Hi everyone. I have a care review meeting on Friday regarding the loss of my baby boy and I really don’t know what to expect. Has anyone gone through this? What should I expect to hear/find out? The thought of it is making me quite anxious. Any help would be appreciated 💕

I have my LOs 12 week vaccinations this week, albeit it a week late, and I am dreading it. I know they have to be done but my heart can’t take putting my LO through that pain and seeing them cry. Did anyone else feel like this? Does anyone have any tried and tested methods for easing the pain / stress for my LO?

Hey. What were peoples first signs and symptoms of their little one having colic or formula intolerance? I’m not sure if my little one is struggling with either one. I am going to phone the gp tomorrow to make an appointment to check.. I just feel guilty that I’m possibly causing him to suffer without realising

So my lo is constipated and has been for quite some time, we’ve tried laxido (too painful for her), lactulose - didn’t seem to do anything, all the p’s (pear,prune,plum etc), cut out dairy and gluten (in case of allergy) She doesn’t eat overly well at home - eats everything at nursery - will only eat vegetables if...

My 9 week old normally drink about 21oz but lately has been drinking less. Today she has only drank 10.5oz, she hasn’t pooped in 2 days (normally one day poop the next not). Have tried everything but unsure what to do. Any tips/ advice? Thank you!

Hey! I’m thinking about getting my daughter a play kitchen for Christmas and was wondering if anybody has any recommendations. There’s so many options! Do I just get a plastic one or go all out with the wood ones I’m seeing?!

My 16 month old has a thing of making himself gag? We was just having dinner and with his yogurt spoon he was shoving it down his throat making himself gag? Is this normal? Or should I be concerned 🙄🤔

I layed her down for a nap and when I walked in to get her up she was naked, she had taken her diaper off and was covered in poop. Her hands were dirty as well as her mouth. I read on Google it happens and it is harmless. Today she has diarrhea and it’s stinky. Otherwise she’s eating well, playing and seems fine. Sh...

Any soft play recommendations for a crawler (8 months) in Bedford or nearby?

My 8mo girl hasn’t pooped in like 4 days. She just started really liking solids but we are still breastfeeding majority of the time. Yesterday I have her green beans, brussel sprouts and two prunes along with a bit of water. Still no poop! She doesn’t seem uncomfortable but I’m wondering when I should worry.

has anyone been to a messy play pros cons my little boy is going to his first one on Thursday wondered if you think they was worth it x

Any positive stories from the 1 year jabs I’m worried and stressed by them x

I had a traumatic birth which resulted in an emergency c section, I have my 6 week GP check up soon, do they do a vagina exam or blood test? I don't think I'm ready for either atm due to stress of birth 😅 thanks!

My LB is over 11 months old now and I have experienced extreme pain passing stools ever since he was born. I’ve spent 11 months dreading needing the bathroom because of the pain and I can’t deal with it anymore. I saw my gp about it and they said I have tears around my anus and gave me a cream to heal them but it ...

My baby has had very loose nappies for about a week, doing 7-10 poos a day / night. I’ve put it down to teething as there have been teeth coming through. However this morning his poo smelt strongly of vinegar and he has a temperature as well. Just wondered if anyone else has experienced this?

Hi! I’m starting to panic a bit here so I’m hoping someone can share their experience with me. My son was allergic to milk and we had a terrible journey with him when he was little. I’m very concerned that the same thing will happen with my three week old baby girl. I don’t know if I’m over thinking it but these ar...

Hi ladies my son has woken up for a bottle and I’ve noticed these.. are they chicken pox?

Is anyone else’s LO trialing nutramigen? Ive suspected an allergy due to a few things, so we are trialing this milk. Ever since starting it, he’s been having runny VERY stinky poops that smell like sick.. he’s had 4 in the last 24 hours. The smell is insane. It just smells like an adult has vomited in his nappy 🤢…

10 day old EBF baby not pooed today, is this normal?

My son still absolutely hates having his hair rinsed 😭 any tips or recommendations?
