After a good foam playmat, ideally not too expensive My little one is tearing up her foam square ones and it never stays together anymore so need a new one🤦‍♀️

Why does noone warn you about the smell! 🤣 Gave our little boy his first taste of broccoli last night and man that nappy this morning!

I had to re-arrange my appointment due to my LB being unwell, they asked if I had my questionnaire still which I did but since then I’ve put the old appointment letter in the bin along with the questionnaire! 🙈😅 If I call up will they send me a new one or is there somewhere else to get one from?

Baby has 8 week jabs this week, do I need to sterilise the Calpol syringe?

Despite everyone telling us that this would resolve, our baby still cries a lot during the day and evening, suffers from a lot of wind which causes him to sometimes wake up crying in the middle of naps/playtime/walks in the pram. Anytime else still have this? He has Biogaia drops, I do baby massage on his tummy, bur...

My 5 day old baby is constipated and I don’t know how to help, I know in the hospital they did a rectal temperature check to help get him unconstipated, I don’t have one here at home and don’t know what to do and it’s causing his stomach to be in pain.

Hello. This is my second baby and it’s much harder than number 1! She does not like to go down at night- sleeps like a dream on me though! She has terrible wind -both ends( stomach often feels hard). She did have a rash on her face and torso and has mucus in her poo. The rash has gone . She now has steaks of blood...

I have intercepted every possible accident for her almost 11 months of life. Of course the first time I’m fully solo and on day 4 of no napping, has to be attached to me at alll times she falls out of her high chair. I could have sworn I buckled her in but I didn’t and I am wracked with guilt. She didn’t hit her hea...

My baby boy seems to only poo once every other day, He doesn’t seem in pain or uncomfortable and doesn’t spit up any milk either. Does anyone else experience this? Worried it’s not normal or is it because it’s always been this way?

My 5 month old is currently teething. He's got a diaper rash and just had literally yellow liquid come out of his butt.............. Is this normal? I literally heard it gush out into his diaper

Hey guys, so this afternoon my little one was sitting on his play mat and lent forward to hug the dog but the dog moved so he sort of faceplanted onto the mat. He cried a little so I picked him up to hug him and he passed out/his eyes rolled back. It was of course terrifying and I breathed into his mouth and rubbed ...

What were everyone’s babies like the night/day after their 8 week jabs?

I had the no kissing rule in place, but now baby is nearly 9 months old, I’m wondering is it okay for family to kiss them or have you kept that rule in place?
