My son had colic for the first 3-4 months. I don't think I burped all the gas out since he was hard to burp. The windi from frida baby (lots of petrolum jelly) helped a lot! And the belly warmer band from frida baby.

Are you breast or bottle feeding?

Go to a baby chiropractor! Colic is usually a symptom, not a diagnosis. They can help a lot

Infacol drops and chiropractor helped us, also Google the colic hold and yes they may scream for awhile but it helps them get the gas out and they relax into it after a while

Blood in baby’s poo

Ladies, I’ve just changed my baby and noticed some blood on his poo and on the diaper. The poo was quite soft, not pebbly and he wasnt straining or anything like that. Anyone had anything like this before? What is it? Shall i call the GP?

Help

Hi mamas! Has anyone dealt with their baby’s hair clumping at the back of their head? I tried baby oil to loosen it but no luck so far. Any advice?

Struggling

My baby’s 5 weeks old and I am really struggling. I knew it would be hard but it’s so much harder in reality. She won’t be put down without waking up after 5 minutes. Won’t be put down at night either. I can’t do anything without doing it one handed holding her. Every night she spends hours being stressed and crying and really difficult to console, fighting sleep and nothing I do seems to help her for more than 30 seconds. I’m just putting this out there wondering if others are going through the same. It’s a lot.

Naps etc

Hi
I have 15 week old little girl and I was just wanting advice of what other people
Do about naps in the day, she is a contact Napper, is anyone else’s baby like this or do they let you put them down, or do people do naps in the next to me with a camera etc?

Just wanting to know other people in my situations routine of how many naps do they have a day, last nap time and night time routine? We was getting somewhere with sleep, up to 5 hour stretches but over last week we have gone back to 3 hourly feeds on the dot, any advice will help!

Thanks

Wake windows

My 12 week old can just about do 60mins. I've tried extending it but she gets overtired really quickly.

What's everyone else's wake windows and how many hours are your babies napping?

Is it really necessary to change the nipple flow?

Hi moms ! Is it really necessary to change the flow of the nipples ? Or I can just stay with the same one ? Also, is okay that I use the same bottles and nipples for my next baby?
