Can someone please tell me why all of a sudden my 8 month olds head flops forward when asleep in the car?!???? I get so so worried driving, as sometimes there no where safe to stop and reposition his head. Does this mean he’s too big for the seat? Are my back seats to slanted? Am I putting him in wrong?

Hi! FTM here. My lo will be 4 weeks on Tuesday, and she has slept through the night the past 2 nights. She slept 9 hours one night and 8 hours last night. And she’s slept 7 hours one night last week. She was 2 weeks past her due date, so all the milestone apps consider her 6 weeks. According to Dr. Google, she’s wa...

Wake to feed or feed when they wake

So nervous about going to my in laws for Christmas about how my little one is going to sleep. We usually cosleep but this isn’t going to be an option as the beds there are so high and also soft mattresses. They have a travel cot for her. Any tips to make it less painful?

So my husband and I drove up with our baby to visit his parents as we won’t be spending time with them at Christmas. We get there and found out that my MIL forced my FIL to come to the Christmas meal but he didn’t want to as he is sick with a cold. We only found out once we were seated at the table which made me so ...

Are you at 1 nap yet? Ok my almost 1 yr old has been sleeping like garbage and recently we changed from 2 to 1 naps and it seems to be working!😩 but man it is hard during the day!😂 He goes to be strictly at 6:45-7pm. He doesn’t seem to be too overtired or cranky.

Hi, I am 9 months pp and still feel like I’m constantly overwhelmed, overstimulated, and ragey. I feel like I’m always in a bad mood and my husband has noticed and brought up his concerns about it. Is there anything I can do or take to help? I’ve read about the benefits of ashwagandha but I’m still breastfeeding and...

Anyone else’s almost/ 6 month old waking before 5am? Just the past couple days my LO Has been waking up before 5am. He was doing so good as of recently and was sleeping 9-10 hours. He’s getting enough daytime sleep that ranges 3-4 hrs, and has an early bed time of 8:15pm- 8:30pm. And sleeps through the night. ...

Hi all, my 4 MO doesn’t seem to want to grab his feet (or even try!). Should I be concerned?

I've been seeing a few discussions here about naps and dropping a nap. I thought oh yes I could really do with a 2 hour break when LO naps, so I can get loads done. Hahaha (yeah right) So I thought maybe my LO is ready to drop nap, so I tried it for the last 3 days, and his one nap is at 12 o clock after 4 hours wak...

I fitted my car seat in today its a joie i-spin 360 and the base is attached to the seat will this be a problem when i leave the hospital or is that ok?

My 5 week old has episodes of breathing quicker than usual the HV said it was fine and wasn't concerned. He was born at 38 weeks and not had any steroids for his lungs. Does anyone know when this will settle down?

My 10 month old loves a contact nap and I love them too! Everyone around me seems to have such an opinion on me “needing to get him to nap in his cot” and I just don’t want to! He goes down fine at night and I figure he’s soon going to be too big to sleep on me so I’m making the most of it. Is anyone else just going...

New mum here! How is best to bathe little one? When can they have a proper bath? My little boy is 4 days old and no one really gave us any advice on bathing so I've just been giving him a wipe down each morning.

Hi guys. My little boy is 8 months now and last night I think he had a night terror but it was so freaky I wasn't sure if I needed to ring 111. He started screaming in his sleep, like a blood curdling scream. We tried everything to wake him up gently and nothing worked. So I picked him up in the hope it would sooth ...

What are your schedules and nap lengths?

The problem I’m having at the moment is once I’ve sterilised my daughters bottles the condensation on them stays there for what seems like forever and I’ve been told I can’t dry them off with a cloth/tea towel literally anything. I have no idea if it’s fine to leave the condensation in the bottle and feed her or if ...

My son is 15 months old, recently I feel like his bottles of cows milk are causing him to get painfully constipated, I’ve just bought some soy milk to see if that helps him at all, he’s only on one bottle in the morning and night now, anyone else found this with cows milk?

Recently, my lo has been hating the car seat. As soon as we put him in, he'll start screaming and will only stop when we take him out. Car journeys are starting to become extremely stressful. We've added a toy onto his car seat to keep him entertained. It works for the first couple of minutes and then he will start...
