My son usually poops once a day, but hasn’t pooped in 2 days (6 months old) should I be concerned or is there anything I can do for him? He’s peeing a lot as per usual.

Has anybody asked the nurse to only administer 2 vsccines and book another day for other 2? 4 needles just seems like torture😫 My little boy has them tomorrow

Anyone got any experience with craniosynostosis (fusing of the sutures on the skull “plates” early)

Hi! I have the HV coming tomorrow, to my home to give me the red book and introduce themselves. I’m 36w and this is my second baby, first is 18 months. I never had this before- it seems a bit odd. Anyone know why they are coming? No safeguarding issues or anything social- just seems random and pointless 🤣

My son has his first flu jab on Sunday. Has anyone else’s little ones had this yet and had any side effects?

Please help! He's getting so constipated but he just won't drink. I've tried everything from different cups, straws, even letting him have fresh OJ and AJ (he usually has water). Nothing is working... Has anyone else had this situation? What helped? 🙏🏻

My baby boy is 15 days old and is experiencing burping and gastric issues. After taking burp and medicine still he cries a lot. Especially at midnight and is cranky all night. Any suggestions how to relieve colic baby?

Ladies how often do you bath your babies. I bathe my boy every other day when he stays there for a bit longer and play with his toys and on the other days we do a quick bath when I just clean him and we are out within few minutes. I’m wondering as I spoke to a friend and she said she only bathe her kids twice a week.

My little one is exclusively breastfed and only poops about once a week. I’ve talked to the pediatrician a few times since this has been happening since we left the hospital, and he just says this is normal for BF babies and not to worry but it stresses me out, especially when she starts getting super fussy/in pain ...

The hospital have contacted me to say it’s been detected that I’ve got low papp-a and that it puts myself and baby at higher risk of things. Has anyone heard of this or experienced it before?

What are peoples opinions? Are they not NHS recommended?

My nephew is 2 months old. Since day one he has not been able to poop regularly and sometimes goes THIRTEEN DAYS without going. BF and formula fed. Switched formulas and still no change. Anyone have experience with this? What has worked for you to help baby’s bowels? I’m so scared baby will go septic!! Help!!!

Baby had awful issues with painful and hard to pass gas. Started giving infocol before every feed which has helped a lot so far but I’m just wondering does that mean they’re on that for ages or how long until you can like stop giving them that? I read online they can do their own burps at 12 weeks or when did everyo...

Does anyone else's toddler throw up everytime you give them calpol or nurofen, he's 2 and got a temperature but just throws it up as soon as I give it to him, so annoying :( wondering if theres something else going on and how common this is!

My little guy has been having intense gas pain’s that keeps him up at night. I have to help him get his gas out. It’s only recently been this bad and I don’t know what to do?☹️ side note-He is breastfed, I changed my diet, I do give him gripe water, however, I don’t want to make him dependent on that either. I just ...
