Is anyone’s lo in a single bed now? I’m looking to get lo in her own room , we currently cuddle to sleep on our bed (floor bed) and transfer to cot but she always ends up back with us early hours as she’s rolling into the bars and waking herself up then cries out for more cuddles.

Does anyone have this bag and recommend it or have any other suggestions please? Looking for a big, durable tote now I don’t really need the changing bag!

My husband is getting easily frustrated when baby refuses to take the bottle from him. It’s him who’s introducing them as it will be him feeding baby in my absence. Any tips? For him and bottles?

Hi mums ! My baby is 5 months soon- I am a first time mum - I am still breast feeding and I just got my period tonight … does this mean breastfeeding is over for me ? Will it stop now that I got my period 🥺

My son (10.5 months old - 8.5 months corrected) has always been a good sleep he was waking up once a night for half a feed and some nights was sleeping through the night. For the last 3 weeks sleep has been all over the place- most night he will get up 2/3 times screaming for his milk (he’s never been that fussed w...

My toddler is an only child and I’ve been told that her being an only child will mean she will struggle to be around other children and not be very social but my toddler is completely the opposite of the stereotypical of only child stuff I’ve heard. She would walk into a room with other children and quickly make fr...

My 12 month old is due to start nursery and still a bottle refuser. She will have sips of water at a push but mostly just wants boob. I’m worried about her getting dehydrated in the hot weather.

I got my period back at 5 weeks PP and it never really affected my milk until I was maybe 6-7months PP. now, on average I pump 20-24oz a day. But the pa...

I have a 2.5yr old boy and my 9 week old baby girl. My toddler was always a ‘miserable’ baby, always crying and I thought this time would be different. But this baby is the same and I can’t help but think that it’s me and I’m doing something wrong to make them this way. I feel so embarrassed meeting up with people ...

Anyone else’s toddler HATE the swing at the park!? Mine is 20 months old and literally refuses and does a runner to something else 😂 she’s been in a swing once when she was a baby and refused ever since haha. But she loves the roundabout and slides and climbing

I’m due on bonfire night so quite early on but I am constantly worried that I’m failing as a mum already. My two year olds tantrums are getting too much recently and I know I’m thinking about our next bundle and I’m just constantly worried I’m not cut out for it 😭 hormones probably but feel awful

Would you take your 18m LO to a friends knowing their child has chickenpox? I am torn between my LO not catching it but also wanting to catch it so he has it at an early age.

Anyone else? My little girl is a slow eater so we usually do lunch just after 11 in order to try for a 12pm nap. How is there time to go out and do things before this??

LO will be 6 months on the 1st. I’ve been exclusively breastfeeding since birth, however I’m losing so much weight (not wanted) and I just really don’t feel confident in myself anymore. Pre-pregnancy I was 75kg, today I weighed myself and I’m 58kg. Has anyone been through similar and can offer any advice? I’m so st...
