Our LO used to love baths and would enjoy splashing around in our bathtub with his toys. Suddenly it seems like he’s terrified of the tub and just cries the whole time he’s in there. Has anyone experienced this?

Spitting up curdled milk

Hi! My baby spits up curdled milk all day. I tried going dairy and soy free and that didn’t help. We are on acid reflux medication and that doesn’t help. He’s gaining weight just fine and doesn’t have discomfort with the spit ups. Should I be concerned if he’s spitting up curdled milk all day?

I could be wrong as I’m a first time Mummy, but I think my little one has colic.

She is ...
