Please help!!

My baby (4 months) hasn’t pee’d in 10 and a half hours, she has been asleep from 10pm last night and just woke up and her nappy is completely dry, she has never done this before and has been a little bit more whingey / not completely herself for the past couple of days - but has been having her milk with no problems (she is bottle fed)
What should I do?! I’m really worried incase she is dehydrated, anyone else had this? (Pic so my post doesn’t get lost)

It happened to my baby aswell, I have asked my health visitor about it, and she said that as long as the baby has between 5-6 wet nappies, a day, it shouldn't be a problem. But I got worried this morning as he went for 11 hours not having a wet nappy. But once he woke up, he passed urine. Try putting a wet wipe on his tummy and see if it does the trick.

My baby used to do this all the time. As long as they pee during the day it's fine. Sometimes they just don't need it

Take her to get checked out, my baby was weeing but alot less and was taking her milk but not all of it and was just generally groggy but still happy if that makes sense. Turns out she had a water infection and needed antibiotics through a drip so we had to stay in hospital, does she have a slight temp or anything?

I have found now that my baby's Nappy isn't as full of a morning and she sleeps 12hrs used to be bursting but after her morning feed she wees alot, my partner thinks she's becoming aware of wet Nappies through the night and might be holding it. I don't think they are capable of that yet but it could be to do with her being asleep, has she peed much since she's been awake?

Have you tried using a wipe on their nappy line? Sometimes that helps them pee.

I had this when my daughter was born she wouldn’t wee they put cotton balls down there to see if she was in case it wasn’t showing up on the nappy . Finally she eventually did wee as normal . Get her checked see what they say put ur mind at rest

I’d ring your GP or 111 better to get them checked could be a urine infection could be nothing but better to be safe than sorry. Does he have a temp?

Vanilla extract

Has anyone used alcohol free vanilla in their babies formal to help them drink?
I’m 100% sure my baby refuses her bottles as she doesn’t like the taste of it!

Just anxious to try it, don’t want her to get used to it and then refuse bottles again after two weeks of using (correct me if I’m wrong but I’ve read you use it for 2 weeks max)

TIA 🙂

Car seat crying

My 6 month old PANICS the second I put him in a car seat and screams, cries, chokes and recently even projectile vomited on a 14 minute drive. It’s gotten to the point I don’t even bring him out unless it’s to a doctors appointment. I’m a stay at home mom with no family in my state and it has been very isolating. We’ve tried 3 different car seats with no improvement. Has anyone had a baby who hated the car seat? Any advice? This started at 3 months. I will add it does seem worse when he’s tired. He does cry on every trip though. He only contact naps and co sleeps so he reaches for me and will not sleep in the car seat.

Sex post C section

Hi ladies I’m 4 weeks 5 days postpartum and I had a C section. I’m not bleeding properly anymore just some brownish discharge stuff that starts on and off. I’d like to do the deed with my partner; is it okay to do so or shall I wait the full 6 weeks. I feel up for it but also worried because the advice is 6-8 weeks.

When did you circumcise your baby?
If you DID NOT or DO NOT have a circumcised son DO NOT comment this post is not for you!

Did you wait a certain amount of time or have it done immediately?
Again respectfully, this is only for the parents who choose to do so.
opinions about how not necessary it is will not be appropriate for this post. Thank you in advance. 🩵
