Hi girls! I’d love to know how often and what you’re doing in the way of giving your babies a clean My baby hates the bath and I’ve only managed to give him two baths since he was born. Otherwise I give him a clean down with some water, gentle wash and a cloth every 3-4 days! My partner hates seeing him so distres...

Hi all, I’m a FTM. I haven’t used any product yet for my babies bath: when should I start and any recommendations ? So far I’ve only been washing her with water lol

Has anyone noticed there little one having a lot of saliva in their mouth? The last couple of days I’ve noticed my daughter seems to have a lot in her mouth and sometimes it dribbles out the side of the mouth especially when she is lying in her mosses basket. I get a bit paranoid at night that she might choke on it....

What’s your little ones fav toys? Finding it hard to entertain my baby, she is so fussy at the moment! We got piano playmat and water tummy time mat but she’s only interested for 5 mins

When do they offer this? Or send out a questionnaire? Haven’t received mine yet or heard anything at all. Anyone else in the same boat?

How many times a day does your nursery post updates to their app? We get updates on food/sleep/nappy changes consistently. But we only really ever get one photo/activity update a day, and often none at all. It would be nice to see or hear more about what he’s up to. Wondering if this is the norm or if I’m just heli...

Hi When can I expect the flu jab? I’m currently 14 weeks Thank you

Any mums here with newborns who absolutely hate car seats and prams? We tried to tackle his silent reflux and colics thinking this may be the cause, but nothing helps. He can be distracted for a little bit, but every time goes into hysterics anyway. It’s been 3 months and I am running out of ideas, any recommendatio...

Any tips? My little girl is so so constipated she is really struggling to even get the slightest bit out. She is groaning shaking and crying. Her belly is so big now. We have lactulose seems to not be working day 3 and we have tried laxido also didn’t work. Poor little girl is so upset.

For mums that have had their babies 9-12 month review.. what sort of questions do they ask you?

My 20 days old hasn’t done any poo since 8 days now, any advice? Anyone else that experienced this with a breastfed newborn?

Hey there new mon here 🙋🏼‍♀️ My 1 week old havent had a poop in 24h and im a bit worried. Ive been formula feeding him during the day and breast milk at night. Idk if that makes a difference... hes not bloated either and it doesnt seem like anything is bothering him 🤷🏼‍♀️ if anyone has any advice...

My little one for about a month now has been doing some really explosive poos!! She used to poo several times a day and now will go every other day usually. If she’s laying down the nappy will catch it all just! If she’s in her pram or sitting in something it will go all up her back and down her legs 😫😫😫 I dread to…

So my baby gp isn’t the best but my baby girl had her first lot of jabs at 10 weeks so she supposed to have them last week at 14 weeks as we all know it’s every 4 weeks but I haven’t even heard off the gp about her 12 weeks jabs so I don’t know should I phone or wait it out as my gp is really shit 💩 or possibly…

How were you little ones after 12 week jabs? My LB is 15 weeks and he’s just cried since having them done 😩

Do any mamas just use bath time for what it is? To get the baby/child clean. Or are we all allowing some level playtime/toys in the bath? Severely unpopular opinion: I can’t stand bath toys. I don’t mind bath time fun such as bubbles and splash play. Thanks in advance.

Sorry for what it may be a daft question, but what is the difference between vomit and spit up for babies with reflux?

Has anyone taken their baby to see a cranial osteopath? My little boys labour was 40 minutes from first contraction to him being born and he suffers with bad reflux and a very poor sleeper. People at work have mentioned taking him to a cranial osteopath but I don’t know if it would be beneficial or not. I just wan...
