my 1 month old hasn’t pooped in 3 days, he seems a little unsettled, he’s farting loads but just not pooping. could he be constipated, hes combination feeding but mostly breastfed, the other night he did mostly formula and im thinking that might be why?

My little girl gets her first set of jags tomorrow. My HV told me to get calpol which I have got. do I give her the calpol before the injections or after? How often do I give it to her? Any advice welcome, I’m so nervous about it

It’s been 4 days now, Iv eaten more fruits and veg, drank more water, had porridge and fibre. Iv tried bicycle legs and massage but nothing is working. Advice please

Hi lovelies! I gave birth just over 3 weeks ago and had a 3rd degree tear. I was advised not to have a bath around 2 weeks ago, but surely I can have one now? All is healing well and I have no soreness or pain anymore! I just need a bath in my life🥺

One month old and he just won’t burp today 🙈 clearly getting quite uncomfortable with it and crying a lot more than usual. Has anyone got any great tips? Is infacol worth getting?

Has anyone else had trace protein in wee at 22 weeks midwife appointment?

My baby girl is 12 weeks old and since we've changed a formula from cow and gate comfort to aptamil, she's been throwing up a lot more (curled milk sometimes). She was constipated, so she was prescribed from gp and now dirty diapers every 2 to 3 days. Is this a sign of intolerance or allergy

Hi , how did everyone get their 12m old to take their jabs ? My 13m has his tomorrow, and he is very hyper aware of his surroundings and I’m dreading it .

My baby is 7 weeks old and is extremely gassy. Her diet is exclusively breastmilk and she breastfeeds most of the day. Her dad gives her a bottle of pumped breastmilk in the morning so I can sleep in a little. She hates bicycle kicks. She stiffens her legs so I cant do them She gets mylicon drops every 2-3 hours a...

Anyone else had this situation My boy has thrush they gave him nystan which hasn’t helped- then they gave him miconazol which is discontinued so they put him on nystan again which hasn’t cleared it again, so now they said there’s nothing else he can have and we just have to keep wiping his tongue?

My 5mo had her last visit when she was a newborn. When would be her next check up? How do I know she’s feeding and growing well?

My little one was discharged from hospital yesterday. He is likely on day 7/8 of the illness. If your little one has had it when would you say they seem 100% themselves again? I’d say he’s 75% there, but still doing a lot of sleeping to recover.

How often are you bathing your little one

my baby is weaning and has been for a month now. he was pooping once a day and it was soft and a big poo! but recently (past 10 days) he has only been going every 2.5-3 days and they are quite hard and thick. it seems to be uncomfortable to poo as well. is there anything i can give him whilst weaning to help this? ...

If I get in the shower is it ok to leave baby in Moses basket in the other room or would you move the Moses basket to the bathroom with you? Thanks

My LB has PV twice yesterday and once today. 😔 sooo much! I’m breastfeeding - is there anything I should be worried about or can this happen from time to time? No real change in diet

Hey guys! Does anyone have any experience in your breastmilk causing an intolerance in your baby? This weekend I ate way more dairy and gluten than I normally would - and my baby has had green poop with little bits of green in it, where normally it’s that mustard colour ( he’s one month ) Also he just seems extra ...

How did everyone’s babies do with their jabs? Mine has hers tomorrow 🥲 she was just a bit sleepy for her 8w and 12w but the 16w were awful. She needed to be held that night and wasn’t herself for two days so I’m nervous as I’m back to work 😞

My son is 1 years old and i think i want to get him circumcised but im scared his too big now has anyone done it this old?

Anyone else noticed their baby pooping less? My little boy is 6 weeks old today and breastfed. It used to be that every nappy change was poop and pee but slowly we are getting less poop. I’m not concerned as there’s still a healthy amount but just wondered if it’s normal they poop less as they get older. I’ve also...
