My first baby was like this and he grew into a car sick toddler. We only drove around nap time and minimised car journeys wherever we could. He eventually grew out of it x

My baby is the exact same! I play ABC on YouTube whilst driving orrr try put him to sleep and keep white noise on for his transfer to his car seat and on the journey

We now only do long (30min-1hr) journeys around his nap time. We time it to when he's super sleepy and then we put him in the car seat. He might cry for 2-3 mins but then sleep takes over x
I have a 5 month old, he’s keeps weeing through his nappy especially of a night! Doesn’t happen all the time, but when it does it’s strangely on his back left. Family have said it could be from his Willy being up when putting the nappy on but I make sure to check this everytime. Any advice please 🩵

I hope someone can help me. I am 5 and a half months postpartum. I had a C section. I super clingy baby so I haven’t been able to be very active. I now struggle when lying down. I am in so much pain when turning around. My hips hurt a lot!! When I get up in the middle of the night it takes me some time to walk comfortably. Please tell me someone has been through similar to this and can help me out. My hips, lower back and thighs.

What time are you setting your 4–5-month old’s bedtime? My LO likes to be up at 5:30 AM, and with daylight saving time coming up, I’m wondering if I’m putting him to bed too late and if that’s affecting how late he sleeps.. 🤔

Anyone noticed a really strong smell of chlorine on bottles after using Milton sterilising tablets? We’re away at the moment and our baby’s bottles stink of it despite the correct amounts being used and them being rinsed. Bit worried they might be able to taste it too. Is this normal?

The uk guide lines say to sterilise up until 12 months, which I find a bit excessive. But in America they say up until 3 months?
