My doctor recommended 1 oz water and 1 oz white grape, prune or pear juice. Works like a charm for us!

I use the little consipation drops like “mommy’s bliss”

How old is your baby? If they're on solids try feeding pear it makes them poop! It sure made my boy poop like a horse 🐴. And have you tried bicycle legs? It usually gets things moving. Also try putting in a cute outfit in their car seat that typically has a blow out written all over it. And are they breastfeed because my lactation consult said that breastfeed babies will get to a point where sometimes they will do this thing where they will only poop once a week.

My ped had me used pedia lax it worked within minutes

the cute outfit 🤣

my dr said like half teaspoon of dark korn syrup (karro kind) and i did it when she didn’t poop in 4 days and she pooped the next day

You can do apple juice!

it works every time I'll tell my husband I'm worried about little man not pooping put him a cute outfit and put him in the care and voila blowout!

A lot of leg and hip movements, and with my LO if I keep him upright (or at least angled upright) he’ll get it out!

LO is 5 months old. But thanks for the advices guys! She went poo after her mid day feed 🎉🎉
Who would have thought i would be happy to find out about poo! I guess thats motherhood for me now

Sleeping bag

8 week old in sleeping bag for first time as big enough! Do you feed your child in the night whilst in the sleeping bag or taken them out, feed then transfer back to sleeping bag before putting down?

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

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 🤣
