Is she on breastmilk or formula?

Only breastmilk 🥺

try bicycle kicks, massaging her tummy and a warm bath if that doesn’t work then the last resort would be like a rectal temperature, but breast-fed babies can go a week without pooping

thank you so much 🙏 I will do the bicycle and shower I hope it works for her

it’s good to know that it can happen n breastfeeding baby’s . Thank you I will get the probiotic tomorrow

Try Frida windy passers

Give her a small amount of prune juice

Our pediatrician recommended us to give our daughter a little bit of apple juice, usually 2oz apple juice and 1 oz water works! We also use a probiotic!

Our pediatrician said you can start solids between 4-6 months. My baby girl is 5 months and when this happened, I gave her like two little spoons of pear puree and she pooped an hour later. ❤️

I did just now 🤞🏼

I have to try it with my baby girl took her to the clinic today but they didn’t give any medicine

my pediatrician told me that too but I’m scared because my baby was born at 34 weeks 🥺

I totally get it! Mine was born at 37 and had some NICU time. She’s not fully ready for all that but I was like I’ll do it just this once haha good luck, mama!

Banana puree seems to always make my baby poop! And the Bio Gaia with Vitamin D drops we use daily and keep her pretty regular.

Help! First time mum -

I have a 4 month old and now all of a sudden when he’s been asleep for 1hr30/2hrs he will wake up screaming (high pitched) I’ve tried winding him sometimes that helps, I’ve tried bicycle legs & bringing his knees up but that doesn’t seem to help but he brings his knees up himself sometimes but nothing happens. I’ve noticed since the 4 month mark he has started to struggle passing wind downwards! Any tips?

Bath Time

Help! My baby is 3 and a half weeks old. Every bath she goes in quite happy but will only stay like this for a very few mins, if I try to clean her or move her we have tears and after a few mins the same. It's like she is scared. Our current baby bath is quite big should I try a different one? Looking for any suggestions as want her to enjoy bath time not be upset and I'm scared I'm going to make her hate it😢💗

Don’t want to leave my first born😭😭😭

Anyone else extremely sad and anxious to leave their first born😭

He’s 2 and we have never not put him to bed or be here for when he wakes up😭

I’m so sad and anxious about leaving him

Crying during feeding

Hey mams! My girl is 6 weeks on Monday and is having so much trouble with feeding. It doesn’t happen every feed but more often than not she will start a bottle and just start crying as if she’s in pain and she can’t take the milk. I think it’s trapped wind but I genuinely don’t know what to do it’s so pitiful to see her not be able to feed! She’s formula fed and on HiPP Organic.
Anyone else been in this position? I’m pretty sure it’s just a bit of trapped wind that she needs to fart out but can’t! If anyone has any advice I’d be very grateful as I think I may need to tape my eyelids open soon 😂

Sleeping

Hi all!
I need some advice my son is 5 months on Tuesday at what age do they sleep in their cot? As he’s still in his bassinet in our bedroom any advice would be fab thank you🫶🏼🫶🏼

No more naps! 10 month old

For a few days now my 10m old has fought her 2 daily naps. Normally her wake windows were 3-4 hours and she is now eventually napping after a 6 hour wake window. Today was only one nap, she skipped the second one. Used to nap like clockwork so I’m wondering if anyone else is experiencing this? Also very unsettled most nights and doesn’t sleep well at all
