Formula milk

My baby has been having Aptamil since he was born but I’m not sure if I should try something else? He doesn’t seem uncomfortable and isn’t showing the signs of what you would expect if they don’t agree with their formula milk, but he is still not pooing regularly and he is almost 5 weeks old. I’ve seen some people s...

Own room/crib

Has anyone transitioned their baby to their own room/big crib yet? I am not ready for her to be out of our room and I’m nervous about the SIDS peaking from 2-4 months and she just turned 4 months but I feel like she sleeps better/longer away from me. Idk what to do, a mama needs some sleep around here. She does have...

Feeling defeated

I want to say moving has been enjoyable but it hasn’t. My toddler was overwhelmed with the move. Screamed and cried the whole two days of moving. Comments from family members who helped. People saying she’s to attached and I need to fix that. Or she is to spoiled and that’s why she acts the way she does. Fights with...

Newborn randomly gags/chokes during and after feeds — normal

My baby is turning 6 weeks old, and since around 2 weeks, I've noticed she randomly gags or chokes — sometimes while feeding and sometimes even hours after feeding. I mostly breastfeed her. When she gags, I usually pick her up and pat her back, and she seems okay afterward. Once she even spat up after I did this. ...

How many night feeds?

Hi mums, how many night feeds are you doing? My baby is 12 weeks and goes to bed around 9ish, he usually wakes around 12/1 and if I give him the dummy he’ll sleep for another hour before wanting a feed - is that ok?

Sleep regression with TWINS.

I'm losing my mind. I already never get enough sleep. All they do is scream and scream and scream. When they finally stop all they are doing is recharging their energy to continue to scream. Yes they are fed, yes they are changed, yes their room is a good temperature, no they are not sick and have any fevers. Just ...

Is it normal for almost five year old to be so emotional?

I feel like my 5 year old is so emotional. It feels like everything sets off a temper tantrum where he just yells at the top of his lungs. Is anybody else's kid like this?

Please give me your thoughts

My son is 2 years old and I’m really worried about if this is normal or should I be concerned. He has 42 words he can say but they all are not used everyday. 🥺
