My 6 week old had it severe from her milk allergy and when she was in hospital the consultant prescribed her T-gel. I was worried as the box says do not use under the age of 12 years but he assured me she will be fine and she is 🙏🏽🙏🏽 it’s definitely helping and it looks so much better.

My son had it bad and his hair would come out with it all the time, we ended up taking him to the drs and they prescribed a treatment shampoo (we had tried all the treatment stuff over the counter, tgel and oils nothing worked) the shampoo they gave us worked great and within 2/3 months and a little more hair loss as I brushed it out, it cleared and he has been cleared since

I’m so scared of her losing her hair as she’s got such long pretty blonde hair 😭 seeing the bald patches crop up cause she has to wear her hair up for school and so many clips as she’s got so much baby hair is heart breaking

I can imagine, jsut from that picture you can see how beautiful her hair must be, my boy has thick hair we had to bring ourselves to think it’s better now then in a few years when they’re more aware. It wasn’t loads that was lost with the treatment

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😢💗

Big nursing bras!

I’m looking for recommendations for good nursing bras for bigger breasted ladies!

I’m currently in a 38H which seems to be the biggest size done at M&S (UK based mama here) and it’s snug and not as supportive as I’d like. When I look online, they mainly seem to be sized S, M, L, XL etc rather than bra sizes.

Any recommendations please?

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 😂
