“Worms” in baby poop

You guys… no one freaking told me EVER that after eating bananas, baby will poop out little tiny threads that look like worms. So I wanted to come on here and tell YOU that it’s not worms, don’t freak out and break out in sweat and hives like I did and run around like a chicken with its head cut off not knowing what to do next. When you feed a baby banana, don’t even look at it’s poop. The end. Thanks for watching. Buhbye now.

Could be thread worms? Iv never ever noticed that in my kids poop but worms are a real thing and extremely easy to spread maybe keep an eye on it x

😬😬😬 great now I’m paranoid again

Ok I just looked up thread worms and they’re white. These are black. And he did just eat banana last night.

Never heard of that and my daughter eats a lot of bananas

This is common after bananas and no need to be worried. Bananas are very fiber-us and stringy

Lollll this gave me flashbacks to when I went through this w my baby I was CRIIIEENNNNN 😭😭😂😂😂😂😂 good times lol

🤣🤣🤣😭😭 glad I’m not the only one 😩😭🤣 I FREAKED tf out, literally ran side to side with the open diaper in my hand trying to figure out if I should rush him to the hospital or call my husband first 😭

Same thing happened to me. Freaked out but it also looked awful so maybe I won’t give banana now 😂😂

Yeah no more bananas till he’s 5 🤣

Yall I called her father when I saw that and I was crying and freaking out but he had no idea what to say so I took her to the doctors immediately and the doctor told me it was from the bananas

Haha! Can't say I've noticed them in her poop but I know exactly what you're on about. You can see the same thing in banana bread or muffins once they're cooled down and they've oxidised.

Leaky nappy help

What nappies are you using to stop leaks?? We use pampers ultra dry size 5, and for the past few nights he has lashed through and we’ve had to completely change him during the night. Last night he leashed through twice!! He sleeps on his front and stays leaks through at the top of his leg where the tabs connect. Didn’t know whether to size up, he has a bit of a belly on him but he’s smack in middle of weight guidance so shouldn’t need too

My little one is struggling with sleep

Hey! I'm in need of some advice please girls! My little boy is 20 months turns 21 months in 2 half weeks. He use to sleep through the night now he is waking up every single night in the early morning, I've had to transition him to a toodler bed as he kept climbing out his cot. Just need some advice on what I can do to help him get back in to a sleep pattern?

6 month old autistism

My 6 month old makes no eye contact with me and doesn’t respond when I call him. Can this just be a phase or personality trait as apposed to autism

4 month bed time

What time do you put your babies to bed?
What time do you start your 'routine?'
My LO currently goes to bed around 10.30pm, and I know i need to start bringing it forward. Everytime ive tried, it takes longer for my LO to settle.
We are exclusively breastfeeding. Any advice Mamas?

New born

Finally had my baby girl via C-section on the 18th, everything has been so far. But I’ve noticed she’s very fussy and cries a lot. I’ve been trying to exclusively breastfeed. The lactation consultant at the hospital said I did look like I’m making enough milk for her. She was latching on good at the hospital and now here at home, she doesn’t seem to want to latch at all. She’s been crying a lot and very fussy. I’m just wondering is she’s colic or like maybe she just doesn’t want the breast anymore?

5.30am wakeups 😫😴

My 15 week old has started waking up about 5.30am and is really hard to settle back down - it’s like he thinks it’s time to wake up for the day. He used to go to bed at 9pm and was up at 8am but now he goes to bed between 7.30-8pm as he’s knackered by then but waking up at 5.30am😴. Any advice to get him to sleep a little longer in the morning?! Even an extra hour would be lovely 🤣
