Random question but my LG’s first set of injections, an appointment was made for us to have them done - but I haven’t heard anything about the next set. I’m based in Kent, and just wondered if anyone had to make an appt themselves for the second round? Sorry it’s a bit of a boring question, but just not sure wheth...

She’s refluxy too so she spits up and then shoves her hands in her gob. And drools everywhere. She’s sat here laughing at my misfortune😂😩

Advice needed! My 3 month old has suddenly started crying during his feeds. I’ve tried burping, changing and he’s been on Infacol for nearly two months which has been amazing! Is it time I upped the teat size?

I had to take naproxen today just to function. I'd love to hear all your chronic pain management self care things please. Low cost would be great. I'm m so scared how I'm gonna raise my toddler for the next twenty yrs

My baby has not pooped for the past two days and nothing yet today either. She is 1 month old, is it concerning enough to call the doctor?

My 5 week old is a fart machine and my gosh they stink. The GP has reassured me it’s ok but curious to hear if anyone else’s baby is a fart machine. She literally wakes herself with the sound and smell 😂

My nearly 3 week old is constantly crying after a feed with gas pain. I’ve used infacol for a week now, burp her after every ounce and sit her upright for 20/30 mins after every feed but still she’s suffering with gas pain, she will wake up from her naps crying from pain and I’ve been trying a dummy for 3 weeks now ...

My health visitor is a bit late and I have my first meeting with her on Tuesday. What type of things do they ask/ do? She said it could last an hour depending on how chatty we are. I’ll be 38 + 4 and I do not have the energy 😅

My daughter has been sick on and off (snotty and cough) for the last week. Now she's severely constipated. She's 2, toilet trained, but in extreme pain. Been up every 20 mins during the night with stomach pain. I've given her lactulose and she's drinking plenty of water. Any recommendations? Will ring the doctors th...

Hiya lovely people! My baby has his first vaccinations today any I don't know what to expect, I'm pretty nervous if I'm honest... He did amazing when he had his blood spot test but he was on the boob and I don't know if he will be hungry at the time of the vaccinations nor if it will be possible to feed him whilst ...

My baby is due her jabs today but she's got a cold, apart from the snotty nose and slight cough she's fine in herself. Is this considered as an illness where she can't have the jabs?

My baby had his second lot of vaccinations yesterday morning. Through the day he was ok but tonight has just been an absolute nightmare. He will only settle in mine or his dad’s arms and as soon as you put him down he screams and screams. He’s got a temperature too. Given him calpol but still doesn’t seem to be help...

Anyone have any good remedies for a constipated 2 month old?

In desperate need of some help. My little one is EBF however she has super bad reflux. She is still gaining weight so no one seems inclined to help. But after every feed she is projectile vomiting. I have tried keeping a food diary and cutting out foods which make her fussy. I have tried infacol to help with trappe...

Hey mommas, im due in November in the hottopic with my pregnancy in the family is the vaccines what do i need to do and what can i space out ??

7 weeks- Anyone else suffered with constipation?! I assumed it was the pregnacare vitamins (due to the iron) but since stopping them it hasn’t made a difference 😅

Im a mom of a 4 YO and expecting my second mid May. Literally right around the corner and I still feel undecided about vaccinations. My son is up to date on vaccines (not including COVID - my family chose not to do this so none of us are) and he is also circumcised - both things that I wish I had done more research ...

Quick question: My son (4) has never had a real hair cut. We have one scheduled in about an hour. He has started twirling his hair, I have to detangle this section everyday.would it be wrong to cut his hair short enough so he can’t do that, or would be wrong as it might be something he does to self sooth? Thanks. ...
