My newborn is mega windy at night and I am struggling! In the day time she burps/farts just fine and is hardly windy. At night we get to about 1am and she starts grunting really loudly and rolling around because she’s uncomfortable! I then burp her for hours in all different positions and get no where until the tini...
My son is 4 months old he will be 5 months next week and for the past 2 days his diet hasn't changed he's strictly on formula but he's been very constipated he cries and he's pushing so hard that his little butt is so red and I feel so bad 😔😔 Picture of my boy for attention 💛
My baby is almost 10 months and was born with a lot of hair. I’ve trimmed it a few times since he has gotten older and it’s growing longer instead of fuller. But now I’m wondering if I need to start thinking of actual haircuts to get him used to it being cut? Does anyone have recommendations on when you started ac...
Baby will be 2 weeks old tomorrow and is becoming very unsettled due to colic like symptoms… she is breastfed (not sure if that’s relevant)- any suggestions that have worked are welcomed! 🥴😌
Is this okay?! Or should I be concerned? He’s only ever gone 1 day without pooping, on two occasions. But never 2 days…
Hi ladies, my three month old son has a tongue tie and as he’s bottle fed he isn’t being referred by our HV. However I’m still concerned it’s causing him problems feeding, gagging and choking almost on his bottle. Does anyone have experience in getting their little one’s tongue tie done privately? If so, where did y...
So my 18 month old daughter, has decided she no longer likes the bath, this has been going on for just over a month now, I’ve tried everything, toys, books, getting in with her, different things she just really doesn’t like it to the point, she’s shaking with fear, scratching me, pulling at my necklace and hair, gri...
My girl is 3 months EBF and we have confirmed CMPA through the yoghurt test. What are my steps now who/how do we get the referral? When I’ve been to GP with it they haven’t mentioned this and I didn’t ask as wasn’t confirmed. I know she’s still young but I know it can take a while! Do I need it in place before we we...
Hello! My 5 week old really struggles with gas. Now I know struggling is common for infants - but I mean like REALLY struggling. He farts like an adult male, I'm not kidding every 15 minutes or so whether he is awake or asleep. He squirms and struggle so. He is still pooping regularly and gaining weight etc. No exce...
I will be solo parenting soon as my partner works away from home and is going back to work next week. He will be away a few weeks at a time - I’ve been so lucky and have had him home for 6 weeks as I had an emergancy c-section. Maybe a silly question but how am I meant to shower whilst I’m the only one looking afte...
Please can you share your bath time routines? I really struggle with ours... we have a shnuggle bath seat which is good because my baby can't tip forward or escape but it also makes it hard to wash her with a cloth, as I can't get to her bum. I also don't know what to do with her to entertain her, I find it stressfu...
My baby has had greenish poo today and one nappy change there was a small streak of red. She's absolutely fine and happy in herself. Recently got over a cold and had her last set of jabs 1 week ago. Has anyone had similar and what was the outcome? Obviously will get medical advice too. Thanks.
It’s finally got my son.. he’s never been this poorly 😩 can anybody recommend anything to help with his mouth? Seems to be the worse affected and as he has a dummy to sleep, he’s really struggling to keep it in 😭 my hearts breaking for him!
What were peoples baby's signs of reflux? My baby is almost 4wks old and has been showing signs of reflux for a while probably from a week old but people have been making me think these signs are 'normal' for every baby. But my baby is sick after each feed during, after and upto a couple hours after. Also hiccups a...
I’m trying to breastfeed but I don’t think I have enough to properly nourish my newborn. So midwife advised to top up 45ml of formula. 2 weeks into it, we noticed bubba seems to still be hungry. So we increased his formula to 90ml and he can finish it all most of the time. He poops like explosion — yellow and wet al...
What’s your little one’s favourite thing to play with at the moment?
Has any one had experience of having a later diagnosis of cmpa? My little boy is 6 1/2 months old and we ebf. I've had a feeling that something has been off since he was around 5 months. His poos were often green and muccousy, sometimes pooing 5 times a day, he has had blood in his poo twice, he goes through periods...
Any tips on making bub comfortable? He doesn’t breast feed and I don’t have anymore milk in the freezer to use in the bath 🥲 My little one has only just got over tonsillitis and has now been hit with chicken pox 😭😭 I feel so bad for him bless him.
My 14 week old had posterior tongue tie that was released yesterday, it was discovered as part of oral assessment due to being very fussy on bottle. She has been understandably very unhappy since the release and her feeds has reduced as pre warned, but when do they start feeling better? I know usually younger babi...
How often are your newborns pooing?? I know they’re meant to have a dirty nappy once every 24 hrs but my 3 week old is going 4-5 days without pooing & then it’s just one massive poonami. Wondering how common this is. She’s on cow & gate formula but thinking of switching to Hipp organic to see if this makes any diffe...
