
