Sorry this is a bit of a long post but I really need advice please. my baby girl is 7.5 months and fights every nap and sleep time like her life depends on it, the more tired she gets the harder she fights to the stage its actually kind of aggressive and throws her body as if to physically Fight the sleep. I know ...

My son (19 montns) can drink from straw cup, sippy cup, ans open cup but he still wants a bottle at night, when should I stop bottle completely?

When can I start collecting colostrum and how do I go about storing it ? I’m 29+5 and today I’ve started leaking already. I didn’t get any leaking or milk until after my first was born so I don’t really know how to go about collecting or storing it?

Hi ladies, my little boy is 6 an a half months, and for the past maybe week or so, hes really gone off his milk, hell have the bottle have an ounce or so, and then just completely push it away or play with it, he drinks it just a little while after, could this be teething? Or is it something i should speak to my HV ...

Please recommend.. I’m using avent Philips I don’t think it’s colic free

My baby is 4 weeks, she’s on 4 ounces and almost every single feed she will fall asleep after 2 ounces, or will stop for a bit then want the rest about 20 mins later. This morning we tried using the little bottles from when we were in hospital and she downed them no problem. I think the teat is faster flowing than t...

Anyone been told what they can use on baby? My baby has flaky skin on hands and feet and coconut oil (midwife recommendation) isnt working

How are we all coping with our 8 month olds? Bc I’m struggling🫠 my little girl just seems frustrated all the time, can’t seem to keep her entertained for longer than a minute. Unsure if it’s teething, separation anxiety, or just general fussiness. Anyone had the same?

Okay so my non verbal nearly 3 year old who couldn’t speak at all really until he started saying “more” & “mama” which was great now all he is saying is mummy and daddy but in an American accent? For reference we are Scottish lol. Like how? Where is he getting this from hahaha.

I have been exclusively breastfeeding for 5 weeks and I have a pain in both of my nipples that has gotten worse and worse to the point where I'm ready to give up! No one seems to understand the pain as it isn't my skin (no cracking or bleeding) it feels like it is underneath my nipple inside my boob. Literally feels...

What breast pumps does everyone recommend? If you have pros / cons with any you’ve experienced would be great ☺️ thanks!

Anybody have any advice? My little girl is 4 weeks old and is so calm and easy to settle during the day. From 6-9pm she is inconsolable- crying, fussing, looks like tummy ache etc. it’s awful.

When you have went through the checklist of your babies needs and they are met but nothing settles them do you let them just cry it out & fall asleep or cuddle them for what could be up to 1hr+ before they give in to sleep and more than likely wake when you put them down in bed (6 month old)

Breastfeeding mamas, how are we feeling about stopping to feed completely? Has anybody had success stories, please send recommendations! We're getting to the stage of my very aware 13 month old lifting my shirt for a feed and I'm worried this could be embarrassing in public 😅

Hi! Hoping for some advice! I have a KIT day at work in 2 weeks, LG will be at home with dad and will have bottles from milk supply in fridge/ freezer. She is normally BF during the day so first time leaving her and pumping. Firstly - I am assuming I pump every 3 hours to maintain supply, her regular feeding pa...

My daughter has been waking up at 5:30/6 AM since the clocks changed. It doesn’t matter what time we put her to bed or if she napped or not. Nothing seems to get her to sleep in (or through the night). She’s never slept well and everyone told us to would get better with age…but here she is, almost 3 and still doesn’...

Is this the 4 month sleep regression or is my girl just looking for comfort in the night? I am exhausted 😩

Any idea what this could be? Could it be CMPA or am I being dramatic… more pics in comments if I can Poo’s are normal, he’s straining quite hard, farting a bit, being quite fussy, wants to be held all the time. 5 weeks old today.

Hello! Has anyone tried or heard of a vibrating toy that goes on the baby's tummy to relieve gas? Baby has gas and maybe reflux issues. I have an appt next week and will mention it to the Pediatrician. I'm not switching formulas... there's 101 different types and it's too much. I've tried burping more often during...
