BO

Hello! My son is 4 months old and has a really intense smell of BO under his armpits. He has a bath every day - but it still comes back!! Is this normal?

Healing advice

Hi everyone!

I had my first baby 8 days ago and unfortunately the birth didn’t quite go to plan, needing suction and an episiotomy.

I’ve been in so much pain and upon getting my stitches checked have found that the wound has opened and cannot be re-stitched due to risk of infection.

Has anyone experienced this? I’m looking for some advice on how long I can expect to be in this pain as something to work towards 🤞🏼

Milk at 1

Hi my baby is 1 tomorrow and I’ve just had my HV appointment who basically said she doesn’t need milk anymore now not even cows milk but obviously if she can’t drop it then swap it for cows milk.

How many bottles are your 12 months having? And also what bottle do you put it in?

We’ve still got about half a tub of formula so I’m going to use that first anyways.

Ferber sleep training 6.5 month old

Hi everyone! My LO is 6.5 months old. Sleeps from 7pm-7am and is currently on 2/3 naps a day. He can’t be put down without rocking and patting each time, so I was considering this method. I just wanted a little insight on this method!

Sex before 6 weeks postpartum

Genuinely.. has anybody had sex before 6 weeks postpartum? I really really wanted to wait but my sex drive has been to the fricken moon and I caved in a few days ago and for some reason I feel really guilty about it 😔 I’m 4 weeks postpartum, had a vaginal delivery with no tears or stitches. And I completely stopped bleeding a few days before I had sex. Is there even a point in waiting an extra 2 weeks since the deed is done or..? 😭

Pressured into breastfeeding?

Just had my 32 week midwife appointment I explained my reasons for not wanting to breastfeed and it almost felt like she wouldn’t take not for an answer. She was trying to scare me telling me all these negatives about formula feeding. Has anyone else had this happen to them? It filled me with so much anxiety!
