Has anyone taken baby to osteopath to release tension? If yes where was this based?

My almost 9 month old usually has a dirty nappy every other day. However in less than 24h he has already taken 4 big poos and I don’t know if that is normal. It doesn’t look like diarrhoea but the last nappy was of a mustard color, lighter consistency and had little bits and some mucus. Has anyone experience this w...

My son (breastfed) has been CONSTANTLY pooing for a few days. Way more than usual, like 10+ times a day. Not a lot comes out either.

Hi, I have a five month old who’s a “happy spitter” it’s peaking at the moment we are constantly outfit changing. I’m worried with solids round the corner that he will also throw up food. Would love to hear others experiences x

I filled out the paperwork at the hospital for the birth certificate but haven’t received it yet and I’m freaking out cause I need it asap for my health insurance. When did y’all get your babies birth cert? Do i have to fill anything else out or go somewhere?

When did everyone first bath their newborn? His cord fell off yesterday, he’s a week old today. Can you bath them as soon as it comes off or should I wait for it to heal a bit first? Also any tips for making his first bath enjoyable for him?🤞🏻

Hi everyone, My LG is 6 weeks and now doing more tummy time and have just ordered a little playmat etc as she loves a wriggle round so this has now got me thinking about a playpen as we have a little dog (cavachon) who loves stealing stuff like toys and has to be in the middle of everything. Was always my intenti...

I'm hoping to have a planned C-section after a fairly traumatic natural birth last time. My biggest worry at the minute is that we only have a bath at home (our water pressure isn't strong enough to have a shower, and we're in rented housing so couldn't put a shower in anyway). I'm not entirely sure how I'd manage n...
