Hello I’m a FTM and I have started adding whole milk into my babies breast milk bottles he seems to use the bathroom ok and he likes it. I’m starting to pump as of today every 4hrs.

Anyone elses toddler going through this phase, it’s exhausting 🙈

Little one is a week and a half away from 5 months and currently on 6 ounces of formula every 3 hours and one night feed. Usually amounts to between 850-950ml over a day. Last 2 days he's been absolutely ravenous, he's getting hungry 10-15 minutes earlier than 3 hours, guzzling it down, screeches if I dare take th...

My toddler (2.5 years old) fights to fall asleep at night, it can take 2 hours or 2.5 hours for him to fall asleep, and he needs at 8 hour wake window to fall asleep after his nap. I feel like without the nap, he will fall asleep quickly, which I tried several times but when I do that, he treats his bedtime like ...

My LO had her jabs at 11:20 and has been asleep since 12. I woke her up to feed and she just cried, I changed her nappy and she went straight back to sleep. I know they can sleep after their jabs but she hasn't been this affected by them before. Should I just let her sleep and not wake her again or would you do our...

Appreciate that the guidelines say that formula should be discarded 2 hours after it’s made, but is there any harm to baby if this was longer? Sometimes my baby will only drink a couple of ounces and then want a top up a couple of hours later - can I get away with feeding her the same bottle or? (Obviously I want to...

I’m pregnant with my first baby and hoping to breastfeed, I have both of my nipples pierced. From what I’ve read you can just remove them during feeding and then replace them after.

I used to have a short shoulder length cut and decided to grow it out (which took nearly 3 years) but now I’m ready to go short again. I don’t want to regret it, but I never have time to style my hair as it is with a toddler. It’s so long and thick and usually just gets thrown back in a bun/clip. Help!!!

9 weeks pp and I still haven’t gotten my period but I’ve been cramps the past two weeks as if it is starting. Has anyone gotten it yet? Was it as bad as people say it is? I’m not breastfeeding and I know that can cause delay sometimes.

Not quite sure how to approach the situation, but i got a text from my sd mom saying she's no longer comfortable with my sd calling me mommy and has asked i correct her to my first name or some other nickname, when she's been fine with it for the past two years. A little background, I came into my sd life when she h...
