I have returned to WFH and the nights with my little are getting to me. During the day he wants to be in someone’s arms or he gets fussy and at night he is waking up more frequently. I feel foggy in my head and emotional. He woke up 6 times last night crying and before my alarm went off to start the day and I lost i...

May sound like a stupid question but no one tells you about this weaning crack. What way would you work giving them dinner if their bedtime is 7.30? Would you do bottle, dinner, bed ? Or dinner earlier, bottle an hour later then bed? For example I gave my baby dinner then at 7.30 barely drank any of his bottl...

Hi what toys / activities do you have for outside now that the weather is getting nicer? We haven’t got anything yet so need to invest!

So we are just starting with potty training. My toddler had no interest until about 2 weeks ago. Things are going how you would expect. We do training underwear during the day and she’s going pretty good with pee but we are yet to get a poo in the potty. My question though is about night time and nap time. My girl i...

I'm just wondering if anyone else is in the same boat. I'm exclusively breastfeeding and I have no desire to do anything sexual. I'm exhausted and always busy with baby. And I honestly just don't want to. My partner has been very patient with me but now he's constantly asking me to do stuff. It's so frustrating and ...

Little one has his first dentist appointment on Monday. What do they do and any advice is welcome

My boyfriend and I own our house. I put the deposit in and he pays the mortgage as I'm a sahm to our 2 young children. We're probably about even now on our financial input to the property but what happens to the house if we break up? I feel forced to stay in this loveless relationship because of the house and the...

FTM here so I just need some guidance on how this is supposed to work. If anyone can direct me on where to read because there’s so much conflicting information on the internet. So to my understanding babies start solids in stage 1: 4-6 months. This includes cereal & fruit/veggies purées. I don’t want to start over f...

I’m getting tired of constantly telling my husband over and over again to not throw his clothes on the floors, THE BASKET IS LITERALLY RIGHT THERE.. I already deal with toddler and twins 🤦🏻‍♀️

What is everybody feeding their 7 month olds? Mine is mostly formula fed, little beast, rice cereal and some puree stuff.

What is the best way to get my baby to gain weight? She gets cereal in her bottles and eats cereal by itself. Her doctor said she’s on the smaller side and told me to just feed her cereal but she already eats cereal. Her twin brother is only 2 lbs more than her.

Is anyone else dealing with a super stubborn toddler? My little girl is flat out refusing to use her potty. We tried to go cold Turkey a couple of months ago, but she was just holding it and holding it and making herself ill. When we bring up the potty she just shouts ‘no’ or ‘I don’t want potty’. I don’t want to sc...

What time does your toddler have lunch?

I'm a FTM and my partner takes our one car to work Tuesday-Friday. I live in a small town and I am lucky enough to have a couple of nice walks nearby but there is only one baby group a week within walking distance, and not much to do in the town itself. Did anyone else experience this, and what did you do to relieve...

Just letting everyone know there's a new play area opened up in town that's ran by the council! There's an area they run actual groups, and then there's also a play area that's next to a load of tables that open monday-friday. You can take food and drink there too while the kids play. You access it upstairs in Middl...

My one year old and three year old are both very stubborn and independent. My three year old use to like to run away a lot while out at stores or the mall(thanks to dada for chasing her around whenever we were out). Shes calm down a lot but will still do it once in while. I feel guilty because she will ask me if I’m...

HELP!! My daughter turns 2 in May and is the most picky eater I’ve ever known. She’s been this way since a little before she was 1. I’ve tried sneaking foods into the foods she likes but she knows every time and spits it out. She uses to lick it, touch it, smell it, but won’t even do that anymore. I keep getting tol...
