Carobel
Hi guys- I’m just wondering where I pick up some carobel milk thickener? The hospital has advised I start giving my baby it but I can’t seem to find where to purchase it? Can I get it on prescription from the doctors?

You can buy in pharmacies but not all of them have it. We get ours in Tesco pharmacy. Some people do seem to get it on prescription but our GP told us they wouldn’t prescribe it
None of my pharmacies seem to have it in stock so I’m stuck??! :(
You can but my doctors are buggers for it! I buy it from online pharmacy’s anywhere from £8-12 a box can also do monthly subscription it’s impossible to find in store unless you get lucky I’ve only been able to find it in 1 pharmacy on shelf and a couple by asking at the desk!
You can buy it on Amazon if your pharmacies dont have it. My daughter is prescribed it through GP. Id recommend getting a prescription and asking for more than one box x
You can order it off Amazon😊
We got it prescribed by the doctors xxx

Nighttime nappies
Hi all, does anyone have recommendations for a good nappy for nights? 3 month old is sleeping in good stretches but nappies can’t keep up. Tried Aldi and pampers and now on Sainsbury’s and they are great in day but not at night?! Thanks so much

How much sex a month?
How many times a month in the first year postpartum do you and your husband have sex? (Trying to figure out what the normal range is for partners with a baby!)

Booking 16 week jabs
I had to cancel our 16 week jabs due to illness and my gp keeps telling me that inhealth will be back in contact to rebook them. It’s now been 4 weeks and still nothing.. anyone have any knowledge here?

Schedule/Routine
My LO is 11 weeks and I’m trying to start building a routine, as I’ve noticed her sleep varies. The last couple of days have been really difficult to get her to nap and she’s clearly tired but fights it. I’m wondering if I had more structure in our day, if it would help. She also doesn’t sleep through the night yet. Any recommendations or methods that worked for people? Or is this all normal and I just need to wait it out?

Breastfeeding
Does it actually get easier?
Two weeks postpartum and I’m exhausted. Baby is awake every 1-2 hours feeding and is EBF. I can’t sleep during day as my toddler doesn’t nap and so I feel like I’m running on fumes.
Do you get longer stretches when baby is breastfed? I’ve seen some women say they haven’t slept in years for more than two hours due to breastfeeding!

Crying before every nap
My three month old cries before every nap. He’s fine in the night when fed to sleep, but before every single day nap there is 5-25 minutes of crying. We follow wake windows as best we can but it doesn’t seem to matter whether he’s awake one hour or three hours!
Did anyone else have this, and has come out the other side?
