Just looking for some advice. My little one had his 12 week jabs today and has been very sleepy/unsettled. He was sleepy with his 8 week jabs but wasn't particularly fussy or upset. The nurse said he wouldn't need Calpol this time around but I feel as though he has been alot worse with this set of jabs. Has anybod...

This is concerning. Why can’t we see vaccination posts from before as if they are just trying to withhold any information against it as they can.

Hello mommas, I have a almost 4 month old, we live in a cold climate so what do you recommend for her bath routine with this climate, I used to bath her every night between 7:30-8:00, but now that the summer is over I don’t know what I can do. Any Tips?

How sticky was your babies first poop? My son is having GI issues and one of the questions the doctor asked was if he passed his meconium and I said yes. He pooped same day of birth but I've always heard meconium is extremely sticky and this poop just wiped right off my son's skin like any other poop so I'm wonderin...

My baby passed away very soon after premature labour. I texted the godmother (Gm) about the date of the funeral and the exchange went like this: Me: The funeral is on 5th. Can you come? Gm: I can come and visit you on 6th or 7th. Me: Do you mean you can come to the funeral on the 5th and see me on 6th or 7th OR ...

I tried looking for this in searches and can’t done any searches related to vaccines, or vaccination. Weird much? But yeah should they?

Anyone had a bad experience with the one year jags? And what are they exactly for?

FTM and please don’t judge me 🤣 so when give baby a bath I use a body wash for her hair and body (Only coin size) . We use a nuby baby bath tub for her. So after rinse the foams off her hair and body I still feel there are small amount of soap left on her skin. Do I need to rinse her again? But then I will have to…

My daughter has 3b/3c hair so I’m specifically looking to hear from POC on when you taught your kids to shower and start caring for their own hair. Right now I wash it in the sink once a week because it’s easy for me to use the hose and ensure all products are washed out and it really hurts my back leaning over a ba...

My baby is 6 weeks old now and found out she has thrush. We were prescribed nystatin and I gave it to her as prescribed but here’s the issue.. ever since we started the medicine she’s been screaming like she’s in pain. Refusing the bottles and hardly sleeping. I’m thinking it’s making her tummy hurt really bad. I ca...

I heard of the kids specific hairdressers based in Newcastle, but I can’t remember the name. I think it was maybe round in Whitley Bay??

If you haven’t been you should definitely go! It’s not the cheapest but for £11.50 the kids get to play on the trampolines and soft play, plus get food. Much easier to let them be more free and wild. Exploria isn’t set out great in my eyes. Canni just let them go, as much.

How often is everyone bathing their newborn and how do you do it - in a normal bath, with you or in a baby bath? With soap, just water? How long? Do you use a thermometer to check temperature? I feel like he doesn't get dirty really apart from his nappy area which obviously is cleaned thoroughly multiple times per day.

Hi, just wondering how often people’s breastfed babies are pooing-mine normally goes every week to 9 days! Hes otherwise well, gaining weight well and plenty of wet nappies but just wondering if this is normal! Thanks!

I gave my 6 month old some food a day and a half ago, and she hasn't pooped since then. Any advice? I think the food was too complex digest. But I'm not sure what to do.

Has anyone had issues with their babies in the car who have reflux? Ours absolutely hates it and screams when she’s in there.

My 8mo daughter is so badly constipated. She’s opening her bowels everyday but they are pebble to long hard stools. I’m trying everything giving pears, prunes etc… she did do a soft poo a few days ago but now it’s gone hard again. She has gone on a food and water strike and doesn’t want to eat/drink as she usually d...

How much play time do you have with your baby each day, when you are at home with no plans?
