Hello, this is so embarrassing and disgusting but my son has started eating his poop, he was diagnosed with moderate autism, so no way of making him understand that what he is doing isn’t right since he does not understand us. Anyone else go through this struggle or just me ?

I am extrovert and my spouse is complete introvert. He wouldn’t make any effort to have social circle, even if I bring my friends he will find an excuse and will not stay there. I am finding it too hard without people, and people of my age are all married and have kids. I feel terrible to go just with kids, and in ...

How do you start? Do you just remove the nappy one day and that’s it or ask them to go on a potty a few times a day?

I have to return to work so I’ll need to find a daycare for my son who is almost 18m. I have 2 recommended to me by my sons fathers friends, since I’m new to this I wanted to ask about any things you guys wish you inquired about before making your final decision!

Help, how do I apply for the 85% of childcare costs to get paid back to me?

How can I let go? My husband says I want to be in control 24/7 with everything but I think its from the trauma he caused in our relationship and the lack of rebuilding I needed to see.

Does anyone know why or has their little one done the same thing as mine in this video? We did painting hands when she was about 8 months and she did the retching and we didn’t think anything of it but we did it again the other day and it was a strong reaction 🤔 We baked some bread today and when she came to help…

Okay so I’m afraid to say this a little as feel I’ll get hate but I haven’t found having a baby hard 🤷🏻‍♀️ I get I am probably very lucky to feel this, but generally it’s been best time of my life, I enjoy all of it, yes I had nights when I was exhausted but a friend said to me, have you got angry at baby yet and I…

My little one hasn’t started potty training yet but was wondering if I should change her to pull ups. She’s 17 months old and is in size 5/6 nappies. Are your little ones in pull ups or still nappies?

I've been giving my baby boy solids (puree and tastes of the foods I eat) for a while now, for a few months. We started off with cereals and his stomach didn't love it so we stopped it and I just give him fruit/veggie purées. Problem is he only will eat it once a day and now he is not very interested as he'd rathe...

Well not quite free time ....once my LO is off to bed at 7pm, I think phewww I have some free time to myself and sort out the dishes and clothes, watch netflix, check my socials etc as I spend the whole day glued to the baby he doesn't even like it when I'm on the phone or open up the laptop as he thinks its fun to ...

Lucky's dads rules vs the 80s 😂

How much, if anything, would you pay? So, I have a 7mo and I work nights 2-3 nights per week. I've had someone living here since end of May. They paid a little the 1st few months but they got close with my son and I trusted them enough to babysit while I work. They haven't paid anything to live here the last couple...

Probably our babies still young for this but any thoughts on the tonie story box? Is it worth it?

This is our second child. He was pretty much the same with our first but i thought that was partially due to the fact that it was all new and unexpected. However, now even with our second newborn, my husband just gets so stressed when the baby cries. I just left the baby with him while I took a shower, I came out...

When should we start introducing/teaching utensils? My 14 month old seems to want to try and use them on his own but is entirely unsuccessful. He obviously eats some things off a spoon or fork but fed by me. Every now and then I can hand him a spoon and he’ll feed himself. He started recently taking an empty spoon, ...

Every time I turn around someone just got a new car, bought a new house, having babies left and right and I’m scratching my head bc are we living in this same economy?? I work a decent job and we have a decent income between my husband and I but I must not be doing something right. Don’t get me wrong, we’re comforta...

What are you doing for snacks now littles have turned 1?

It's relentless, every interaction my husband has with our daughter lately ends in a power battle where he's decided exactly how things are going to go, she disagrees/wants to do things differently, he digs his heels in and is really strict and stern with his words, she's not being listened to in the slightest and f...

How on EARTH are we teaching our babies to spoon feed themselves?! My LO will put an already loaded spoon in his mouth himself maybe once and will kind of dip the spoon into a bowl occasionally if I show him, but honestly he just launches the spoon every time 🙄😩 Between that and constantly chucking his food on…
