Should I be concerned?

My little one is 6 weeks old and the last couple of days she has started to spit up more we haven’t changed her formula or the amount we are giving her. I’ve just changed her nappy and her bowel movement is loose but it’s the first one she has had. Do you think it’s something to be concerned about or just cause she is still small and sensitive to things?

My baby sometimes has loose bowels and usually he goes once a day but if he’s been longer than usual the loose bowels come, if that makes sense, almost like a clear out. Spit up is normal too and can be on and off with formula, I find it seems to make babies more phlegmy and more sicky because of that. My baby spits up a lot and I find it’s after he’s been abit more phlemy because of his formula. I don’t know if this is helpful and I know all babies are different xx

I'm going through this right now my EBF 6 weeks old, maybe it's just a phase as their digestive system develops or something, after every feed he is throwing up but seems content otherwise and has done MASSIVE poops today after not much for a day or two. Started a few days ago, I'm not worried though but trust your instinct if you think something is wrong x

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?

When do things get easier?

As we entered the 9-12 month stage, my son started crawling and pulling himself up. He also became more clingy and does not play alone, still doesnt sleep through the night, and this week has been sick (so EVERYTHING amplified). I am tired and overwhelmed. Please lie and tell me things get better. 🥺

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?

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 🤣
