Anyone else struggling to find out if there baby has a milk intolerance? I've changed milks and had baby gaviscon for 3 weeks but baby is still very sicky, and agitated and upset after every feed 😣 not sure what is is! My first born had colic but that was just evenings. This seems to be all the time.

So, this evening I was emptying my baby’s bath water and I spotted a small worm 😱 Now, it could have been in the tub already somehow, but my baby (8 mo)has been really unsettled at night recently and does have a ferocious appetite so now I’m really worried he has worms!? He’s otherwise okay in himself, no fevers,…

I’m in absolute agony and can barely move. Any advice?

My GP surgery is holding a flu jab walk in on Saturday. I never received a text about it but my mom did, so I called the GP to check if I can attend. They told me that Pregnant women are not allowed the flu vaccine before 28 weeks. I was told otherwise by the pharmacy, who said I'm in the priority category. Are ...

My LO is 6m and has been doing this pretty much since birth, but it’s getting far worse. She looks so uncomfortable/in pain scrunching up her body, and she nuzzles her head into our shoulders and grunts/holds her breath. It happens multiple times a day, at any point (not necessarily around feeding), and can last fro...

3.5 month old, it's currently 2pm and babe hasn't taken a single bottle today. the one bottle she did take, she only drank 3 out of 6oz and immediately threw it all up. her temp is fine and overall seems herself, maybe a tad fussy. she just had a crying spurt before falling asleep which is not like her. the only thi...

So I had a chat with one of the doctors today as my chronic pain has flared quite bad the last few weeks. She has advised that I can have my co-codamol (it's low dose) but that it will mean baby will need to stay in to be monitored. She is also contacting neonatal unit to ask if the monitoring will need to happen ...

The past 2 days my little boy has been tensing/straining his whole body and going red for like 3 seconds at a time, almost like he's trying to poo but he isn't. He's also arching his back and straining a lot when on his back. He's 7 months so don't think it's colic which is all Google seems to say. Anyone had anythi...

My baby is 6 weeks and did not have a bowel movement yesterday, last night, or today. Should I be concerned and what should I do?

Hi moms, I’m a bit worried and looking for advice. My 8-week-old baby has had very loose, watery poop for the past few days, usually once a day in the evening. This started after the first round of vaccinations, though I’m not sure if it’s related. I’m also struggling with feeding and my baby isn’t sleeping for long...

So I’m a ftm of a 2 month old girl and she has recently developed thrush. And since she has had it I have found little orange/red spots in her diaper about 2-3 times in the front and I’m mortified that it’s blood. I wipe her very well so I don’t think it’s poop and I checked her bits and I don’t see any nicks or scr...

Just wondering if this is a lip tie or if it's normal and will stretch as baby teeth come through? 🤔 thanks 🙈

I started weaning my LO a few days ago and I’ve noticed her urine smells really strong all of a sudden. I’m still feeding your normal supply of milk. Anyone else experiencing this?

Hey ladies. I was just wondering if it’s normal for your little one to have loose stools for over three weeks?! My son has had them since his one year jabs!

How often do you give ur baby a bath during the week? I try to do one day yes and one day no but is this okay should I start baths everyday? Just curious

Am I missing something? I’ve bought two pairs of wellies for my daughter that are bigger than her usual size, cannot get either pair on her feet

My baby is fussy after every feeding. When trying to fart, he gets so red and you can tell he’s uncomfortable. We’ve used Gripe water as well but what else could we try? Could it be the formula? Milk allergy? 🥺

My baby girl is 8 weeks old & she gets really bad colics. Any advice on how I can help her?

Hello I want to start incorporating a loose bedtime routine for my 1 month old which includes and bath, coconut oil massage , cuddles with a story and then breast fed. Is a bath every day too much for a 5 week old? I’ll only use soap once a week and the rest just warm water. I will only leave her in there for short ...

How often a day do you give your newborn mylicon. My baby just hit a month and it seems he constantly needs help passing gas and burping.
