Hi, this weekend she’s had a tummy bug and viral cold infection. She was sick a few times but we think mainly due to her cough as she was being sick when coughing hard. 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-...

Does anyone else’s babies hand smell like smelly feet? We wash them daily and leave them out of the baby grows but it keeps recurring. Is this normal?!

My 1 month old got a semi diagnosis of reflux and got told to change formula back to sma pro from the sma comfort milk but had three days of green poo now and it’s starting to worry me I see the gp in two weeks as that’s the only appointment I could get 😨😨

How were your babies after their 16 week injections? I’m unsure what to do as my LB is just screaming and crying every time he’s awake. He had the vaccines last night at 5pm and we were at out of hours GP last night as he wouldn’t stop crying and screaming. All obs were normal but this morning he’s the same, doing m...

My newborn is 4 weeks old and over the past couple of days she seems to be straining every time she poops and becomes really agitated, but she’s not constipated.

Your kiddo ever pee clear few times within the hour? That just freaked me out. Never seen him pee clear! He did chug half a cup of apple juice a little while ago. Should I worry?

How did you know your little one had reflux? What did you do and did it help? I think mine is suffering with reflux. He just vomited multiple times after feed and has been vomiting after most feeds for the past week or so.

My 6 month old baby started on solids yesterday. We gave him around a spoon of rice porridge on both days. He seems very uncomfortable the whole day, and didn’t nap well. He keeps giving noises as if he’s straining to poop constipated, but his poop seems watery as usual. Worried if he is having gas issues or stomach...

My son is 15 months old and has been pooping in the bath tub since he was 8 months old. We wait 1 hour after eats before putting him in the tub which he poops within the that time. Any tips or tricks to get him to stop.

My little boy is 10 weeks this week and has been on Aptamil since birth. We did combi feeding briefly, which has recently stopped. He is struggling at the moment with reflux and has been prescribed omeprazole - it's not working and seems to be getting worse (I'm going to request he tries gaviscon). I'm now wondering...

Anyone dealing with their baby being colicky and very hard to pass gas? Also if you are breastfeeding have you gotten any drs advice on what to eat or not to eat in order to ease baby’s symptoms through breastmilk? Did you try formula instead?

Can teething cause an increase in poop diapers?

My 3 week old sometimes throws up when I burp him. So far he has done this twice today, it seems to be when I’ve been trying to burp him for a while. I don’t move him around too much when trying to burp so really don’t know why he does this :( he’s been gaining weight the midwife and health visitor are both happy wi...

My baby was born with a tongue tie, and I presumed this was why he took so long feeding - up to 1hour 30mins on breast & up to 1 hour on a bottle, often back to back. Cluster feeds are horrendous - 4 to 6 hours non-stop feeding, burping, nappy changing. His tongue tie was cut last Thurs 16th, things haven’t really...

Just looking for other mothers concerns or reasonings . I have had my 10m up to date but soon he…

Anyone else’s baby cry like hell when he’s hungry? I’m starting to worry about if it’s something more than hunger. He calms down after he eats but Jesus you would think he was in the worst pain ever the way he cries.

I’m 28 weeks plus 3 days and for the past few weeks, I’ve been really constipated. Anyone else been struggling with this too? If so, any tips would be appreciated 🙏🙏

My lo keeps having reflux even when it’s been quite a while since he had a feed. It just looks like water should I be concerned?

Do you let your little one play in the bath before you wash them or do you just wash them and take them out?

Currently my son is 9 months so this isn’t something I’m stressing about, but at what age do you start worrying about modesty around your child? I still bring him into the bathroom when I go in there, bring breasts out to pump, change in front of him. Not worried about it or anything but I was talking to my husband ...
