Hello does anyone have a travel system/pushchair from Ickle Bubba? I see good deals for them but don’t know anyone that’s had one. Would like some real feedback 😊 I know they stock them in some boots to have a look at, but not very many!

Am I wrong for asking my mother to get an RSV test when she was recenly exposed to my niece and nephew who had caught it? She made it seem like it was a big deal me asking her to do so and we have a Christmas event at her house in 3 days. I have a 10 month old and RSV can be dangerous and potentially my daughter...

Our baby (7 months) has his own room and we've tried to put him in there to sleep from 6 months, but he wakes up every hour. Husband works 7am to 6pm so cannot wake up at night. I am tired all day from taking care of the baby and other chores. As a result, baby sleeps in our bed, and the husband sleeps in the spare ...

Our little boy (one in early Jan) was sleeping very well - 10 or 11 hours per night as recently as mid November - but for the past month it’s been totally chaotic, a period of refusing naps til super late and now though napping ok is waking every hour or two in the night and sometimes staying awake for ages. He ha...

So my baby boy is 15 weeks now and he weighs 8.9 kg (19.6 pounds) and he's on 98/99th percentile weight and height wise, 95th in head circumference. Currently wearing nappies size 4. Since birth he's gained weight like crazy, he never lost weight after birth and gained 1.5 kg in the first 2 weeks. I'm happy he's gro...

How much eye contact should a two week old be making with you? I’m trying not to worry but as a first time mum I have nothing to compare it to! I feel like my baby is avoiding eye contact, not all the time but a lot of the time. He is smiley but will often turn his head and smile at nothing or just randomly smile w...

My LO hasnt drank milk for 3 months now. We initially tried everything to get her to drink milk again but then we realised she just isn't going to drink it. We try to get calcium in her and dairy where possible...but do you think in the long run, not drinking milk will be damaging for her??

I need to just rant about this because I just don’t know how to feel about this. So one of my best friends come round on the weekend and she came to look at our nursery for our baby girl. Later that day my partner was on his Christmas party and bumped into my friend who then made a comment that ‘She had a bad feelin...

Anyone else's LO just intolerable right now? Constantly crying and whining for no obvious reasons?

so my baby girl turned 1 today and i’ve heard ofc about putting baby into cows milk after 12 months. I’m a breastfeeding mumma but ofc want to stop soon. Anyone got any tips on moving her into cows milk or should i just try her and see how she is?

I now have a 9 week old as well as my April 22 baby. He's done really well adjusting and there are still bits of jealousy and telling us to put baby down but he is excited to see her etc. I think when she can interact more with him, it will be that big easier. Right now she poorly and crying lots, she's a screamer ...

I just need a few mins peace to plate up her food without her screaming and holding onto my trousers!! She can remove the suction fidget spinners 😭 normal toys get fired on to the floor. Im tired lol

Seems to be a lot of hype and pressure for these! I will work on them over the next couple of months, bottle has meant comfort for a YEAR, zero interest in forcing baby to change this all suddenly.

my baby girl is 8 and a half months old and for weeks now we've not been sleeping, she refuses to nap until she gets to the point where she's so tired she'll just fall asleep anywhere, if she naps on me she will have a good couple of hours but will only sleep for about 20 minutes if she falls asleep anywhere else or...

My little one is 16 weeks and her feeding schedule has gone wild. I try and offer her 5oz every 3 hours during the day. She sleeps through with no more than 1 night feed. Today she had a bottle of between 3-6oz at 7, 10, 12.30, 2.30, 5 and a top up at 6.30pm before bed at 7. But then she woke up an hour later screa...

My little boy who’s 15.5 months old religiously wakes up at 5am. We have tried a later bedtime, and it doesn’t work. He has one nap, anywhere between 1-2 hours long. Does anyone have tips of how to get him to sleep longer? He wakes up a couple times in the night just to be laid back down and he goes back to sleep...

My baby girl is 1 month and 3 weeks old. She had an allergic reaction to aptamil when she was about 4 weeks old. She went on this new milk and has been perfectly fine until now. Iv noticed after a feed she screams for no reason or sometimes she can randomly wake up and scream for 2 hours at a time and won’t settle. ...

Baby is drinking lots of water having 3 meals and snacks during day... should I top up with a bottle sometime during day? Not sure when to fit it in??? Is yes how m...

It's day 4 of my LO refusing bedtime. It takes up to 3 hrs for him to finally go to sleep. Normally, he's great and falls asleep within 15 minutes. Is this a sleep regression?

My little one is 12 months, looking for something not too pricey to fit in VW polo (it’s a small car) 25th percentile for weight 50th percentile for height Thanks! ☺️
