What age is a good age to switch my son who is currently 16 almost 17 months old to a typical toddler bed?

At what age does the doctor stop asking for your baby to be naked? I was just thinking about teaching them about privacy and private areas, not letting others touch them and how I would explain or handle when it comes to care providers

Does anyone else baby do this? 😅 She is constantly pulling herself up to stand and hated learning to crawl, I figured she would skip it altogether, but she managed to figure out how to get around using her foot and one knee. 😂 it's the funniest, cutest thing I have ever seen!

I’m trying to increase my supply by pumping after feeds, and I’m not producing a lot plus he’s cluster feeding so I just feel like I’m empty. Which side do I offer first for the next feed if for example he eats on the right side last and then after pumping my left side produces twice as much as the right? Would I of...

My babe is going to be 12 weeks on Friday. She’s not really rolling over yet but is wacking her legs like a crazy little gremlin! So I was worried and started unswaddling her and sleep has been horrible lol I swaddled her tonight bc k thought maybe we just aren’t there yet? But how did you manage baby sleep and not ...

I have a newborn baby girl and I’m wondering how to clean her private parts. Should I be cleaning in between the labia? The deposit is too thick and doesn’t wash away with oil, soap and water. I don’t know what to do

I’m really struggling I can’t afford a sleep specialist even tho I bloody wish I could She wakes 10 times minimum a night I’m still living on 2/3 hours sleep a day I just feel like I’m being tortured She’s up at 5:30/6 each day doesn’t matter how late she does to bed I’m really struggling I can’t say it hasn’t ma...

My 19 day old is constantly cluster feeding like every hour for 10-20mins. I'm worried I'm not making enough milk for him. How did/dosleeve mummas cope?. I'm trying to breastfeed but feel like my baby needs top up with formula we are not sleeping and this mumma is at break point

Ive been EBF for 12 weeks, but am suffering from major ppd and ppa. Im on lexapro, just started Wellbutrin and occasionally take Ativan until the Wellbutrin kicks in. Baby pediatrician said this was fine as did my maternal psych but my anxiety is so bad im freaking out over every “new thing” baby does. Or if she sta...

Okay how are we making sure we take care of ourselves while also taking care of the family? I have a 19 month old and 7 week old and I don’t even feel like a person anymore. I made sure to get my hair done before the baby came and managed to tear myself away for an hour to get a manicure to try and fight off the ppd...

I swear I have the hardest to deal child ever to exist. She wakes up at a decent time and goes to bed at a decent time I would say her sleep has been very broken and lately hasn’t been able to settle properly until about 2am in the morning. Between 9pm - 2am she’s in and out of sleep and when she’s up she’s crying a...

Hi, my 5 week old is being formula fed on Kendamil whole milk and his poos have been absolutely horrendous. They smell super strong and are slightly loose and wondered if this was normal? I know all babies are different but the poos just seem extreme! I wondered if he had CMPA but he’s never sick or spits up his milk x

We finally got her actually crawling and not dragging herself around

Back to work in just over a month and me little boy won't take a bottle Any advice for bottles for breastfeeding babies? Don't want to spend a fortune 😔

I’m thinking about stopping breastfeeding.. I’m way too stressed out taking care of baby plus cleaning up after everyone including myself. I’m not producing much and my baby is getting rashes. I’m starting to think it’s something I’m eating but I’m wayyy too tired to change my diet. Am I being selfish? When have yal...

How often are you mama’s breastfeeding baby? Do you wait for their cue which sometimes can be 4+ hours or do we wake baby up and feed sooner? Also for how long should a 3 week old be on the nipple for?

Is it possible for a 5 month old to be talking? My mom and I clearly heard her say “hi” twice today and when she was crying I heard “mamma” three times today.

Hi mummas. My 8mo little boy has been exclusively breastfed.. apart from the odd bottle of expressed milk between 3-6m… he’s now refusing the bottle. I’d like to go out for some evenings and maybe an overnight without him at some point but I can’t see how I’m going to get there. He had a huge meltdown tonight when ...
