Has anyone else had their review over a teams call? I thought they would want to do it in person and I find it so strange that they want to do it via a teams call?! Or am I missing something here? How can they assess and review your babies development-take our word for it with the questionaire? I think because I w...

Google recommends no touch and sleeping in a dif...

Settle a debate - our 8 month old is bathed once a week unless she's had some blow outs/bad poops or is particularly dirty from weaning. How often do you bathe yours. Sure we were told more than that wasn't necessary

Me and my partner currently bathe our baby once a week, unless she is particularly dirty. A few friends have commented that this isn't enough, but I'm sure when we did our baby care class they said its not necessary to do more unless they're quite soiled. Interested to see what everyone else does! The bathe routine ...

I’m slightly confused - the flu vaccine is being offered to children who were 2 to 3 years old before 31st August 2024. But what about those who turned 2 after this date…are they not being offered the vaccine? I can’t find any info about it 🤔

I’ve assumed my baby has been suffering with colic due to the 2+ hours every night he cries for (starting around 8/9pm). However tonight he settled quite quickly once he started crying and I lay him down. He was calm, but was making spit bubbles. I waited 20-30 minutes before trying to feed and he latched, made a fe...

If your baby doesn’t have a particular medical issue (relfux, colic etc), how much do they cry? I just don’t know what ‘normal’ is! If there is a normal haha.

We had to have our 8 week vaccinations late. We had them today. My baby is 10 and a half weeks old. He is SO upset about it and will not stop crying. It's heart breaking. Did anyone else have this? Any tips on how to calm him down?
