Anyone related? Is it normal?

My 4-week-old baby feeds every 1-1.5 hours and burps after every feeding. I keep her upright for about 20 minutes after feeding before laying her down to sleep, but she still spit up a significant amount of milk, sometimes even 40 minutes later, and it comes out like a stream. Fed by goat formula exclusively.

Showers

Should I shower my baby everyday ? I shower mines every other day because I heard it can dry out their skin especially in the cold season. He is under one year.

1 year jabs nightmare!

My little boy had his 1 Year jabs today at 3. Had tea as usual and went to bed no problem. He woke up 2 hours ago and simply won’t stop screaming. He can’t move his legs, he won’t let me even pick him up without screaming in agony. I’m currently pushing him around the kitchen in his pram as that’s the only thing tha...

Baby bath

What are people bathing their babies in? My baby is 6 months and has out grown the snuggle bath but I feel like she is too small for the normal bath in our house and it’s so slippy too for her to try to sit up in. Please can I have some recommendations, thanks so much

Weaning poos

How’s your weaning journey going? How often do you give your LO’s solids? I’m currently giving my baby girl 3x solids a day. I’m not sure if this is too much but she has been pooing 4-7 times a day these past few days. Is this normal when you start weaning or shall I cut down? Prior to weaning she’d only poo once a ...
