Yall I have to share in case anyone else is struggling with this.. my daughter’s poor face was getting worse by the day with baby acne and dry patches. I tried aquaphor, Vaseline, breast milk, dove sensitive lotion- looked worse not better. One night after using Tubby Todd colloidal oatmeal ointment and we noticed immediate improvement. This is now, about 5 days after we started using it. It is expensive, but I’m so glad we tried it!

Shea butter lotion

That’s what we use on our baby girl. Look at that pretty hair ☺️

How long did you rest after a straight forward vaginal birth?
(Asking for this birth as I know c-section/complications require a different level of recovery).
I’m interested to know how quick you returned to household chores and general ‘mumming’ following birth of baby.
I love the idea of the 5-5-5 (5 days in bed, 5 days on the bed, 5 days around the bed) for rest, but I’m curious to know if anyone actually stuck to this or something similar, or if guilt got in the way!

When did your babies become happier ( if they were a fussy baby).
My baby just seems unhappy a lot of the time, if he’s not asleep or feeding he’s usually fussy and crying.
He has moments where he’s calm and engaging and it’s lovely but mainly he does just seem unhappy.
Does it get better? He’s 9 weeks old.

My 5 week old seems so unhappy. I don’t understand whats wrong. She hates being put down. She sleeps fine for the first half of the night, after her night feed she spends the next 3 hours grunting and squirming. She will have a bottle then squirms and cries after it, but not always. I feel like i’m failing her.

My 14-month-old baby is not talking yet and hasn't said their first single word. However, they are babbling, pointing, waving, following instructions, and know a few baby signs.
My husband says it's normal since every child develops at their own pace, but my mother says he is late as he should have said a few words by now.
I've been paying close attention to them, and they have reached all other milestones. I don't know whether I should be concerned or just keep observing for now. Has anyone else been through this?
