Gp appointment

Hi all! I had a gp appointment with my 10 day newborn and got surprised that they didn’t prioritise him above other adult gp slot appointments. Do newborns don’t pass in front of the queue at nhs for gp appointment slots?

Gro egg

So ofc I was doomscrolling instead of sleeping, did you know you can dim your tommee tippee gro egg?! 🤣

I honestly can’t even with not knowing this 🤣 I’ve really struggled to sleep with it illuminating the entire bedroom and now it’s dimmed down I’m finding it strange 🫠

Please don’t think I’m crazy

Not technically a poll but I need answers and this is the biggest group. My friend and I are debating back and forth about our babies’ ages. My daughter was born January 12th. Today is exactly 24 weeks. Which would be the equivalent to 6 months. But she said no. June 12th is 5 months. January 12th to June 12th. Her baby was born May 28th. She said she’s a month old yesterday. I said no.. she’s a month and 4 days old. Now I feel like we don’t even know how old our fricken kids are lmfao. Someone explain how they do this?

Milton cold water sterilisation

I’m currently on holiday and using Milton cold water tablets to sterilise. How do I dry the bottles as I need to take some of the bottles out of the bucket to make room for my rapid cools. If I shake the bottles and they’re still a bit damp when putting together won’t that be an area of bacteria or mould to grow?

I have a bad feeling but I don't know what will happen.

My son is gonna be 3 soon. He is at his dads house at the moment. He has autism. When I called his dad to check on everything his dad seemed upset. His dad ignored me for almost a day until he finally responded. I have a bad feeling about something. Idk... i need advice. Idk if its just my anxiety or my mama instict kicking in or what.

Won’t sleep, help😭

My usually good sleeper has woken up every night multiple times over the last week from 1/2am and there is nothing settling him😭 He wakes up crying so we go down, but he’s fine and lies there with his eyes open. Soon as we leave the room he’s hysterical again. There is literally nothing we do that works to get him back to sleep. Both my husband and I are shattered. He got HFM end of last week and it’s completely messed everything up. He’d finally made really good progress with his nursery settling last week and I just know this will have set him backwards as he doesn’t want a dummy for comfort and is fighting any sort of sleep. At our wits end now and don’t know what to do as he’s never done this before. I’m wondering if I need to keep him off nursery while he is so unsettled and is likely to struggle sleeping while there. My alarm goes off in less than 2hrs for work and he still hasn’t gone back to sleep😫😭

My baby isn't crawling yet

My baby is 9 months old, will be 10 months on the 1st of July and still isn't crawling. I know so many people say (including myself) that they will do it in their own time and every baby is different but I'm starting to get that itch you know, lol.

He can push up on his hands but his legs will stay down, or he will push up on his knees and have his head and arms down but has never put it altogether. He hates it when I help him by puahing him onto his knees while he is pushing himself up on his hands and will drop down.

I'm needing some advice on what you guys have done to help your baby start pushing up into the crawling position.
