Has anyone used them and had any good experiences?

Infacol is really good! My little one used to cry for ages in the evenings due to trapped gas, and infacol really helped

Used infacol from day 6, still using at week 20, use for every feed and no more issues with wind (NICU baby and nurse gave me some friendly advice and told me to get it, his wind was so bad!)

Yes! We have, it's been an absolute game changer! My son was so gassy and incredibly difficult to wind. We still use it daily and he loves the taste.

Used both but important to note that they both do different things. Infacol brings the gas bubbles to the surface to burp easier. Colief contains lactase to help baby digest lactose from milk easier.

Colief did nothing for my son as he had no issues digesting lactose. However he did struggle to bring burps up.

We’ve weaned him off it now though as he’s bringing his burps up on his own mostly! He’s 4.5 months now.

I prefer gripe water. It’s been a life saver.

normal or infected?

5 weeks post c section , i went at the beginning of the week as my wound had opened completely different area to what’s leaking. was told it didn’t look infected. anyone know if this is normal coming off it, it’s only a little amount at a time

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Baby names

My daughter‘s name is valentýna and I’m struggling to find other nice girl and boy names beginning with V I’ve got a few and I’ve got loads that aren’t beginning with V, but I feel like I wanna go for all vs and I also love girl and boys names that match so because my daughter’s name is valentýna I would love to call my son Valentino my husband does not agree 😃

Induction or c section?

As a last resort, would you rather be induced or have a planned c section?

Really not liking the thought of being induced from people’s experiences I’ve read!

I am so done with pregnancy !

Everything i do hurt . I sit down / i stand up / i walk / i lie down. I am in pain ! I am tired ! His mouvement hurt down there like electricity chock ! My back is on fire ! If i walk more then 5 minutes i feel like i am going to die ( low ferritine) the acid reflux is crazy . I mean i can’t and don’t wanna do this no more . Only 31 weeks !

Almost 37 weeks + told to do another growth scan

I just had my second to last doctor’s appointment this morning, and my OB told me she wants me to do another growth scan because my belly is measuring small. She says it’s probably just because I’m a smaller woman, but they like to be safe. It’s hard to hear though, since I just did one a couple months ago.

I did this with my firstborn around this time of pregnancy, so I do think I just carry smaller (even though I don’t feel like I look “small” at all). My first baby was 6lbs 15oz when she was born at 41 weeks + 2 days. I’m having this baby at 39 weeks on April 7. I hope she’s still at least 6lbs.

Anyone have any stories similar to this?
