If you are pregnant and already have kid(s)

What is one thing you are hoping this baby will do that their elder sibling(s) didn’t ? My 2.5 yr old has since birth screemed in the car seat and the pram continually so much so I was thinking he must have motion sickness or something ! He would hardly ever nap and if he did it would be in his bed. This time round I’m hoping baby will nap well and in the buggy so we can enjoy full days out when the weather is good.

Breastfed babies who sleep through the night… do you wake up to pump?

My EBF 3 month old has been sleeping through the night from 7 pm - 5:30 am. I’m worried about my supply dropping… should I be waking up to pump at night, or just feeding more often throughout the day to keep my production up?

Toddler starting to hit and pinch

Ok so my toddler is starting to hit and pinch and then he only bites us when he’s teething but sometimes it’s aggressive and won’t let go. Does anyone else go thru this and what did you do because we’ve tried different things and nothing helps.

9 month old sleep habit

Hi everyone, I wondered if anyone could help my almost 9 month old has suddenly decided she doesn’t want to sleep in her cot only on me all night. My back is killing me as a result and I don’t know how to get her out of this habit and back into her cot which she used to be fine with. Everytime I put her down she wakes up☹️

Colic, reflux, upset tummy? HELP

My now 5 week old daughter has been spitting up milk since the beginning. I breastfeed throughout the day and night and give one bottle (Hipp organic) before the night at around 10.30pm

She does plenty of wet nappies and was back at her birth weight within the first 2 weeks, and has continued to gained weight, so I have no worries from that aspect, but I still have a week to go until her 6 week appointment and want to understand is this reflux, colic or something she is suffering with?

Her tummy goes hard and I can tell she is uncomfortable especially between 6pm and midnight. I googled “techniques for babies with colic” and used the baby massage techniques on her yesterday and she was able to poo 3 times within the next hour (she hadnt done it that day or the day before).

I have been reading some posts here saying an osteopath could help, so called up the osteopath I used to use for my son (he didn’t have these issues and it was more for a regular check up (first time mum just doing anything and everything)), but her next availability is in July. Would an osteopath really be able to help?

How do I know what’s up with her and what methods should I use to help her?
