Hello! I have decided to not vaccinate my 5 month old. For those of you who haven’t vaccinated their kids what did you use to boost their immune system?

My little boy is 9 days old, he’s on Kendamil formula. Every evening he seems really uncomfortable and struggles to poo. It’s the only time he cries and he gets bloated. Does anyone have any tips how to help this? I’ve tried tummy massages and bicycle moves with his legs but doesn’t seem to help. Hate seeing him up...

Hey ladies, I’m currently 17 weeks pregnant and my midwife recently asked me If I will be having any of the jabs, I know there is 3 different. Has anyone got children already or further along in pregnancy that could explain for me😁

Hey, I am wondering whether you put your baby in a bath seat when they have a bath or you just hold them. My baby is 8 months and can sit unaided so we hold her but when there is just one of us its hard to hold and wash. I have seen on amazon there are seats you can put in the bath.: What does everyone do?

Anyone know any natural remedies for constipation for 2 year old

Hi there, my baby is nearly 9 weeks old and is ebf. He normally feeds well but recently has been really restless when feeding, I try changing positions and burping throughout but tonight he was literally screaming. I think it might be reflux- has anyone been to the GP or used infant gaviscon or baby omeprazole. I’m ...

Is there any way to repair this or is it just trash? It’s otherwise in good condition. It’s just the spine.

Baby girl is sitting, crawling and climbing. Baths in the original baby tub are getting harder and harder as she wants to move around.

Is it normal for them to poop up to 5 times a day? My LO has a very active bowel and poops on average 3-5 times a day. She has 3 meals with snacks in between. Just wondering if this is normal for this stage?

I feel like it’s a shame our little ones miss out by just a month or 2… is there any options for their age group? We get enough bugs and I’m trying to avoid what we can!

My 4 month old has severe reflux currently on thickner no help what so ever causing constipation doctor said to start aptamil acid reflux. But heard it can cause more constipation so then they decided I should start weaning her she has been having very little amount of puree for the last 2 days but has become so muc...

When are we meant to get check-ins from the health visitors/GP? I recall my health visitor saying the next one would be 12 months. Still haven't heard anything but some friends are getting check-ins around 8 months?

Hey, just wondering if anyone else is finding their baby super fussy around the 12 week mark? It seems like all of a sudden he is just hardly happy, crying lots, very fussy, hungry for milk but then refuses to take etc. trying to figure out what it is I’m doing wrong!

For the past week now my 12 week old has been feeding for about 10 minutes then crying in pain. She’s barely fed much today. She’s thought she was constipated but she’s had a big poo and still like that. Could it be wind? Has anyone experienced this? What did they do? I feel stressed and upset 😭

Hi everyone! Looking for advice. I’m in my first trimester and I’m having chronic diarrhea. Is there anything I can do to stop this without taking anti diarrheal meds that my doctor recommended? So far I’ve seen that bone broth helps so I may make that but looking for more suggestions. Thanks!

Hi all, Just a quick one my little boy had his jabs Monday and he has lots of random little red marks on his body, plus a few rashy areas. Is this normal or should I be concerned?

Is it worth getting? & would it mess my back up?

Has anyone experienced this. I thought bowels maybe we’re going back to normal, but it’s not. I don’t get any stomach aches as such but it’s very frustrating that I cannot empty bowels and my stools don’t come out properly formed.

Our twins have out grown the angel bath seat and we bought one of those upright seats but it’s so difficult to wash them especially their butts and hair. What’s everyone using or tips for the upright seat. Thanks!

How long does a trainee HV shadow our main one? And can we ask that a trainee doesn’t come? Or do they have to ask us permission/just let us know before hand? Just curious
