My LO is 3 months and 2 weeks and is EBF. He follows a routine during the day where he naps at least three times and is fed very well throughout the day*. Once given a bath and breast fed, he will sleep from 8:30pm to 10:30pm once fed again he will sleep for 4 hours (that’s the longest he’s ever done and not often) ...

Question for all the mommas who formula feed! Have you guys had to replace your bottles? I scrub them and sterilize them but the bottles just don’t seem to be super clean? Almost foggy looking.

What lotion ,soap and oil do you recommend for newborns? I’m confused on which to get.

So my best friend since kindergarten has been upset with me and I have no idea why, and she won’t give me a straight answer. We hung out a few weeks ago and everything seemed normal and fine but a week or so after I noticed she wasn’t really talking to me and was taking long to reply when I tried. I gave her space f...

Hi. My LG has become such hard work, she won’t get dressed, it literally takes hours. She’s pushing boundary’s all the time and seems to think it’s funny. I think I’m peri menopausal and exhausted as she’s up half the night n bed swapping and I’m finding it really hard to manage, keep wondering if I am doing things ...

I’ve mentioned a few times that I want to go to therapy for my mental health. My partner is totally against it saying that if I were to do that it would end our marriage. I get that he is scared that I would be confiding in someone else when he want me to come to him, but I don’t feel like I fully know how to commun...

Hey, mummas, my baby goes to bed at 7.30-8pm but gets up at least twice if i do not dreamfeed in between. Is this normal? I'm getting comments from my parents and in laws that I shouldn't be waking up to feed, but it's easier to settle her if I get up when her feed is due, rather than letting her guide me.. I dunno...

I need comforting words 😔😔 My daughter is getting some general bloodwork done tomorrow and I am feeling so much anxiety over it. I know how much she’s gonna cry and how hard she’s gonna make it moving her arm or something. But the test is necessary and i’m just trying to tell myself that it’s gonna only last for a…

Anyone's baby still waking up multiple times a night? He gets fed all times and we don't use dummies

I’m 6 months PP. I produce approx 33oz/day and pump 5x per day roughly 4-5 hours apart except overnight I stretch it to 6 hours apart while still doing one pump in the middle of the night at 2:45AM. I really want to eliminate my 2:45AM pump but then I’d be going 9 hours without pumping. Would this throw my body off ...

Moms ! what high chairs do you have and why do you like it or what made you buy it? I’m looking into buying a high chair but there is so many options and I just want any recommendations for chunky baby as my LO has thunder thigh’s so I don’t want to pinch or hurt and that can grow with baby and foldable as well. ...

I’m trying to figure out how to plan a schedule for my 3 month old. We both go to bed around midnight and wake up at 8am. Any ideas when good nap times will be? This is the best I got so far but I can’t seem to fit naps in where I need to and based off how she settles down and sleeps

I know the guidelines say no cuddly toys etc in bed until 12m but baby is 11m and nursery advised to see if she can form an attachment to something to bring to nursery with her. Are any other babies out there taking a favourable soft toy to bed overnight?

My son will be a year on Saturday! He still wakes up at the exact same times at night. I'm not sure if it's habitual at this point or if he really needs to eat? He's definitely slept through the night multiple times...in a row, so I know it's a possibility! 7pm asleep-10 or 11pm wake feeds formula bottle, diaper ...

Is very liquidy soft, diarrhea like stool fairly normal for newborns? Baby boy is a week old today. I breastfeed and started supplementing an ounce of formula as well after feeding sessions two days ago now based on pediatrician recommendations Im worried it could be from using lanolin on my nips but they are so cra...

When are you starting to buy things for the baby and like the pram as well? X

Anyone else’s baby wake at 4:30 most days?

How are you or did you ladies navigate being out with both babies? So I have a 5 week on and a 19month old. I've booked for us all to go to a play centre tomorrow (my 19month old is not yet walking) how did you navigate say your newborn needing a feed whilst out (breastfed). With me being on my own I want to interac...

How many wet nappy’s do your 14 months old get in a day ? I noticed couple of days ago that even if baby gets loads of fluids his wet nappy’s are dropping. Tried to find some information about it but can’t find any. Xx

I’m wondering if anyone has put their baby in their own room yet? If so, at how many weeks? I’m wondering if I can start putting my son in his own room with a monitor so that I can hear/see him. Midwife suggested he stays in the next to me till 6 months so not sure what to think!
