She’s growing so fast I can’t 😭

Hi everyone! My little girl was born August 15th, i’m just wondering what everyone’s planning for their little one’s first birthday! We would love to do a garden party but our garden is just far too small so that’s out of the question! We were also looking at hiring a village hall but we don’t really have many chil...

How are our babies 6 months old already 😭😭😭💙

My daughter and sister are born on the same day Will I be the ahole if for my daughters first birthday i make it all about her in the day just getting my sister a present because my sister can celebrate I'm the evening

Do you need ideas? Or have some?? Here are a few things on my list. 1) water play table 2) learning tower for the kitchen 3) soft play block set 4) rain boots for next rainy season 5) winter jacket 6) diapers I could use a few more things! 😄

Hi Mamas! How do you count how old your little one is? Do you count the number of weeks from the day they’re born or, for example, if my LO was born January 1st, is February 1st considered 1 month? So confused. Thanks for your help!

Just wanted to say that baby will come! It’s so hard when you see announcements and you just want to share in that joy, believe me I get it… I was almost 42 weeks with my first! My advice (and I get it’s frustrating advice) but you’ll look back at the quiet time with envy! Put your feet up or get out of the house ...

I keep seeing posts asking for sugar free ‘baby’ birthday cakes for 1st birthdays. Is this a thing we’re supposed to do?! I know we should limit sugar but it’s their birthday, surely just a normal cake is okay with the small amount they’ll actually have? I’m now second guessing the cake I’ve spent hours putting thou...

My girls birthday was March 20th. During the same time my husband was switching jobs so we couldn’t afford have her first birthday party. Is it too late to do it? Does it matter? I feel guilty that it’s so late.

Hi girls, my 2 kids birthdays are within 3 weeks, I have an 8 month old as well as my 3 year old , I was thinking of an event for my soon to be 4 year old, could I merge the 2 birthdays together? 2 diff cakes etc? Money is a bit tight as I’m on SMP so I don’t think I’ll manage a party each!

Went into labor on my due date April 15th and he was born the morning of the 16th. My second home birth and this time in the water. I was so anxious about how I could possibly love another child, especially a boy after having my daughter, but I am smitten once again 🥰

What is everyone having? This is baby #4 and soooo happy it’s a girl!!🩷 already have 2 boys and 1 girl

What are you planning for your LOs first birthday if you DON’T plan to have a big party? I think our families are expecting us to throw a big do for our baby, but I don’t have any desire to. I personally find it unnecessary, they’re 1 years old. a waste of money, energy. Maybe because I love intimate moments, my pri...

Hey guys! My LO turns 1 next week; we’ll be having a party over the weekend. But I would love some ideas for a fun day out for her actual birthday. I’m West Midlands based. I was thinking softplay, theres some nice ones around. But welcome to other ideas!

Baby boy was due 29th April but decided he wanted to come on 5th.. 12 days old already x

5 boys and our first daughter - and shes absolutely perfect just like all her brothers. 5lb 8 of pure stunning

How tall is your 27 month old?

Is it just me or is anyone else dying for another little one! I honestly cannot wait i plan on trying again text June time🤣🫣 we love her so much and shes just brought so much happiness to our lives 😭🥰

So I’ve bought a last minute holiday off someone and we go on May 6th. I applied for my daughter’s passport online yesterday and sent her birth certificate off today. Just wondered how long other people have waited for their baby’s first passport as I’m literally PRAYING it comes in time😩🤣 Also what did everyone…

Is this anyone else’s 2nd baby? I’m so happy but looking at my current “baby” who is turning 3 in August and thinking omg 😧 also I can’t remember anything really?
