I am borrowing this from my local library and highly recommend. Especially if you have a newborn or have one on the way. It says it’s for all ages and stages so I’m hoping to find some helpful info for toddlers. My little guy still wakes multiple times per night and he will be 2 next month. 💀 he’s always been a…

Hello mums, My 3 year old developed a bit of a fear of the dark and curtains 6 months ago and we're now at the point where she needs her hand holding to sleep (about 15 mins when she's tired). My husband also works lates every 5 days and I have an 11 month old baby that needs feeding to sleep and a few resttles for...

How are we handling it cause my toddler is refusing naps and taking 2 hour battle to sleep at night. I can’t. I’m exhausted.

My baby is 11 months old (8 months adjusted). She has her first cold, and her grandma wants to visit. Did you allow visitors when your baby was sick?

How often does your baby go at night between feeds, I am 3 weeks pp and my baby would sleep all night if she could, we formula feed during the night and breastfeed during the day and wondered how long you do between night feeds

6w LD has in the last 3-4 day been subject to reflux consistently throwing up after every feed despite winding her, feeding her upright etc..She also had less consistent poo as she would have 1-2 day with no bowel movement and huge ones the day after. I can see she is gasy as she grunts in her sleep and we started g...

Does anyone know if there is a limit on the amount of baby milk formula you can take through security?

How is the sexual dynamic in your relationship since birth? Specifically anyone who is bed-sharing and exclusively breastfeeding. We just can’t align our views or needs. It feels like there are so many barriers to intimacy - not least the ever-present 14 week old baby.

Does anyone have any recommendations on baby shoes? My little one has chubby feet , can’t fit in to clarks, even the extra wide one, the problem is not the width is the height of the shoe, so the distance from the top of the shoe to the insole bottom if you get me, are there any other brands with bigger inner space ...

Anyone basically always in a bad mood? lol (25 weeks fyi)

My LB sleeps on his side, he sometimes sleeps on his back but mainly on his side. Is this normal? Is it just his comfy position? We co sleep and he has always side slept, just wondered today if it’s normal he is 6wks

So my boy has now started rolling in his cot when I put him down to sleep which wakes him up. We’ve not had a good night sleep last night at all as he keeps rolling on his tummy and can’t roll back then starts crying. Any help or tips would be much appreciated 😩

For anyone that has introduced a duvet and pillow, how did you know they were ready?

Feeling really anxious about my LO sleeping on her belly since a couple of days ago! She seems comfortable sleeping that way. I always put her down on her back and then she'd self settle and roll over to sleep on her belly. Should I be worried??

Just wondering if my baby is going through the 4 month sleep regression? Has anyone had this before? He’s 12 weeks, his sleep has been non existent now for the last 2 days😭
