Can a baby be sick through teething pain? My daughter was sick early hours this morning and I thought she may of had a bug, but she’s absolutely fine, full of energy, she’s eaten toast and biscuits a couple of hours ago and she’s held everything down. She’s got 5 big back teeth coming in all at once and she’s been u...

Used to be small thought was teething now it's like this. Anyone experienced this

Can I introduce spicey food to my 7 month old? I am making chilli con carne for tea. Can she have some blended? Also can I give her rice?

This is my little boys fave toy, he’s almost 2 and loves building the blocks, driving the train, playing with the people figures, arranging my colour…everything about it. It’s probably the only thing he will play any length of time on his own with. Any suggestions for similar I could get him for Christmas/his bday?...

My little boy will be getting a Tonies box for his birthday, what characters would everyone recommend? He loves anything animal related

Hi everyone, was wondering if anyone knows about uc and if you start studying full time, do they close your claim?

Help, I’m beside myself with worry! My 9 month old is teething pretty bad and has a cold so we gave her some ibuprofen this morning. I normally give her 5ml of calpol as that’s the recommended dosage for her age, and I was so sure that it was the same for ibuprofen that I didn’t even think to check the box. I by cha...

My baby is 10 weeks. Started sucking on his fists a few weeks ago but is doing it much more now and his little cheeks are flushed. Could he be teething or is it too early?

I'm wondering if anyone else is in this position. My 17 month old has been teething for the last week (I think they're her fangs coming through?) And also snotty and coughy. This week has been awful to say the least, it's like she hates me! 😪 she's always been cuddly with me and playful with me, but this week she…

So my little boy has just turned one!🥳 and we’re trying to transition him to cows milk from formula (a challenge!) but he’s so hungry in the morning I feel like he needs a little snack when he wakes. The last 2 mornings we’ve given him his cows milk and a banana but he’s still hungry! His nursery only gives…

Can someone please tell me how to help a teenager in this day and age? I have 2 of them that I just don’t get most of the time. They don’t follow rules anymore & I don’t know what else do to?

Going nandos tonight and don’t fancy cooking a separate meal to take with us for baby? But also feeling guilty about the fried chips. I know there are other options but can’t see her eating it tbh, she loves potatoes lol

I swear I get so tired…. I was trying to wash all of the pump parts and baby bottles. I kept hearing my baby cry from the room. I was trying to wait it out to see if he’d get it under control, but my nerves couldn’t take it. I go in there and he’s just laying there on his phone while she’s crying. I asked him if he ...

My baby is 9 weeks old tomorrow, and during his wake windows I feel super guilty if I’m not entertaining him the whole time. I play and talk to him lots but sometimes I just let him chill and he ends up just falling asleep peacefully. I bought him a gym mat that he likes for these moments which has helped massively....

LO is 24 weeks today and we’d like to introduce Kendamil porridge this weekend. Which cutlery and bowls did everyone buy for baby? Is there particular solids or purées that worked well for your baby? Do I try to give food once a day to start with? Any advice and guidance is appreciated!

Has anyone tried it? Any good reviews or cautions?

I'm so thankful. It's the Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul fight night. My hubby makes nachos and eats all his nachos and looks over and sees i haven't touched mine. He says what do you need? I say "well I'm feeding baby so I can't eat yet" he waits until it's burp time then takes baby so I can eat ❤️💜 I'm in love with…

I’m almost 6 weeks postpartum from a C-section so still healing, me and my partner have had a up and down past few months (he moved out while I was pregnant it got that bad) while I was pregnant he didn’t help much around the house, wouldn’t do barley any house work, wouldn’t cook his kids tea etc, it was left up to...

My 18mo old has always been a great eater and drinker. This last week he has started spitting his food out and letting his drink run out of his mouth. Not every meal or every time he drinks but it's enough to be annoying. It's at the point of I don't know what to set in front of him because 50% of the time he pic...
