Is his stomach normal?
My little boy is 2.5 weeks old. His stomach is very “balloon” looking and skin looks stretched.. Can anyone tell me if they think it looks normal or needs looking at? He’s solely breastfed but does sick up quite a bit…
Thanks (one anxious tired mum 🙁)

That looks very bloated!
Is he peeing and pooping normally?
Does he seem depressed? I personally would probably have it looked at..
How are this nappies?
Is he passing wind and burping?
I would recommend getting it looked at, if not for your own peace of mind also but he does look gass filled
I wouldn't wait to see a GP about this either just take him up to your nearest kids ED
He’s peeing and pooping (lots!) and I try to burp him after every feed.
Yesterday he looked very uncomfortable and had some wind. Today he’s not looked as uncomfortable.
Reckon I could wait till the morning? I have a 2 year old that would have to come too you see and she’s very tired now 🙁
Did he just eat when you took the photo/when you notice it?
My eldest used to look like that all the time, turns out he had a dairy intolerance! I didn’t know at the time but he got diagnosed with CMPA at 6 months and then we slowly reintroduced dairy at 2 and now it’s just a milk intolerance rather than a whole allergy.
But if you think something is wrong push and push doctors untill your baby is settled we kept being told it was colic

Signs of autism 2 year old
My child had just turned 2 recently and we're approaching next health review and I am unsure of certain behaviour that he's showing sometimes.
He's speaking walking etc no concerns here however not always he's reacting to his name, not always he's pointing, sometimes walking on tip toes, sometimes flapping his hands.
Online says that those are normal signs and nothing to be concerned until they're 3.
What are your experience in that matter should i be worried?
He's with me at home no nursery however everyday we're at playgroups.

Nappy sizes
Unsure what to do for nappy sizes. My bubba is currently in size 4 nutmeg and rascals but they're both tight and not fitting around her hips very well. She's also 8.5kg weighed last week.
Any ideas on what we should do?

Breast pumps
Can anyone recommend ones that have worked really well for them and why

Hey mamas,
I’m reaching out here because this community always feels like a safe space. Lately, I’ve been struggling a lot more than usual with anxiety and depression, and it’s been feeling pretty heavy like laying on the floor sobbing for hours heavy. I was doing okay for a few weeks and then it started up again. I feel like I’m failing my son and now showing up for him because I’m always so sad or anxious
My doctor and I have been talking about options, and Sertraline (Zoloft) came up as a potential next step. Before making a decision, I wanted to ask if anyone here has been prescribed Sertraline? I’d love to hear what your experience was like—especially around how it made you feel starting out, how long it took to notice a difference, or any tips you wish you knew beforehand.
Sending love to anyone else who might be in the thick of it right now, too. Thanks so much in advance for sharing your stories! xx

Cluster feeding
My baby is currently 3 weeks old and he is almost all day and night on my breast. Sometimes he feeds for an hour and 10 minutes later he wants more. He is gaining weight properly. Breast is the only way to make him calm. I am very tired. Does anyone have a similar experience?
