I’m either going mad, have baby brain or just blonde😂 so I’ve got sleepsuits that say up to 3 months & on the others it says 0-3 months. Do I separate them to what it says or do I put the up to 3 and 0-3 together?🫠

so yesterday my husband accidentally stepped on my littles ones toes. she didnt cry as much yesterday but i woke up to this today and i dont know what to do!!

Hi ladies, my baby girl is coming in 2 weeks at 36 weeks gestation. She is a very tiny estimated weight at birth of 4lbs/5lbs and will most likely be in NICU. I know you’re not meant to collect colostrum until week 37 but could I start at week 36, possibly a few days before she’s due? I’m having a c section and I wa...

I am 10months into postpartum. I have got baby hair. If you got those in your postpartum journey, how did you manage those ?

it’s been more than 3 months pp and my partner didn’t touch me yet. of course it’s hard and we are stressed and sometimes argue and sort it out.. he used to ask if i’ve healed in the first 3-4 weeks and then nothing. finally i’ve decided to try it on my own.. but I ended up crying because I miss him so bad. I tried ...

I am a week postpartum and I am slowly losing it with my MIL. So I had a rule that I will let people know once I am ready for guests however my baby was in the NICU when he was first born for 4 days and I had my own mum come over to help us with some more clothes and necessities. I then felt bad so I said MIL can co...

Hi I'm first time mum, currently 28 weeks pregnant. I'm hoping to breast feed and pump (I understand this is hard but want to give it a try). I am currently a 36H and will no doubt grow when baby gets closer to arriving. Can anyone recommend a good hands free pump for the bigger breasted ladies?

What do you all do to put your baby down for day naps?

I’m one week postpartum and every now and again I just cannot stop crying I am so emotional and hormonal. I feel awful because I have my beautiful daughter. Is this normal to feel like this? Not sure if it’s lack of sleep too

Hi everyone! My midwife has advised me to start collecting colostrum as of a few days ago and I’m unsure as to how much I should be collecting! I saw everyone saying one or two syringes a time. On my first day I collected 5 syringes and day 4 I collected 12 syringes! Is there any reason I’m able to get so much?

Just had a big debate with my husband in regards to bf he doesnt agree or like me bf in public i want to compromise on me bf in public how can I still breastfeed without fully exposing myself or in social situations where family men are around but baby is crying. What would anyone suggest? Does anyone have ang other...

What time are you putting your babies to sleep and what time are they waking up? We currently do 7:30pm and she wakes anywhere between 4/5am and it’s KILLINGGGG ME! I read online somewhere that putting them to sleep earlier allows them to sleep in later🤷🏼‍♀️ so we are trying 6:30 bedtime tonight!

My 6m old boy is breastfed and just starting solids. His bedtime is around 6:30-7pm and I dream feed him at 10pm before I go to bed. For the past month he has been sleeping through until 7am. He dropped the 4am feed on his own, but I don’t know if this was just luck. I’d really like to drop this dream feed, but I’...

Has anyone found an aesthetic cover for the IKEA Highchair cushion that isn't £20? xx

I am exhausted daily as my little one is still up during the night, wakes early, I do the ending and cooking etc and yeah I’m just drained most days that I’m falling asleep my 9pm. My friend recently told me she and her partner are intimate every other night. I don’t necessarily think that’s the norm in our situatio...

I won’t be weaning until my baby is 6 months before people start but I’m buying the stuff now. What bottles are people buying for water? Unsure what to get and the HV wasn’t that helpful. Any recommendations appreciated 😊

Anyone else find the newborn stage an absolute killer. I see so many posts etc about missing it and how people loved it, but I found it sooo hard!

Hi everyone, My daughter is currently 16 months old and is getting to that age now where tantrums are becoming a thing and she's starting to slowly but surely test boundaries, doesnt like when we take stuff from her, move her to a different location in the house, her favourite word right now is 'no'...all that goo...

Anyone else find they’re next to me cribs really annoying? It’s hard to get out of bed because you have to shuffle down and they take up a lot of room. I’m trialing moving mine slightly away from the bed to enable me to move around a bit better. Has anyone else found this?

32 weeks and the past 3 days I’ve been getting Braxton hicks really badly and the pain has nearly had me in tears normally the pain was just uncomfortable but these 3 days I’ve had them it’s had me nearly crying anybody else get them really badly or should I be concerned?
