My 2 week old hasn’t had a poo for 48 hours? He’s formula fed. I’ve given a warm bath, cycled his legs, massaged his tummy … should I contact GP or is there any other tips? This happened the other day he didn’t poo for 24 hours but did 2 blow outs the next day.

Little boy has been given CMPA milk from the doctors (pepti 1) and doesn’t have reflux. After reading up on the milk etc on here it seems it causes majority to get reflux? Do I need to start with a thickener or will it possibly not give him reflux? I’m so confused? I don’t want him to be constipated from the thicken...

My little boy is 20 weeks, he's predominantly breastfed but has a few bottles of formula each week. He's always had a typical baby runny poop, however he had one today that had the usual consistency/colour but also areas that had more texture/lumpy. Just wondering if this seems normal? Thank you!

So my baby has had diarrhea for about a week, she's off her food, she'll occasionally eat a bit but not like usual. She's drinking plenty of water and having her milk fine also no problems with sleep. She's mostly okay in herself. I don't wanna waste a Dr's appointment I know with adults they're not fussed as long a...

I was out with my baby (7 months) when she needed a change, there was a soft play but they wouldn't let us use the toilet without paying. Luckily there was a pub nearby and they let me use there.

Does anyone else's baby cry and fuss when being winded? Mine screams as soon as I take the bottle away and hates being up on my shoulder/ chest for winding. I try make it as gentle as possible so not to upset his tummy. It makes feeding really difficult and stressful and makes him really awake during a night feed. I...

Can babies get reflux at 3 months old? Penny sicks up most times she has a bottle - and it’s not always like a small bit, sometimes it’s quite a bit.

Hey, Does anyone know or have any advice on whether I should give my LO her first dose of calpol 4hrs before her jabs and then another dose straight after? The box says no more than 2 doses then to see a dr but I know she’s going to be feeling off for the first day or so so unsure if just 2 doses will be enough?

She is also needing winding after…
