I’ve noticed race is classified very differently outside of America so I was curious. Do you understand race in the U.S.? For example. Terms like white passing, one drop rule, and brown paper bag test)

So my LO has been diagnosed with reflux and is on omeprazole and has been for some time however we are still having issues with feeding she’s very fussy like she wants it but it’s to uncomfortable for her to drink, I’ve changed her milk from cow and gate to cow and gate comfort colic and constipation as she suffers ...

Omg how horrific, I had to take my girl for her jabs today without my husband and it broke my heart hearing her scream! No one told me there was 4😭💔 Since being home (roughly 6 hours) she has been yelping in pain every now and again is this normal? I’m so worried, did anyone’s little one become ill after and how…

My lg has suffered with constipation on and off since December, she was prescribed laxatives but hasn’t been helping this current episode. We went to see the GP today and I am so upset with how she spoke to us. She was ‘nice’ but what she said and how she said it completely blindsided me and now I’m so angry and u...

So after being already fed etc , my baby was asleep then out of nowhere screamed like she was being eaten alive , so I tried seeing if she maybe wanted more milk even though I knew it was more than that as she litrealky screamed in pain and then I thought she gotta be constipated , checked and there was like yellow ...

My 3.5 week old baby is really struggling with trapped wind. He is actually pooping at least twice a day but it’s the inbetween that seems to be the problem. Every time he’s awake he’s grunting, straining and in clear discomfort. We do everything we can including massages, leg movements, general movements, keeping h...

My LO is usually irritable anyway, as I guess it's her temperament. But she's suddenly gotten a lot worse. She had her 3rd lot of jabs Friday after being postponed 4 weeks and she's just a nightmare to deal with right now. Non stop crying and whining and she's just never ever happy. It's making each and every day mi...

I’ve just realised I didn’t get my child benefit payment for this month (Jan). Did this happen to anyone else? Have had no issues previously.

How do I get my 2 month old to poop more, naturally?

I had one of those suction seats that my babe would sit in and now he locks his legs so I can’t slide him in. And he wants to be loose. Bath time with out the seat is so hard he’s all over the place and I have one hand in him the whole time. What is bath time like for you?

My little one eats approx every three hours however, the last two days she’s been spitting up which she doesn’t usually. Also, sounds like a bit of reflux… Thinking I should space out her feedings a bit more. Curious how often others after feeding their littles.

When I did my urine sample at my booking appointment (roughly 9 weeks) it came back I had Group B strep. She retested my urine (as she wasn’t sure I had an infection) at my 16 week appointment and it came back negative, so I don’t have it now. She said it’s still routine to have the antibiotics during labour but we ...

Anyone have a 13 month old with constipation and can give me tips on how to encourage her to drink juice and her miralax? She get breastmilk in a sippy cup 3 times a day. Always offered water but maybe drinks 4-5 ounces a day total. (I know it’s not enough, but can’t tube feed her) Dr gave the ok to give her 2 oun...

My baby will be 4 months on Friday. She has been the happiest baby since birth- except for the last few weeks. She’s suddenly not pooping, gassy and goes through bouts of screaming/arching her back like she’s in pain. Her farts smell horrible too. She just went 9 days without pooping and then had a normal size...

How often do you do a bath? Baby is 5 weeks old!

She has had diarrhoea though Saturday we had about 5 lots then only 2 Sunday and 1 yesterday and today. Been giving her an extra bottle of milk mid-...
