It came with tommee tippee bottles. It says on the package it gets rid of bubbles but where does it go? It can't fit on or in the bottle?

How many oz per bottle is your little one currently drinking? My little girl is in between 6-7oz currently

According to wonder weeks my little girl is now in leap 5 and apparently can “clap her hands together” “pass a toy from one hand to another” “take toys in and out of boxes” and “understand that a toy can be above, below, inside outside” - now either my little girl is severely behind in her development or this app is...

Hi ladies, I don’t know what to do, my son is 4 and he calls me fat, ugly, stupid and says he hates me and it will be out of the blue. I don’t know what to do about it. I’ve already taken technology away as punishment and time outs but how do you go about it? I tried to talk to him and say that he shouldn’t say thin...

Help! My baby girl is currently in size 3 nappies, as the size 2’s were too tight around her waist, however every time she is sat in her car seat on a journey longer than half an hour, or in her bouncer for a short while, if she poo’s it leaks out of the legs. It’s driving me crazy because we are going through so ma...

When did people lower their babies cot to the lowest setting? My little boy can now sit up independently from laying down and I’m concerned that he may pull himself up and over the side. I just don’t think I’m going to be able to reach to pick him up/lay him down once it’s been lowered as I’m not very tall 😓 He’s…

My 10 month old normally does a poo a day (sometimes 2) he hasn’t done a poo for 4 days now and I’m getting really worried. I’m not sure what to do, he’s having the same food, same water, same milk intake but nothing. Is there anything I can do to help him?

Hello, how are you guys splitting night feeds with your partner if they are back at work, are you exclusively doing all the night feeds or are you both sharing the night feeds? I’m currently exclusively doing the night feeds and struggling with the sleep deprivation! Baby doesn’t sleep during the day unless on me so...

Anyone just start getting very bad postpartum hair loss . When I brush my hair a bunch of hair just falls out 😭😭

Anyone have any advice? My 2 week old seems to be getting too much milk when feeding, he often coughs or splutters after, and brings some of it back up. It’s not sick like, it’s still very much just milk that he hasn’t swallowed yet. He’s putting weight on perfectly and a very happy and content baby, I’m just worrie...

Are you doing gradual approach now or just hitting it in one go? How are you managing sleep, naps and feeds? We’ve started the gradual approach but it feels weird to also be shifting her feeds because by Saturday night she’ll be almost a whole hour later than normal and I don’t think she’s going to take that well!

LG still doesn’t crawl or walk. I feel it’s holding her back in so many ways. I see other toys her age getting to explore their environments, open cupboard doors, chase things of interest. All she does is sit. She’s not shown any signs of moving soon and I’ve tried everything.

I feel awful - have had so much going on personally with family and completely forgot that it was my son’s 8 week jab appointment this morning. I’ve rebooked but the next one available is in 5 weeks time, he’ll be 13 weeks then. The GP has reassured me that it’s fine for him to have them done then but I feel so guil...

I had a physiotherapy appointment for my 9.5 month old today and I’ve left it feeling like a failure as a parent. He can’t crawl, won’t even go onto his knees and isn’t getting into a sitting position from lying by himself. I can’t help but feel it’s because I had to return to work when he was 6 months old when I ...

We moved into a new house 6 months ago, about 2 months ago my 3 year old keeps saying there’s a ghost in the hallway upstairs and refuses to have the door open to our playroom! If it’s open he slams it shut and says there’s a ghost! This morning he was hiding behind his door saying the ghost is crying and pointing d...

My LO has reflux and struggles to sleep solidly as her poor little body wakes her up to be sick. I have tried so many things to help her, including feeding upright, then keeping her upright for 30 mins. She is EBF. We tried infacol with no effect. We are on gripe water and I have cut out dairy, but it’s still happen...

Hey ladies, my boobs have grown and my old bras are now uncomfortable. Where’s the best place for a bra fitting or to buy bras? Thank you xxx

Hey mums - my little one sometimes moves quite a lot in his sleep and just wanted to check if the way he moves is normal? Sometimes he suddenly wakes up from his sleep, especially when we try to put him at bed at night and does the same type of movements. I’m a first time mum and I seem to be panicking at every litt...

Has anyone else’s baby suffered with constipation while being exclusively breastfed? I’ve spoken to the health carer and they said it’s fine for them to not go regularly (up to one week) but she’s uncomfortable in between and wakes up in pain at night 😔

Hiya I have a one month old and during the day he cannot be put down for his naps. Everytime I put him down he wakes up minutes after or instantly and I have to start all over again. I also have a 16 month old so not being able to get up for hours at a time when he is napping on me is getting almost impossible. Plea...
