April 2024 Babies 🇬🇧

Hi, does anyone know a good sectioned plate that doesn't stain from tomatoy/orange types of food please? Preferably one that has a suction bottom.

Hi everyone, I’m hoping to get a bit of advice or hear from other mums who may have been through something similar 🤍

My daughter is currently under a hospital specialist for being underweight, and today we saw a new (first-year) doctor. He didn’t seem very confident, which already made me feel a bit uneasy.

During the appointment, he said she has gained some weight, which is great — but I brought up a concern I’ve had for a while about possible diabetes, as she has quite a few symptoms and we have a strong family history of it.

They did a blood sugar test, and her level came back at 7.3 after not eating for around 3 hours. The diabetic nurse’s reaction made me feel like that was high, so I asked if it was normal. The doctor said yes, it was normal — but the nurse then said no, it was high. The doctor then repeated that it was normal and said we were there about her weight, not that.

I’ve come away feeling really unsettled and honestly a bit dismissed. Now I feel like I’ve got a new worry on my mind, and I’m not sure what to think or do next (I have already contacted our GP for a follow-up).

Has anyone experienced anything similar with their child? Or had slightly raised blood sugars and what happened next? I’d really appreciate any advice or reassurance ❤️

My little one still has his baby bottle for cows milk 2 times a day (one in morning and one in evening). I’m really keen on moving him away from the baby bottle, but he doesn’t like his milk in a sippy cup. He loves his milk so I don’t want to take that away from him. Any recommendations for transition bottles?

Any recommendations for a good balance bike for an almost 2 year old? x

I honestly don’t know how you are managing but it’s v inspiring!

My OBGYN recently asked me if I am planning a second one and this hit me hard!
