Hi! I’m wondering if someone encountered similar symptoms with their babies. My 12 weeks old had 4 poos today all with a tiny bit of mucus in them. He’s also been vomiting quite a bit. He does have a cold for a few days, just a tiny bit congested at times, nothing major. He looks happy, doesn’t seem like something...

We started to give our baby girl colief yesterday and since her poos have turned watery. Just wondered if anyone else’s baby had the same and if it remained like that? Thanks!

My baby is SO good at independent play. I can plonk him on the floor and just let him play for ages. He likes crawling around, pulling himself up and playing with the little toys I have dotted around. I feel bad because I don’t actually play mic with him? I do the odd peek a boo etc here and there but I don’t real...

My lb is nearly 12 weeks old and has been diagnosed with CMPA and silent reflux. It’s been 10 weeks of watching him cry through and after feeds, constantly wake up uncomfortable kicking and screaming, some days it’s just sleep cry sleep cry.

My 10mo is currently cutting 4 teeth, & since monday he’s been pooping a good 5-6 times a day, & theyre a lot wetter and mucousy than usual.

My daughter seems to have developed colic at 10 months out of nowhere. High pitched crying suddenly, gas, hard to comfort, worse at night, squirming…seems sad/overall uncomfortable.

Hi So now the baby is 6mth - wriggles etc mean mobile (enough). What do you do with them when home alone and you want to shower ?? Thanks 🛁🚿

My 6 months old hasn't pooped for 2.5 days now. He started solids a month ago and he was pooping less and less frequently but never went more than a day without a poop and usually he had a massive one. But now it's been 2.5 days. He farts a lot and seems happy but it's freaking me out that he still hasn't pooped. ...

Maybe it’s his digestive system maturing or maybe cuz we started solids( though he barely eats 1-2 tbsp everyday). He has been passing a lot of gas all day and night and I’m wondering what I can do help? He gets up screaming probably due to the pain or need to pass gas. Any tips to help baby with reducing the gas? ...

Hello I've noticed poo in my 5 week old babies poo! Is this normal? He had it all day yesterday and again this morning. Should I be worried?

Our little boy only poops every 2 days! He is quite unsettled generally and doesn’t like being put on his back, although he does sleep ok in his next to me for a few hours each night. Poo’s are yellow and runny and he doesn’t really strain so we don’t think it’s constipation, but by the end of the 2 days he’s clearl...

My 8 month old daughter has started eating solids more meals throughout the day. It’s meant that her poop is fully solid now! She has only had 1/2 poos this week.. should I be concerned? I’ve tried weetabix and prunes, water throughout the day, broccoli. Any solid poo advice welcome 🤣🙈

My daughter is 3 months old and exclusively breastfed. Since she was a newborn she has pooed loads! This calmed down around 7 weeks and she started pooing every other day but we were recently ill with a cold a month ago and since then she’s been pooing around 5 times a day. Just wondering if anyone else’s breastfed...

I am 24 weeks today and really struggling with back and hip pain. I have been using my ball and exercising but nothing is really helping relieve the pain. I have heard pregnancy support belts are helpful. Does anyone have any recommendations on which or what to get?

Mums who have had kids before, when did your children start playing properly with a play kitchen? I just wondered what age they really started playing. I bought one in the sale recently & thought I’d hold on to it until next year for 2nd Birthday, but do you think my little girl would like it before then? Is 2 too l...
