I’ve recently become a stay at home mum to my toddler and new baby and feel myself resorting to screen time a lot to get things done around the house.

But here we are three...

I wanted to reach out because I’m concerned about my 2-year-old’s eating habits. Lately, he refuses to eat almost anything and shows no interest in trying new foods.

My LO is 8 months next week and will happily eat purées but I’ve tried with finger food and he’s not interested in putting anything to his mouth! What could I do to help this?

My LO currently has an ear infection and teething like mad (currently has 12 teeth). He’s had a temp since Sunday (trip to A&E) and it’s been a nightmare trying to give him his meds let alone any Anbesol liquid. I have every teething aid at home but none seem to work, so I only carry the Anbesol liquid and we are cu...

My son is turning 4 in July. I feel like I’ve failed quite badly with discipline and tantrums. I’ve given in too easily and not held consistent boundaries. I’ve become frustrated and angry. As a result my child snaps at me often and has the most insane meltdowns if he doesn’t get his own way. I am trying to be firm ...

Is there any way to change the child benefit to be paid monthly instead of weekly? Just thinking it’d be easier to buy it all in bulk when I have all the money at once instead of going the shop every week to buy the things as we only have a co op near us and the pampers are £7 for 20🫣

Hi Ladies, I'm struggling so much with Tiredness. I'm somewhere between 7 and 9 weeks and genuinely am unable to do much at all.
