Mamas, please recommend me what works for your little one who screams when then poop. I’m in tears every time my little guy poops because he cries so hard. I’ve tried prune juice, prune apple juice, apple juice, prune puree, pear puree, and nothing has worked so far 😭 he just turned 1 on April 11th!

Help please mamas! My 4 and a half week old is formula fed on C&G milk and is a nightmare to burp after wards! he grunts in his sleep and as the night goes on he starts to thrash his legs around and grunt even more and it sounds like he’s coughing. I think it is definitely trapped gas but how do I know if there is m...

When are you allowed to bath with a c section

I’m in need of some advice. My 3 month old baby had just discovered he can kick off the bottom of the bath tub and push himself out his bath support seat! I’ve seen he can’t have the seat until 6 months so I’m wondering if other people’s babies have done the same and how did you manage it? (He’s never unsupervised ...

My 10 week old Lb is literally pooing so little and often. I’m changing maybe 20+ dirty nappies a day. He’s not struggling to go and he’s not showing any signs of actually being unwell so that’s good but it’s got watery bits in that soak into the nappy. Has anyone else had this? It’s constant 😩

My baby is 2 months and 2 weeks old and hasn’t pooped for about 29 hours. We gave him apple juice (as directed by nurse) but still nothing. We bicycled his legs but also still nothing. Anyone have any tips or tricks? He is still passing gas but I can tell he’s frustrated and wants to poop.. :(

I have an appointment this week to correct my son’s tongue tie. He’s 7 weeks and I’m just so nervous! Has anyone else been through it and can reassure me it’s not so bad? 🙏 We’ve been trying to avoid it but it’s getting more significant and we believe causing his horrible reflux

I’ve got SPD and finally have an appointment with the physio team next week. What should I expect? Is it worth it?

Hi first time mum here. Little boy is 8 weeks old since birth he’s only ever poo’d once or twice a week he’s also very sicky and a lot of thick mucus. I’ve changed his milk I’ve tried infacol what more can I do? Will the drs help us?

My 2yr old sons been really struggling straining to poo. I’m intolerant to a lot of food, and we found out he was struggling with full fat milk and swapped to soya a year ago which made him so much better. However probably for the past 2/3 months maybe he’s been really struggling to go. We are interested in bu...

Hi all, little man is nearly 8weeks old (where has that time gone!) any one else got their first lots of immunisations booked in? I’m so unsure of what I want him to have 🫣 xx

Hey! Just need a little bit of advice. My almost 4 mo baby is throwing up water with little milk specs in it, it smells almost like a sour milk/sick smell but it’s coming out like a water fountain?? It happens randomly and not just straight after a feed. I wouldn’t say it’s always consistent, it’s just happens now ...

My little boy is randomly sick an hour or so after feeds & it’s just water. He has suffered with reflux since birth. Started the weaning process & he’s taking well to food, just concerned that he’s randomly bringing up watery substance. Any suggestions of what this could be? Thanks x

I have a gynaecology appointment soon that I have been waiting on for several months! I am unable to have anyone watch my son (4 months) and was wondering if I’m allowed to bring him to the appointment? For reference, it Ian NHS hospital. Any advice welcome :)

What is everyone using these days? I was using the Schnuggle baby bath but our baby is chunky and he’s way outgrown it!

When reaserching I found more negative than positive results with baby gaviscon so I wanted to post a positive experience for any mums hesitant themselves to try it. My baby was going through a horrendous spell after being almost a dream. Constantly crying not sleeping it was absolutely awful she just seemed to be ...

Ive tried pace feeding, burping inbetween, keeping her sat up for like 30 mins to an hour after Nothing seems to be working We're even u...

What are the chances of my 2 year old catching something at soft play at this time of year?

I’m scared to vaccinate my baby tbh! She had her first set of vaccines and is due for her next round but I’m scared. I’ve heard about babies getting seizures from the fevers and regressing after getting them. Can someone comment their experience? Thank you

My nearly 20 month old will not sit down in the bath!! I have tried so much and she just refuses. Any advice on what else I can try? I literally dread bathtime 🙄
