I am curious the poll results. I have thought about doing it my myself first but currently pregnant.

No but I do work in the holistic wellness field and have some contacts that do this so I’m keeping an eye on it. My son wouldn’t sit still enough for any treatment that I’ve seen at the moment though.

Is this a legit question or a joke? 😅

If it’s real… you need to have reason to believe a child has worms. Usually a stool sample to the drs for analysis and on confirmation medicine is prescribed!

Help settle this not serious debate between my husband and me

This is for kids old enough to play in the bath.
Do you wash your kids first then fill up the bath so they can play?
OR
Do you fill up the bath, let them play then drain and wash?

:/

I just wanted to come on here real quick to show something I wrote. Since my son was born I had been struggling with maintaining a friendship with someone I considered my bestfriend. I wasn’t the one struggling though, she was. When my son was born I stopped hearing from her, even after during my pregnancy she swore she would be here for me and would be my sons “fav auntie”… Well he is almost 9 months old and the only time I have been asked to hangout is when she needed a pregnancy test and she knew I had extra. Me having a child suddenly made my bestfriend lose interest in the friendship. I’ve expressed to her so many times how I felt and i guess it just doesnt matter because to her I’m no longer friend material because i am a mom. So i wrote this as my final cry for help from her and she said absolutely nothing to it. That ultimately made me cut her off completely.

Feeling like utter crap

When will this end? I feel terrible. Overweight, biggest I've ever been in my life, unsexy, barely get a chance to shower most days, make up is non existent, hair is suffering. Clothes awful. Mood low majority of the time what I do is just a distraction for how awful I feel inside. I am deeply grateful for my children, but I just can't seem to get it together energy wise. My youngest is 5 months.

Help, am I in the wrong?

So tomorrow is due to be 26 degrees and my partner wants us to take our son to a park in Central London (over an hour away) probably around 2pm. I know 26 degrees isn't heatwave temperature but surely it doesn't make sense to head out in the afternoon to the park with a 1 year old rather than going earlier when it's not as hot?

Please tell me if I'm overreacting because I can be abit OTT with things like this, and protecting my son from feeling unwell and things like that, but I don't see how this makes sense lol

Also, bear in mind that my son is now on 1 nap for between 2 and 3 hours a day, usually around midday or just before

Crying in car

Hi all! My LO is 9 weeks and every single time we get into the car she cries uncontrollably, she only cries like that in the car never at home! I’ve put her completely asleep, just after feeding with dummy, with something that smells like me, nothing helps!! I don’t know what else to try! Any ideas?

NAPS!

My LO is 7mo today i read everywhere that she should be on 3 naps a day at this age but shes still on 4! I tried a 3 nap day last week and she was massively overtired and a nightmare come bed time. Yet on 4 naps she goes to bed a dream! I know they say every baby's different but I dont know what to do!
