Anyone’s baby started teething yet? I have a suspicion my 10 week old is starting to. She’s constantly got her hand in her mouth and rubbing her gums. She’s started resisting sleep and won’t settle unless her hand is in her mouth. She spits out her dummy now and wants her hand instead

My boy is 18m soon to be 19m and he’s so fast now he’s almost running, I lost sight of him for like a second today in the shop and my heart sank and I shouted his name quite loud, my bf said that I’m embarrassing and need to stop this he said I’m like this when he falls over, like I will gasp and make a big deal but...

This man does not understand a thing about how pregnancy changes a woman’s typical body functions. I just called to make reservations for dinner which I wanted for 5-5:30 pm bc if I don’t eat by then I am STARVING.

Does anyone know?! I went to my health visitor drop in on Tuesday and we got to talking about dairy intolerance and food etc. She told me apparently I could get food on prescription for my 10 months old... I thought this was a little weird and I explained I am currently on maternity pay so I don't qualify for the h...

My boy is 4.5 month and has generally not been too “difficult” of a baby.. he hit the 4 month regression around 3ish months so night time sleep got worse, but he never had too bad of a witching hour or anything like that as a newborn. However in the last 2 weeks, it feels like he is just mad all the time. Anything I...

Sometimes I just feel like I don't want anyone to need me and to stop to-do lists constanty rolling through my head, I just want time on my own and quiet! I feel bad saying it because my husband does his best to help with everything but because he doesn't look after baby as much as I do, he still asks me questions a...

I was told to wait till he has teeth then I seen that it wasn’t and just got me confused. Also looking for more food ideas as well. He mostly has fruits, veggies, scrambled eggs, pancakes, baby oatm...

I have no one else and the kids are awake in the room and I don't want to make a scene in front of them. I do all the childcare, housework, lunches/dinners ect. 24/7. My grandad is basically on his last legs, we know it's coming soon but we don't know when. He doesn't have a lot of patience now so I go to see him wi...

When did everyone’s babies stop just playing with the food and actually eating bits? We’re 3 weeks in with finger food and my LG happily takes it to her mouth and picks it up well etc. but mostly just plays with it… I know food is for fun but getting a tiny bit frustrated wasting food every night 😂

Need to start leaving my LO with my husband so I can go to work. Anything to make sure this process is smooth? Feeling so stressed and anxious about this.

Hi ladies, I’m moving and I am going to give my kid a place space. Because I won’t be working for a little bit. I’m gonna need a TV in this room. I have a one year-old. Who likes to climb I’m trying to find a TV stand that is toddler friendly or something that can kind of take up the space underneath the mounted TV....

Is anyone else’s LO going though an extreme clingy phase?? Last 2 days I can’t even go to the toilet without telling her or asking if she wants to come because if she sees I’m gone she gets HYSTERICAL 😩. She’s fine and well, sleeping and eating well but I do think back molars are coming in…

Would anyone mind posting their 9 month olds evening meals? I'm so worried I'm over feeding my LO

What are you getting for your boys? Is ball pit/soft play sofa/montessori climbing set a good idea?
