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...

Is it possible to speed up feeding?

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...

Very angry hungry baby….

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.

At what age do you start covering up around your child?

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 ...

Oral thrush

Long one, sorry! Wondering if anyone else has experience this and what they did to help. My little one has suffered with oral thrush since she was a week old. She is now nearly 9 weeks.

9 month wellness check?

Hi group! As I just moved from America three months ago, I know things are done differently here. For example, our baby would have seen a doctor by now for her “9 month wellness check” where a full exam is done and developmental milestones are checked on as well as mental health checks for mom. Is there anything lik...

Stringy stool

Pic in comments. My LO had “stringy” stool this morning. I asked ChatGPT and of course got five different answers. lol. I’m thinking it’s just undigested milk, or a milk protein allergy, but I’ve already cut out dairy two days ago. If anyone else has dealt with a cmpa, is this just her body clearing the remainder of...

Has anyone bought the lovevery play kitchen?

If so, do you like it? Recommend it? Any cons (other than the price). I can't find any good YT reviews on it. I'm thinking of getting it as a birthday gift because I think it would be fun and allow her to be independent. She's already interested in helping me clean the kitchen.
