Does anyone sterilise bottles with just boiling water? If so how do you do it please as I’m currently using the Milton cold water steriliser and I have been for a few months but I really don’t like how it smells and how the smell stays on the bottles, even when he’s drinking it I can smell it. It’s diluted bleach an...

I just dont know what to do anymore. She screams like this for hours and nothing settles her...

Is this a good suncream? She’ll be 6 months on the 8th and not sure what is the best to buy. And how old can they start having it

Anyone else’s 6 week old all of a sudden just not want to nap? She used to be a great sleeper and now she shows all the signs she tired but will just stare at me or lay there wide awake.

Absolute first time mam comment but when do you stop needing to wind a baby? Has anyone stopped yet? My girls never in discomfort if she falls asleep whilst feeding but I feel dead guilty if I don’t wind her 🥲

Husband said he could anchor the crib himself and I didn’t need to buy the pack of cables made to secure things like this

I have a 22 month old and a 5 month old and whilst grabbing the baby bottle I accidentally grabbed the wrong one so that my youngest had some sips of cow milk instead of her formula. She normally has cow milk based formula. I think she felt a weird taste and didn’t drink much of it, and as soon as I noticed and cha...

I am a first time mum and I was abit clueless and didn’t realise I needed to swap teat sizes! My daughter is 11 weeks old and has been on size 0 mam and I tried her with a 1 and it went down a lot better but obviously she’s meant to be on 2! Do I keep her on 1 (I’m going to have to buy more teats) or do I jump str...

6 nearly 7 week old baby feeding every 2 hrs - is anyone else’s baby the same? I had an appointment earlier with a nurse about my scar, and she was having general conversation, but then kinda made me feel bad when I told her he was still waking every 2 hours for a feed at his age 🥲 I’m always paranoid about over…

What are your baby milestones? ✨️

Okay, I’m feeding to sleep but I just don’t have the energy to get up 5 x a night and rock my baby back to sleep. Have I created this by feeding my baby to sleep? There hasn’t been a night since they were born where they’ve slept for more than 4 hours. I started out with my partner putting her to sleep with expresse...

I exclusively breastfeed my little boy and always burp him after feeding. He falls asleep and looks settled after feeding but when I burp him he then wakes up and becomes unsettled. Is anyone else having this problem? It then takes ages to settle him again

Please help , my daughter is almost 2 and I know she shouldn't really be having a baby bottle to have milk in morning and bed . But I have tried ones with straws and she only sipps at it and took over an hour to drink it . So would it be bad to get one of these bottles. Family members are telling me she already be ...

My 12 week old all of a sudden won't go in his pram bassinet 🤦🏻‍♀️ I'm not sure why as he's always loved it! Went in it Friday absolutely fine but since Saturday just screamed his head off in it & again today when he had an appointment. Has anyone got any tips I've tried everything I can think of but he just…

My partner doesn't want our daughter to have her 1st jabs. Since covid he's been against all jabs. She is due them tomorrow as we missed her appointment last time. What's your thoughts on jabs?

As in sucking it from your own nipple

The way my baby shakes his hand kind of concerns me.Does this look normal.

My wee girl had her 1 year jags yesterday afternoon and one of her legs has gone quite red round the injection. It’s also hot to touch and her thigh is hard. Is this a normal reaction?

How much did your little ones nap during the day at 4 months old?

I’d like to be free roaming with it, but that’s my main priority! It’s such a saturated market, I’d love some recommendations 🤪🤣
