How's the best to catch a toddlers vomit, I've tried a bowl and she just turns away from it, I've already changed beddings 3 times🙈

Who leave their babies in daycare??! I’ve been trying to work for the past couple of months but I feel stuck because I don’t really have trustworthy family that live near me so my only option is daycare but I’m soo scared of something happening to her or some treating her bad, how do you guys do this ?!!!

My 18 months old daughter wants to step out every evening to play and I can’t take her to the park as it gets dark quickly these days. Any suggestions for some indoor play options where i can take her every evening?

I’ve been depressed for years and it’s been more intense since having baby. Last night I had a horrible rage episode after and exchange of not so kind words with my bf. He’s about twice my size and I said something unkind about it. But in return he said he wanted to smother me and that I was replaceable. I was upset...

How can I teach my baby to chew and put small amounts of food in the mouth? He vomited while eating puffs, and I saw big pieces of food like he was not chewing enough. I never leave him alone but I look and thought he was chewing well.

My baby will be 3 weeks on Saturday. I feel like a horrible mom when I put my little one down, especially if he’s awake. I know he needs his space and I need mine, but for some reason it feels wrong to put him down and not be interacting with him and/or snuggling him all the time. There are times when I have to set...

my partner and me and have a son together.. We’ve been together for 5 years and I’m very unhappy, I love him but I don’t know if I want to be with him anymore. He can’t hold a job, he’s wrecked 2 cars, he won’t be able to afford insurance, we don’t cuddle anymore. Everything between us just sucks. And I don’t know...

My son’s daycare teacher has concerns that he could be showing early signs of autism and the reason she thinks that is because he is refusing to touch/finish his lunch box. Basically she doesn’t want to feed him and wants him to finish his lunch box independently. Last Monday, she took a video of him showing how dis...

My partner and his mum used to always make jokes at my expense and it would embarrass me infront of others. I could say something and they would both be looking at eachother laughing and deny it when I ask. Anyway, she came over today. My partner came home from work and said there was a horrible smell and was walk...

I think baby is teething - drooling a lot, red cheeks, eating hand constantly & gums look sore at the top - I am a FTM so have no idea what I’m doing! I have teething gel, didn’t seem to help but really clueless otherwise!! Does anyone have any tips or tricks?

Stay at home parent & working parent.. Working parent has ONE day off a week. Who should sleep in???

Baby girl is quite good with veges and carbs but we're struggling with protein! Egg has been my go to but she seems to have gone off it a bit now. I've tried different meats and fish but she struggles and doesn't tend to eat anything. What protein sources are you giving baby and how are you serving it?

Just a rant really. I put in a flexi working request which I was told should be ok and to request in writing. It’s been 3 months since the verbal request and almost 2 months since the written request. I was told it would be sorted in October but I’ve had nothing yet! Today my work laptop no longer connects to the ne...

I’ve mentioned all the way through my pregnancy to mine and my partner’s family about what rules and boundaries we are going to have for our little boy. I’m being induced next so we’ve been mentioning these more. They’re pretty basic rules: - No kissing the baby - No visiting/holding the baby if your ill - No pos...

gals i’m weaning my baby at 3.5 months… just pureed fruit and baby porridge- thoughts?

Random question, but how is everyone eating? Like, eating breakfast/lunch/dinner? I have a baby who won’t be put down and hates a carrier, so have been skipping breakfast and lunch now for a couple months (I know I can eat whilst holding him, but making food is another story!) But recently, I’ve been really struggli...

What are some activities you do with your babies during the day?

So my ex came to visit our son today. He has a mini climbing frame that I got him a few months ago and he has been playing with it ever since I put it up! I have noticed I can leave my son unattended for short periods while I do small errands and nothing major has happened. I go to start dinner and in no time he fa...
