I had a bad experience at a chiropractor about three years ago, where I actually left the office with herniated discs that I didn’t have before. I’ve been hesitant to go back, but I started up treatment at a new doctor in a new state last week in hopes to alleviate some sciatic pain that I’ve been having. Has anybod...

I’ve seen so many post and articles that an ebf baby should poop daily, if not multiple times daily. My 4mo boy originally went every 5 days until about 2mo when he started going every 3-4 days. It was always a bright orange and larger amount. We had to start him on Famotidine for reflux and he is now has been going...

Does anyone else have issues with spit up after feeding? Baby is 10 days old and is exclusively BF. Midwife and Health Visitor has said it’s normal (unless it turns into projectile vomit) but it’s still causing quite a bit of anxiety…

Hi So nervous about my little ones 1st year jabs.. Is it really painful? And how did your little ones handle it after?

Hey everyone! I'm in Quebec, Canada and preparing for my hospital birth this July.

However, I recently learned they also ...

Now I know the domestic…
